Summary: Chemotherapy followed by donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) is a promising treatment for patients with relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The CCAG plus DLI regimen is safe and effective, and leads to durable remission and improved survival rates.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy of HAA and IA regimens as first induction chemotherapy in CBF-AML patients. The results showed that the HAA regimen had better outcomes, with higher remission rate and more favorable relapse-free survival, for patients with RUNX1::RUXN1T1 gene abnormality. However, there was no difference in efficacy between the two regimens for patients with CBFB::MYH11 gene abnormality.

Summary: This study followed 169 adult patients with myeloid malignancies who received myeloablative conditioning regimen involving G-CSF and high-dose cytarabine. The overall survival rate at 10 years was 62.5%, with a 26.0% relapse rate and a 16.9% non-relapse mortality rate. Higher disease risk index significantly increased overall mortality risk.

Summary: In this study, a shortened 3-day cyclophosphamide and Ara-C regimen was used, with the addition of low-dose venetoclax (VEN), and the efficacy and safety were reported. The results showed that this regimen is highly effective in newly diagnosed AML patients and the addition of VEN achieves a higher and deeper one-course remission.

Summary: This study aims to clarify the incidence and clinicoradiologic characteristics of pegfilgrastim-induced aortitis. The results of the study found that the incidence of pegfilgrastim-induced aortitis may be higher than previously reported and may be more common in patients with esophageal cancer and those who received specific anticancer drugs. Furthermore, CT findings indicated that pegfilgrastim-induced aortitis is often characterized by involvement of the aortic arch and proximal branches.

Summary: This study retrospectively assessed the clinical data of R/R AML patients who received the CDCAG regimen and found that the regimen was effective and well-tolerated. Patients with DNMT3A, TET2, and IDH1/2 mutations might benefit from this regimen.

Summary: Substituting PEG-rhG-CSF for short-acting rhG-CSF in the DA-EPOCH regimen significantly reduces the incidence of febrile neutropenia and related hospitalization, while simplifying management for both patients and healthcare providers.

Summary: Age influences the biology and clinical outcomes of AML patients, with a decrease in the proportion of favorable risk patients and those receiving induction chemotherapy as age increases. The rates of achieving complete response (CR) also decrease with age, particularly in patients over 60 years old.

Summary: This study examined the real-world incidence of febrile neutropenia among patients with thoracic malignancies treated with single-agent amrubicin chemotherapy, and found that the incidence rate was 30%. It suggests that prophylactic G-CSF should be administered during practical use of this chemotherapy regimen for patients who have already undergone chemotherapy.

Summary: This article describes a novel animal model carrying a recurrent TET2 missense mutation frequently found in patients with CH and leukemia. Using single-cell transcriptomic profiling of the bone marrow, the study showed that disease progression in aged animals correlates with an enhanced inflammatory response and the emergence of an aberrant inflammatory monocytic cell population.
