    HealthTree Podcast for AML: Gabriela Hobbs, MD, Massachusetts General Hospital

    Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the only curative option for patients battling acute myeloid leukemia. However, a significant number of patients will relapse after transplant. Innovative research and therapies are needed in order to improve outcomes in AML patients.  The drug Jakafi (ruxolitinib), a kinase inhibitor, is being explored in a current clinical trial as it may help reduce the risk of relapse. Other therapies such as pre-emptive donor lymphocyte infusions, hypomethylating agents and FLT3 inhibitors combined with donor lymphocyte infusions, CAR T-cell and CAR-NK cells are some of the options being explored. Join us live on Wednesday, October 5th at 1:30 pm EST to hear from Dr. Gabriela Hobbs with Massachusetts General Hospital who will be discussing her clinical trial using Jakafi (ruxolitinib) after allogeneic stem cell transplant as well as other therapies to reduce relapse risk. There will be time at the end of the show to ask Dr. Hobbs your questions directly! Thank you to our episode sponsor, Bristol Myers Squibb.

    HealthTree Podcast for AML: Eytan Stein, MD, Memorial Sloan Kettering

    The IDH mutation can be found in approximately 20% of adult AML cases. Isocitrate dehydrogenase isoform 1 and 2 or IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are typically found in older AML patients and have an intermediate risk profile, with IDH2 being the more common of the two. There has been the development of targeted therapy drugs, such as IDH inhibitors to address these mutations. Ivosidenib (Tibsovo) and enasidinib (Idhifa) are IDH inhibitors and were approved for use as monotherapy in relapsed/refractory AML with IDH1 and IDH2 mutations, respectively. Clinical trials have been exploring the use of combinations with other drugs such as azacitidine and venetoclax to improve efficacy and optimize outcomes. Ivosidenib (Tibsovo) was just recently approved by the FDA in May 2022 for use in combination with azacitidine for newly diagnosed patients age 75 years or older and not fit for intensive chemotherapy. In this podcast, Dr. Eytan Stein will tell us about IDH mutations, the current treatment options, as well as the recent FDA approval of ivosidenib (Tibsovo) and what that means for the treament landscape. Thank you to our episode sponsor, Bristol Myers Squibb.

    HealthTree Podcast for AML: Dr. Jane Liesveld, University of Rochester

    The FLT3 gene mutation is the most common mutation seen in acute myeloid leukemia patients. It occurs in up to 37% of adult patients with AML. FLT3 mutations have been harder to treat with poor outcomes, however, with combination therapies using targeted drugs such as FLT3 inhibitors, outcomes have greatly improved. The development of FLT3 inhibitors has progressed in recent years and there are currently two FDA-approved options - gilteritinib and midostaurin. There are also many additional FLT3 inhibitors in development such as crenolanib and quizartinib, which leads us to the question of which FLT3 inhibitor should be used for each person and when is the appropriate time to add it to treatment? Join us live on June 29th at 2 PM EST to hear from Dr. Jane Liesveld from the University of Rochester who will discuss the different FLT3 inhibitor options currently available, as well as the ones in development. She will also share research with us from a clinical trial she is leading comparing midostaurin and crenolanib when given following induction, consolidation and bone marrow transplantation. During the show, Dr. Liesveld will discuss the differences between FLT3 inhibitor options and what has been learned from previous FLT3 inhibitor trials. Come learn all about the FLT3 mutation, FLT3 inhibitors and have the opportunity to directly ask Dr. Liesveld your questions. Thank you to our episode sponsor, Abbvie.

    Harnessing the Immune System in Relapsed AML: Dr. Reagan, Rhode Island Hospital

    The use of the immune system to treat patients with AML is being heavily pursued as a strategy to more effectively fight AML and give patients with relapsed or refractory disease a better chance at achieving remission or a cure. Immunotherapy in the form of allogeneic stem cell transplant has been a foundation of curative therapy in AML since the 1970s. While the effectiveness and tolerability of stem cell transplant has improved over the years, significant limitations still exist, warranting the development of new and improved immunotherapy options.  Join us live September 30th at 12 PM Central to learn from Dr. John Reagan, an AML expert from Rhode Island Hospital, about what steps you can take if you have relapsed or refractory AML. He will be discussing what immunotherapy is, it’s current use in AML and his open clinical trial looking at whether the FDA approved drug Gemtuzumab, followed by an infusion of blood cells called leukocytes from a donor, can stimulate the immune system to potentially fight AML.
