In this study hematological toxicity was analyzed after the single and repeated applications of tiazofurin (TZF). Cellularity of bone marrow, spleen and peripheral blood was examined, spanning the period of fifty days after the initial application. Analysis of hematological parameters was performed by slightly modified conventional techniques. The fraction of erythroid series was monitored during the experiment. Presented data describe kinetics of damage and recovery of hemopoietic tissue. Our results indicate that the effect of tiazofurin on cellularity of bone marrow and spleen and on erythropoiesis is reversible and dose dependent within tested dose range and therapeutic regimes. Twenty days after the application normal function of hemopoietic tissues was restored. This approach and results can be useful in defining the timing for sequencing and combination therapy with tiazofurin.

Targeted therapies, consisting of Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BTKis) or BCL-2 inhibitors, are the mainstay of contemporary treatments for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The most common adverse effects (AEs) of BTKis are fatigue, bruising, infection, hematological and cardiovascular AEs. While AEs during treatment are usually mild (grades 1 and 2), grade 3 and 4 AEs have been detected in some patients, necessitating additional medical care and temporary or permanent drug discontinuation.

The use of natural products for cancer treatment has a lengthy history. The safety and multifunctionality of naturally occurring substances have rendered them appropriate for cancer treatment. Curcumin influences multiple molecular pathways and is advantageous for treating both hematological and solid tumors.

The limited selectivity and high systemic toxicity of traditional chemotherapy hinder its efficacy in treating diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The combination of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) with chemotherapy has emerged as a novel strategy for cancer treatment, aiming to improve therapeutic outcomes and reduce systemic toxicity. However, challenges such as elevated drug clearance rates and non-selecitivity remain to be resolved.

Acovenoside A, a cardenolide glycoside from Acokanthera oppositifolia, demonstrates significant therapeutic potential in cardioprotection and oncology, particularly against non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, its toxicological profile requires thorough evaluation for safe pharmaceutical application. For this purpose a comprehensive in silico methods were applied, including ACD/Labs Percepta, STopTox, admetSAR 3.

Purpose: We designed a CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) comprising a calibrated signaling module, termed 1XX, that differs from that of conventional CD28/CD3ζ and 4-1BB/CD3ζ CARs. Preclinical data demonstrated that 1XX CARs generated potent effector function without undermining T-cell persistence. We hypothesized that 1XX CAR T cells may be effective at low doses and elicit minimal toxicities.
