Professors Huafeng Wang and Mikkael Sekeres Discuss ASH Guidelines Update for Elderly AML Patients and Its Implications for Treatment Pathways in China

On December 7th, local time, the highly anticipated session on the "Updated ASH Clinical Practice Guidelines on Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) in Older Adults" was successfully held at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting. This session was chaired by Professor Mikkael Sekeres, the lead expert of the ASH guidelines and Director of the Department of Hematology at Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center. To gain deeper insights into the key points of the guideline update and the emerging trends it reflects, Oncology Frontier- Hematology Frontier invited Professor Huafeng Wang from Zhejiang University School of Medicine’s First Affiliated Hospital to engage in a deep dialogue with Professor Sekeres.

From December 6–9, 2025, the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting was held in Orlando. As the world’s most influential and comprehensive academic event in hematology, ASH annually gathers tens of thousands of experts to present breakthroughs spanning basic research to clinical innovation. This year, the team led by Professor Jia Wei of Tongji Hospital, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, had seven studies accepted—one oral presentation and six posters—covering CAR-T therapy, multi-omics analysis and immunotherapy. These studies collectively illustrate a full-spectrum innovation pipeline from mechanistic discovery to translational clinical application. Hematology Frontier summarizes the key findings below and presents Professor Wei’s commentary on their broader significance.

From December 6–9, 2025, the 67th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting convened in Orlando, attracting tens of thousands of hematology experts worldwide. As the most influential international conference in the field, ASH showcases cutting-edge advances and breakthrough clinical findings each year. At this year’s meeting, an innovative study led by Dr. Wei Zhang of Lu Daopei Hospital was selected for poster presentation. The study introduced a novel loop-structured CD19/CD22 dual-target CAR-T therapy designed to overcome antigen escape and relapse—two major obstacles in B-cell malignancies. This approach offers renewed therapeutic hope for patients with refractory or relapsed B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). We invited Dr. Zhang to elaborate on this research.
