“Article of the Week Suggested by the BPDCN International Registry-Astghik Voskanyan
- Real world (RW) study of patients (pts) with relapsed or refractory (RR) blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) treated with tagraxofusp (TAG).
- TAG showed rapid, durable responses and a high response rate in RR BPDCN patients, leading to extended survival in a population with poor prognosis, where previous treatments have been less effective. These real-world findings support TAG as a treatment option for RR BPDCN patients.”
The North American BPDCN Consortium (NABC) is a collaborative group of multidisciplinary experts focused on advancing BPDCN care. Their main goals include increasing awareness, defining MRD testing, and exploring non-HSCT treatment approaches.
They aim to develop combination therapies, understand BPDCN’s pathobiology, address pediatric cases, and improve quality of life measurements. Additionally, the consortium seeks to create risk stratification tools, expand clinical trial access, and secure funding to support future research and treatment innovations in BPDCN.
