Daratumumab is very efficacious in multiple myeloma. Few reports are present about efficacy in extramedullary myeloma. We report here daratumumab efficacy in extramedullary ocular myeloma in a young 46-year-old man diagnosed 3 years earlier and relapse refractory to five previous lines of therapy.

Prominent efficacy and good safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T therapy in relapsed/refractory adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

Exp Hematol Oncol

January 2025

Bone Marrow Transplantation Center of The First Affiliated Hospital Liangzhu Laboratory, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, No. 79 Qingchun Road, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.

Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.

Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).

Background: The prognosis of multiple myeloma involving the central nervous system (CNS-MM) is poor. We report outcomes of CNS-MM treated with CNS-directed radiation therapy (RT).

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed patients with CNS-MM treated with CNS-directed RT from 2015 to 2024.

Clinical outcomes and safety of CAR-T cells in treatment of T-Cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma.

Ann Hematol

December 2024

National Clinical Research Center for Hematologic Diseases, Jiangsu Institute of Hematology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Suzhou, China.

Relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (r/r T-ALL/LBL) are frequently aggressive and associated with unfavorable prognoses. Pan-targeted Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy have shown promising results in clinical trials. In recent years, CD7 CAR T-cell and CD5 CAR T-cell demonstrate effectiveness in treating r/r T-ALL/LBL patients with bone marrow infiltration.

Hypomethylating agents (HMAs), such as decitabine and 5-azacytidine (AZA), are valuable treatment options for patients with acute myeloid leukemia that are ineligible for intensive chemotherapy. Despite providing significant extensions in survival when used alone or in combination, eventual relapse and resistance to HMAs are observed. The mechanisms leading to these outcomes are still not well defined and may, in part, be due to a focus on leukemic populations with limited information on the effects of HMAs on non-leukemic cells in the blood and other tissue compartments.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study evaluated the effectiveness of one-piece resection for treating ventral intradural extramedullary spinal meningiomas (VIESMs) by analyzing demographic and surgical data from patients treated between January 2017 and December 2023.
  • - A total of 27 patients (average age 63.37) underwent the procedure, with results showing no recurrences on MRI and significant improvement in neurological status for 74.07% of the cases, although one patient faced cerebrospinal fluid leakage.
  • - The findings conclude that one-piece resection is a safe and effective method for VIESMs, emphasizing techniques like maintaining a clear surgical corridor and careful dural coagulation to minimize complications and recurrence.
