US FDA Grants Priority Review to BeOne Medicines’ BRUKINSA Combination in First-Line Mantle Cell Lymphoma
[BeOne Medicines Ltd.] BeOne Medicines Ltd. announced that the Us FDA has accepted and granted Priority Review to the supplemental New Drug Application for BRUKINSA® (zanubrutinib) in combination with rituximab for the treatment of adult patients with previously untreated mantle cell lymphoma.
City of Hope Researchers Harness the Microbiome to Prevent Deadly Bloodstream Infections
[City of Hope®] Researchers at City of Hope® and collaborators have pioneered a new approach to preventing dangerous bloodstream infections in patients receiving donor stem cell transplants for blood cancers.
Starton Therapeutics Signs Clinical Trial Agreement with the Stanford School of Medicine to Evaluate STAR-LLD in Combination with Novel CAR-T Therapy for Multiple Myeloma
[Starton Therapeutics Inc.] Starton Therapeutics Inc. announced that it has signed a clinical trial agreement with the Stanford School of Medicine to evaluate Starton’s lead candidate STAR-lenalidomide (LLD), in combination with a novel CAR-T cell therapy, for the treatment of multiple myeloma.
Pfizer’s ELREXFIO Outperforms Standard Regimens and Meets Primary Endpoint in Phase III Study in Relapsed or Refractory Multiple Myeloma
[Pfizer Inc.] Pfizer Inc. announced topline results from the Phase III MagnetisMM-32 study evaluating ELREXFIO® (elranatamab) as monotherapy in adults with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma who received at least one prior line of treatment with anti-CD38 therapy and lenalidomide.
BCLAF1 Links RNA Splicing to ATF4-Dependent Metabolic Adaptation in Acute Myeloid Leukemia
[Science Advances] Using human AML cells and murine models, the authors identify BCL2-associated transcription factor 1 (BCLAF1) as a key regulator of leukemic progression through control of mRNA processing.
A Selective CK1α Degrader Targets Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Spares Normal Hematopoietic Cells
[Cancer Research] Investigators developed and evaluated PinA1, a molecular glue degrader targeting CK1α, in preclinical AML models.
Longitudinal Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Evolution of Microstates and Macrostates in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia
[Cancer Research] Scientists explored the chronic myeloid leukemia-specific information content encoded in single-cell RNA-sequencing versus bulk transcriptomics to resolve this paradox and clarify how discrete disease-defining states emerge from inherently noisy single-cell data.
Distinct Consequences of BCOR and BCORL1 Mutations in Myeloid Neoplasms and Bone Marrow Failure
[American Journal of Hematology] Researchers analyzed 11 340 patients and identified 418 BCOR/L1-mutated patients, focusing on differences between myeloid neoplasms and bone marrow failure syndromes.
Hematopoietic Loss of KDM6A Impairs Cardiac Recovery in Heart Failure via Epigenetic Reprogramming of Myeloid Cells
[Nature Cardiovascular Research] The authors performed multiomics profiling and functional characterization of mouse models and patient-derived data to show that hematopoietic KDM6A loss impairs cardiac recovery after myocardial infarction.
A Single-Cell Comprehensive Atlas of Leukemia and Its Microenvironment
[Cell Reports] Investigators built a comprehensive atlas of leukemia and its microenvironment by integrating single-cell profiling from AML samples and healthy donors, bulk RNA sequencing from newly diagnosed patients, and paired bone marrow and peripheral blood single-cell data.
Clonal Hematopoiesis and Cytopenias following CAR19 Therapy
[Nature Genetics] Researchers studied patients with lymphoma receiving CD19-directed chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy (CAR19) and compared clinical outcomes to propensity-matched autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation-treated controls.
Increase in Fetal Hemoglobin from Baseline to Day 10 Is a Biomarker for Response to Decitabine in AML: Results of the AML21 Randomized Phase...
[British Journal of Haematology] Scientists investigated the association between fetal hemoglobin and treatment outcome in the randomized phase III European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer (EORTC)-1301 trial AML21.
