Evaluation of Gemtuzumab Ozogamicin and Anthracycline Dosing for Favorable Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Gemtuzumab ozogamicin (GO) is a CD33-targeting antibody-drug conjugate approved for the treatment of CD33-positive de novo and relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Subset analyses have demonstrated improved clinical outcomes in patients with favorable-risk disease. It is unclear whether the addition of GO to cytarabine and anthracycline chemotherapy (7+3) improves clinical outcomes compared with other conventional regimens for AML.

Clinician and administrator perspectives on outpatient administration of ciltacabtagene autoleucel in relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma.

Introduction: Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy (CAR T therapy) is a treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma that has led to unprecedented treatment outcomes. Among CAR T therapies available, ciltacabtagene autoleucel (cilta-cel) is a good candidate for outpatient administration due to its generally predictable safety profile. There are multiple advantages of outpatient administration of cilta-cel, including reduced healthcare burden, expanded access, and patient autonomy.

Real-world analysis of tumor lysis syndrome in patients started on venetoclax combination for acute myeloid leukemia.

Introduction: Venetoclax is utilized with low-dose cytarabine or a hypomethylating agent for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia. Clinical trials report a risk of tumor lysis syndrome and the package insert recommends a venetoclax dose ramp-up at the initiation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the risk of tumor lysis syndrome in a large population of patients with acute myeloid leukemia outside of a clinical trial and evaluate the incidence of hospital-acquired complications during inpatient ramp-up.
