Previous Episode: DDX41 gene variant prevalence and AML/MDS risk, VITAL mAb treatment of light chain amyloidosis, and movement/neurocognitive toxicities after BCMA CAR T cell treatment

Next Episode: Gut microbiota diversity and mortality in pediatric allo-HSCT; C5 inhibition in atypical HUS; and pembrolizumab plus vorinostat in PD-1-refractory Hodgkin lymphoma

In this week's episode, we’ll discuss a phase two trial in patients with T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia treated with the inhibitor BNZ-1 to block receptor binding of IL-15, learn more about the outcomes of gene therapy for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, and discuss ways to mitigate inequity when prioritizing patients for CAR T-cell therapy.
