Continuous Monitoring of Psychosocial Stress by Non-Invasive Volatilomics.

Stress is becoming increasingly commonplace in modern times, making it important to have accurate and effective detection methods. Currently, detection methods such as self-evaluation and clinical questionnaires are subjective and unsuitable for long-term monitoring. There have been significant studies into biomarkers such as HRV, cortisol, electrocardiography, and blood biomarkers, but the use of multiple electrodes for electrocardiography or blood tests is impractical for real-time stress monitoring.

Multicenter Long-Term Follow-Up of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation with Omidubicel: A Pooled Analysis of Five Prospective Clinical Trials.

Omidubicel is an umbilical cord blood (UCB)-derived ex vivo-expanded cellular therapy product that has demonstrated faster engraftment and fewer infections compared with unmanipulated UCB in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Although the early benefits of omidubicel have been established, long-term outcomes remain unknown. We report on a planned pooled analysis of 5 multicenter clinical trials including 105 patients with hematologic malignancies or sickle cell hemoglobinopathy who underwent omidubicel transplantation at 26 academic transplantation centers worldwide.

Dual targeting fixed duration frontline monoclonal antibody therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia: A phase 2 study.

This phase 2 study describes long-term clinical and immunological effects of fixed-duration ofatumumab (anti-CD20) and alemtuzumab (anti-CD52) combination immunotherapy in 52 patients with previously untreated CLL. The median age was 65 years (range 45-79), 60% had Rai stage 3-4, 40% were IgHV unmutated and 25% had del(17p)/TP53 mutation. Alemtuzumab was given subcutaneously (30 mg tiw, 18 weeks) and ofatumumab intravenously (300-2000 mg) starting week 3 q2 weeks (8 doses).
