10ys of insights from treating pts with #CLL after venetoclax at @PeterMacCC & @TheRMH summarized in this latest review. Our approach to sequencing novel agents, venetoclax re-Rx and cellular therapies. Privilege to work with giants Prof Tam & Seymour

Great to see this in print! VenR is active in BTKi (and mostly chemo) exposed CLL, but most pts will develop PD during or shortly after 2y on VEN Time limited Rx a rarity in this context Appears comparable to PIRTO Lots of room for improvement here @Eddie_Cliff @victorshiyulin

Venetoclax-rituximab is active in patients with BTKi-exposed CLL, but durable treatment-free remissions are uncommon #researchletter #lymphoidneoplasia

Nice data! We’ve observed similar results in our Australian cohort. VenR achieved responses in cBTKi-exp, but a mPFS of 26m. Worse if p53 abn. Rx free remission with VenR post cBTKi is uncommon, and outcomes are modest Very different from chemo only exp pts as in MURANO

Dr. Samples (@LauraSamplesMD) will present her second poster today. Outcome of pts with #CLL who received venetoclax after failure of cBTKi. @fredhutch data. A very relevant clinical question. #ASH23

Cohen BRUIN #ASH23 #lymsm PIRTO for MCL with prior BTKi N=152, high risk Median LOT=3 30/60 (50%) TP53mut ORR 49% CRR 16% mPFS <6 months, still poor in TP53 unmut group Bit of a contrast to CLL, PIRTO really quite disappointing in this setting IMO

Ribrag #ASH23 MCL >60 or auto ineligible 1L Randomisation 1: RCHOP v RCHOP/RHAD – no PFS difference Randomisation 2: Len-R v R as maintenance – PFS better, no OS difference R2 definitely more toxic, infections & 2nd malignancies Seems clear to me – don’t add LEN to maintenance!

Looking forward to presenting our recent work from @TheDawsonLab at #ASH23 this afternoon! We use SPLINTR linage tracing to understand the clonal and transcriptional dynamics of the rare clones that contribute to B-ALL relapse after CAR-T

Feels like there is a subset of patients that benefit from the CPI+BTKi approach, but how do we identify them or, ideally, build on the regimen to do better? OS surprisingly good in this cohort despite modest efficacy... makes me wonder if this is a special/selected group

Tislelizumab+zanu in Richter's #ASH23: - 48 pts, 80% untreated for RT, 35% TP53mut - 7 possible irAEs (mostly ⬆️LFTs), 3 Gr5 infx - ORR 58% (CR 19%), mDOR NR - mPFS 10 mos (only 7 mos in ITT), mOS NR! Bridging to allo option? PFS still not great. #lymsm #leusm

Pretty impressive, particularly for BTKi/VEN exposed pts, for whom outcomes with 2nd target agent usually achieve mPFS ~24m and true time limited Rx uncommon Is the best place for doublets/triplets as next Rx after 1st targeted agent? May be better than doing this for everyone..

Moskowitz #ASH23 Ruxo for RR T-LGL Seems highly effective in pts with STAT3 mut Correlative data suggest STAT3mut T cells drive ^ JAK/STAT in the myeloid compartment, and ruxo is acting here to improve disease. V interesting! Could be a nice option for some tricky cases…

PD1 before ASCT retrospective #ASH23: - 981 pts (!!), 20% PD1+/-BV preASCT - superior PFS if got PD1 (vs BV or chemo alone), also in MV model - no difference in OS Huge cohort and I try to give CPI to all R/R cHL prior to ASCT. #lymsm
