Article Abstract
A patient with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) had persistent, progressive pneumonia with viremia after 5 months of infection despite monoclonal antibodies, intravenous (IV) remdesivir and prolonged oral steroids. Twenty days of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir and 10 days of IV remdesivir led to full recovery.

Survival Outcomes for Adolescent and Young Adults With Cancer in Low- and Middle-Income Countries: A Systematic Review.
JCO Glob Oncol
January 2025
Division of Haematology/Oncology, The Hospital for Sick Children, Toronto, Canada.
Purpose: Patients with adolescent and young adult (AYA) cancer are recognized as a vulnerable subpopulation in high-income countries (HICs). Although survival gaps between HIC and low- and middle-income country (LMIC) children with cancer are well described, LMIC AYAs have been neglected. We conducted a systematic review to describe cancer outcomes among LMIC AYAs.

Department of Hematology, The 920th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force, No.212, Da Guan Road, Xishan District, Kunming, 650100, Yunnan, China.
Background: The treatment of relapsed/refractory T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R T-ALL) is a significant challenge in hematologic oncology, and no standard salvage treatment plan exists. Both Chinese and international clinical guidelines recommend combination chemotherapy including venetoclax.
Methods: Efficacy and safety of venetoclax, azacitidine, homoharringtonine, cytarabine, and aclarubicin (VA-HAA) combination therapy were retrospectively analyzed in 3 patients with R/R T-ALL at the Department of Hematology, 920th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force, Chinese People's Liberation Army.
A complete response with daratumumab, venetoclax, azacitidine and dexamethasone in a heavily pre-treated, chemo-refractory early T-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma patient.

Department of Hematology, Faculty of Medicine, Istanbul Medipol University, Istanbul, Turkey.
Early T-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (ETP-ALL/LBL) is a rare and aggressive subtype of T-cell leukemia with poor prognosis and resistance to standard treatments. We report a 21-year-old male with ETP-ALL/LBL who, after an initial complete remission with the HOELZER protocol, experienced early relapse and was refractory to subsequent FLEND and BFM protocols. Following disease progression and complications, he was treated with a combination of daratumumab, venetoclax, azacitidine, and dexamethasone.

Acta Endocrinol (Buchar)
January 2025
Dokuz Eylül University, Faculty of Medicine, Division of Pediatric Endocrinology.
Context: Osteonecrosis (ON) is bone death caused by inadequate blood supply and its optimal management remains uncertain.
Objective: We describe the outcomes of BP (pamidronate) treatment in our patients.
Design: Data regarding clinical, laboratory, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies, and bone mineral density measurements (BMD) were recorded before and one year after treatment (reevaluation).
Presence of minimal residual disease determined by next-generation sequencing is not a reliable prognostic biomarker in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The role of next-generation sequencing (NGS) for minimal residual disease (MRD) assessment in pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is still under consideration. Fifty pediatric patients were prospectively evaluated for specific clonal rearrangements of immunoglobulin and T-cell receptor genes using NGS analysis at diagnosis and on days 33 and 78 from therapy onset. The prognostic value or the NGS-MRD status was analyzed after a median follow-up of 4 years.
