Academic Perspectives on Treatment Decisions for BPDCN
Author(s)Marlise R. Luskin, MD, MSCE
An expert discusses how, for younger/fitter patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN), treatment selection as a bridge to transplant is based on efficacy, toxicity, and response depth. Patient-specific (age, comorbidities) and systemic (drug access, center expertise) factors guide decisions. Emerging real-world evidence, such as Berning et al (ASH 2024), highlights CD123-targeted therapy’s role in optimizing response rates before allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT).

Video content above is prompted by the following:
- For patients with BPDCN who are younger/fitter, how do you determine which treatment options provide the greatest benefit as a bridge to transplant?
- What patient-specific and systemic/logistical factors influence your treatment choice?
- What are your thoughts on real-world evidence that evaluates response rates with CD123/consolidative allo-SCT in BPDCN (Berning et al, ASH 2024)?
