Low-Dose Dexamethasone Better For Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma Treated With Lenalidomide

REFERENCE: 2007 Chemotherapy Foundation Symposium
DAVID VESOLE, St Vincent’s Comprehensive Cancer Center, New York
In newly diagnosed multiple myeloma, lenalidomide plus a lower dose of dexamethasone appears to be favorable for patients, and with a one-year survival rate of 96%, it could be the best result seen in this setting. During the New York symposium Derek Thorne put questions to David Vesole about his findings and their clinical implications.

Young Adults With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Better Success With Pediatric Regimens

REFERENCE: 2007 Chemotherapy Foundation Symposium
DANIEL DEANGELO, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston
Young adults with ALL may be treated more effectively by using chemotherapy regimens traditionally reserved for children, rather than by using therapies recommended for adults. This came out of a talk in New York given by Daniel DeAngelo, and he later discussed with Peter Goodwin his views and preliminary results from an ongoing trial, including dose-intense asparagine depletion therapy.
