Concurrent B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia and plasma cell neoplasm with plasmablastic features supporting divergent evolution from a shared precursor: a case report.

BACKGROUND: B-cell malignancies comprise a biologically diverse group of neoplasms, with only rare reports describing the co-occurrence of two distinct lymphoid entities. While concurrent presentation of mature B-cell neoplasms has been documented, the simultaneous occurrence of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and plasma cell neoplasm (PCN) has previously been reported rarely. Such cases may provide insight into the clonal architecture and evolutionary pathways underlying lymphoid malignancies. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 76-year-old man presenting with cytopenias and leukocyto

Multiple Myeloma: The Role of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in the Era of Immunotherapy.

Upfront high-dose therapy with melphalan (HDM) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has established itself as a core treatment for newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients in the past 30 years. Induction therapy, HDM-ASCT, and subsequent consolidation and maintenance therapy comprise the current fundamental framework for MM treatment. The introduction of anti-CD38 monoclonal antibodies such as daratumumab and isatuximab has changed the treatment paradigm for transplant-eligible NDMM patients in that quadruplets have become the new standard induction therapy. The trea

Radiological Diagnosis and Advances in Imaging of Vertebral Compression Fractures.

Vertebral compression fractures (VCFs) affect 1.4 million patients every year, especially among the globally aging population, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. Often characterized with symptoms of sudden onset back pain, decreased vertebral height, progressive kyphosis, and limited mobility, VCFs can significantly impact a patient's quality of life and are a significant public health concern. Imaging modalities in radiology, including radiographs, computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and positron emission tomography (PET) studies and bone scans, play crucial

Уточнение роли селинксора в множестве миеломы: стратегическое использование в изменяющемся ландшафте обработки.

Площадь лечения множественной миеломы (ММ) революционизировалась в прошлом two десятилетиями, приводящими к беспрецедентным глубоким и долговременным ответным мерам, продолжительному выживанию и улучшению качества жизни. Тем не менее ММ по-прежнему является неизлечимым заболеванием, и многие пациенты, особенно больные цитогенетическими заболеваниями высокого риска, почечными расстройствами или ранней резистентностью к лекарственным препаратам, по-прежнему сталкиваются с плохими последствиями. Селинксор, первый в классе, в устной форме биодоступный селективный ингибитор экспорта 1 (XPO1) продем

Epigenetic Dysregulation in Neurodegeneration: The Role of Histone Deacetylases and Emerging Inhibitor Strategies.

Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and Huntington's disease (HD) are characterized by complex pathologies with progressive neurodegeneration, protein misfolding, oxidative stress, and persistent inflammation. Recent findings indicate the pivotal involvement of epigenetic disruption, particularly aberrant histone deacetylase (HDAC) activity, in disease initiation and progression. In the current review, we systematically discuss the mechanistic function of HDACs across all classes (I, IIa, IIb, III, and IV) in neurodegenerative disease mechanis

Recombinant Interferon-β in the Treatment of Polycythemia Vera and Related Neoplasms: Rationales and Perspectives.

About 30 years ago, the first clinical trials of the safety and efficacy of recombinant interferon-α2 (rIFN-α2) were performed. Since then, several single-arm studies have shown rIFN-α2 to be a highly potent anticancer agent against several cancer types. Unfortunately, however, a high toxicity profile in early studies with rIFN-α2 -among other reasons likely due to the high dosages being used-disqualified rIFN-α2, which was accordingly replaced with competitive drugs that might at first glance look more attractive to clinicians. Later, pegylated IFN-α2a (Pegasys) and pegylated IFN-α2b (PegIntr

Integrative Transcriptomic and Machine-Learning Analysis Reveals Immune-Inflammatory and Stress-Response Alterations in MRONJ.

Medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) is a serious adverse effect of antiresorptive and antiangiogenic therapies, yet its molecular mechanisms remain poorly defined. The present study employed an analysis of microarray data (GSE7116) from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with multiple myeloma, myeloma patients with MRONJ, and healthy controls. Differentially expressed genes were identified using the limma package, followed by functional enrichment analysis, weighted gene co-expression network analysis, and LASSO regression and CytoHubba network ranking. The predicti

Use of Real-World Evidence to Drive Drug Development Strategy and Inform Clinical Trial Design.

Interest in real-world data (RWD) and real-world evidence (RWE) to expedite and enrich the development of new biopharmaceutical products has proliferated in recent years, spurred by the 21st Century Cures Act in the United States and similar policy efforts in other countries, willingness by regulators to consider RWE in their decisions, demands from third-party payers, and growing concerns about the limitations of traditional clinical trials. Although much of the recent literature on RWE has focused on potential regulatory uses (e.g., product approvals in oncology or rare diseases based on sin

Средиземное питание и риск множественных склерозов: перспективное когортное исследование.

Несмотря на то, что, согласно сообщениям, присоединение к средиземноморскому рациону питания обратно связано с риском нейродегенеративного заболевания, нет уверенности в том, что эта схема рациона питания также позволит снизить риск множественных склерозов (МС). Мы проанализировали данные, полученные от 41,428 - участники шведского Национального марша Корта. Поступление в рацион питания оценивалось на базовом уровне в 1997 с использованием вопросника о частотности пищевых продуктов. Счёт средиземноморского диета был проанализирован в цифровом выражении (диапазон: 0-9) и категорично (низкий, ср

Recent advances in anti-angiogenic therapy of cancer.

Since angiogenesis is critical for tumor growth and metastasis, anti-angiogenic treatment is a highly promising therapeutic approach. Thus, for over last couple of decades, there has been a robust activity aimed towards the discovery of angiogenesis inhibitors. More than forty anti-angiogenic drugs are being tested in clinical trials all over the world. This review discusses agents that have approved by the FDA and are currently in use for treating patients either as single-agents or in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents.

Lowering the Selinexor Dose within the Pomalidomide and Dexamethasone Combination Regimen Elicits Fewer Side Effects While Comparable Efficacy Against Relapsed/Refractory Multiple Myeloma.

BackgroundAs a novel oral Exportin 1 (XPO1) inhibitor, selinexor at 80 or 100 mg has demonstrated efficacy in treating relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), nonetheless, this dosage has shown poor tolerability.ObjectiveTo explore the optimal dosage of selinexor, we evaluated the efficacy and safety of 60 vs 40 mg selinexor, combine with regimen comprising pomalidomide and dexamethasone in RRMM.Design21 patients with RRMM were enrolled to receive selinexor (60 or 40 mg once weekly), together with pomalidomide (4 mg/day on days 1-21) and dexamethasone (40 mg once weekly); the SPD-60 group

Targeting B Cell Maturation Antigen (BCMA) in Multiple Myeloma: Potential Uses of BCMA-Based Immunotherapy.

The approval of the first two monoclonal antibodies targeting CD38 (daratumumab) and SLAMF7 (elotuzumab) in late 2015 for treating relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) was a critical advance for immunotherapies for multiple myeloma (MM). Importantly, the outcome of patients continues to improve with the incorporation of this new class of agents with current MM therapies. However, both antigens are also expressed on other normal tissues including hematopoietic lineages and immune effector cells, which may limit their long-term clinical use. B cell maturation antigen (BCMA), a transme
