Revumenib Revises the Treatment Landscape for KMT2A-R Leukemia

Revumenib Alters the Treatment Landscape for KMT2A-Rearranged Leukemia Academic Background Leukemia is a malignant disease caused by abnormalities in the hematopoietic system, with KMT2A-rearranged (KMT2A-r) leukemia being a common subtype, particularly in pediatric and adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Rearrangements of the KMT2A gene (lysine me...

Inotuzumab Ozogamicin and Low-Intensity Chemotherapy in Older Patients with Newly Diagnosed CD22+ Philadelphia Chromosome–Negative B-Cell Precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

Academic Background and Problem Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is a malignant hematologic disease, particularly challenging to treat in older patients, with limited treatment options and poor outcomes. Traditional chemotherapy regimens yield long-term survival rates of only 20%-30% in elderly patients. Therefore, finding more effective and bett...

Multiomic Analysis Identifies Survival Predictors in African American Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Multi-omics Analysis Reveals Predictors of Survival in African American AML Patients Background and Objectives Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a hematologic malignancy characterized by clonal expansion of myeloid progenitor cells driven by genomic alterations. Despite advances in genomic profiling, studies focusing on diverse ancestral populations ...

Selective Advantage of Mutant Stem Cells in Human Clonal Hematopoiesis Associated with Attenuated Response to Inflammation and Aging

Selective Advantage of Clonal Hematopoietic Mutant Stem Cells in Aging and Inflammatory Responses Background and Research Motivation Clonal Hematopoiesis (CH) is an aging-related phenomenon in the hematopoietic system, where hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) acquire specific somatic mutations and undergo expansion, causing a particular mutated cell l...

Epitope Editing Protects Hematopoietic Cells from CD123 Immunotherapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Epitope Prime Editing Shields Hematopoietic Cells from CD123 Immunotherapy: A Novel Therapeutic Strategy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia Research Background and Problem Statement Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is a malignant blood disease characterized by the abnormal differentiation of myeloid hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Its incidenc...

A Distinct Metabolic and Epigenetic State Drives Trained Immunity in HSC-Derived Macrophages from Autoimmune Mice

Metabolic and Epigenetic States of HSC-Derived Macrophages in Autoimmune Diseases and Their Driving Mechanism of Trained Immunity Research Background In the context of autoimmune diseases (AD), studies have shown that prolonged activation of the immune system and inflammatory responses affect not only mature immune cells but also have profound effe...
