Dr. McCloskey discusses the limitations of current treatment options for BPDCN, as well as the emerging research and data that are most anticipated in the field.

Dr. McCloskey discusses the general principles and practices for monitoring and mitigating adverse events, particularly capillary leak syndrome (CLS), in BPDCN patients treated with systemic agents like tagraxofusp.

Dr. McCloskey discusses the recent clinical trial results, such as the CADENZA trial, on the efficacy and safety of tagraxofusp in BPDCN patients.

Dr. McCloskey discusses the appropriateness of the initial therapy (tagraxofusp) based on NCCN guidelines, as well as the benefits and limitations of current treatment regimens for BPDCN.

Overview of BPDCN

Dr. McCloskey provides a brief overview of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN), including the clinical hallmarks of the disease and the challenges in recognizing and diagnosing this rare condition.

Video 3 - "Optimizing Treatment, Biomarkers, and Chemotherapy for Patients with nmCRPC"

Neal Shore, MD, FACS, outlines his treatment approach, which favors single agents over combination therapies, and incorporates bone-health drugs, vitamins, nutrition guidance, and exercise recommendations to support patients. While PSA remains a valuable biomarker in prostate cancer, he notes that ctDNA and aspects of MRD are gaining importance, although not yet widely adopted.

Video 2 - "Addressing Risks and Challenges in the Standard of Care for Patients with nmCRPC"

Neal Shore, MD, FACS provides an analysis of the ARAMIS, SPARTAN, and PROSPER trials, which demonstrate improved survival in high-risk non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer through early intervention, highlighting the potential for preventing disease progression based on the data from these pivotal studies.

Video 1 - "A 62-Year-Old Woman with HR+ HER2-low Metastatic Breast Cancer and Lung, Liver, and Bone Metastases and Using Biomarker Testing to Guide Treatment Selection"

Virginia Kaklamani, MD, DSc, presents a case of metastatic breast cancer, initially responsive to first-line aromatase and CDK4/6 inhibitors, that progressed after 32 months. She explores using biomarker testing to identify ESR1 and other actionable mutations potentially causing endocrine resistance, guiding the transition to second-line therapy.

The panel discusses the future of ctDNA in clinical practice as well as sequencing decisions that may lead to adjuvant therapy in addition to neoadjuvant and/or perioperative therapy.

Patrick Forde, MBBCh, discusses CheckMate-816 study results, including the high pathological complete response rates within 6 weeks of immunotherapy reported in the trial's third arm.
