SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions | Early Intervention in Myelofibrosis: Where Are We and Does It Matter?
Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk. 2024 Mar 6:S2152-2650(24)00093-4. doi: 10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.015. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHistorically, therapeutic clinical trials in myelofibrosis have predominantly focused on targeting patients with higher-risk disease who are at risk of increased morbidity and mortality. The endpoints have been designed to target regularly measured disease parameters that are of immediate pertinence to patient's welfare including splenic volume reduction and symptom reduction. These efforts have resulted in meaningful and measurable improvements in disease parameters in these high-risk study populati...

Triple-Negative Myelofibrosis: Disease Features, Response to Treatment and Outcomes
CONCLUSION: TN-MF is invariably associated with significantly decreased survival and more aggressive clinical behavior with higher rates of leukemic transformation and shorter duration of response to ruxolitinib. Mutations impacting RNA splicing, epigenetic modification and signaling (SRSF2, SETBP1, IDH2, CBL, and GNAS) are more common in TN-MF, which likely drive its aggressive course and may account for suboptimal responses to JAK inhibition.PMID:38548563 | DOI:10.1016/j.clml.2024.03.001 (Source: Clinical Lymphoma and Myeloma)

SOHO State of the Art Updates and Next Questions | Novel Agents and the Diminishing Role of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant in B-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
We present our approach to newly diagnosed patients with B-ALL and illustrate how the incorporation of novel agents and use of high-sensitivity MRD assays can abrogate the need for allo-SCT in most patients with B-ALL.PMID:38538495 | DOI:10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.017 (Source: Clinical Lymphoma and Myeloma)

Are the GLIM Criteria Guiding in the Course of Hematological Malignancies?
CONCLUSION: Early nutritional support can increase the immunological status of patients with malignant disorders as well as their tolerability to treatment. Minimizing the risk of malnutrition and providing timely calorie and vitamin support are factors that may directly affect febrile neutropenia, duration of fever, and antifungal use, which will consequently lead to a decrease in the length of hospitalization.PMID:38528354 | DOI:10.4103/njcp.njcp_572_23 (Source: Clinical Lymphoma and Myeloma)

Financial Toxicity, Time Toxicity, and Quality of Life in Multiple Myeloma
CONCLUSIONS: In our large study, monetary status but not disease status predicted FinTox. Over a third of patients on maintenance reported TimeTox. FinTox+ was associated with decreased mental health, while TimeTox+ was associated with worse performance status. These two toxicities may negatively impact patient wellbeing, and studies of strategies to mitigate their impact are in development.PMID:38521640 | DOI:10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.013 (Source: Clinical Lymphoma and Myeloma)

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIsatuximab-based combinations are among the accepted standard-of-care regimens for early-line treatment of patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM), based on the results of the Phase 3 ICARIA-MM and IKEMA trials. Further study findings have shown benefit with Isa-based combinations in patients with newly diagnosed MM, as reported from the randomized GMMG-HD7 and CONCEPT trials.

Long-term follow up of the combination of ofatumumab, high-dose methylprednisolone, and lenalidomide for untreated chronic lymphocytic leukemia with biomarker analysis
CONCLUSION: The combination of ofatumumab, HDMP, and lenalidomide was effective and relatively well tolerated in treatment-naive CLL/SLL. Its role in the frontline setting remains unclear given the current available and effective treatment options.FUNDING: The funders had no role in the study.PMID:38508880 | DOI:10.1016/j.clml.2024.02.001 (Source: Clinical Lymphoma and Myeloma)
