Background: Even with significant advancements, treating multiple myeloma (MM) remains difficult. At present, the main treatment methods include combined treatment of stem cell transplantation, drug treatment, etc. With the clarification of the molecular biological mechanism of MM, as well as the in-depth study of the internal signal of myeloma cells and the microenvironment of MM patients, more and more new drugs targeting myeloma and microenvironment are gradually used in clinical maintenance treatment, such as inhibit the proteosome: ixazomib, bortezomib and carfilzomib, immune - modulators: thalidomide and lenalidomide, monoclonal antibodies, etc.

BIBR1532, a telomerase inhibitor, is widely used in cancer treatment and has promising outcomes. In this study, we investigated the efficacy and mechanism of action of BIBR1532 in MM.

Therefore, we conducted a phase 2 trial of dasatinib plus prednisone, as induction (Course I) and early consolidation (Courses II and III) treating newly diagnosed Ph + ALL. The trial was registered at www.

Methods: The human myeloma cell line RPMI 8266 was taken as the research object. An azithromycin (AZM)-resistant cell line RPMI 8226/R was constructed, and GENT61 was used to block the Hedgehog signaling pathway.
Objective: To observe the clinical effects and adverse reactions, and analyze the clinical significance of L-asparaginase (L-ASP) containing multidrug chemotherapy regimen in incipient peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).
Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted of 102 patients with incipient PTCL who received L-ASP containing multidrug chemotherapy regimens or not in our hospital from January 2010 to December 2013. Complete remission (CR) rate, partial remission (PR) rate, overall remission (OR) rate, progression free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and adverse reactions were compared.
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and adverse effects of L-asparaginase (L-ASP) containing regimens in patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma.
Methods: A total of 102 newly diagnosed patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma who received combination chemotherapy with or without L-ASP were enrolled in the study between January 2011 and December 2013 in our hospital. Therapeutic and adverse effects were retrospectively analyzed, including the short-term efficacy such as complete remission (CR) rate, partial remission (PR) rate, overall remission (OR) rate, and long-term efficacy such as overall survival (OS) rate, progressive free survival (PFS) rate.
