Selinexor, bortezomib, and dexamethasone versus bortezomib and dexamethasone in previously treated multiple myeloma: Outcomes by cytogenetic risk.

In the phase 3 BOSTON study, patients with multiple myeloma (MM) after 1-3 prior regimens were randomized to once-weekly selinexor (an oral inhibitor of exportin 1 [XPO1]) plus bortezomib-dexamethasone (XVd) or twice-weekly bortezomib-dexamethasone (Vd). Compared with Vd, XVd was associated with significant improvements in median progression-free survival (PFS), overall response rate (ORR), and lower rates of peripheral neuropathy, with trends in overall survival (OS) favoring XVd. In BOSTON, 141 (35.1%) patients had MM with high-risk (presence of del[17p], t[4;14], t[14;16], or ≥4 copies of a

MicroRNA-195 reverses the resistance to temozolomide through targeting cyclin E1 in glioma cells.

Glioma is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system with poor survival. Temozolomide (TMZ) is the first-line chemotherapy drug for initial and recurrent glioma treatment with a relatively good efficacy, which exerts its antitumor effects mainly through cell death induced by DNA double-strand breaks in the G1 and S phases. However, endogenous or acquired resistance to TMZ limits glioma patients' clinical outcome and is also an important cause of glioma replase. MicroRNA-195 (miR-195) plays an important role in the regulation of G1-phase/S-phase transition, DNA damage repair,

Epidemiology, genetics and treatment of multiple myeloma and precursor diseases.

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy caused by the clonal expansion of plasma cells. The incidence of MM worldwide is increasing with greater than 140 000 people being diagnosed with MM per year. Whereas 5-year survival after a diagnosis of MM has improved from 28% in 1975 to 56% in 2012, the disease remains essentially incurable. In this review, we summarize our current understanding of MM including its epidemiology, genetics and biology. We will also provide an overview of MM management that has led to improvements in survival, including recent changes to diagnosis and therapi

Mutation profile and chromosomal abnormality in adenomyosis.

In briefBy tissue-selective next-generation sequencing, we showed that adenomyotic epithelium harbored genomic alterations thought to be relevant to the development and progression of adenomyosis, including somatic mutations in several cancer-associated genes with high mutant allele frequencies and the gain of chromosome 1q. Clonal relationships among multiple adenomyotic lesions and the normal uterine endometrium delineate the oligoclonal origin of adenomyosis and the spatial expansion of mutant clones.AbstractTo identify the distinctive features of mutation profiles in adenomyosis compared t

Targeted Delivery of Drugs and Genes Using Polymer Nanocarriers for Cancer Therapy.

Cancer is one of the primary causes of worldwide human deaths. Most cancer patients receive chemotherapy and radiotherapy, but these treatments are usually only partially efficacious and lead to a variety of serious side effects. Therefore, it is necessary to develop new therapeutic strategies. The emergence of nanotechnology has had a profound impact on general clinical treatment. The application of nanotechnology has facilitated the development of nano-drug delivery systems (NDDSs) that are highly tumor selective and allow for the slow release of active anticancer drugs. In recent years, veh

Integrated Network Pharmacology Approach for Drug Combination Discovery: A Multi-Cancer Case Study.

Despite remarkable efforts of computational and predictive pharmacology to improve therapeutic strategies for complex diseases, only in a few cases have the predictions been eventually employed in the clinics. One of the reasons behind this drawback is that current predictive approaches are based only on the integration of molecular perturbation of a certain disease with drug sensitivity signatures, neglecting intrinsic properties of the drugs. Here we integrate mechanistic and chemocentric approaches to drug repositioning by developing an innovative network pharmacology strategy. We developed

Polyphenols bind G4-Quadruplex structures and act as epigenetic modifiers with anti-cancer effects.

G4-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical structures of nucleic acids that develop in guanine rich regions of DNA and RNA. Due to their presence in oncogenic promoters and telomeres, G4s represent attractive targets in anticancer drug designs. G4s have also been the subject of recent research regarding their role as epigenetic modulators, supporting their participation in epigenetic processes that control gene expression. The development of small compounds that preferentially target G4s have led to a better understanding of how G4s control these mechanisms. Natural products have greatly contribu

Research progress of novel anti-tumor drug formulations.

Cancers have become the second leading cause of death worldwide, following cardiovascular diseases.Traditional anti- cancer strategies, including radiotherapy chemotherapy, surgery, and targeted therapies, have been widely used but are often reassessed due to their significant side effects and relatively low cure rate. Recently, the development of novel formulations for anti-tumor drugs has gained considerable attention, marking a pivotal step forward in cancer treatment advancements. These innovative formulations aim to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of anti-tumor drugs by employing advance

Post-pandemic recommendations for the management of COVID-19 in patients with haematological malignancies or undergoing cellular therapy, from the European Conference on Infections in Leukaemia (ECIL-10).

In the post-pandemic years, SARS-CoV-2 morbidity and mortality declined due to less pathogenic variants, active and passive immunization, and antiviral therapies. However, patients with hematological malignancies and/or undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) remain at increased risk for poor outcomes. Therefore, adherence to contact and droplet precautions is essential to avoid transmission, especially during epidemic waves. Detection of viral RNA by nucleic acid testing of naso-oro-pharyngeal samples is the gold standard for diagnosis due to its high sensitivity and specificity.

Liquid Biopsy in Cancer: Focus on Lymphoproliferative Disorders.

Within the context of precision medicine, the scientific community is giving particular attention to early diagnosis and intervention, guided by non-invasive methodologies. Liquid biopsy (LBx) is a recent laboratory approach consisting of a non-invasive blood draw, which allows the detection of information about potential prognostic factors, or markers to be used for diagnostic purposes; it might also allow the clinician to establish a treatment regimen and predict a patient's response. Since the discovery of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in the nineteenth century, the possibility of integrat

Here, we report initial results from the ACCELERATE natural history registry. ACCELERATE includes a traditional physician-reported arm and a patient-powered arm, which enables patients to directly contribute medical data and biospecimens. This study design enables successful enrollment, with the 5-year minimum enrollment g

Lenalidomide-associated B-cell ALL: clinical and pathologic correlates and sensitivity to lenalidomide withdrawal.

Lenalidomide is an effective component of induction and maintenance therapy for multiple myeloma, though with a risk of secondary malignancies, including acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In contrast to therapy-related myeloid neoplasia, lenalidomide-associated lymphoblastic neoplasia remains poorly characterized. We conducted a dual institution retrospective study of 32 ALL cases that arose after lenalidomide maintenance (all B-lineage, 31/32 BCR::ABL-negative). B-cell ALL (B-ALL) was diagnosed at median 54 months (range, 5-119) after first exposure to lenalidomide and after median 42 month

Gene editing and CRISPR in the clinic: current and future perspectives.

Genome editing technologies, particularly those based on zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat DNA sequences)/Cas9 are rapidly progressing into clinical trials. Most clinical use of CRISPR to date has focused on ex vivo gene editing of cells followed by their re-introduction back into the patient. The ex vivo editing approach is highly effective for many disease states, including cancers and sickle cell disease, but ideally genome editing would also be applied to diseases whic
