Feasibility and outcomes after dose reduction of immunochemotherapy in young adults with Burkitt lymphoma and leukemia: results of the BURKIMAB14 trial.

High dose-intensive or infusional intermediate-dose immunochemotherapy is highly effective treatment for Burkitt lymphoma irrespective of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. However, toxicities of these regimens are relevant, especially in older adults and elderly patients. The prospective multicenter BURKIMAB14 trial included four to six blocks of immunochemotherapy according to stage (localized: 1 and 2 non-bulky; advanced: 2 bulky, 3, 4) and age, with dose reduction in patients >55 years old.

Clinical outcomes after CPX-351 in patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia: A comparison with a matched cohort from the Spanish PETHEMA registry.

Background: CPX-351 is approved for the treatment of therapy related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) and AML with myelodysplastic related changes (MRC-AML). The benefits of this treatment over standard chemotherapy has not been addressed in well matched cohorts of real-life patients.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of AML patients treated with CPX-351 as per routine practice.

Survival improvement of patients with FLT3 mutated acute myeloid leukemia: results from a prospective 9 years cohort.

Midostaurin added to intensive chemotherapy is the standard of care for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with FLT3 mutations (FLT3mut). We analyzed the impact of midostaurin in 227 FLT3mut-AML patients included in the AML-12 prospective trial for fit patients ≤70 years (#NCT04687098). Patients were divided into an early (2012-2015) and late (2016-2020) cohorts.
