David P. Steensma, MD, on Myeloid Neoplasms: Results From a First-in-Human Trial of a Splicing Modulator
2019 ASH Annual Meeting & ExpositionDavid P. Steensma, MD, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses early study findings on H3B-8800, which decreased the need for red blood cell or platelet transfusion in 14% of patients. This splicing modulator, used in the trial to treat patients with hematologic malignancies, also showed safety, dose-dependent target engagement, and a predictable pharmacokinetic profile (Abstract 673).
