Renal failure is a common feature of multiple myeloma (MM) that occurs in 20%-40% of newly diagnosed patients with MM and is the result of monoclonal immunoglobulin light chains. Many studies have examined the effect of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in MM patients with renal impairment and the safety of performing the transplantation in patients with renal failure. This study aimed to compare renal function before and after ASCT in Egyptian MM patients with renal insufficiency to evaluate the effect of ASCT on renal recovery.

Background: With the exception of the FDA-approved valrubicin and pembrolizumab, there are no standard second-line treaments for BCG-unresponsive high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).
Objectives: To provide a systematic review of the novel intravesically administered therapeutic agents for the salvage treatment of BCG-unresponsive NMIBC.
Methods: Online search of the PubMed, EMBASE and Web of Science databases was performed.

HLA alleles are representative of ethnicities and may play important roles in predisposition to hematological disorders. We analyzed DNA samples for HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 loci, from 1550 patients and 4450 potential related donors by PCR-SSO (Polymerase chain reaction sequence-specific oligonucleotides) and estimated allele frequencies in donors and patients from 1550 families who underwent bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in Egypt. We also studied the association between HLA allele frequencies and incidence of acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and severe aplastic anemia.

Bladder cancer (BC) is the 10th most common cancer in the world. The therapeutic spectrum of BC is broad and is constantly expanding. Despite the wide clinical use of photodynamic diagnosis (PTD) for BC, PDT has not been sufficiently investigated in the treatment landscape of BC.
