The goal of this activity is to bring together cancer care providers and members of the community—including patients and their caregivers—to gain an up-to-date understanding of blood cancers, including the state-of-the-art science behind them, their clinical management, ongoing translational research, and emerging therapies. The program will also provide perspectives on the impact cancer has on the lives of patients and families.
This conference will focus on multi-disciplinary care for patients with an acute leukemia. Specifically, clinician sessions will detail evidence-based treatment standards for acute leukemias, optimal use of multimodality treatments, current controversies in the field, and ongoing translational and clinical studies. The conference will partner national experts, community practitioners, and members of the community in order to enhance understanding and collaboration between these groups, and to foster better care for and communication with patients with hematologic malignancies.
