The National Marrow Donor Program/Be The Match is now offering a new CME activity for hematologists/oncologists who treat CLL or MCL. This program was originally presented at a live symposium preceding the 2013 ASH (American Society of Hematologists) Annual Meeting.
A Case-Based Approach to CLL and MCL: Novel Therapies and Transplant Options explores challenging questions with evolving therapies for patients with CLL and MCL, such as:
- What is the risk-adapted sequence for treatment of CLL?
- Which CLL patients can benefit from new therapies alone or followed by hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT)?
- What are the optimal therapeutic approaches for MCL using standard agents, novel approaches and HCT?
