Published: March 2025

Introduction: Antibody-based immunotherapies are a class of therapeutics under active investigation in clinical trials for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Our review provides a comprehensive examination of trials published to date, focusing on recurrent challenges and promising aspects of antibody-based therapeutics.

Areas Covered: We described antibody-based immunotherapies for AML, specifically, an overview of the most prominent antigen targets in published clinical trials investigating monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecific antibodies, and chimeric antigen receptor therapies. Manuscripts and abstracts describing clinical trials investigating antibody-based therapies for AML published through December 2024, identified by searching Google Scholar and PubMed were included.

Expert Opinion: Antibody-based immunotherapies for AML have encountered limitations, including imperfect target antigens with significant associated toxicity such as myelosuppression, in addition to challenges specific to the AML patient population. The majority of trials have targeted CD33, CD123, CD371 (CLL1/Clec12), and CD47. For successful implementation of antibody-based therapeutics in AML treatment future directions require creative applications of antibody-based therapeutics specifically engineered to minimize limiting toxicities and tailoring of therapies for this unique patient population.

Background: Acceptance and commitment therapy provides a psychobehavioral framework feasible for digital and hybrid weight loss interventions. In face-to-face studies, group-based interventions yield more favorable outcomes than individual interventions, but the effect of the intervention form has not been studied in combination with eHealth.

Objective: This study investigated whether a minimal, 3-session group or individual enhancement could provide additional benefits compared to an eHealth-only intervention when assessing weight, body composition, and laboratory metrics in a sample of occupational health patients with obesity.

Background: Conversational artificial intelligence (AI) allows for engaging interactions, however, its acceptability, barriers, and enablers to support patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) are unknown.

Objective: This work stems from the Coordinating Health care with AI-supported Technology for patients with AF (CHAT-AF) trial and aims to explore patient perspectives on receiving support from a conversational AI support program.

Methods: Patients with AF recruited for a randomized controlled trial who received the intervention were approached for semistructured interviews using purposive sampling.

Background: Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide. Treatments for this disease often result in side effects such as pain, fatigue, loss of muscle mass, and reduced quality of life. Physical exercise has been shown to effectively mitigate these side effects and improve the quality of life in patients with breast cancer.

The human genome project ushered in a genomic medicine era that was largely unimaginable three decades ago. Discoveries of druggable cancer drivers enabled biomarker-driven gene- and immune-targeted therapy and transformed cancer treatment. Minimizing treatment not expected to benefit, and toxicity-including financial and time-are important goals of modern oncology.

Aim(s): To investigate the impact of the absence of specific advice for oral fluid intake, compared to supplementation water intake on the occurrence of post-dural puncture headache.

Design: A prospective, open-label, non-inferiority, multicenter trial including hospitalized patients requiring a diagnostic lumbar puncture in seven hospitals in France.

Methods: Patients were randomly allocated (1:1) either to receive no specific advice on oral fluid intake (FREE-FLUID), or to be encouraged to drink 2 liters of water (CONTROL) within the 2 hours after lumbar puncture.
