Despite the study of BCR::ABL1-positive and -negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) providing seminal insights into cancer biology, tumor evolution and precision oncology over the past half century, significant challenges remain. MPNs are clonal hematopoietic stem cell-derived neoplasms with heterogenous clinical phenotypes and a clonal architecture which impacts the often-complex underlying genetics and microenvironment. The major driving molecular abnormalities have been well characterized, but debate on their role as disease-initiating molecular lesions continues.

Bosutinib is a second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) approved for use in patients with newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive chronic phase (CP) chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), as well as Ph-positive CP, accelerated phase, or blast phase (with chemotherapy) CML resistant or intolerant to prior therapy. Clinical trials have shown bosutinib is effective as first-line therapy for patients with CML as well as in later lines of therapy after prior TKI failure. Bosutinib has an established safety profile; however, as with all TKIs approved for the treatment of CML, there are adverse events (AEs) that require management.

Acute leukemia (AL) is a diverse group of hematological malignancies characterised by the accumulation of immature blast cells in the bone marrow. Accurate classification into acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is essential for treatment and prognosis. This study aimed to assess the performance of glass slide morphology (GSM) using a light microscope versus whole slide imaging (WSI) in diagnosing and classifying AL, using flow cytometry as the gold standard test.

Gilteritinib treats acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with the FMS-like receptor tyrosine kinase-3 (FLT3) internal tandem duplication (ITD) mutation. Dysregulation of histone modification affects the genesis and progression of AML. Strategies targeting key histone regulators have not been applied to the treatment of AML.

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder that commonly manifests in chronic, accelerated, or blast phase. Typically observed in individuals aged 60-65 years, CML is infrequently diagnosed in adolescents. The usual presentation in late adulthood involves nonspecific symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and weight loss, with rare reports of initial neurological involvement.
