    Navigating the Dynamic Landscape of Stem Cell Transplantation

    In a cobranded episode between Oncology on the Go, hosted by CancerNetwork®, and the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT)’s program ASTCT Talks, Mitchell E. Horwitz, MD, highlighted key developments and ongoing initiatives related to allogeneic and cord blood transplantations among patients with different hematologic malignancies. The conversation touched upon the impact of omidubicel-onlv (Omisirge) on patient outcomes, current research on reducing the risk of graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) among transplantation recipients, and strategies for providing effective prophylaxis during treatment, among other topics.

    ASTCT Talks: GVHD in Pediatrics: Acute and Chronic Risk

    In this episode of ASTCT Talks, host Dr. Corey Cutler, MD, from Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, is joined by Dr. Pooja Khandelwal, MD (Cincinnati Children’s Hospital), Dr. Ben Watkins, MD (Tulane University), and Dr. Kenneth Cooke, MD (Johns Hopkins University) for an in-depth discussion on evolving strategies to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in pediatric transplant. The conversation explores how leading centers are approaching GVHD prophylaxis across a range of clinical scenarios, with a focus on improving both acute and chronic GVHD outcomes. Experts compare platform-based approaches — including post-transplant cyclophosphamide, calcineurin inhibitor–based regimens, abatacept, and graft manipulation — and discuss how these strategies influence long-term transplant success. Key topics include: Current approaches to reducing acute and chronic GVHD in pediatric patients.Tradeoffs between prevention platforms, including immune reconstitution and infection risk.Emerging data on novel strategies, such as vitamin A and extended co-stimulation blockade.The role of GVHD-free survival as a key endpoint in transplant outcomes.Ongoing challenges and unmet needs in preventing chronic GVHD.While advances in prophylaxis are helping to reduce GVHD incidence, chronic GVHD remains a significant clinical challenge, underscoring the importance of continued innovation across the prevention-treatment continuum. This episode was supported by an educational grant fromIncyte.

    Podcast: Exploring and Managing Gastrointestinal-Related CAR T-Cell Lymphomas

    In a special cobranded episode between Oncology on the Go, hosted by CancerNetwork®, and the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT)’s program ASTCT Talks, host Rahul Banerjee, MD, FACP, spoke with colleague Hitomi Hosoya, MD, PhD, about a study she and coauthors published in Blood. In their study, Hosoya and colleagues assessed the underlying mechanisms of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell–related lymphomas developing in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The study focused on a particular case involving a 50-year-old patient with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who developed T-cell lymphoma after receiving cellular therapy in the seventh-line setting.

    ASTCT Talks: Gene Therapy Today and Tomorrow

    Gene therapy is changing how clinicians care for patients with rare and genetic diseases, with more therapies moving from research into clinical use. In this episode, Dr. Nirali Shah is joined by Dr. Christy Duncan and Dr. Sung‑Yun Pai to talk through recent progress in the field and what it actually takes to deliver these treatments at the patient level. The discussion draws on their experience in transplant and genetic disease, covering both scientific advances and the operational challenges that come with implementing gene therapy — especially in complex and resource‑intensive settings.  Tune in for a conversation that covers: Recent developments in gene therapy, including in vivo approaches and newly approved treatmentsBarriers to broader use, including access, equity, and long-term monitoringWhat centers need to consider when building a gene therapy program, from workflows to team coordinationWhere things may be heading, including more individualized therapies and efforts to expand availabilityListen to the episode below or on your favorite app. Subscribe to ASTCT Talks and share this episode with your colleagues to keep the conversation going.

    Best Practice Considerations for Infection Prevention and Management Post-CAR T

    In this episode of ASTCT Talks, host Terri Lynn Shigle, PharmD(The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center; Pharmacy SIG Immediate Past-Chair), sits down with Zainab Shahid, MD (Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center; ID SIG Chair), and Gabriela Maron, MD (St. Jude Children’s ResearchHospital). As coauthors of the ASTCT Practice Guidelines, "American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Best Practice Considerations for the Prevention and Management of Infections After Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell Therapy for Hematological Malignancies," recently published in Transplantation and Cellular Therapy, they discuss the implementation of critical strategies for safeguarding CAR T recipients. The conversation explores the nuances of the manuscript,providing a practical perspective on translating these consensus recommendations into clinical operations. Assessing the Burden of Immunosuppression: Evaluating the cumulative risk factors that predispose CAR T recipients to infection, including heavy pretreatment and the effects of lymphodepletion.Prophylaxis Optimization: Critical considerations regarding the timing, selection, and duration of antimicrobial regimens in the post-CAR T setting.Managing Hypogammaglobulinemia: A pragmatic look at IVIG replacement strategies, balancing emerging clinical evidence with institutional protocols and global product shortages.Addressing Evidence Gaps: Insider insights into the expert panel’s deliberations on "grey areas," such as the management of CMV reactivation and optimal post-therapy vaccination schedules.The Pediatric-Adult Continuum: Ensuring that prevention and management strategies are robust and applicable across the full age spectrum of CAR-T recipients.This episode provides essential context for cliniciansseeking to move beyond the published guidelines and operationalize these bestpractices with greater precision and confidence.

    LIVE From ASH: Multiple Myeloma Treatment Redefined by Bispecific Antibodies and T-Cell Therapies

    In a special cobranded episode between Oncology On the Go and the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT)’s program ASTCT Talks, Rahul Banerjee, MD, FACP, a physician-researcher who specializes in multiple myeloma at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center, and Brooke Adams, PharmD, BCOP, a clinical pharmacist and transplant specialist at Orlando Health, break down practice‑changing data in multiple myeloma from the ASH Annual Meeting. The experts focus on bispecific antibodies and BCMA CAR T-cell therapies and close the discussion by reflecting on how data is redefining the treatment paradigm in multiple myeloma, raising possibilities of deep MRD negativity, treatment de-escalation, and prolonged drug holidays.
