AI Article Synopsis

  • - The study assessed how preemptive multigene pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing could affect medication prescriptions in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT).
  • - It was found that a significant percentage of PCI (66.5%) and allo-HCT (90.1%) patients were prescribed at least one medication with actionable PGx recommendations.
  • - Simulations indicated that implementing multigene PGx testing could create numerous opportunities for personalized medication choices, potentially improving treatment beyond just standard drugs like clopidogrel and tacrolimus.

Article Abstract

To evaluate the potential impact of preemptive multigene pharmacogenomic (PGx) testing on medication prescribing in real-world clinical settings. Prescription frequencies for 65 medications with actionable PGx recommendations were collected in 215 percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and 131 allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (allo-HCT) patients. A simulation projected the number of PGx-guided prescribing opportunities. In PCI and allo-HCT patients, respectively, 66.5 and 90.1% were prescribed at least one medication with actionable PGx prescribing recommendations. Simulations projected 26.5 and 41.2 total PGx-guided prescribing opportunities per 100 PCI and allo-HCT patients, respectively, if multigene PGx results were available. A multigene PGx testing strategy offers potential to optimize medication prescribing beyond clopidogrel and tacrolimus in PCI and allo-HCT patients.

Introduction: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) involves a long trajectory with high risk of complications. In person-centred care (PCC), patients' needs, resources and the care relationship are central to the care process. Healthcare professionals' (HCPs) ratings of PCC have not previously been investigated in this context.

Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a potential cure for many hematological malignancies. Historically, older adults were not considered eligible for allo-HCT due to increased toxicity and mortality concerns. This systematic review and meta-analysis aim to explore the outcomes of allo-HCT in patients aged 70 years or older.

Optimized GVHD Prevention in HLA-Mismatched Unrelated Allogeneic HCT Using a PTCY-Based Approach.

Eur J Haematol

Hematopoietic Transplantation Unit, Hematology Department, Clinical Institute of Hematology and Oncology (ICMHO), Hospital Clínic de Barcelona, Barcelona, Spain.

Although post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY)-based prophylaxis has become a widely adopted strategy for preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in 9 out of 10 HLA-mismatched unrelated donors (MMUDs), allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplants (allo-HCTs), data on the safety and efficacy of PTCY in this setting remain limited. This single-center study investigates the outcomes of 94 adults with hematological malignancies undergoing MMUD allo-HCT with PTCY and tacrolimus (Tac) (PTCY-Tac) between 2014 and 2023. The median age was 53 years, and 60.

Background: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a pivotal treatment modality for primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL). We aimed to examine the outcomes of allogeneic (allo) and autologous (auto) HCT in adult pPCL patients.

Methods: Following PRISMA guidelines, a comprehensive literature search was performed on PubMed, Cochrane, Embase, and Clinicaltrials.
