The Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO) was established as a non-profit corporation in 2012 with aims to promote worldwide research, education, prevention, clinical studies and optimal patient care in all aspects of hematologic malignancies and related disorders.
William G. Wierda, MD, of the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and colleagues, published the findings in Blood.
To date, the initiative has enabled access to the treatment for more than 300 patients across Armenia, Ethiopia, and Nepal, exceeding its original scope by about 150 patients.
The study’s authors, led by Lihua E Budde, MD, PhD, of City of Hope in Duarte, California, published the findings in the Journal of Hematology & Oncology.
From EHA 2026, Dr. Loretta Nastoupil interviews Dr. Georg Lenz on the phase 3 FRONTMIND study, a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that evaluated tafasitamab plus lenalidomide and R-CHOP versus R-CHOP for first-line treatment of patients with high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
…the approval is based on results from the Phase 3 EXCALIBER-RRMM trial, which showed iberdomide significantly improved minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative complete response (CR) rates.
The improved post-transplantation outcomes are likely due to the introduction of novel therapeutic agents, alongside advances in donor selection, conditioning regimens, and graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis, the authors suggested.
