Quoting from the paper, published in ASCO's Journal of Clinical Oncology: "Extended follow-up results confirm improved long-term safety and tolerability of zanubrutinib compared with ibrutinib and support deeper, earlier, and more durable responses in patients with WM regardless of previous treatment or CXCR4 and MYD88 mutational statuses."

A concise summary of the entire 11th International Workshop on WM, entitled What we learned, and how it will impact scientific discovery and patient care, is available here, as published in the journal Seminars in Hematology.

Consensus Panel 4 (CP4) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) was tasked with reviewing the current criteria for diagnosis and response assessment.  Their report is available here.

Consensus Panel 6 (CP6) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) was tasked with reviewing the state of the art for diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy of AL amyloidosis associated with Waldenström macroglobulinemia (WM).  Their report is available here.

Consensus Panel 7 (CP7) of the 11th International Workshop on WM was convened to examine the current generation of completed and ongoing clinical trials involving novel agents, consider updated data on WM genomics, and make recommendations on the design and prioritization of future clinical trials.  Their report is available here.

Consensus Panel 5 (CP5) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11; held in October 2022) was tasked with reviewing the current data on the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) prophylaxis and management in patients with Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (WM).  Their report is available here.

Consensus Panel 3 (CP3) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) was tasked with reviewing the current molecular necessities and best way to access the minimum data required for a correct diagnosis and monitoring.  Their report is available here.

The Consensus Panel 2 (CP2) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenström's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) has reviewed and incorporated current data to update the recommendations for treatment approaches in patients with relapsed or refractory WM (RRWM).  Their report is available here.

Consensus Panel 1 (CP1) of the 11th International Workshop on Waldenstrom's Macroglobulinemia (IWWM-11) was tasked with updating guidelines for the management of symptomatic, treatment-naïve patients with WM.  Their report is available here.

Two clinical trials are available for WM patients at various sites across Canada: https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04624906: Treatment naive patients; Bendamustine + Rituximab, plus one year of Acalabrutinib https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT04728893: R/R patients; Nemtabrutinib (a non-covalent BTK inhibitor)
