ASH 2022: Dr. James Blachly Discusses Results from a Phase 1/2 Dose Escalation and Expansion Study Evaluating MS-533, a Novel and Selective Protein Kinase C-Beta Inhibitor in Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (SLL)

MS-553, a protein kinase C-beta (PKCß) inhibitor, is an exciting new agent in a yet-to-be-approved class of drugs that target an area of the B-cell receptor pathway independent of Bruton tyrosine kinase (BTK) and phospholipase C gamma 2 (PLCy2) mutations which confer resistance to BTK inhibitors.

FDA Announces Evusheld is Not Currently Authorized for Emergency Use in the U.S.

That decision was made because as the virus continued to mutate, now over 90% of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concerns (VOC) circulating in the U.S. are no longer believed to be neutralized by the monoclonal antibody (mAb) cocktail.

ASH 2022: Dr. Christine Ryan on Triple Combination Acalabrutinib, Venetoclax, and Obinutuzumab for High-Risk Patients with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia or Small Lymphocytic Lymphoma (CLL / SLL)

In this ongoing trial, the triple combination therapy with acalabrutinib, venetoclax, and obinutuzumab is highly active and has thus far produced durable remissions as a frontline treatment in patients with TP53-aberrant chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), which was generally well tolerated with a low 2.9% incidence of atrial fibrillation with none of the more serious  abnormal ventricular heart irregularities seen.
