A case of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after successful therapy for Hodgkin's disease (HD) is reported. The patient was diagnosed with stage IIB HD at the age of 25. She was treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy (RT), and complete remission (CR) was achieved. Seven months after the CR was obtained the patient developed AML. Knowing that the prognosis of patients with secondary AML (sAML) after primary HD is poor we decided to perform autologous peripheral stem cells' transplantation.

Precision, or personalised medicine has advanced requirements for medical data management systems (MedDMSs). MedDMS for precision medicine should be able to process hundreds of parameters from multiple sites, be adaptable while remaining in sync at multiple locations, real-time syncing to analytics and be compliant with international privacy legislation. This paper describes the LogiqSuite software solution, aimed to support a precision medicine solution at the patient care (LogiqCare), research (LogiqScience) and data science (LogiqAnalytics) level.

This study investigated whether the neddylation inhibitor MLN4924 induces aberrant DNA methylation patterns in acute myeloid leukemia and contributes to the reactivation of tumor suppressor genes. DNA methylation profiles of Kasumi-1 and KU812 acute myeloid leukemia cell lines before and after MLN4924 treatment were generated using the 850K Methylation BeadChip. RNA sequencing was used to obtain transcriptomic profiles of Kasumi-1 cells.

Recipient sex and donor leukemic cell characteristics determine leukemogenesis in patient-derived models.

In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), leukemogenesis depends on cell-intrinsic genetic aberrations and thus, studies on AML require investigations in an in vivo setting as provided by patient derived xenografts (PDX) models. Here we report that, next to leukemic cell characteristics, recipient sex highly influences the outgrowth of AML cells in PDX models, with females being much better repopulated than males in primary as well as secondary transplantation assays. Testosterone may be the more important player since, strikingly, better engraftment was seen in castrated versus control male recipients, while ovariectomy did not significantly impair engraftment in females.
