The range of frontline therapy options for mantle cell lymphoma can influence subsequent treatment choices for patients with relapsed or refractory disease. Providers must determine initial treatment based on individual patient characteristics, while also factoring in future treatment options. In this episode, CANCER BUZZ speaks with Nirav Shah, MD, MSHP, associate professor of medicine at Medical College of Wisconsin and Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCOP, PCOP, FACCC, assistant professor of pharmacy at Mayo Clinic and director of pharmacy at Minnesota Oncology, about shared decision making in the management of relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma.

“The key to all of this is good collaboration between the community and their affiliates… their partners and academics, or tertiary referral centers, to really engage… these patients in a collaborative format… it really takes a team, a village, to take care of complex mantle cell lymphoma patients. “ –Dr. Nirav Shah, MD, MSHP

“We’re not really seeing a lot of CAR T-cell therapy move in the frontline setting just yet, while there are a lot of ongoing clinical trials… Really, right now, it’s going to be the patient characteristic: how well they did on frontline therapy, access to care, affordability, institutional preparedness… that would potentially… allow your patient to receive CAR T-cell therapy.” –Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCPS, PCOP, FACCC
