glad to be a part of this effort led by @canersaygin.bsky.social looking at the potential therapeutic role of MCL1 inhibition in T-cell ALL www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Voting has started for #ASH26 elections. We are rooting for Dr Wendy Stock running for Vice President! She is an incredible hematologist, researcher, mentor, sponsor and advocate. She has made enormous impact on so many lives and careers, including mine. So please vote!

I was very inspired by the @abc7chicago.bsky.social @leukemiaresearch.bsky.social Gibbons 5K Run Event this morning! It was a blast to engage with our patients, families and friends to discuss leukemia research and raise money for this critical mission. abc7chicago.com/post/32nd-an...

How should we incorporate molecular data in treatment decisions for ALL? It is time to pay more attention to genetic heterogeneity of adult ALL before we decide therapy. Targeted therapies are rapidly emerging, and replacing chemo in ALL. Our review at Blood Cancer Discovery is out today! Link👇

We are very excited to share our work investigating menin inhibition in T-ALL, led by Kate Shimamoto and Arda Karaoglu, just published in Mol Cancer Therapeutics. We found that high p-MEF2C S222 can predict menin inhibitor response, better than HOX gene expression levels, in T-ALL. rb.gy/oroosm

In a recent study, Caner Saygin, MD and team examined a large group of adults with a rare, aggressive form of leukemia called TP53-mutant ALL and found key genetic changes that guide doctors to predict which pts may face more serious outcomes. @uchicagomedicine.bsky.social ow.ly/cFsz50YgL2s

InO + TKI has robust activity but limited toxicity when drugs are given sequentially. Great option for older adults with Ph+ ALL in frontline.

In a new study, @canersaygin.bsky.social and colleagues show that TP53-mutant ALL is a high-risk, chemo-resistant subtype with poor survival, highlighting the need for tailored strategies. ow.ly/lvwo50WHJIr

Very excited to share our paper investigating the evolution of therapy-related CH in myeloma pts treated w/ or w/o LEN. Can we predict the risk for second blood cancer in myeloma pts? Grateful for the collaboration with @uchicagocancer.bsky.social myeloma program. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
