ASH 2022 | Current & emerging therapies for classic and variant HCL

Kerry Rogers, MD, The Ohio State University, Columbus, OH, gives an overview of advances in the treatment of classic and variant hairy cell leukemia (HCL). Dr Rogers explains that whilst purine nucleoside analogs such as cladribine and pentostatin with or without rituximab are the current standard of care (SOC) in HCL, there is a growing role for the use of other drugs such as vemurafenib and moxetumomab pasudotox in patients who do not benefit from purine analogs. In addition, Dr Rogers highlights the potential of BTK inhibitors in patients with variant HCL. This interview took place at the 64th ASH Annual Meeting and Exposition congress in New Orleans, LA.
