This accredited CME activity, led by Rachael Grace, MD, Associate Professor, Harvard Medical School, highlights the latest research about pyruvate kinase (PK) deficiency presented at ASH 2021 and provides expert analysis of its clinical relevance for busy members of the care team to help them care for patients they may encounter with this rare condition.
PK deficiency is a rare blood disease due to mutations in the PKLR gene that leads to decreased PK levels. Current therapies options are supportive (transfusions, iron chelation, splenectomy) but treatments are in development to better address the pathophysiology of this rare condition.
Supported by an educational grant from Agios Pharmaceuticals.
