Optimization Processes of Clinical Chelation-Based Radiopharmaceuticals for Pathway-Directed Targeted Radionuclide Therapy in Oncology.

Targeted radionuclide therapy (TRT) for internal pathway-directed treatment is a game changer for precision medicine. TRT improves tumor control while minimizing damage to healthy tissue and extends the survival for patients with cancer. The application of theranostic-paired TRT along with cellular phenotype and genotype correlative analysis has the potential for malignant disease management.

From primary myelofibrosis to chronic myeloid leukemia, + B-Lymphoblastic leukemia, and back to primary myelofibrosis: An illustration of dynamic clonal evolution.

The simultaneous detection of :: and V617F was rarely reported and their clonal relationship and dynamic clonal shift were not characterized. Here, we described a unique case with the initial presentation as V617F+ primary myelofibrosis, followed by the emergence of + chronic myeloid leukemia. The patient then developed B-lymphoblastic leukemia.

Successful treatment of invasive tracheobronchial pulmonary aspergillosis with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and combined systemic, intratracheal instillation of liposomal amphotericin B: a case report.

Background: Invasive pulmonary Aspergillus and invasive bronchial aspergillosis is a life-threatening opportunistic fungal infection that predominantly affects immunocompromised hosts. A case series and review found that the mortality rate of invasive bronchial aspergillosis is high, at about 40%, and 23.7% of invasive bronchial aspergillosis patients require mechanical ventilator management.

Case Report: A Case of Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Complicated by Alopecia Areata.

Myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) are caused by genetic abnormalities in the stem cells and manifest with various systemic symptoms. Here, we describe a case of MPN complicated by alopecia areata. A 51-year-old woman visited our hematology department for further evaluation of a slight platelet elevation.

Acquired aplastic anemia complicated with anti-glomerular basement membrane disease successfully treated with immunosuppressive therapy: a case report.

Background: Aplastic anemia (AA) is a rare but fatal disorder characterized by pancytopenia due to bone marrow hypoplasia. Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM disease) is an immune complex small-vessel vasculitis that presents as rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis and/or pulmonary hemorrhage. Although both involve autoreactive T cells that are partially triggered by human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR15, there have been no reports of their co-existence and the treatment strategy is not well understood.

[Plasmablastic myeloma initially presented with ascites].

This paper reports a case of a 56-year-old male with IgG lambda plasmablastic myeloma exhibiting multiple chromosomal abnormalities. The patient initially presented with plasmablastic ascites and underwent early auto stem cell transplantation and achieved minimal residual disease-negative status but relapsed after 1.5 months and became refractory to novel drugs, such as proteasome inhibitor and daratumuab.

[Prognostic factors in light-chain cardiac amyloidosis: a retrospective analysis].

Among cases of amyloid light-chain (AL) amyloidosis, cardiac amyloidosis is particularly known to be associated with a poor prognosis. However, a few established prognostic indicators exist that consider other organ involvements and a patient's general condition. Between 2012 and 2019, we retrospectively reviewed 27 patients, who were diagnosed with AL amyloidosis at our hospital.

Retrospective Study of Acute Kidney Injury Incidence in Patients with Newly Diagnosed Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia.

Purpose: Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) constitutes 5-10% of all cases of newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia. However, data on the epidemiology and risk factors for acute kidney injury (AKI) in patients with newly diagnosed APL are lacking. This study determined the incidence rate of AKI during induction chemotherapy for patients with newly diagnosed APL and the risk factors for AKI.

Clinical and prognostic significance of t(4;14) translocation in multiple myeloma in the era of novel agents.

Translocation t(4;14) is an independent prognostic factor for adverse outcome in multiple myeloma (MM). However, reports concerning the therapeutic effects of novel drugs on t(4;14) MM are few. We retrospectively investigated the clinical and prognostic significance of symptomatic MM cases with t(4;14) treated with novel therapies.

JAK2 V617F-positive essential thrombocythemia with subsequent development of immune thrombocytopenia: A case report.

Rationale: Although essential thrombocythemia (ET) and immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) have different etiologies, 3 previous reports have described ET development in ITP patients, all of whom were positive for the JAK2 V617F mutation. Here, we report the first published case of ITP following ET in the absence of other platelet disorders.

Patient Concerns: A 70-year-old woman with a five-year history of ET with JAK2 V617F mutation treated with hydroxycarbamide for five months presented with petechiae on her limbs.
