Treating Acute Leukemias: Blood Cancer United-NMDP Project ECHO series
On-demand webinar series for hematology/oncology professionals
The Project ECHO model is designed to create a shared learning space for health care professionals through a series of three educational sessions, fostering peer engagement and disseminating best practices in community care. Rapid advances in the treatment of acute leukemias, including acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), can make treatment decisions challenging. This virtual series will help providers stay up to date on the latest in disease-specific indications, treatment with hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and cell therapy, and post-treatment monitoring and care coordination to improve patient outcomes.
