Moreover, achieving PB WT1 mRNA negativity-regardless of whether this occurred early or later in the therapy།was consistently associated with superior OS and PFS. These findings suggest that PB WT1 mRNA is a sensitive and reliable biomarker for predicting treatment response and long-term outcomes in patients with AML receiving VEN/AZA.
Our study highlights the potent antitumor activity of low-dose decitabine-primed CAR T (dCAR T) cells in solid tumor models, a benefit previously confirmed in hematologic malignancies. This, in turn, stimulated endogenous CD8+ T cells, enhancing their antigen-spreading capacity and aiding in the clearance of abscopal antigen-negative tumors. These findings reveal the robust antigen-spreading capability of dCAR T cells, underscoring their clinical potential in addressing solid tumors with inherent antigen heterogeneity.

We report a 65-year-old patient with heavily pretreated, FRα-positive ovarian cancer who developed therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome with increased blasts (MDS-IB2, DNMT3A-mutated) during therapy with MIRV in combination with carboplatin having received prior PARPi maintenance therapy. This case demonstrates that MIRV can be safely and effectively administered alongside azacitidine, providing clinically meaningful tumor control without compromising hematologic outcomes. These findings support the concurrent management of ovarian cancer and therapy-related MDS as a viable and underutilized treatment approach in a highly challenging clinical setting.
Furthermore, functional assays confirmed that rosuvastatin addition significantly enhanced T cell cytotoxicity against leukemia cells. Collectively, our findings suggest that adding rosuvastatin to venetoclax-azacitidine shows preliminary clinical activity and acceptable safety, possibly by reducing T-cell exhaustion, thus supporting further study of this triple regimen in older/unfit AML patients.

Pt resistance in HGSC is associated with epigenetic modifications and hypomethylating agents (HMAs) have been studied as carboplatin resensitizing agents...The Pt-resistant patients were enrolled in NCT02901899 clinical trial testing guadecitabine and the PD-1 inhibitor pembrolizumab...We propose new DMLs associated with Pt-naive versus Pt-resistant HGSC. These findings can lead to new biomarkers for HGSC.
Ruxolitinib-based regimens, particularly combined with azacitidine, showed acceptable activity in AP (median OS 27.2 months). IC carried high rates of febrile neutropenia and sepsis; venetoclax was associated with prolonged cytopenias. This study confirms the poor prognosis of MPN-AP/BP, the absence of a unified UK consensus approach and the need for improved therapies and prospective studies to determine optimal treatment approaches for this challenging cohort.
