Philadelphia-chromosome positive thrombocythemia without features of chronic myeloid leukemia in peripheral blood has been described before. However, there are few reports on Philadelphia-chromosome positive chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis. We present a case of Philadelphia positive chronic idiopathic myelofibrosis that had no obvious response to imatinib.

Background/aims: To determine the effectiveness of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) plus reduced-intensity therapy in adult patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-positive ALL), this retrospective study compared treatment outcomes and induction mortality according to backbone regimen intensity.

Methods: The data of 132 patients diagnosed with Ph-positive ALL were retrospectively collected from five centers. Patients received imatinib plus intensive chemotherapy (modified VPD, KALLA1407, or hyper-CVAD) or reduced-intensity chemotherapy (EWALL) for curative purposes.

Chronic myeloid leukemia and Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients largely benefit from an expanding tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) toolbox that has improved the outcome of both diseases. However, TKI success is continuously challenged by mutation-driven acquired resistance and therefore, close monitoring of clonal genetic diversity is necessary to ensure proper clinical management and adequate response to treatment. Here, we report the case of a ponatinib-resistant Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL) patient harboring a BCR::ABL1 p.

The most frequent type of leukemia in Africa is chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). The genetic background of the rarer Philadelphia chromosome (Ph) Ph-ve (BCR-ABL-ve) subform of CML is largely unknown in African patients. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to investigate the role of CYP1A1 and 2D6 SNPs in the pathogenesis of Ph-ve CML in the Sudanese population.

Article Synopsis
  • The objective of the study was to harvest primary Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph) cells from B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and create a B-ALL mouse model.
  • Methods included infecting bone marrow cells from C57BL/6J mice with a retrovirus, followed by the transplantation of transfected cells into irradiated mice, resulting in the establishment of multiple generations of Ph cells.
  • The results showed significant health deterioration in the mice post-transplant, with pathological features such as weight loss and leukemic cell infiltration in the liver, confirming the successful creation of a B-ALL mouse model through progressive passages of Ph cells.
