| Investigators conducted a Phase II study, ALYCANTE, to assess the efficacy and safety of a single axi-cel infusion as a second-line therapy in patients with high-risk relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B cell lymphoma deemed ineligible for autologous stem cell transplantation but eligible for CAR-T cell therapy.

|
| Researchers demonstrated that pharmacologic and genetic inhibition of neutral sphingomyelinase-2 led to sustained improvements in long-term competitive transplantation efficiency after ex vivo culture. [Blood] |
|
|
|
| Using tractable mouse models for T cell non-Hodgkin lymphomas and primary patient samples, investigators demonstrated that PD-1 signaling suppressed T cell malignancy by restricting glycolytic energy and acetyl coenzyme A production. [Nature Cancer] |
|
|
|
| Using CRISPR/Cas9 screening, researchers found that loss of ABCC1 strongly increased the sensitivity of AML cells to Venetoclax. Genetic and pharmacologic ABCC1 inactivation potentiated the anti-leukemic effects of BCL-2 inhibitors and efficiently re-sensitized Venetoclax-resistant leukemia cells. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Using a transgenic mouse model, scientists demonstrated that truncated protein phosphatase magnesium-dependent 1 delta (PPM1D) reduced self-renewal of HSCs in basal conditions but promotes the development of aggressive AML after exposure to ionizing radiation. [Leukemia] |
|
|
|
| Investigators described the development of CBFA2T3-GLIS2-driven mouse models of pediatric acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) that recapitulated the phenotypic and transcriptional signatures of the human disease. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Scientists generated a hematopoietic-specific conditional Samd14 knockout mouse model (Samd14-CKO) to study the role of Samd14 in hematopoiesis. The Samd14-CKO mouse was viable and exhibited no steady-state hematopoietic phenotype. [Experimental Hematology] |
|
|
|
| To develop novel drugs for treating T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) and AML, a series of analogs having a polyenylpyrrole structure of natural compounds were synthesized and investigated their structure–activity relationships of in vitro anti-T-ALL and anti-AML activities.

|
|
| | Scientists explored the efficacy of sorafenib therapy in this population with different concomitant genetic patterns. In a multi-center, cohort study, they enrolled patients with FLT3-ITD AML undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. [Signal Transduction And Targeted Therapy] |

| The authors review recent advancements in the field of clonal hematopoiesis and how it may affect the disease’s development in old age. [Cell Death Discovery] |
