Induction of neutralizing antibodies in CLL patients after SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccination: a monocentric experience.

Vaccination represents the best strategy to fight COVID-19 pandemics, especially in immune compromised subjects. In chronic lymphatic leukemia patients, a marked impairment of the immune response to mRNA SARS-CoV-2 vaccine was observed. In this report, we analyzed anti-RBD and neutralizing antibodies in CLL patients after two doses of mRNA SARS CoV 2 vaccine and evaluated the impact of Bruton kinase inhibitory agents.

Assessment of response to therapy in multiple myeloma by multiparameter flow cytometry. Usefulness of an eight-color single tube with monoclonal antibodies in dried formulation.

Objective: Multiparameter flow cytometry is considered the gold standard to evaluate minimal residual disease in multiple myeloma (MM) and patients in complete remission can achieve "Flow MRD-negative" status (i.e. immunophenotypically abnormal plasma cells not detectable).
