1/10 Venetoclax duration in #AML: toward a precision approach
Ven-HMA is standard therapy for older/unfit AML, but 2 questions remain unsettled:
https://t.co/v31e1TZxBh long should venetoclax be given within each cycle?
2.Can treatment eventually be stopped after a durable remission?
Increasingly, the answer may depend on genotype + depth of response, rather than one schedule for all.

Excited and proud to share our special issue on #Leukemia that @ljmedeirosMD & I put together for @Human_Pathology We brought together incredible experts to write about the latest in the field.
13 articles, each one #hemepath GOLD💎! 1/14🧵

While the world is debating FIFA rules, referee bias, and game-changing decisions, another frontline playbook has been evolving in Ph+ ALL:
potent TKI + early blinatumomab + MRD-guided transplant decisions. 🧵
Our new study from the Polyethnic-1000 initiative is out! We investigated how genetic ancestry relates to multiple myeloma biology and outcomes. Several interesting and potentially provocative findings. Great collaboration @MayoClinic@MSKCancerCenter@nyulangone@SylvesterCancer
Does HD-MTX ppx reduce CNS relapse even in ultra-high-risk LBCL? #lymsm
- >1900 pts, all CNS-IPI 5-6; testicular, renal/adrenal, breast; ≥3 EN sites
- 3-yr CNS relapse: 9.3% (no HD-MTX) v 8.1% (HD-MTX), adjusted HR 1.13 [0.82, 1.57]
- no diff in isolated CNS relapse: 5.9% v 5.7%
- no diff in relapse rates for any high-risk subtypes
- DHL/THL not included
End of HD-MTX ppx, although DHL/THL is still a question. cc @tobyeyre82@mattwilson2287

Presented at #ASCO26:
Among patients with previously treated metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, the RAS(ON) inhibitor daraxonrasib led to significantly longer overall survival and progression-free survival than chemotherapy. Full phase 3 RASolute 302 trial results: https://t.co/xwLWBZYRzq
@ASCO
Absolutely practice changing!! One of the most stunning developments in the treatment of patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer !! It is one of the rare moments in oncology which you will always remember ! Like the imatinib, trastuzumab presentations @ASCO#ASCO26@OncoAlert
The treatment landscape for AL #Amyloidosis has been transformed—but how do we assess prognosis and progression in the current era? We reviewed the current evidence on prognostic factors and biomarkers for hematologic and organ progression in this special report, out today in @BloodPortfolio. @Amyloidosis_ARC@YevgeniyBr@awechalekar@MathewMaurer@kristennhsu

#COMy2026#evangelosterpos summarizing one of most practice-changing (even if niche) data I’ve seen for bone-modifying agents in myeloma.
For moderate CKD, consider denosumab 60 mg not 120 mg to lower hypoCa.
Not randomized, but very reasonable given how severe hypoCa can be!
1/ 🧵 ANDROMEDA final analysis is practice-changing for newly diagnosed AL amyloidosis.
IMPORTANT tweets: 3/4 and 6 for clinicians who treats Amyloidosis
D-VCd = daratumumab + bortezomib/cyclophosphamide/dexamethasone.
With 61.4 months median follow-up, D-VCd improved depth of response, organ recovery, MOD-PFS, and OS. 🔥
