  25. Hairy Cell Leukemia (HCL): Treatment of Relapsed Disease (EHA2024)

    20 januari 2025 · 18 min

    Afspelen
    In this podcast, Prof Thorsten Zenz from University Hospital in Zurich, Switzerland, discusses the current approaches to treatment of relapsed hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Based on his personal journey as a hematologist interested in precision oncology, prof. Zenz summarizes the years of accumulating data and clinical experience to explain the treatment approach he often uses for his patients. Lees meer

    Thanks to the clear molecular target (V600E mutation of BRAF), treatment of classical hairy cell leukemia with BRAF inhibitors, such as vemurafenib, is an example of precision oncology that can result in deep responses. As combination of this treatment with anti-CD20 antibody leads to durable complete responses in most patients, Prof Zenz often uses this regime in his patients with refractory or relapsed hairy cell leukemia.

    However, as different countries have access to different treatment options, Prof Zenz also discusses the role, sequencing and combinations of other drugs, such as to purine analogs (i.e. cladribine), MEK inhibitors, BTK-inhibitors, Bcl-2 inhibitors (i.e. venetoclax) or recombinant CD22-targeting immunotoxin (i.e. moxetumomab). In light of emerging (although still limited) data on these drugs and questions about their optimal sequencing, guidelines are being developed by Hairy Cell Leukemia Foundation (HCLF) and EHA that aim to help the clinicians with making choices for their patients.

    This podcast is further enriched by insights from prof. Enrico Tiacci from University and Hospital of Perugia in Italy, who discovered that V600E mutation of BRAF is the key genetic lesion underlying hairy cell leukemia. Prof Tiacci shares his views on the treatment options and their sequencing, based on the clinical trials he conducted and his clinical experience.

    As an essential element for physiology of all living organisms, iron is involved in many vital processes, including our immune responses to infections. Since the pathogens themselves also depend on iron to survive, the resulting host/pathogen “battle” for iron is one of the key determinants of outcomes of most infectious diseases.

    Interestingly, this dependence of pathogens on iron may offer a much-needed solution for multidrug resistance (MDR) of microbes, which poses a significant and growing challenge for the global healthcare. Tune in, to hear about the novel “metallo-antibiotics” and other clinical developments based on accumulating data about role of iron in infections.

    Join us for this engaging debate on the future of acquired TTP (aTTP) treatment chaired by Dr. Eleni Gavriilaki from Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in Greece. This discussion features Prof. Marie Scully from University College London Hospital in UK and Prof. Paul Coppo from Saint-Antoine Hospital in Paris, France. The debate centers on whether therapeutic plasma exchange (PEX) combined with immunosuppression, long considered the standard treatment for acute aTTP episodes, has become obsolete with the advent of new therapies. Lees meer

    First Prof. Scully argues that plasmapheresis is indeed a thing of the past, citing its complexity and inherent safety concerns. Prof Scully predicts that the best alternative option will incorporate the use of recombinant ADAMTS13, caplacizumab and immunosuppression primarily with steroids and anti-CD-20 therapy.

    In contrast, Prof Coppo argues that a PEX-free strategy cannot be universally applied to all aTTP patients, regardless of clinical presentation and severity because there is insufficient data yet to support this approach, the availability of caplacizumab is not guaranteed.

    Tune in for this debate to hear further our experts’ views on the impact of treatment costs on availability and clinical decision making.
