However, for many patients, treatment requires the use of intensive anthracycline-based chemotherapy and radiotherapy, both of which are associated with significant long-term cardiovascular toxicity. As such, late cardiovascular disease is now one of the leading causes of premature morbidity and mortality among childhood cancer survivors. Recent advances over the past decade have refined the cardiotoxic potential of various chemotherapeutics, and ongoing work seeks to determine the efficacy of various cardioprotective strategies in children receiving active cancer therapy. The development of risk prediction models offers an additional strategy to define risk for both newly treated and long-term survivors. Current screening strategies are primarily based on echocardiography, although there is active research investigating methods to further optimize screening through myocardial strain, cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, blood biomarkers, and genetics, along with the cost-effectiveness of different screening strategies. Active research is also underway investigating the efficacy of prevention strategies for childhood cancer survivors who have completed cancer therapy. This ranges from the use of medications to mitigate potential pathologic ventricular remodeling to reducing adverse and modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (eg, hypertension, dyslipidemia, insulin resistance, physical inactivity, tobacco exposure), many of which may be more common in cancer survivors vs the general population and are often underrecognized and undertreated in relatively young adult-aged survivors of childhood cancer.</p>","PeriodicalId":12973,"journal":{"name":"Hematology.

The development of T-cell redirecting therapies, including bispecific T-cell engagers and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells, have transformed the outcome of triple-class exposed relapsed and refractory MM (RRMM). B-cell maturation antigen (BCMA) has proven to be an important target in MM, and BCMA-directed CAR T cells have shown unprecedented efficacy with a prolonged duration of response in a population with advanced RRMM, leading to the approval of 2 different BCMA CAR T-cell products. Still, and in contrast to prior experience in the field of CD19-directed CARs, no plateau has been seen in the survival curves, and relapses continue to occur. Therefore, further improvement is needed. Early use in the course of the disease as well as of next- generation CARs may further augment the efficacy of these therapies. In this review we address current state-of-the-art approved BCMA-directed CAR T-cell therapy in RRMM, as well as potential future developments focused on optimizing patient care and novel CAR designs.</p>","PeriodicalId":12973,"journal":{"name":"Hematology.

This is because plasma VWF levels in type 1 VWD, especially those with levels closer to 50 IU/dL, overlap with the general population. Assessment is further complicated by increased plasma VWF levels in response to physiologic stressors or aging. Diagnosis of those with type 1 VWD with plasma VWF levels 30 to 50 IU/dL (previously referred to as \"low VWF\") requires expert assessment of bleeding phenotype as well as an understanding of the limitations of both bleeding assessment tools (BATs) and laboratory testing.

Initial treatment with corticosteroids is highly effective, with over 85% of patients responding but with less than one-third maintaining that response upon weaning. Subsequent rituximab administration in those failing corticosteroids provides complete remission in over 75% of patients and may be long-lasting. Over 50% of patients failing rituximab respond to erythropoiesis-stimulating agents or immunosuppressive agents. Splenectomy is best deferred if possible but does offer long-term remission in over two-thirds of patients.
