Isolation and Cryopreservation of Primary Macaque Hepatocytes.

Primary human hepatocytes (PHHs) are recognized as the "gold standard" for evaluating toxicity of various drugs or chemicals in vitro. However, due to their limited availability, primary hepatocytes isolated from rodents are more commonly used in various experimental studies than PHHs. However, bigger differences in drug metabolism were seen between humans and rats compared to those between human and non-human primates.

Efficacy and safety of venetoclax plus hypomethylating agents in relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia: a multicenter real-life experience.

Venetoclax (VEN) has been shown to play a synergistic effect in combination with hypomethylating agents (HMAs) in the frontline treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the potential role of this therapy in the relapsed/refractory (R/R) AML setting, still needs to be further unveiled. The aim of the current study was to retrospectively outline the safety profile, response and survival outcomes of R/R AML patients treated with VEN in association with HMAs.
