A strong temporal correlation was observed between cessation of cimetidine and a sustained increase in blood counts in two marrow transplant recipients. Both were receiving cimetidine from the day of transplantation for prophylaxis of stress ulceration and gastritis. The blood counts of both patients were not increasing satisfactorily 5-6 weeks after marrow transplantation without any obvious cause of marrow suppression. A similar observation has been made with the use of ranitidine after marrow transplantation suggesting that histamine H2-receptor antagonists should be used very cautiously, if at all, in the setting of bone marrow transplantation.

Prominent efficacy and good safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T therapy in relapsed/refractory adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Exp Hematol Oncol
January 2025
Bone Marrow Transplantation Center of The First Affiliated Hospital Liangzhu Laboratory, Zhejiang University School of Medicine, No. 79 Qingchun Road, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China.
Background: Sequential CD19 and CD22 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T cell therapy offers a promising approach to antigen-loss relapse in relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL); however, research in adults remains limited.
Methods: This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sequential CD19 and CD22 CAR-T cell therapy in adult patients with R/R B-ALL between November 2020 and November 2023 (ChiCTR2100053871). Key endpoints included the adverse event incidence, overall survival (OS), and leukemia-free survival (LFS).
Evaluation of renal functional reserve with oral protein load or new ultrasound test.

Background: Renal functional reserve (RFR) measures the difference between the stimulated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and the baseline GFR to detect early signs of renal functional decline. The protein load test (RFR-T) is the gold standard for RFR assessment but is a complicated procedure. Renal intraparenchymal resistance index (RRI) variation test (DRRI-T) is a non-invasive method to measure renal function reserve using ultrasound.

Clinical Complications and Healthcare Resource Utilization Associated with Conventional Management of Sickle Cell Disease with Recurrent Vaso-occlusive Crises and Transfusion-Dependent β-Thalassemia in Germany.
Pharmacoecon Open
January 2025
Division of Pediatric Stem Cell Therapy, Department of Pediatric Oncology, Hematology and Clinical Immunology, Medical Faculty, Heinrich-Heine-University, Duesseldorf, Germany.
Objective: The purpose of this study was to describe clinical complications and healthcare resource utilization (HCRU) among patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) with recurrent vaso-occlusive crises (VOCs) and patients with transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) in Germany.
Methods: The Betriebskrankenkasse (BKKs) Database was used to identify patients with SCD or TDT. To be eligible for inclusion, patients with SCD were required to have ≥ 2 VOCs/year in any two consecutive years and ≥ 12 months of available data before and after the index date (second VOC in the second consecutive year).

Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) is a protein kinase traditionally known for its role in DNA damage response and cell cycle regulation. However, emerging research has revealed its multifaceted and crucial functions in the immune system. This comprehensive review explores the diverse roles of ATM in immune regulation, from lymphocyte development to its involvement in cancer immunotherapy.
