Signaling responses to cytokines are disrupted in clonal hematopoiesis and myeloid malignancies. To better identify specific signaling response alterations in the presence or absence of TET2, we developed a 36-parameter CyTOF panel of both surface marker and phosphoprotein antigens in murine BM. We show diverse, cell-type specific inflammatory cytokine responses in healthy hematopoietic cells.

Background: Olutasidenib is a potent, selective, oral, small molecule inhibitor of mutant IDH1 (mIDH1) which induced durable remissions in high-risk, relapsed/refractory (R/R) mIDH1 AML patients in a phase 1/2 trial. We present a pooled analysis from multiple cohorts of the phase 1/2 trial of patients with R/R AML who received combination olutasidenib and azacitidine therapy.

Methods: Adult patients with mIDH1 AML received 150 mg olutasidenib twice daily plus standard-of-care azacitidine (OLU + AZA) and were evaluated for response and safety.

We have developed a cost-effective DNA methylation sequencing assay to improve monitoring of clonal hematopoiesis. By inferring cell-type proportions, this method enhances interpretation of clonal trajectories compared to interpretation based on variant allele fraction only.

Cancer evolution is a multifaceted process leading to dysregulation of cellular expansion and differentiation through somatic mutations and epigenetic dysfunction. Clonal expansion and evolution is driven by cell-intrinsic and -extrinsic selective pressures, which can be captured with increasing resolution by single-cell and bulk DNA sequencing. Despite the extensive genomic alterations revealed in profiling studies, there remain limited experimental systems to model and perturb evolutionary processes.
