Article Synopsis
  • Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a serious condition that can lead to significant health issues, and imaging plays a key role in diagnosing its causes through CT scans of the paranasal sinuses, chest, and abdomen/pelvis.
  • A study of 306 FN patients found that over 61% had positive CT findings, with half diagnosed with an infection, particularly when they showed specific clinical signs, leading to changes in treatment.
  • The findings suggest that systematic chest CT scans are advised for FN patients, and using abdomen/pelvis CTs may also be beneficial, but more research is needed to understand their impact on patient outcomes.

BH3 profiling can assess global mitochondrial priming and dependence of leukemic cells on specific BH3 anti-apoptotic proteins such as BCL-2. In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), proof-of-concept prognostic studies have been performed on archived samples variably accounting for molecular genetics. We undertook a single-center feasibility study of a simplified flow-based assay to determine the absolute mitochondrial priming and BCL-2 dependence in consecutive AML patients.

CPX-351 has been approved for patients with therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes (MRC-AML). No extensive data are available on MRD and long-term clinical outcome using CPX-351 in AML in real-life. We retrospectively collected data from 168 patients in 36 centers in France and Italy who had received one or two cycles of induction with CPX-351.
