New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

6. PULP is a formative organ
of tooth.
It builds-1. dentin during
development of tooth
-2. secondary
dentin after tooth
eruption
-3. reparative
dentin in
response to
stimulation
6
10. Pulp consist of vascular connective tissue
contained within the rigid dentin walls.
Accurate pulpal diagnosis is the key to all
endodontic treatments.
10
11. Located deep within the tooth.
Radiographically- radiolucent line
Normal pulp- coherent soft tissue, dependent on its
normal hard dentin shell for protection.
Pulp totally surrounded by the dentinal wall.
Total lack of collateral circulation
Presence of cells
Responses are unpredictable
Correlation of clinical signs and symptoms with
corresponding specific histological picture is often
difficult.

The description is very much hypothetical.
This description was obtained largely by
examining paraffin embedded sections stained
with hematoxylin and eosin under the light
microscope.
14
15. Cariogenic bacteria in the dental plaque
produce a mixture of acids and enzymes that
dissolve the mineral elements of enamel and
dentin and then digest the organic matrix.
The initial removal of mineral makes the
enamel more permeable and the bacterial
toxins will diffuse well ahead of cavitation.
Once the dentin is reached, the toxins and,
much later, the bacteria themselves will travel
along the dentinal tubules
15
16. In vital teeth, this movement will be opposed
by the outward flow of dentinal fluid.
Brannstrom and Linde looked at a large
number of extracted teeth and found that in
approximately 50% of teeth with white spot
lesions and no cavitation, there was histologic
evidence of inflammation in the underlying
pulp
16
17. If the body has been exposed to the antigen
on a previous occasion, then the record of
that exposure will have been maintained by
the memory T cells.
The production of lymphocytes
synthesizing specific antibodies will begin
very quickly
17
18. If the antigen has not been encountered before,
new clonal lines of lymphocytes will be
developed, which takes several days.
In either case, the production of specific
lymphocytes will take place in the lymph
nodes.
A local interaction between antigen-presenting
cells and resident T lymphocytes.

Such epithelium may be derived from the
gingiva or from freshly desquamated
epithelial cells of the mucosa or tongue.
62
63. The tissue in the pulp chamber is often
transformed into granulation tissue, which
projects from the pulp into the carious lesion.
The granulation tissue is young, vascular
connective tissue containing
polymorphonuclear neutrophils, lymphocytes,
and plasma cells.
The pulp tissue is chronically inflamed.

Pain may be a presenting symptom if
perforation of the crown occurs and the
metaplastic tissue is exposed to the oral fluids.
70
71. For internal resorption to be active, at least
part of the pulp must be vital, so that a positive
response to pulp sensitivity testing is expected.

166. If bacteria eliminated from root canal &
dentinal tubules – resorptive process get
arrested
• Resorption cavity gets filled with bone /
cementum (according to the vital tissue
available adjacent to resorptive site )
166
167. Clinical features:
Increased mobility
Dull percussion tone
Sometimes tooth extruded
No response to sensitivity testing
Sometimes sinus tract develop
167
169. Radiograph:
Diagnoses 2-4 weeks after injury
Appear as progressive cavitation involving
root & adjacent alveolar bone
Resorption progress rapidly - resulting in
total loss of root structure after only a few
months (particularly in young children)
169
170. Treatment;
Remove /destroy bacteria in root canal &
dentinal tubules.
Allow healing in entire periradicular region.
calcium hydroxide dressing
If Ca(OH)2- used for more than 30 days –
weakening of root structure of immature teeth
causes cervical root fracture.
170
171. Treatment:
Mature teeth:
Prophylactic extirpation of pulp in replanted
avulsed teeth
Biomechanical preparation
Ca(OH)2 intra canal medicament- 2-3
weeks
Obturation
171
172. Immature teeth
(open apex):
Ca(OH)2 (apexification)
MTA – used as physical barrier apically
In mature teeth – weakening does not occur.
172
174. Chronic focal sclerosing osteomyletis
Condensing osteitis is the response to a low-
grade, chronic inflammation of the
periradicular area as a result of a mild irritation
through the root canal.
174
175. It is a diffuse radiopaque lesion usually
surrounding the root apex.
Characterised by localised reaction of bone to
low grade inflammatory stimulus regressing
from the root canal.
175
Ingle 7th edition
176. Mostly associated with active bone formation.
Radiopaque- localised excessive production of
bone around the root apex results in narrowing
of medullar bone spaces.
176
177. Diagnosis:
Condensing osteitis appears in radiographs as
a localized area of radiopacity surrounding the
affected root. It is an area of dense bone with
reduced trabecular pattern
The mandibular posterior teeth
vitality tests -"normal'' range.
177
178. Treatment:
Removal of the irritant stimulus is
recommended
Endodontic treatment should be initiated if
signs and symptoms of irreversible pulpitis are
diagnosed.
178Ingle 7th edition
179. Periradicular lesions may arise from the
remnants of odontogenic epithelium.
Lesions of non endodontic origin with vital
pulps:
Periapical cemental dysplasia/ cementoma
Cementoblastoma
Odontogenic cyst
Fissural cyst
Central giant cell granuloma
179Grossman 13th edition
180. Early stages of periradicular cementum
dysplasia
Early stages of monostatic fibrous dysplasia
Ossifying fibroma
Primordial cyst
Lateral periodontal cyst
Dentigerous csyt
Traumatic bone cyst
Myxoma
ameloblastoma
180
182. The value of pulp as an integral part of
the tooth both anatomic and functional
should be recognised and every effort
must be made to conserve it.
A tooth affected by periapical disease
should always be treated, it cannot be
ignored.
182
183. A vast amount of knowledge has been
accumulated on the prognosis and treatment
outcome of endodontic treatment.
The extent of infection and the prevention of
microbial contaminant during and after
treatment are the primary clinical consideration
