      David Wallace

      Founder & CEO of MPN Cancer Connection and PV Reporter | Patient Advocate

      When David was diagnosed with PV in 2009, at the age of 47, he soon learned there was limited and often conflicting information available on Myeloproliferative Neoplasms (MPNs). He also realized early on in his diagnosis, the importance of advocating for himself to best manage his polycythemia vera (PV). David was grateful for the early support and guidance of fellow MPN patients on his journey and wanted a way to give back to the MPN community. With a professional background in business administration and sociology, David has a passion for finding solutions and helping others. In 2013, David used his skill set to create PV Reporter,
      a comprehensive patient-focused website for MPNs. David refers to his site as a hub for patients to begin to research their cancer. Whether a patient, caregiver or healthcare provider, PV Reporter offers visitors a wealth of educational resources, patient stories, articles, and the latest news on the treatment for MPNs, helping MPN patients and their caregivers stay informed, connected and empowered. In 2015, along with the help of others, David founded a non-profit MPN Cancer Connection (MPN-CC), a patient-led 501©3 formed to create awareness that MPN patients are “cancer patients” and should have complete access to local and national programs and benefits. David’s philosophy is to educate patients to become their own advocates so that they can make informed decisions on their treatment. David’s dedication to the MPN community is further evidenced through his work and awards:
      • Selected to endorse 2018 NCCN guidelines for MPN patients by MPN Cancer Connection
      • Selected to represent the United States as a patient advocate by MPNs Advocate Network International Conference 2016-2019
      • Recipient of MPN Hero Award 2016
      • Published in MD Anderson Cancer Center MPN Focus Newsletter Fall 2016
      • Appearance on “The Doctors” TV show in 2015 to promote MPN awareness
      • Awarded Press Credentials for American Society of Hematology Conference 2014-2019
      • Contributor to Patient Power MPN educational videos
      David lives in Charlotte, North Carolina. When he’s not working, David enjoys spending time with family, listening to live music, attending outdoor festivals, watching the Carolina Panthers, riding his motorcycle, traveling and of course having his beloved Aussiedoodle Bailey by his side.

Evaluation of a Cardiovascular Active Prevention in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia on the Cardiovascular Morbi-mortality

Study Purpose

According to the French National Cancer Institute, 35 000 new hematologic cancers are observed in France representing 10% of the new cancers. Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) is a cancer involving the bone marrow and blood cells, the median age at diagnosis is 53 years in the Western world. The prognosis is worse than many other cancers with net survival at 5 years of 26%. Since the approval of imatinib, additional tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have been approved by the European Medicine Agency, including the second-generation TKIs nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib and the third-generation TKI ponatinib. Despite their effect on the evolution of CML, there is increasing of cardiovascular toxicities which can impact patient morbidity and mortality. The majority of the cardiovascular toxicities are associated with the second- and third-generation TKIs. Nilotinib and ponatinib cardiovascular toxicity including arterial and venous thromboembolism has decrease the benefit/risk ratio, 10% of patients treated with nilotinib 300 mg twice daily and 15.9% treated with 400 mg twice daily experienced a vascular complication including myocardial infarction /ischemic heart disease, cerebrovascular accidents, or peripheral arterial disease. Regarding ponatinib, serious arterial occlusive adverse reactions occurred in 19% of patients. In an attempt to reduce major adverse cardiovascular events MACE due to nilotinib and ponatinib, currently, then approach is driven by usual clinical practice without any robust published evidence. The investigators aim to perform a national clinical trial, multicenter, prospective, randomized, with two parallel comparative arms: experimental group with cardiovascular active prevention vs.#46;non active cardiovascular active prevention based on usual clinical practice. Our hypothesis is that active prevention of cardiovascular toxicities with optimal medical treatment improves the benefit-risk ratio in CML patients. The primary objective is Event Free Survival (EFS) at month 24.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms

No
Study Type

An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes.


An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.


Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.
