Data from a couple of new molecules could be encouraging for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

In an interview with Pharmacy Times, Niko Andre, MD, PhD, global franchise head of hematology and immuno-oncology at AstraZeneca, discussed exciting new findings being presented at the American Society of Hematology 2021 Annual Meeting about adverse effects associated with acalabrutinib in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL).

Although this data is a little too new to be useful for pharmacists, Andre said data from a couple of new molecules could be encouraging for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Andre said he is excited to see the future of these programs.
