In this series, Drs. Nabil Saba and Barbara Burtness review best practices for the use of immune checkpoint therapies in the treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. They discuss optimizing first-line immunotherapeutic regimens, using biomarkers to determine response to immunotherapy, managing immune-related adverse events, and overcoming barriers to equitable care.

While managing patients with myelofibrosis, there are certain indications that it may be time to switch therapies. And working with your patient will help with a timely and seamless transition. To learn more about these best practices, join Dr. Charles Turck as he speaks with Dr. Justin Arnal, Clinical Coordinator of Hematology at Atrium Health Specialty Pharmacy Service in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Dr. Jerry Spivak, Emeritus Professor Medicine at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

After assessing the severity of anemia in patients with myelofibrosis, it’s important to work with them to select the best intervention. Having a personalized approach to treatment and management could have a beneficial impact on the overall quality of life of your patient. Tune in with Dr. Charles Turck for insights and experiences from real-life patient cases with Dr. Justin Arnal, Clinical Coordinator of Hematology at Atrium Health Specialty Pharmacy Service in Charlotte, North Carolina, and Dr. Jerry Spivak, Emeritus Professor of Medicine at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

Due to a high prevalence of anemia in myelofibrosis, significant challenges could occur when diagnosing patients. But making a timely and accurate diagnosis is key, along with ensuring we’re using the best therapeutic strategies. Learn more with Dr. Jennifer Caudle as she speaks with Dr. Douglas Tremblay, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Normally, when a patient is newly diagnosed with myelofibrosis, the anemia is from the disease. And it’s important to treat these patients with an individualized treatment plan as this could have a significant positive impact on their quality of life and outcome. To learn more, dive in with Dr. Charles Turck as he speaks with Dr. Prithvi Bose, Professor in the Department of Leukemia at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center.

Myelofibrosis is a heterogeneous disease and different hematologic manifestations, like anemia and thrombocytopenia, are variable based on the patients themselves. It might even be rare to see patients who experience myelofibrosis the same. So to take a deep dive into the treatment paradigm of this disease is Dr. Jennifer Caudle who will be speaking with Dr. Douglas Tremblay, Assistant Professor of Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.

Due to its strong response rates and manageable adverse events, CAR T-cell therapy is now considered the standard-of-care treatment for B-cell lymphomas in the second-line setting, which could lead to better outcomes for patients. Learn more about the efficacy and safety profile of CAR T-cell therapy with Dr. Jennifer Caudle and Dr. Sarah Rutherford, Assistant Professor of Medicine in the Division of Hematology-Oncology at Weill Cornell Medicine.
