Incidence, description, and timing of serious and opportunistic infections in patients with hairy cell leukemia.

Hairy cell leukemia is an uncommon B-cell malignancy with excellent response to purine analogs and to targeted therapies such as ibrutinib and vemurafenib. However, purine analogs are known to be highly immunosuppressive and the infection burden in this patient population with current therapies is unknown. We therefore conducted a retrospective cohort study following 149 patients.

Neutralization escape of Omicron XBB, BR.2, and BA.2.3.20 subvariants.

New Omicron subvariants continue to emerge throughout the world. In particular, the XBB subvariant, which is a recombinant virus between BA.2.

Enhanced evasion of neutralizing antibody response by Omicron XBB.1.5, CH.1.1, and CA.3.1 variants.

Omicron subvariants continuingly challenge current vaccination strategies. Here, we demonstrate nearly complete escape of the XBB.1.
