Multidisciplinary team coordination for timely escalation and referral in PTLD

How much do you know about the multidisciplinary management of PTLD?

Answer this question to find out. We’ll ask you the question again after you’ve watched the video to see what you recall.

1. A patient with PTLD is considered at high risk of an inadequate response to first-line treatment. Which approach best supports timely access to subsequent treatment?

A. Wait for confirmed progression before contacting a specialist centre, avoiding premature referral while first-line treatment may still produce an adequate clinical response.

B. Ask the haematology team to select the next treatment first, then involve transplant specialists once a specific escalation approach has been established.

C. Agree response-assessment and escalation criteria across the multidisciplinary team, while identifying referral requirements and assembling relevant pathology, imaging, and available EBV information.

D. Initiate specialist referral when EBV monitoring suggests persistent viral activity, without waiting for the planned clinical and imaging-based assessment of treatment response.

Session 4. Susan Prockop (Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, USA) explores the importance of multidisciplinary collaboration in PTLD management. This session discusses team-based approaches to response assessment, referral planning, treatment escalation, and care coordination to help ensure timely decision-making across the PTLD pathway.
