Favourable outcomes with CPX-351 versus conventional 7 + 3 were demonstrated in the pivotal phase III trial in adults aged 60-75 years with newly diagnosed, highrisk/secondary acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). As a complement to the clinical trial and to address important data gaps, the CPX-351 Real-World Effectiveness and SafeTy (CREST-UK; NCT05169307) study evaluated the use of CPX-351 in routine clinical practice in the UK, in 147 patients with newly diagnosed therapy-related AML or AML with myelodysplasia-related changes. Best response of complete remission or complete remission with incomplete platelet or neutrophil recovery was achieved by 53% of evaluable patients.

Background: CPX-351 demonstrated improved overall survival (OS) versus conventional 3 + 7 daunorubicin/cytarabine chemotherapy in a registrational phase III study in older patients with newly diagnosed, high-risk secondary acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This retrospective, population-based cohort study aimed to describe and compare the characteristics and survival outcomes of younger (<60 years) versus older (≥60 years) patients with AML treated with CPX-351 in England.

Patients And Methods: The study included adults aged ≥18 years diagnosed with AML in England between January 2013 and March 2022, and treated with CPX-351 in routine clinical practice (patients who received CPX-351 in a clinical trial were excluded).

A sensitive and reproducible measurement of knee surgery outcomes is increasingly needed. However, it has been difficult to compare results because of numerous scoring systems and the publication of data in these systems. Our aim was to compare the more widely used American Knee Society score (AKSS) with the shorter Oxford Knee Score (OKS).

The American Knee Society score (AKSS) and the Oxford Knee score (OKS) are validated outcome measures for evaluation of total knee arthroplasties (TKAs). We investigated whether patient self-assessment using the OKS offers a viable alternative to clinical review using the AKSS. Preoperative, 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year postoperative OKS and AKSS were reviewed from TKA patients.
