Ruxolitinib plus steroids for acute graft versus host disease: a multicenter, randomized, phase 3 trial.

Newly diagnosed patients with high-risk acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) often experience poor clinical outcomes and low complete remission rates. Ruxolitinib with corticosteroids showed promising efficacy in improving response and failure free survival in our phase I study. This study (ClinicalTrials.

Addition of ruxolitinib and decitabine to modified busulfan/cyclophosphamide conditioning regimen for prophylaxis relapse in high-risk acute myeloid leukemia: the phase 2 prospective study.

The prognosis of patients with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is dismal even after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), with relapse remaining the leading cause of treatment failure. Here, we investigated whether ruxolitinib and decitabine plus modified busulfan-cyclophosphamide (mBu/Cy) conditioning could reduce relapse in high-risk AML after allo-HSCT. This prospective, single-arm, phase II trial enrolled 37 patients who received allo-HSCT between September 2020 and March 2022 at the First Medical Center of Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) General Hospital.

Patients Beyond the Optimal Range of rATG-AUC Still Benefit from the Targeted Dosing Strategy in Unmanipulated Haplo-PBSCT.

Rabbit antithymocyte globulin (rATG) is widely used in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to prevent graft failure and severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We developed a rATG-targeted dosing strategy based on the optimal areas under the concentration-time curve (AUC) of active rATG. This study compared the outcomes of the optimal AUC arm with nonoptimal AUC arm to assess the effect of the rATG-targeted dosing strategy.

Targeted dosing of anti-thymocyte globulin in adult unmanipulated haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation: A single-arm, phase 2 trial.

Anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) is widely used in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation to prevent severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and graft failure. However, overexposure to ATG may increase cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation, non-relapse mortality, and disease recurrence. To investigate the optimal dosing of ATG, we established a targeted dosing strategy based on ATG concentration monitoring for haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT).

[The Prognostic Value of FOSB Gene in Acute Myeloid Leukemia].

Unlabelled: AbstractObjective: To analyze the expression of FOSB in acute myeloid leukemia （AML） and its correlation with prognosis of the patient based on the large sample data.

Methods: The genome, transcriptome, gene chip and clinical information from multiple public databases were statistical analyzed.

Results: The expression of FOSB gene in AML patients was significantly higher than that in normal people.

Co-Administration with Voriconazole Doubles the Exposure of Ruxolitinib in Patients with Hematological Malignancies.

Background: Ruxolitinib is newly approved for glucocorticoid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in patients undergoing allo-geneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), and voriconazole is commonly used in allo-HSCT recipients for the prophylaxis or treatment of invasive fungal infections (IFIs). Drug-drug interaction (DDI) may occur between them because their metabolic pathways overlap and can be inhibited by voriconazole, including cytochrome P450 (CYP) isozymes 3A4 and 2C9.

Objective: In the present study, we aimed to investigate the DDI between ruxolitinib and voriconazole in patients with hematological malignancies.
