You are now watching over all of us, Dr. Van Tine, as the field of sarcoma and oncology continues to grow from the profound impact you made.

Thank you for being you. It was our privilege to know you. ❤️

The great ones leave us early, but they teach us the most important lessons: about passion, perseverance, humility, and purpose. I can only aspire to be half the innovator and impact-maker that Dr. Brian Van Tine was.

I recently purchased his oncology textbook, hoping to have it autographed when our paths crossed again at ASCO. Sadly, that chance will never come. But his legacy—both scientific and human—will continue to inspire countless others.

Dr. Van Tine was the kind of person who made himself available to everyone—trainees, junior faculty, and colleagues alike. He treated each person with deep respect and genuine kindness.

His energy radiated across every room, as did his brilliant insights and infectious enthusiasm for oncology.

I was fortunate to host him as a Keynote Speaker on MedNews Week, where he generously shared his wisdom, humor, and vision for the future of sarcoma research.

Clinical Implications Remain After Dasatinib CRL in CML/ALL | CancerNetwork
The FDA's CRL for the HyNap formulation of dasatinib due to manufacturing issues does not affect the efficacy or availability of standard dasatinib.

Standard dasatinib (Sprycel) remains accessible, effective, and unchanged for patients. The delay only affects the availability of the HyNap formulation, which may ultimately offer improved patient convenience and tolerability.
October 30, 2025 at 5:33 AM
While the FDA’s third Complete Response Letter introduces a temporary delay, it’s important to note that this was due to manufacturing-related issues, not the drug’s well-established clinical profile.
October 30, 2025 at 5:33 AM
The oncology community has been closely following the development of the amorphous, lower-dose formulation of dasatinib (Dasynoc) under HyNap technology—an approach designed to optimize adherence and long-term tolerability in CML and ALL.
