    This CME program, offered for in-person and virtual attendees, will focus on the management of follicular, mantle cell and Hodgkin lymphoma. Six investigators will serve as faculty and the program will be moderated by Dr Neil Love, president of Research To Practice (RTP). Prior to the program, RTP will recruit 15 investigators, who, in addition to the participating faculty, will be asked to complete a case-based survey intended to illuminate their general practice patterns. In addition, RTP will recruit 3 “non-faculty member” investigators to participate in video recorded interviews with Dr Neil Love in which they will provide an explanation/justification for their responses to this same survey and share the scientific rationale.

    At the live event, for each module, Dr Love will present results from the survey, followed by video excerpts from the non-faculty member interviews. The faculty panelists will then be asked to register their level of agreement/disagreement with their colleagues’ answers and provide perspectives on their own responses. Each faculty will deliver a brief PPT presentation focused on reviewing recently published research data and ongoing clinical trials. Clinicians in attendance will have the opportunity to provide feedback on the same survey and present their own questions for discussion.

    Choosing well and wisely when deciding on the management of CLL has never been more important. Modern therapeutic platforms based on BTKi and BCL2i have demonstrated efficacy against higher-risk disease, in the relapsed/refractory setting, and as combination or sequential strategies, and newer chemosparing combinations and non-covalent BTKi are poised to overcome challenges in CLL. How will these developments be used going forward, and is long-lasting disease suppression an achievable goal?

    Find out by joining an expert panel convened to take on the challenges of CLL and who will share real-world cases to provide guidance on how to implement modern treatment protocols and cover topics such as: choosing between continuous or fixed-duration first-line regimens; BTKi/BCL2i combination platforms; and sequential therapy with non-covalent BTKi options. In partnership with the CLL Society, these important topics will be framed by patient perspectives, including commentary from CLL survivors.

    This activity is supported by independent educational grants from AbbVie, Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Astellas, Kura Oncology, Inc., and Syndax.

    The modern management of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has changed dramatically in recent years as innovative therapeutics, including FLT3, IDH, and BCL2 inhibitors; novel radioimmunoconjugate approaches; and newer epigenetic and targeted therapeutics (eg, menin inhibitors), have overturned the largely cytarabine-based chemotherapy standard of patient care. Strategic treatment planning is now more important than ever to ensure the safe delivery of different therapeutic drug classes.

    To explore this “next level” of AML management, PeerView’s experts will use case-based Clinical Consult debates to illustrate how varying baseline patient features can alter treatment decisions and discuss strategies to leverage the fruits of new science to improve patient care. Each discussion will be supported by mini lectures covering current science and modern clinical decision-making strategies in a diversity of AML settings and patient presentations. Join us to achieve “next-level” care for your patients with AML!

    Myelofibrosis (MF) is a rare disease that has a significant impact on patient’s quality of life. While many remain symptom-free for years, ultimately symptoms impose a major burden. While Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors play an important role in treating MF, a variety of novel targeted therapies are in clinical development that have the potential to prevent/delay resistance to ruxolitinib, change the course of the disease, and advance patient outcomes. This interactive symposium will start by providing an overview of the challenges associated with current management from a physician’s perspective followed by an interview with a patient with MF to highlight the challenges that they face. We then continue with a deeper dive into the biological and genetic path of MF, as well as the path of epigenetic dysregulation fueling the development of epigenetic therapies. The session will end with a group discussion reviewing how these new developments may positively impact the evolving journey of patients with MF.

    Toward a Brighter Future for Preventing COVID-19 in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies: Leveraging the Power of Current Strategies and Next-Generation Agents

    This program is supported by AstraZeneca LP


    3:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m. Pacific time

    San Diego Convention Center
    Ballroom 20CD

    This CME activity is provided by Penn State College of Medicine and developed with our educational partner, PVI, PeerView Institute for Medical Education.

    This activity is supported by an independent educational grant from AstraZeneca LP.

    Hundreds of thousands of patients with hematologic malignancies in the United States must take medications that leave them immunocompromised. Though vaccinated, these patients have hundred-fold higher rates of serious breakthrough COVID-19 infections compared with healthy individuals because of inadequate responses to vaccination. Tixagevimab/cilgavimab lost its emergency use authorization as prevention for immunocompromised patients because of its lack of efficacy against newer variants. However, next-generation prevention agents are in development, including a new monoclonal antibody, AZD3152. Meanwhile prevention of COVID-19 for immunocompromised people is shifting to a more individualized approach, increasing the complexity of clinical decision-making.

    PeerView's expert faculty will discuss strategies to engage patients with elevated risk of serious COVID-19 infection in the development of customized prevention plans. In addition, they will explore approaches to overcoming real-time barriers to access and use of available options for prevention of serious COVID-19 illness.

    This CME-accredited program, offered for in-person and virtual attendees, will focus on the management of multiple myeloma (MM). Five investigators will serve as faculty and the program will be moderated by Dr Neil Love, president of Research To Practice (RTP). Prior to the program, RTP will recruit 15 clinical investigators, who, in addition to the participating faculty, will be asked to complete a case-based survey intended to illuminate their general practice patterns. In addition, RTP will recruit 3 “non-faculty” clinical investigators to participate in video recorded interviews with Dr Neil Love in which they will provide an explanation/justification for their responses to this survey and share the scientific rationale guiding their thinking.

    At the live event, for each module, Dr Love will present results from the case-based survey, followed by video excerpts from the non-faculty member interviews. The faculty panel will then be asked to register their level of agreement/disagreement with their colleagues’ answers and provide perspectives on their own responses. Each faculty member will also deliver a brief PPT presentation focused on reviewing recently published research data and ongoing clinical trials. Clinicians in attendance will have to complete the same survey and present their own questions for discussion.
