Article Synopsis
- Advances in lymphoma treatment have made assessing health-related quality of life (HRQoL) crucial for newly diagnosed patients, yet there's limited information on their HRQoL profiles at diagnosis.
- A study involving 3922 adults with various lymphoma types utilized three validated EORTC questionnaires to evaluate HRQoL at diagnosis, achieving high completion rates between 84% and 88%.
- Findings highlighted significant impairments in global health status across lymphoma subtypes, with factors like gender, performance status, and B symptoms affecting HRQoL, providing valuable insights for future research and clinical practices.
Article Synopsis
- Real-world data (RWD) are crucial for enhancing clinical trial (CT) findings, but challenges like data quality persist; the REALYSA study, launched in 2018, focuses on newly diagnosed lymphoma patients in France.
- A proof-of-concept analysis of 645 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) found high data completeness (<4% missing) and revealed good survival rates, with a median follow-up of 9.9 months showing 1-year event-free survival of 77.9% and overall survival of 90.0%.
- The study also assessed how well REALYSA's patient outcomes matched those from recent phase 3 trials (POLARIX and SENIOR), demonstrating
Background: Reports of patients with secondary acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) have increased in recent years, particularly for those who received treatment with mitoxantrone, and retrospective studies have suggested that their characteristics and outcomes were similar to those of patients with de novo APL.
Methods: The authors investigated patients with de novo and secondary APL who were included in the ongoing APL-2006 trial. Patients with secondary APL who were included in that trial also were compared with a previous retrospective cohort of patients with secondary APL.
Introduction: The treatment of reference of congenital toxoplasmosis combines two folate synthesis inhibitors, pyrimethamine and an antibacterial sulfamide (sulfadiazine or sulfadoxine). Despite the efficacy of this combination, the possibility of eventually severe side effects must also be taken into account.
Observation: A pancytopenia occurred at 37 weeks of amenorrhea during antenatal treatment for congenital toxoplasmosis in a tripara.
Data on clinical features observed in patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (WM) during follow-up remain limited. Therefore, we evaluated 860 follow-up procedures in 101 patients. Median age was 66 years and 5-year overall survival 72%, with a median follow-up of 36 months in surviving patients.
