ESH How to Diagnose and Treat meetings are disease-specific meetings that address up to date diagnostic and clinical management which is greatly facilitated by presentation and discussion of real clinical cases. Intensive interaction between the speakers and participants will be helpful in spreading knowledge. Novel and still evolving insights into the biology and diagnosis of acute myeloid leukaemias (AMLs) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemias (ALL), has resulted in new drug approvals and new therapeutic options to treat newly-diagnosed as well as relapsed/refractory disease. Recently updates on prognostication and classification of acute leukaemias have been published which will be discussed in various sessions. Chairs: Hervé Dombret, Christoph Röllig, Wendy Stock

The programme of this “How to Diagnose and Treat: Acute Leukaemias” includes genomic analysis and cutting-edge technics in routine diagnosis, targeted therapies and standard of care treatments allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) transplantation and innovative immunotherapies, as well as diagnosis and management of rare acute leukaemia subtypes. Clonal hematopoiesis will be covered in detail. Novel trial designs instrumental for smarter drug development is discussed in a separate session.

 

This conference is accredited by the European Board for Accreditation in Hematology (EBAH) CME system. Participants will be eligible to claim CME credit points.
