2024 CASH丨Professor RongFu  : Progress in the Study of Hematological Toxicity Related to CAR-T Therapy

Immunotherapy has recently emerged as a focal area in the research of hematologic oncology. The advancement of genetic engineering and molecular biology, coupled with deeper insights into the mechanisms of cancer, has led to the widespread clinical adoption of Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell (CAR-T) therapy. This approach has demonstrated remarkable efficacy in treating refractory or relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia, aggressive lymphomas, and multiple myeloma, significantly improving patient outcomes. However, challenges persist, notably in patients who do not respond to treatment, relapse shortly, or experience severe adverse reactions like cytokine release syndrome. The pursuit to mitigate the side effects of CAR-T therapy and enhance its long-term clinical effectiveness is ongoing, filled with both challenges and opportunities.
Professor Jun Zhu: Focus on the unmet needs of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and provide personalized diagnosis and treatment for patients

Professor Jun Zhu: Focus on the unmet needs of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and provide personalized diagnosis and treatment for patients

 Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a typical B-cell lymphoma, characterized by high invasiveness and heterogeneity. After standard first-line treatment, some patients still face relapse/refractory issues and relatively poor prognosis. Recently, the "7th Beijing Thrombosis and Hemostasis Conference and the 5th Beijing Hematology Oncology and Immunology Summit Forum" was successfully held in Beijing from March 1st to 3rd, 2024. After the conference, Oncology Frontier - Hematology Frontier specially invited Professor Jun Zhu from Peking University Cancer Hospital to share the unmet needs of DLBCL patients and their treatment strategies.
Professor Hu Zhou: Rational selection of treatment strategies to improve the quality of life for patients with tumor-related thrombocytopenia

Thrombocytopenia is a common hematologic adverse reaction to cancer treatment, which can increase the risk of bleeding, prolong hospitalization, increase medical costs, and in severe cases, lead to death. Recently, the "7th Beijing Thrombosis and Hemostasis Conference and the 5th Beijing Hematology Oncology and Immunology Summit Forum", hosted by the Chinese Society of Immunology Hematology Branch and organized by the National Clinical Research Center for Hematologic Diseases-Peking University Institute of Hematology and Beijing Hospital of Peking University, was held successfully in Beijing from March 1st to 3rd, 2024. After the conference, Oncology Frontier - Hematology Frontier invited Professor Hu Zhou from Henan Cancer Hospital to share the diagnosis and treatment progress of tumor-related thrombocytopenia.

Professor Xiaohui Zhang: From running behind to leading the world in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in China | The 13th National Conference on Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation of the Chinese Medical Association

As spring arrives, the 13th National Conference on Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation of the Chinese Medical Association, hosted by the Chinese Medical Association and organized by the National Clinical Research Center for Hematologic Diseases-Peking University Institute of Hematology, was grandly held in Beijing from March 1st to 2nd. This conference focused comprehensively on hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, bringing together many renowned experts in the field of hematology from both domestic and international arenas. Centered around the basic and clinical research of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the conference covered various topics including advancements in transplantation indications, new transplantation models, prevention and treatment strategies for transplantation complications and relapse, progress in basic research, and transplantation-related clinical trials. During the conference, Oncology Frontier - Hematology Frontier had the honor to interview Professor Xiaohui Zhang from Peking University People's Hospital, who shared the significant progress made in the field of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in China in recent years.
