Taking Action With Minimal Residual Disease: Technique, Role, and Utilization of MRD to Improve Outcomes in Patients With Hematologic Malignancies

Release Date: January 07, 2021
Expiration Date: January 07, 2022

Activity Overview

This online, on-demand archived webcast brings together renowned experts in the role of measurable (or minimal) residual disease (MRD) in optimal management of hematologic malignancies including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), multiple myeloma (MM), chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL), and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In this educational program, these experts will leverage a combination of brief didactic presentations followed by engaging panel discussion to help place advances in MRD assessment into the context of patient care. In addition to examining available and emerging strategies for MRD monitoring throughout the care continuum, the expert panel also will discuss updates in treatment strategies for hematologic malignancies.
