Article Abstract

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative approach for patients with certain hematological diseases, including several forms of lymphoma and leukemia. Besides several treatment-associated risks, transplanted patients are at an increased risk of developing osteoporosis. The underlying pathophysiology is complex and includes factors influenced directly by the disease as well as applied therapies like irradiation, chemotherapy and adjuvant immunosuppressive agents. In addition, patients are prone to secondary hypogonadism, and many patients will require long-term glucocorticoid therapy to mitigate graft-versus-host reactions. All these factors contribute to bone loss, but the individual risk profile may vary greatly. This review summarizes our knowledge on bone loss following allogenic HCT and provides screening and treatment recommendations.

Introduction: CD7 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T cell) therapy is an emerging method for treating hematological malignancies, and is another breakthrough in CAR-T cell therapy.

Methods: This study summarizes the currently published clinical research results on CD7 CAR-T cells and evaluates the safety and effectiveness of CD7 CAR-T cell therapy.

Results: Among the 13 studies included in this study, a total of 200 patients received CD7 CAR-T cell therapy, including 88 patients who received autologous CAR-T cells, 112 patients who received donor derived CAR-T cells.

Background: Female recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation are at high risk of developing human papillomavirus (HPV)-associated lesions and (pre)cancer. We describe the results of a cervical cancer screening program in these women.

Methods: From 2010 to 2022, 70 female recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in our institution entered a standardized protocol of gynecological evaluation.

The aim of this study was to develop and validate a nomogram predicting progression-free survival (PFS) for adult patients with positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia(Ph + ALL) who have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT) and tyrosine kinase inhibitor(TKI) treatment. Data were retrospectively collected from 176 adult patients diagnosed with Ph + ALL and treated with allo-HSCT and TKIs at The First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, between January 2015 and May 2023. 70% of the patients were randomly assigned to the training group(n = 124) and 30% of the patients were assigned to the validation group(n = 52).

Treatment options for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) have increased in the era of targeted therapies such as brentuximab vedotin (BV) and Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK) inhibitors. However, there is no standard treatment and limited published data evaluating their use. The goal of this retrospective study is to describe current real-world treatment and outcomes of pediatric, adolescent, and young adult patients with R/R ALK-positive ALCL.

Donor cell leukemia (DCL), in which malignancy evolves from donor's stem cells, is an infrequent complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) derived from donor cell is extremely rare and only four cases have been reported to date. Herein we report a case of donor cell-derived APL developing 32 months after haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation using posttransplant cyclophosphamide for myelodysplastic syndromes.
