Anagrelide and idarubicin combination induces GSDME-mediated pyroptosis as a potential therapy for high-PDE3A acute myeloid leukemia. (PubMed, Leukemia)
In vivo combination treatment of leukemic animals with high PDE3A expression significantly reduced leukemia burden and prolonged survival time compared with single-drug and vehicle control treatments. Our findings suggest that combined ANA and IDA treatment is an innovative and promising therapeutic strategy for AML patients with high PDE3A expression.

Successful Cord Blood Transplantation for Myeloid/Natural Killer Precursor Acute Leukemia: A Case Report and Literature Review. (PubMed, Intern Med)
Although hyper-CVAD therapy was unsuccessful, induction treatment with idarubicin and cytarabine resulted in complete remission (CR). He had been in good health without relapse for over nine months since transplantation. Timely allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using an available donor source may be a promising treatment strategy for MNKPL.

Case report: Successful therapy with azacitidine for acute myeloid leukemia with NUP98::RARG resembling acute promyelocytic leukemia. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
AML with RARG rearrangement is insensitive to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic trioxide. The patient received azacitidine therapy after failing ATRA and standard 3 + 7 therapy (idarubicin and cytarabine) and achieved complete remission. Conclusively, this acute myeloid leukemia subtype may benefit from azacitidine.

Potential Advantages of Idarubicin-Loaded Trastuzumab-Coated Liposomes for Combating Head and Neck Squamous Cancer Cells. (PubMed, Cell J)
It seems that the prepared immunoliposomes could attach more efficiently to HER2 overexpressing cells, which consequently leads to increasing cellular uptake of idarubicin through a receptor-mediated endocytosis mechanism. Moreover, simulation of the interaction between HER2 and trastuzumab suggested considerable possibilities for increasing trastuzumab affinity to HER2.

Successfully treatment of PLZF-RARα positive acute promyelocytic leukemia by Venetoclax combining with decitabine: a case report and literature review. (PubMed, Hematology)
The patient did not respond to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), idarubicin, and arsenic trioxide (As2O3) combined induction chemotherapy. Then, the patient was treated with Venetoclax combining with decitabine as the salvage therapy and achieved morphological remission and PLZF/RARα gene negative. Venetoclax combining with decitabine can be used as an effective therapy in the PLZF-RARα positive APL.

Case of B-acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with t(1;19)(q23;p13.3) TCF3::PBX1 and co-occurring CBL mutation in an elderly patient. (PubMed, BMJ Case Rep)
She was treated with modified Ph-negative EWALL induction (Vincristine, Idarubicin, dexamethasone) and achieved a complete remission. However, she subsequently experienced an early relapse and was refractory to targeted therapy with blinatumomab. After treatment with inotuzumab ozogamicin, she achieved a second complete remission...It demonstrates that patients with ostensibly favourable prognostic factors may experience poor response rates to traditional chemotherapy as well as targeted salvage agents. It also illustrates the challenges of treating B-ALL in the elderly population.

Development of mesoporous magnetic nanoparticles supported idarubicin and investigation of apoptotic and cytotoxic effects on cancer cell lines. (PubMed, Mol Biol Rep)
Our study demonstrates that the effectiveness of idarubicin can be significantly enhanced by its application with mesoporous nanocarriers. This enhancement is attributed to the controlled release of idarubicin from the nanocarrier, which circumvents drug resistance mechanisms, improves drug solubility, and increases the drug-carrying capacity per unit volume due to the porous structure of the carrier. These findings underscore the potential of the synthesized nanocarrier in cancer treatment and provide a clear direction for future research in this field.

Rare case of simultaneous occurrence of chronic neutrophil leukemia and T lymphoblastic lymphoma: case report and literature review. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
After a regimen of ruxolitinib, VICLP (Vincristine, Idarubicin, Cyclophosphamide, Prednisone, Peg-asparaginase) regimen, high-dose cytarabine, and methotrexate regimens, the patient's bone marrow condition partially resolved. However, when the disease relapsed four months later, despite attempts with selinexor, venetoclax, and CAG(aclarubicin hydrochloride, Algocytidine, Granulocyte Stimulating Factor) chemotherapy, the leukocytes and peripheral blood primitive cells reduced, but the bone marrow did not achieve remission. This pathogenesis may be related to microenvironmental immune escape under prolonged inflammatory stimulation and gene disruption affecting protein function due to colony-stimulating factor 3 receptor gene (CSF3R) mutations. For this type of disease, early intervention may delay disease progression.

Novel N,N-Dimethyl-idarubicin Analogues Are Effective Cytotoxic Agents for ABCB1-Overexpressing, Doxorubicin-Resistant Cells. (PubMed, J Med Chem)
Doxorubicin, daunorubicin, epirubicin, and idarubicin have been in clinical use for decades, but their application remains complicated by treatment-related toxicities and drug resistance. Among these, N,N-dimethyl-idarubicin and anthracycline (composed of the idarubicin aglycon and the aclarubicin trisaccharide) stand out, due to their histone eviction-mediated cytotoxicity toward doxorubicin-resistant cells. Our findings thus uncover understudied anthracycline variants warranting further investigation in the quest for safer and more effective anticancer agents that circumvent cellular export by ABCB1.

Treatment of three pediatric AML co-expressing NUP98-NSD1, FLT3-ITD, and WT1. (PubMed, BMC Pediatr)
During the induction phase of the CCLG-AML-2019 treatment protocol, the DAH (Daunorubicin, Cytarabine, and Homoharringtonine) and IAH (Idarubicin, Cytarabine, and Homoharringtonine) regimens, in conjunction with targeted drug therapy, did not achieve remission. Subsequently, the patients were shifted to the relapsed/refractory chemotherapy regimen C + HAG (Cladribine, Homoharringtonine, Cytarabine, and G-CSF) for two cycles, which also failed to induce remission...The therapeutic conclusion is that pediatric AML patients with the aforementioned co-expression do not respond to chemotherapy. Non-remission transplantation, supplemented with tailor-made pre- and post-transplant strategies, may enhance treatment outcomes.

A longitudinal evaluation of oxidative stress - mitochondrial dysfunction - ferroptosis genes in anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. (PubMed, BMC Cardiovasc Disord)
This study focuses on the dynamic characteristics of ORMFs genes in both human cardiac microtissues and cardiac biopsies from ANT-treated patients. It has been highlighted that ORMFs genes may contribute to immune infiltration and angiogenesis in cases of anthracycline-induced cardiotoxicity. A thorough understanding of these genes could potentially lead to improved diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Silencing of the DNA damage repair regulator PPP1R15A sensitizes acute myeloid leukemia cells to chemotherapy. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
The PPP1R15A silencing resulted in decreased viability of Idarubicin and Cytarabine-treated cell lines, in contrast to untreated cells. These findings shed light on new strategies to enhance chemotherapy efficacy and demonstrate that PPP1R15A is an important DDR regulator in AML and its downregulation might be a safe and effective way to increase sensitivity to chemotherapy in this disease.

Metformin as an Enhancer for the Treatment of Chemoresistant CD34+ Acute Myeloid Leukemia Cells. (PubMed, Genes (Basel))
Treatment with cytarabine, idarubicin, venetoclax, metformin, and S63845 upregulated some cell surface markers like HLA-DR expression, and metformin upregulated CD9, CD31, and CD105 cell surface marker expression. In conclusion, we believe that metformin has the potential to be used as an adjuvant in the treatment of resistant-to-first-line-chemotherapy AML cells. Also, we believe that the results of our study will stimulate further research and the potential use of changes in the expression of cell surface markers in the development of new therapeutic strategies.
