Interview Questions
Q1.

Please tell us about your clinical experience. How many patients with leukemia (MZL/ FL) do you currently treat? What treatments do you use?

Q2.

Please tell us about Umbralisib’s PI3Kδ/CK1ε pathway mechanism. In what patient circumstances would you recommend umbralisib? When would you choose it over Revlimid?

Added By: catalin_admin
Q3.

Umbralisib has previously been granted BTD & ODD in MZL but not in FL. How important is this aspect? And what can you tell us about Bayer’s Aliqopa (copanlisib- also BTD ) in comparison to that?

Q4.

TG Therapeutics cites an improved tolerability profile over 1st generation compounds and a once daily dosing schedule vs twice daily for 1st generation compounds. Are those meaningful advances that you’d consider when prescribing a treatment? Have there been issues regarding tolerability/dosing in your other treatment plans before?

Added By: catalin_admin
Q5.

Celgene’s lenalidomide (REVLIMID) has been approved in FL and MZL half year ago based on AUGMENT and MAGNIFY trial. Have you been using it? What’s your impression so far?

Q6.

In TGTX’s MZL trial, 86% of patients (36/42) had a reduction in tumor burden; median time to initial response was 2.7 months, and maximum percentage change from baseline SPD was on average 52% ORR/ 19% CR. What are your thoughts on this data?

Q7.

.In the same trial, there were 3 grade 3 infections reported (bronchitis, pneumonia, and influenza). How much of a concern is it to you?

Added By: catalin_admin
Q8.

According to the company, R2 : recently approved Revlimid plus Rituxan– can cause severe neutropenia and rash and secondary malignancy risks • less than half of patients respond to Ibrutinib + tolerability issues • PI3K Delta inhibitors: 3 approved for FL but with tolerability issues. How true are those statements, judging from your experience?

Added By: catalin_admin

Added By: catalin_admin
