There have been several reports of dupilumab use and the development of CTCL; however, the risk of CTCL development has not been adequately evaluated at the population level. The objective of this study is to determine whether dupilumab administration for AD is associated with an increased risk of developing CTCL and to identify at-risk populations within this group. This retrospective cohort study used TriNetX, a deidentified medical record database including over 107 million patients, to identify eligible patients.

- Researchers are testing valemetostat, an EZH2 and EZH1 inhibitor, for safety and effectiveness in patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, due to limited treatment options and poor outcomes.
- The study involved 90 participants from 19 hospitals across Japan and the USA, who received varying doses of valemetostat in a phase 1 clinical trial to find the right dosage and assess its anti-tumor effects.
- Initial findings will help determine the most effective dosages and provide insights into the drug's safety profile, with a majority of patients having peripheral T-cell lymphoma.
Clinical trials with single-agent venetoclax/ABT-199 (anti-apoptotic BCL2 inhibitor) revealed that diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is not solely dependent on BCL2 for survival. Gaining insight into pathways/proteins that increase venetoclax sensitivity or unique vulnerabilities in venetoclax-resistant DLBCL would provide new potential treatment avenues. Therefore, we generated acquired venetoclax-resistant DLBCL cells and evaluated these together with intrinsically venetoclax-resistant and -sensitive DLBCL lines.
