Chemotherapy-induced myelosuppression (CIM) is one of the most common dose-limiting complications of cancer treatment and is associated with a range of debilitating symptoms that significantly impact patients’ quality of life. Physical manifestations include neutropenia, anemia, and thrombocytopenia – all of which can cascade into severe complications. These undeniable risks of cancer therapy persist despite the availability of guideline directed protocols of care and a ready assortment of rescue treatment options. Currently, however, there is no available solution that mitigates the myelosuppressive effects of chemotherapy before they occur. Therein lies an unmet need.
Join Drs. Rob Epstein and Marc Chioda as they reframe the landscape of CIM with a fresh perspective on the root of the clinical problem, the patient burden revealed through real world management of CIM, and the hope for a future that fulfills the unmet need – one made more complicated by the confounding influence of Covid-19 in the day-to-day management of people facing malignancy. Better communication between people and their health care teams could help them to understand how people experience myelosuppression and make plans for treatment together.
