Secondary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) syndrome, a fatal disorder characterized by NK/T-cell deficiency, cytokine storm, and organ damage, is rare in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Ibrutinib, the first generation of irreversible Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, has been the first-line therapy for CLL. As an off-target effect, it can also block IL-2 inducible T-cell kinase (ITK), which is essential in maintaining normal NK and T-cell functions.

There is a growing pharmaceutical interest in supersaturated lipid-based formulations (Super-LbF) as an innovative strategy to enhance drug loading capacities while simultaneously reducing pill burden. This approach involves increasing the drug concentration above its equilibrium solubility in a lipid solution, achieved through temperature-induced supersaturation or the dissolution of lipophilic ionic salts. However, the physical instability and potential drug precipitation upon the dispersion of LbF remain critical.

An Ara-C-containing intensified induction therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is considered a highly effective treatment strategy in younger mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) patients, inducing long-lasting remissions. However, ASCT is also hampered by acute and delayed toxicity. Thus, alternative first-line treatment strategies without ASCT but including novel agents are under investigation.

Frontline therapy for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) has substantially advanced in the previous decade. While monotherapy with a Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitor is an excellent option for many patients, combination therapies are of high clinical interest as they can induce deep responses and durable remissions, and in many cases allow discontinuation of therapy. There are several doublet therapies that are currently in clinical use.

Purpose: Although the B-cell receptor (BCR) signal plays a critical role in CLL cell survival and a target of current therapies (ibrutinib targets Bruton's tyrosine kinase; idelalisib targets PI3Kδ), contribution of the cytokine-driven JAK2 pathway to the "CLL cell-survival signaling network" is largely undefined.
Experimental Design: CLL patients were enrolled to investigate expression/activation of JAK2 and acylglycerol kinase (AGK), and their functional implication in primary CLL cell survival. A series of biochemical and molecular biology assays were employed to uncover the underlying mechanism.
