Ixazomib (IXA) is an oral proteasome inhibitor (PI) used in combination with lenalidomide and dexamethasone (IXA-Rd) for patients with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). The REMIX study is one of the largest prospective, real-world analysis of the effectiveness of IXA-Rd in the setting of RRMM. Conducted in France between August 2017 and October 2019, the REMIX study, a non-interventional prospective study, included 376 patients receiving IXA-Rd in second line or later and followed for at least 24 months.

Background: Evidence regarding the analgesic effect of distraction through immersion in virtual reality (VR) for care-induced pain has been documented in several phase 2 trials, but comparison with standard treatments in large, randomized studies is needed.

Objective: In this open-label, multicenter, randomized, phase 3 trial, we evaluated the safety and efficacy of a novel VR therapy solution for distraction in the context of bone marrow biopsy.

Methods: Bliss is a VR software with 4 imaginary interactive environments in 3 dimensions with binaural sound (head-mounted display).

Article Synopsis
  • This study compared the effectiveness and safety of two treatment options for previously untreated follicular lymphoma: R-CHOP (rituximab with CHOP chemotherapy) and G-CHOP (obinutuzumab with CHOP chemotherapy).
  • Data from 124 patients showed no significant difference in progression-free survival between the two treatments, although G-CHOP had higher rates of hematological toxicity and infusion-related reactions.
  • The introduction of G-CHOP also led to significantly higher treatment costs, estimating an additional €30,000 per patient, suggesting no clear advantage of G-CHOP over R-CHOP in the current context.

Article Synopsis
  • - The SPIRIT trial is a long-term study that compares the effectiveness of various treatments for chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML), involving 787 patients followed for an average of 13.5 years.
  • - Overall and progression-free survival rates after 15 years were similar across four treatment groups, ranging from 80% to 87%, suggesting comparable effectiveness of different combinations.
  • - The combination of imatinib with pegylated interferon alpha2a resulted in significantly better molecular response rates compared to imatinib alone, although toxicity led to treatment cessation for some patients.

The most important series devoted to antithyroid drug-induced severe neutropenia and agranulocytosis are Japanese studies, almost specifically in relation to the intake of methimazole. The clinical data of 30 Caucasian patients followed up for antithyroid drug-induced neutropenia at a third-level hospital are reported. The data of 30 patients with idiosyncratic antithyroid drug-induced neutropenia and agranulocytosis from a cohort study on drug-induced neutropenia and agranulocytosis conducted at the University Hospital of Strasbourg (France) were retrospectively reviewed.
