Purpose: In this study, we investigate renal function and anaemia during imatinib treatment in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia.
Methods: The patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia with chronic phase who had been treated with only imatinib for 12 months at Rajiv Gandhi Cancer Institute and Research Centre (New Delhi, India) were enrolled and prospectively analysed. The chronic renal impairment parameters, including estimated glomerular filtration rate and haemoglobin levels for anaemia from June 2020 to June 2022, were monitored in newly diagnosed in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia-chronic phase. The data were analysed by SPSS software version 22.
Results: In total 55 patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia chronic phase who had been on imatinib for 12 months were monitored. The mean estimated glomerular filtration rate was significantly decreased (74 ± 14 to 59 ± 12 mL/min/1.73m, p < 0.001) with a decrease in mean haemoglobin levels after 12 months (10.9 ± 2.01 to 9.0 ± 1.02, p < 0.004). The decreased estimated glomerular filtration rate was negatively correlated with haemoglobin levels after 1 year of imatinib administration (correlation coefficient = 0.892, R = 0.7976, p < 0.05).
Conclusion: We recommended close monitoring of renal function and haemoglobin levels in patients with chronic myeloid leukaemia patients.

Individuals with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) or small lymphocytic lymphoma (SLL) have a high risk of developing other malignancies (OMs). The development of OMs may be associated with the advanced age of CLL/SLL patients, presence of a tumor-promoting microenvironment, immune alterations inherent to CLL/SLL, or chemotherapy. Importantly, the occurrence of OMs following frontline fludarabine, cyclophosphamide and rituximab (FCR) treatment is associated with a reduction in the overall survival (OS).

Background: Multiple factors have been described to influence the risk of acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD or cGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), including underlying chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and high-dose total body irradiation (TBI). However, the impact of the underlying disease or low-dose TBI on the risk of GVHD in the modern era has not been determined.
Objective: To determine risk factors for GVHD in the modern era in the setting of antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-based GVHD prophylaxis.

An 8 yr old, male, mixed-breed dog was presented with a 2 mo history of progressive weakness, worsened in the last 2 days before examination. Neurological examination revealed ambulatory tetraparesis, ataxia, and proprioceptive deficits in all four limbs. Menace response was reduced in the right eye and discomfort was detected on neck manipulation.

One of the most remarkable achievements of the TKI era has been the capacity to induce deep molecular remissions that are sustainable off therapy in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients - treatment-free remission (TFR). TFR was first described in a handful of patients within 3-4 years of imatinib approval. In 2004 TFR was tested in a small French pilot study, followed soon after by the French STIM and Australasian TWISTER studies.
