Article Synopsis
  • Several genomic subsets of mutations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients were studied to understand their impact on outcomes and the underlying biology, revealing that type D mutations correlated with poorer survival rates compared to other types.
  • In a cohort of over 4,000 patients, a study found that those with type A, B, and rare variants had more favorable overall survival rates, while type D patients exhibited significantly worse outcomes.
  • The research highlighted that codon optimality in type D mutations affects gene expression and translation efficiency, leading to poorer prognostic implications and indicating the need for a potential reclassification of type D patients to higher-risk groups.

Article Synopsis
  • Despite initial treatment with midostaurin (MIDO) and chemotherapy in FLT3-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), many patients face relapses, with complete remission rates around 60-70% and over 40% relapsing.
  • A study of 150 patients with refractory/relapsed (R/R) AML revealed that those treated with MIDO showed lower persistence of FLT3-ITD mutations compared to those who did not receive MIDO (68% vs. 87.5%).
  • The study found that detecting multiple FLT3-ITD clones at diagnosis related to a higher persistence rate of these mutations at relapse, indicating the need for sensitive techniques in FLT3-

Background: Bidirectional interactions between eosinophils and mast cells (MCs) have been reported in various allergic diseases. Bone marrow (BM) eosinophilia, and to a lesser extent blood eosinophilia, is common in systemic mastocytosis (SM), but its significance remains unknown.

Objective: We described blood and BM eosinophil characteristics in SM.

The ongoing or anticipated therapeutic advances as well as previous experience in other malignancies, including acute myeloid leukaemia, have made molecular monitoring a potential interesting tool for predicting outcomes and demonstrating treatment efficacy in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The important genetic heterogeneity in MDS has made challenging the establishment of recommendations. In this context, high-throughput/next-generation sequencing (NGS) has emerged as an attractive tool, especially in patients with high-risk diseases.
