Impact of CYP1A1 variants on the risk of acute lymphoblastic leukemia: evidence from an updated meta-analysis
CONCLUSION: Our comprehensive analysis indicates that the T3801 and A2455G polymorphisms of CYP1A1 may increase the risk of ALL depending on ethnicity. Therefore, both variants should be considered promising biomarkers for ALL risk. Further large-scale investigations are necessary to assess other factors, such as gene-gene or gene-environment interactions.PMID:38485870 | PMC:PMC10917727 | DOI:10.1007/s44313-024-00007-9 (Source: Blood Research)

SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions, Measurable Residual Disease in Philadelphia Chromosome-Positive Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk. 2024 Feb 21:S2152-2650(24)00081-8. doi: 10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.009. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAssessment of measurable residual disease (MRD) provides important prognostic information and can inform decision-making about appropriate consolidative therapy in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Many contemporary treatment protocols for Ph+ ALL achieve high rates of MRD negativity, and several analyses suggest that allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant in first remission can be safely deferred in most patients who achieve MRD negativity...
