Molecular genetics may influence outcome for patients with myelofibrosis. To determine the impact of molecular on after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, we screened 169 primary myelofibrosis (n = 110), post-essential thrombocythemia/polycythemia vera 46), and in transformation 13) mutations 16 frequently mutated genes. The most frequent mutation was JAK2V617F 101), followed by ASXL1 49), calreticulin 34), SRSF2 16), TET2 10), U2AF1 11), EZH2 7), MPL 6), IDH2 5), IDH1 4), CBL 1)....
Abstract Splenomegaly is the clinical hallmark of myelofibrosis. at time allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) associated with graft failure and poor function. Strategies to reduce spleen size before HCT especially after Janus kinase (JAK) inhibition represent unmet needs in field. Here, we leveraged a global collaboration investigate safety efficacy splenic irradiation as part platform for patients We included 59 patients, receiving within median 2 weeks (range, 0.9–12 weeks)...
Vascular risk factors contribute to the progression of dementia in Alzheimer's disease (AD) and influence platelet activation. However, degree activation as a possible underlying mechanism this has not been studied till now. Significantly higher baseline expression both biomarkers, activated glycoprotein IIb–IIIa complex P-selectin, was observed patients with AD fast cognitive decline compared slow during 1-year follow-up period. These results suggest that could be putative prognostic...
Recent evidence revealed important interactions between clonal hematopoiesis (CH) and cellular therapies established for the treatment of hematologic malignancies. The impact CH on safety, efficacy, outcome chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is currently under investigation. We analyzed 110 patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 105) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) 5), treated Axicabtagene-Ciloleucel (39%), Tisagenlecleucel (51%), Brexucabtagene...
Accelerated-phase myelofibrosis, currently defined by circulating blasts 10% to 19%, usually confers very high risk for progression and poor outcome. The outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation accelerated-phase myelofibrosis has not been evaluated yet. We analyzed the 349 clinically genetically annotated patients with primary or secondary undergoing reduced intensity transplantation, whom 35 had myelofibrosis. In comparison chronic-phase (<10% blasts) median leukocyte counts were...

Furthermore, evaluated likely association infectious non-infectious CVID-related phenotypes diagnosis by calculation odds ratio. background sequential...
Treatment with CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells is an innovative therapeutic approach for patients relapsed/refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (r/rDLBCL) and B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (r/rALL). However, convincing response rates can be accompanied by cytokine release syndrome (CRS) severe neurotoxicity termed immune effector cell-associated (ICANS).Single center, prospective observational study of fifteen consecutive r/r DLBCL treated Tisagenlecleucel within 1...
TP53 mutations (TP53MT) have been associated with poor outcomes in various hematologic malignancies, but no data exist on its role patients myelofibrosis undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Here, we took advantage of a large international multicenter cohort to evaluate the TP53MTin this setting. Among 349 included patients, 49 (13%) had detectable TP53MT, whom 30 showed multi-hit configuration. Median variant allele frequency was 20.3%. Cytogenetic risk favorable...
Hyperlipidemia is associated with platelet hyperactivity. In the present study, we evaluated binding of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) on surface circulating platelets in patients stable coronary artery disease and acute syndromes its possible association activation. Furthermore, role oxLDL adhesion to collagen endothelial cells vitro as well after carotid ligation mice was investigated.Using flow cytometry, (n=174) showed significantly enhanced compared (n=182; P=0.007)....
Abstract The inclusion of mutation status improved risk stratification for newly diagnosed patients with chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML). Stem cell transplantation is a potentially curative treatment option, and patient selection critical because relevant transplant-related morbidity mortality. We aimed to evaluate the impact together clinical presentations on posttransplant outcome. Our study included 240 median follow-up 5.5 years. A significant association worse survival was...
The aim of our study was to analyze the potential survival benefit associated with HSCT according clinico-biological scores which incorporate molecular data (MIPSS70 and MIPSS70+V2) facilitate decision-making in this context. One transplant (n=241) one non-transplant cohorts (n=239) were used test hypothesis that PMF patients higher risk score from HSCT. A weighted propensity applied balance confounding factors transplanted cohort as reference. Weighted Cox proportional hazard models...
