For World ALL Day 2024, Anthony Moorman, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, discussed the factors that influence survivorship in acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Moorman begins by discussing the factors that influence survivorship, such as age, sex, genetics, and treatment response, and why response to treatment can vary between patients. He then talks about the importance of quality of life and reducing toxicity of treatments for long-term survivors.
Moorman also speaks about why research is crucial to identify how to reduce toxicity in treatment, which conditions are linked to acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and how to improve outcomes. He discusses how survival has improved in recent years, and how emerging therapies may further increase survival rates.
