Managing chronic myeloid leukemia: a coordinated team care perspective.

Treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has seen dramatic progress in recent years with the development of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). To take maximum advantage of therapy with TKIs, compliance and good understanding of monitoring response to therapy are essential. We established a team that included a hematologist, a physician assistant (PA), and a nurse who work closely with a social worker, a pharmacist, and a research coordinator to assist patients throughout their journey with CML.

Phase II study of neoadjuvant weekly nab-paclitaxel and carboplatin, with bevacizumab and trastuzumab, as treatment for women with locally advanced HER2+ breast cancer.

Purpose: Neoadjuvant treatment with chemotherapy plus trastuzumab is standard care for women with locally advanced, HER2-positive (HER2(+)) breast cancer. HER2 has been shown to stimulate angiogenesis through vascular endothelial growth factor upregulation. We investigated the feasibility and efficacy of bevacizumab in combination with trastuzumab, nab-paclitaxel, and carboplatin as neoadjuvant therapy for women with locally advanced HER2(+) breast cancer.
