Learning Objectives
• Review clinical data and individual case studies to determine where CAR T-cell therapy might be appropriate in the treatment of adult and pediatric patients with leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma.
• Discuss the management of cytotoxicity of CAR T-cell therapy.
Target Audience
Hematologists, oncologists, and other members of the healthcare team who treat or manage patients with hematologic malignancies.
Statement of Need
It is critical that clinicians managing patients with acute leukemia and other hematologic malignancies are cognizant of exciting breakthroughs and are also able to integrate recent progress into practice. However, given the overwhelming influx of data, it is no surprise that many hematology professionals face difficulties in identifying the most relevant findings for clinical practice. Hematologists are unable to stay abreast of the latest evidence on investigational agents. Educational programs are thus crucial to address this important professional practice gap.
