An in vitro drug screening using primary AML samples identified homoharringtonine (omacetaxine mepesuccinate) as an effective adjunct for treatment of FLT3-ITD AML.
Lung cancer screening with low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) may uncover incidental findings (IFs) unrelated to lung cancer. There be potential benefits from identifying clinically significant IFs that warrant intervention and harms related are not but result in additional evaluation, clinician effort, patient anxiety, complications, excess cost. To identify knowledge research gaps develop prioritize questions address the approach management of IFs. We convened a multidisciplinary panel...
Abstract The present study aimed to define a subtype of complex/monosomal karyotype (CK/MK) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) by its distinct clinical features, p53 signaling and responses targeting agents. Ninety‐eight young adults (range: 21‐60 years; median: 49 years) with CK/MK AML were studied. They received standard induction, consolidation allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from siblings or matched unrelated donors if available. Chromosomal abnormalities most commonly...
Background Omacetaxine mepesuccinate (OME) has antileukemic effects against acute myeloid leukemia (AML) carrying an internal tandem duplication of Fms‐like tyrosine kinase 3 ( FLT3 ‐ITD). A phase 2 clinical trial was conducted to evaluate a combination treatment sorafenib and omacetaxine (SOME). Methods Relapsed or refractory (R/R) newly diagnosed patients were treated with (200‐400 mg twice daily) OME (2 for 7 (first course) 5 days (second course onward) every 21 until disease progression...
Lung cancer accounts for over a quarter of deaths, with non-small cell lung (NSCLC) accounting approximately 80% cases. Several genome studies have been undertaken in both models NSCLC and clinical samples to identify alterations underlying disease behaviour, many identified recurring aberrations chromosome 7. The presence 7 that do not span the well-studied oncogenes EGFR (at 7p11.2) MET 7q31.2) has raised hypothesis additional genes on this contribute tumourigenesis. In study, we...

Cell-to-cell interactions are complex processes that involve physical interactions, chemical binding, and biological signaling pathways. Identification of the functions special pathway in cell-to-cell interaction from very first contact will help characterize mechanism underlying advance new drug discovery. This paper reported a case study characterizing initial between leukemia cancer cells bone marrow stromal cells, through use an optical tweezers-based cell manipulation tool. Optical...
Summary Trisomy karyotype occurs in 5%–10% of AML. Its mutational landscape and prognostic significance are not well defined. A cohort 156 trisomy AML patients was analysed, with reference to 615 cytogenetically normal (CN) patients. showed distinct more prevalent SMC1A , N/KRAS ASXL1 BCOR but fewer CEBPA bZIP NPM1 mutations ≤60, those >60. NRAS were associated poor outcome AML, whereas DNMT3A FLT3‐ITD had neutral effect. appeared biologically from CN‐AML.
Abstract Gain-of-function kinase mutations are common in AML and usually portend an inferior prognosis. We reported a novel mechanism whereby mutants induced intracellular alkalization characteristic oncogenesis. Thirteen kinases were found to activate sodium/hydrogen exchanger (NHE1) normal hematopoietic progenitors, of which FLT3-ITD, KRAS G12D , BTK phosphorylated NHE1 maintained alkaline pH (pHi) supported survival cells. Primary samples with also showed increased phosphorylation...
