Grateful to SOHO for an enriching experience and the chance to connect with some of the brightest stars in oncology. Success is built on great mentorship— thank you, Dr. Chandler Park, M.D., F.A.C.P., for always believing in me!”

Karun Neupane:

“Early relapse is the new NDMM- patients with early relapse MM usually can have remission similar to or even longer than their first one, hence we should aim for deep response while treating early relapse MM.

Marah Alzubi:

“Was an honor to attend the plenary session on ‘BCL2 Inhibition in CLL: From Undruggable Target to Standard of Care’. Dr. John Seymour gave such an inspiring talk and I’ll be sharing my top three takeaways in the next tweet.

  • Venetoclax is effective in indicing apoptosis even in TP53 mutated cells
  • Venetoclax was approved relatively quickly highlighting the high effectivity of the drug and the bcl2 target
  • MCL-1 overExpression can cause venetoclax resistance.”

Nitin Jain:

“John Seymour giving Michael Keating plenary award lecture at SOHO24.

First patient ever treated with venetoclax previously called ABT-199 was in June 2011 in Australia with Seymour.

Amazing how this drug has changed the practice of leukemia care, especially Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML).”
