Despite achieving initial remission with venetoclax-based therapy and allo-HSCT, the patient relapsed and died. We propose that the GATAD2B::MTCP1 fusion upregulates MTCP1 expression rather than generating a fusion protein, thereby contributing to transformation and relapse in AML. Further investigations are needed to elucidate the precise role of this fusion event in myeloid malignancies.

Due to presence of JKa and little c antibodies, she required intensive monitoring and supportive care measures. The coexistence of JKa and little c antibodies complicates transfusion management and chemotherapy tolerance in CMML patients.
Although rare, myeloproliferative neoplasms can involve young patients and pose unique challenges for clinicians in diagnosis and therapy. The paper aims to review the biological markers of MPNs in pediatric populations-a particular group of patients that has been poorly studied due to the low frequency of MPN diagnosis.
These regions overlap with 13 published cases (12 papers), of which three displayed hematologic disorders, including neutropenia and juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia. Our case underscores the 8p12q11.21 region as a potential causal region for aplastic anemia, emphasizing the need for further investigation of this patient for possible progression to hematologic malignancy.

We found that ASXL1, RUNX1, and KRAS can negatively impact these patients' survival with different impacts in different morphological diagnosis categories, suggesting a complex interaction between these genes. This study underscores the need for personalized approaches in the treatment of myeloid neoplasms.
This research underscores the pivotal role of targeted genetic profiling in deciphering the progression of CMML and refining therapeutic strategies. The findings emphasize the necessity for advanced genetic screening in managing CMML to better understand individual prognoses and optimize treatment efficacy, thereby offering insights that could lead to personalized treatment approaches.
In the derivation cohort, the cumulative incidence rates of early relapse in the low-risk, intermediate-risk, and high-risk groups were 1.35% (95% CI: 1-4%), 10.40% (95% CI: 4-16%), and 29.54% (95% CI: 16-39%) (P < 0.001), respectively. This scoring system can be utilized to early identification of patients at a high risk of relapse and contributing to the implementation of urgent medical support.
This cytokine inhibited the proliferation of WT but not CMML hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in which CXCL8 receptors were downregulated. CXCL8 receptor inhibitors and CXCL8 blockade restored WT HSPC proliferation, suggesting that relieving CXCL8 selective pressure on WT HSPCs is a potential strategy to slow CMML progression and restore some healthy hematopoiesis.
Introduction – We previously reported the efficacy and safety results of a combination of ibrutinib with rituximab in patients (pts) with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) ≥ 65 years. Conclusions – Chemotherapy-free frontline therapy with AR is highly effective, safe, induces deep MRD negative responses and alters immune landscape in older pts with MCL. Randomized studies are needed to confirm whether this regimen can be the new first line standard treatment for older MCL patients.
The patient with NEMO deficiency demonstrated JMML-like manifestation and severe inflammation. PBMCs of the patient demonstrated increased RAS signaling activation with unknown pathophysiology.
For future development, molecular testing will likely include whole genome and transcriptome sequencing, and primarily molecular classifications of myeloid neoplasms have already been suggested. As such, genetically defined groups should still constitute the basis for our understanding of disease development from early onset to progression, while clinicopathological features could then be used to describe the stage of the disease rather than the specific type of myeloid neoplasm.
Epoetin alfa was used simultaneously in 31 patients (60.7%). The effect was particularly high in the IPSS-M low and very low groups. We believe that the relatively high response rate in our patients was influenced by the frequent use of a higher dose (1.75 mg/kg) and especially by adding ESA to luspatercept in poorly responding patients.
This study on reclassification of VUS in blood cancers demonstrated that one in seven VUS were re-classified 12 months post initial classification. This can inform practice guidelines and potentially impact the prognosis, diagnosis and treatment of haematological malignancies.
Mutations in spliceosomal components have been identified in numerous cancer subtypes, with mutations in RNA binding proteins SF3B1, SRSF2, U2AF1, and ZRSR2 occurring frequently in AML and in up to 60% of patients with MDS, as well as in chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia and in 10% of patients with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. In this review, we explore therapeutic strategies targeting aberrant splicing and the potential of these approaches to drive clinical responses.

The genetic profile of these mutCFN CMML patients closely resembled that of AML, with higher-risk clinical characteristics. Our findings lead us to suggest including the assessment of these mutations in CMML prognostic models and treating these patients with AML-type therapies, including intensive chemotherapy and allogeneic stem cell transplantation, whenever feasible, and consider certain targeted therapies approved for use in AML.
Therefore, we describe a case of a patient diagnosed with CMML NPM1mut and briefly review the literature to highlight the uncertainty about how to classify a CMML with NPM1 mutation. We emphasize the importance of a comprehensive molecular study, which is crucial to optimize the individualized treatment of patients, enabling them to access targeted therapies.
Our study revealed the clinical and genetic characteristics of patients with myeloid neoplasms harboring rare and non-cryptic NUP98r. Given its association with poor prognosis, a comprehensive evaluation is crucial for identifying previously underdiagnosed NUP98r in patients with myeloid neoplasms.
