“Refractory” mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) refers to when the disease does not respond to treatment, or the response does not last long. Dr. Jacqueline Barrientos recently led a discussion with Dr. Peter Martin and Dr. Michael Wang, in which the panel reviewed clinical trial data for new later-line therapies, how to identify higher-risk patients, and what role minimal residual disease (MRD) may play in the future.
The panel sets the stage with a brief look at exciting front-line treatment advances coming out of ASH 2020 before reviewing promising data surrounding LOXO-305 and CAR-T agents in patients who had prior resistance to BTK inhibitors.
