The mutations in and genes are frequently present in various myeloid neoplasms. The potential impact of / co-mutations on patient survival is incompletely understood. We identified 412 patients with / co-mutations from our NextGen sequencing database of around 8000 patients and reported likely the largest cohort study. Our study demonstrated the presence of these co-mutations in a spectrum of myeloid neoplasms, which show different genetic and molecular characteristics. Most of the patients with these co-mutations had normal karyotype. Interestingly, our study provided insights into the prevalence of additional mutations such as , , and with this co-mutation and their potential impact on patients' prognosis. We found that , , and can negatively impact these patients' survival with different impacts in different morphological diagnosis categories, suggesting a complex interaction between these genes. This study underscores the need for personalized approaches in the treatment of myeloid neoplasms.

Background: Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a highly chemo-refractory and immune-evasive tumor that presents a median overall survival of 12-14 months when treated with chemotherapy and immunotherapy. New anti-tumor therapies as well as the concomitant reactivation of immune destruction are urgently needed to treat patients with this tumor. The aim of this work is to investigate the potential effect of ecteinascidin derivatives as lurbinectedin as new first-line treatment option in MPM, alone and in combination with immunotherapy.

Synovial sarcoma is an aggressive soft-tissue cancer that shows limited responses to current immunotherapeutic approaches using immune checkpoint blockade or adoptive cell therapy. To improve immunotherapy for this cancer, understanding how the immune cells in the tumor microenvironment associate with histological subtype, disease progression and current therapies is vital. To evaluate the immune infiltrate in synovial sarcoma in relation to histological subtype, disease progression and in response to cytotoxic treatment, we performed immunodetection of T cells, CD68 myeloid cells, endothelial cells and keratin on a series of 41 synovial sarcoma patients at various stages of disease.

Homeobox (HOX) transcript antisense RNA (HOTAIR) and HOX genes are reported to be more expressed in various cancers in humans in recent studies. The role of HOTAIR and HOXD genes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is not well known. In this study, expression levels of HOXD8, HOXD9 and HOXD11 from HOXD gene family and HOTAIR were determined from peripheral blood samples of 30 AML and 30 CML patients and 20 healthy volunteers by quantitative Real Time PCR.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) emerge as critical regulators of CD8 + T cell function within the complex tumor microenvironment (TME). This review explores the multifaceted interplay between miRNAs and CD8 + T cells across various cancers. We discuss how specific miRNAs influence CD8 + T cell activation, recruitment, infiltration, and effector function.

Background: Dose reduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is an option for some chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients to minimize side effects while maintaining efficacy. Shared decision-making (SDM) and patient decision aids (PDAs) are advocated to make informed choices such as reducing the dose of TKIs. This paper describes the development and alpha-testing of a PDA for patients with CML receiving TKI dose reduction.
