LET'S TALK: Tackling Complex Issues Regarding SM-AHN Management A Monday Morning Joe Online Educational Activity

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a group of rare disorders characterized by the accumulation of mast cells in internal tissues and organs. The pathogenesis of SM is linked to a characteristic exon 17 D816V mutation of the KIT gene. Systemic mastocytosis with associated hematologic neoplasms (SM-AHN) is an advanced subtype of SM that is associated with a shortened median survival time. Recent advances in the SM therapeutic landscape have led to the development of KIT-targeted treatment options; however, the heterogeneous clinical presentation and complex nature of SM-AHN can delay diagnosis and, therefore, treatment. This engaging educational activity provides concise and practical information about SM-AHN in a coffee-talk style format, examining the pathogenesis and challenges in diagnosis, as well as the factors that influence prognosis and therapeutic decision-making in patients with SM-AHN.
