SOHO 2024 | Advice for community physicians managing and treating patients with WM

Jorge Castillo, MD, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, MA, discusses recommendations for community physicians treating patients with Waldenström’s macroglobulinemia (WM), emphasizing the importance of correct diagnosis. Dr Castillo explains that asymptomatic patients should not be treated due to the potential toxicity of therapies, with chemoimmunotherapy and BTK inhibitors (BTKis) being the primary options for those who need treatment. He also highlights the importance of considering clinical trials for all patients with WM. This interview took place at the Twelfth Annual Meeting of the Society of Hematologic Oncology (SOHO 2024) congress in Houston, TX.
