Somatic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) were recently demonstrated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but their prevalence and prognostic impact remain to be explored in large extensively characterized AML series, and also in various other hematologic malignancies. Here, we demonstrate in 893 newly diagnosed cases of AML mutations in the IDH1 (6%) and IDH2 (11%) genes. Moreover, we identified IDH mutations in 2 JAK2 V617F myeloproliferative neoplasias (n = 96), a single case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n = 96), and none in chronic myeloid leukemias (n = 81). In AML, IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are more common among AML with normal karyotype and NPM1(mutant) genotypes. IDH1 mutation status is an unfavorable prognostic factor as regards survival in a composite genotypic subset lacking FLT3(ITD) and NPM1(mutant). Thus, IDH1 and IDH2 mutations are common genetic aberrations in AML, and IDH1 mutations may carry prognostic value in distinct subtypes of AML.

Background: Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) inhibitors hold promise for IDH-mutated cancer patients and demonstrated favorable clinical efficacy. Nonetheless, a comprehensive understanding of the associated toxicities of IDH inhibitors remains notably lacking.
Research Design And Methods: This pharmacovigilance analysis utilized the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database to assess notable adverse events (AEs) attributed to IDH inhibitors (enasidenib and ivosidenib) from January 2018 to December 2023.

Ethnopharmacological Relevance: Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), as a complex, multisystemic, and multisystemic disorder affecting multiple organs and systems, often accompanies by symptoms such as post-exercise discomfort, sleep disorders, cognitive difficulties, and orthostatic intolerance. Jingfang Granule (JFG) is a traditional Chinese medicine that have significant protective effects on CFS, but the mechanism is still vague.
Aim Of Study: This study was designed to evaluate the protective mechanism of JFG on mice with CFS.

Background: Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) gene alterations and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treatment results remain controversial. This study reviews the literature on IDH mutations in AML to determine the foundation of individualized therapy and improve effectiveness, survival time, and recurrence rate.
Methods: Seven English and 2 Chinese databases were searched for literature on IDH mutations and AML outcomes.

In addition to the histological diagnosis, grade and stage, predictive testing plays a crucial role in gastrointestinal tumours today. This is mainly used to identify molecular targets for modern cancer therapy. In esophageal and gastric cancers, HER2 expression and amplification, mismatch repair (MMR) system protein deficiency and PD-L1 expression are tested routinely.

The ongoing development of molecularly targeted therapies in addition to the new standard of care combination of azacitidine and venetoclax (AZA-VEN) has transformed the prognostic outlook for older, transplant-ineligible patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). While conventional treatments, such as standard anthracycline and cytarabine- based chemotherapy or hypomethylating agent (HMA) monotherapy, are associated with a generally poor prognosis in this patient population, the use of these novel regimens can result in long-lasting, durable remissions in select patient subgroups. Furthermore, the simultaneous discovery of resistance mechanisms to targeted therapies and AZA-VEN has enabled the identification of patient subgroups with inferior outcomes, leading to the development, of new risk-stratification models and clinical investigations incorporating targeted therapies using an HMA-VEN-based platform.
