Importance: Patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) or Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) resistant or intolerant to BCR-ABL1 tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have limited treatment options. Olverembatinib, which is approved in China, has only been tested in Chinese patients.
Objective: To assess the pharmacokinetics, safety, efficacy, and recommended dose of olverembatinib in patients with CML or Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL resistant or intolerant to at least 2 TKIs.
Background: Belantamab mafodotin had single-agent activity in patients with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma, a finding that supports further evaluation of the agent in combination with standard-care therapies.
Methods: In this phase 3, open-label, randomized trial, we evaluated belantamab mafodotin, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (BVd), as compared with daratumumab, bortezomib, and dexamethasone (DVd), in patients who had progression of multiple myeloma after at least one line of therapy. The primary end point was progression-free survival.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, clinical, radiological, and histopathological studies have provided evidence that organizing pneumonia is a possible consequence of the SARS-CoV2 infection. This post-COVID-19 organizing pneumonia (PCOP) causes persisting dyspnea, impaired pulmonary function, and produces radiological abnormalities for at least 5 weeks after onset of symptoms. While most patients with PCOP recover within a year after acute COVID-19, 5-25% of cases need specialized treatment.

Aim: Analysis of efficacy and safety of KRd in routine clinical practice.
Materials And Methods: The prospective analysis included patients with MM who received at least one line of previous therapy.
Background: Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare and clinically aggressive lymphoma subtype. Current approaches have greatly improved patients outcomes, but relapse is inevitable. In phase IIIII clinical trials, ibrutinib has shown significant activity in patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) MCL.
