Ms. Lyle highlights long-term data on the combination of eprenetapopt (APR-246) and azacitidine in patients with TP53-mutated acute myeloid leukemia/myelodysplastic syndromes, a new option for patients with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, and valuable insights into Black and non-Black patient preferences regarding their treatment and communication with their providers.
