Pitfall… be aware of false positive PET at end of therapy for aggressive B cell lymphoma
These can be resolved with time. Doesn’t necessarily mean persistent disease.
Tricky…

CAR-T cells in ALL
-Good expansion even in patients with minimal or no MRD.
-Blina and InO are still effective after CAR-T failure.
-Clinical trials are evaluating CAR-T in the setting of MRD and as consolidation after induction immunotherapy.

Presenting the Emil J Freireich award to Hagop Kantarjian and Sagar Lonial kicks off the afternoon Society of Hematologic Oncology plenary on all. Freireich never received his due credit. Invented blood separator machine. First cancer fellowship program in the world.

The most exciting debate of #SOHO2023 (or maybe I am just becoming a Myeloma guy)?
Sagar Lonial from Winship Cancer Institute of Emory University and Angela Dispenzieri from Mayo Clinic Comprehensive Cancer Center throwing knockout punches on whether to treat or not to treat Smoldering Myeloma.
Making learning fun).

Love this first slide for limited-stage MZL! Starting with gastric MALT, H.pylori treatment works! But resolution of MZL can take 6-12 mos and may periodically see histologic changes over time. I prefer RT for H.pylori-neg.
