The efficacy and safety of total marrow irradiation (TMI) plus a reduced dose of melphalan as autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) preconditioning for multiple myeloma (MM) patients were evaluated. The 11 patients with MM had a median age of 57 (range: 46-75) years; six of them were at standard risk and five of them were at high risk based on the Mayo Stratification of Myeloma and Risk-adapted Therapy (mSMART) standard risk factors. Before ASCT, three patients achieved stringent complete response (sCR), two patients achieved complete remission (CR), and the rest of the patients had either partial response (PR) or progressive disease.

BCR::ABL1-like B-lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) neoplasms lack the BCR::ABL1 translocation but have a gene expression profile like BCR::ABL1 positive B-ALL. This includes alterations in cytokine receptors and signalling genes, such as and Cases with CRLF2 rearrangements account for approximately 50% of cases of Philadelphia-like acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (Ph-like ALL), and the frequency of specific genomic lesions varies with ethnicity such that IGH::CRLF2 translocations are more common in Hispanics and Native Americans.We report two cases of BCR::ABL1-like ALL, with significant eosinophilia.

A 28-year-old woman was diagnosed with high-risk triple-expressor diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (stage IV, IPI 4, CNS-IPI 5), with lymph node and extranodal involvement. The patient underwent first-line R-CHOP treatment, achieving a partial response with residual mediastinal uptake. A second-line platinum-based therapy with a transplant plan followed, resulting in stable disease; thus, she was considered refractory and started third-line therapy with CAR-T cells, receiving additional chemotherapy as bridging therapy.

Background: Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have excellent outcomes, with >85% survival without relapse following contemporary therapies. Clinical and complete blood count (CBC) assessments are commonly used surveillance methods to detect relapses. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of routine blood testing for detecting relapse using a systematic method of assessing normal and abnormal results.

Background: Despite a wide range of available treatments, there is limited evidence as to why significant numbers of Crohn's disease (CD) patients do not achieve disease remission or continue to have residual symptom burden. We aimed to quantify the impact of this suboptimal treatment on patient symptom incidence and severity, quality of life (QoL), and work impairment.
Methods: Data were derived from the Adelphi Real World CD Disease Specific Programme, a cross-sectional survey of CD patients and their treating physicians in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States between January 2020 and March 2021.
