Trial eligibility, treatment patterns and outcome for venetoclax-based therapy in AML: a prospective cohort study.

Venetoclax (Ven) plus hypomethylating agents are considered standard-of-care for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) judged ineligible for intensive chemotherapy (IC). Real-world studies complement clinical trials, since patterns of patient selection, treatment-exposure and post-remission management may vary. This prospective observational multi-center study included 209 newly diagnosed IC-ineligible patients with a median age 75 years (interquartile range, 71-81 years).

Case report: VEXAS syndrome with excellent response to treatment with azacitidine.

Vacuoles, E1 enzyme, X-linked, auto inflammatory, somatic (VEXAS) syndrome is an inflammatory disorder caused by somatic UBA1 variants and is characterized by late-onset systemic autoimmune inflammation and blood abnormalities. Glucocorticoids ameliorate symptoms effectively. However, other treatment options have limited efficacy and a transient effect.

Outcomes of non-COVID-19 critically ill patients with hematologic malignancies a 10-year single-center retrospective analysis.

We report the outcomes of patients with haematological malignancies admitted to ICUs and define pre-ICU prognostic factors for in-hospital mortality. In a retrospective, single-center study, we included all patients with haematologic malignancies admitted to ICUs between 2009 and 2019. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality.

Gilteritinib with or without venetoclax for relapsed/refractory FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukaemia.

Patients with FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) that relapse or are refractory (R/R) to intensive induction have poor outcomes. Gilteritinib has recently become standard-of-care for patients with R/R FLT3-mutated AML. We investigated whether adding venetoclax to gilteritinib (gilt-ven) improves outcomes as compared with gilteritinib monotherapy.
