Real-world outcomes of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma treated with frontline R-CHOP(-like) regimens in an Asian multi-ethnic population. (PubMed, Ann Hematol)
Our study demonstrates that our local population has similar clinicopathological and prognostic characteristics of DLBCL as compared to global findings. It also highlights the limitations of R-CHOP(-like) regimens in contemporary DLBCL management and therefore an ongoing need for improved therapeutic strategies.

Primary seminal vesicle diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: a case report and review of the literatures. (PubMed, Front Immunol)
The patient was treated with six cycles of the R-CHOP regimen (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, prednisone), achieving complete metabolic remission as confirmed by positron emission tomography-computed tomography. Through our literature review of additional six cases of primary seminal vesicle lymphoma, we aim to elucidate the typical clinical presentations, imaging features, pathological characteristics, genetic mutations, and therapeutic strategies, aiming to contribute to better detection and management of this rare malignancy. This case underscores the diagnostic challenges and emphasizes the necessity for heightened clinical suspicion and definitive pathological examination in the management of primary seminal vesicle lymphoma.

Hypopigmented mycosis fungoide. Case report (PubMed, Rev Med Inst Mex Seguro Soc)
It was administered treatment based on prednisone and phototherapy with a good response. This case makes possible an outlook of the demographic data of HMF, and it allows this entity to be taken into consideration for possible differential diagnoses that are not contemplated due to the limited dissemination of knowledge about this disease. It is important to emphasize the knowledge of HMF since early diagnosis and timely treatment will improve the prognosis in our patients and prevent them from being treated incorrectly.

Prediction model of male reproductive function damage caused by CHOP chemotherapy regimen for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. (PubMed, BMC Cancer)
The CHOP regimen induces male reproductive toxicity, potentially mediated through alterations in hormone levels and increased expression of inflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress. Using E2 as the sole predictor in the model accurately predicts the extent of reproductive damage, offering a non-invasive method for detecting reproductive system damage.

Polyradiculitis as a Neurological Complication Associated with Adagrasib: A Case Report. (PubMed, Case Rep Oncol)
Symptoms resolved after treatment with prednisone and therapy interruption of adagrasib followed by a permanent dose reduction. After the dose reduction, there was an ongoing effective tumor response at follow-up, and serum concentrations of adagrasib remained within the therapeutic index. Through this case report, we aim to bring attention to the possibility of this side effect, as we believe it is important to be aware of it for future patients undergoing treatment with adagrasib.

Phase 1/2 Study of Polatuzumab in Combination with Venetoclax, Ibrutinib, Prednisone, Obinutuzumab, and Lenalidomide (ViPOR-P) in Relapsed/Refractory Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: Preliminary Safety, Efficacy, and Molecular Analysis (ASH 2024)
ViPOR-P is safe without notable additional toxicity, especially neutropenia and neuropathy, compared to ViPOR, and DL3 was identified as the RP2D. Most AEs were hematologic and manageable with G-CSF with rare febrile neutropenia observed. Fixed-duration ViPOR-P x 6C without maintenance resulted in durable CRs, especially in pts with non-GCB DLBCL by IHC and ABC DLBCL by RNA-seq, including refractory and post-CAR-T pts.

Fixed-duration ViPOR x 6C without maintenance achieved CR in 100% and uMRD in 97% of MCL pts, with ongoing CR in 95% and 73% of TN and R/R pts, respectively, and only 1 R/R pt receiving consolidative allo-HSCT. This includes blastoid, TP53 mutated, and post-BTKi high-risk subsets. ViPOR with a 12d VEN ramp-up on C2 is safe in MCL pts of all ages without significant TLS or febrile neutropenia.

Real-world efficacy of chidamide plus R-CHOP in newly diagnosed double-expressor diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. (PubMed, Ther Adv Hematol)
To evaluate the efficacy of a novel histone deacetylase inhibitor, chidamide, in combination with rituximab, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CR-CHOP) in the treatment of DEL. The most common grades 3-4 hematologic and nonhematologic toxicity were leukopenia (46.7%) and infection (21%), respectively. This long-term follow-up study indicates that CR-CHOP in untreated DLBCL with the DEL phenotype demonstrates high short-term efficacy and safety as well as promising survival outcomes.

A Case of Statin-Induced Necrotizing Autoimmune Myopathy. (PubMed, Cureus)
A 65-year-old woman with a past medical history of hyperlipidemia on atorvastatin for four years, type 2 diabetes, sciatica, and a prior history of endometrial cancer, presented to the emergency department due to proximal muscle weakness worsening over 2-3 months...During her hospital course, she was started on prednisone, fluids, and intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG). Once completing two days of IVIG, the patient was discharged to rehab with rheumatology follow-up. The purpose of this case is to elucidate a rare side effect of a medication despite being on it for several years and to increase awareness and attention to an adverse effect that may one day lead to stratifying patients' risk on the medication.

Five principles and protocols for the clinician based on the 2021 ERS and BTS statements for treating sarcoidosis. (PubMed, Lung India)
If a daily prednisone dose of >10 mg is required for >6 months to maintain remission, it is best to use a second-line drug such as methotrexate or azathioprine. Anti-tumor necrosis factor agents, such as infliximab or adalimumab, may be used to treat inflammatory disease that persists on combination treatment with glucocorticoids and a second-line agent.
