Addition of chemotherapy to nivolumab after PD-1 inhibitor failure as bridge to allogeneic stem cell transplantation in classical Hodgkin's lymphoma: report on three cases and literature review.

The poor prognosis of refractory or relapsed (R/R) classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (cHL) after autologous stem cell transplantation has improved greatly due to the introduction of brentuximab vedotin and PD-1 inhibitors. However, the duration of response achieved with these novel agents is too short. The information about the management of patients after anti-PD-1 therapy failure is very limited in cHL, although chemotherapy alone or combined with PD-1 inhibitors has shown encouraging results.

Multiparameter Flow Cytometry Identification of Neoplastic Subclones: A New Biomarker in Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance and Multiple Myeloma.

Multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC)-based clonality assessment is a powerful method of diagnosis and follow-up in monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and multiple myeloma (MM). However, the relevance of intraclonal heterogeneity in immunophenotypic studies remains poorly understood. The main objective of this work was to characterize the different immunophenotypic subclones in MGUS and MM patients and to investigate their correlation with disease stages.

Successful discontinuation of eltrombopag after complete remission in patients with primary immune thrombocytopenia.

Eltrombopag is effective and safe in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Some patients may sustain their platelet response when treatment is withdrawn but the frequency of this phenomenon is unknown. We retrospectively evaluated 260 adult primary ITP patients (165 women and 95 men; median age, 62 years) treated with eltrombopag after a median time from diagnosis of 24 months.
