Tec-Dara could represent a new standard of care for relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma

Patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma who received a combination of teclistamab, a bispecific monoclonal antibody, and daratumumab, a CD38-directed monoclonal antibody, were 83% more likely to be alive without disease progression compared with those who received standard second-line therapies at a median of nearly 35 months of follow-up, according to the results of a new trial presented at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition.

Pirtobrutinib shows superior outcomes compared to common first-line combination treatment for CLL/SLL

In a new trial, the Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor pirtobrutinib increased the rate of survival without disease progression and was well tolerated with a more favorable safety profile when compared with bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) in patients with previously untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL).

TXA reduces the need for blood transfusion in patients undergoing high-risk non-cardiac surgery

When hospitals were randomly assigned to treat patients undergoing higher-risk non-cardiac surgery with tranexamic acid (TXA) or a placebo, patients who received TXA needed significantly fewer blood transfusions and saw no increase in potentially life-threatening blood clots (thrombosis) after 90 days of follow-up, according to research presented at the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition.

Why female athletes need injury prevention rules built for women, not men

This International Olympic Committee consensus synthesised evidence from over 600 studies to develop 56 injury prevention recommendations tailored to female, woman and girl athletes. It concludes that reducing injury risk requires a whole sports system approach that integrates training, policy, environment and culture, not exercise alone.

Timing of genetic mutation dictates childhood leukemia aggressiveness

A team of researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai has uncovered why children with the same leukemia-causing gene mutation can have dramatically different outcomes: it depends on when in development the mutation first occurs.
