Acute Leukemia in Women

open access: yesWomen's Health, 2010
The treatment and survival outcome of acute leukemia in women is generally similar to that of men. However, acute leukemia in women poses additional challenges in clinical practice. In addition to important precautions during therapy, such as prevention of abnormal uterine bleeding in premenopausal women and therapy during pregnancy, women who are ...

Similar outcomes following non-first-degree and first-degree related donor haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation for acute leukemia patients in complete remission: a study from the Global Committee and the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2023
There are situations where non-first-degree (NFD) related donors have to be considered as alternatives to first-degree (FD) related donors for haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HAPLO).

p185(BCR/ABL) has a lower sensitivity than p210(BCR/ABL) to the allosteric inhibitor GNF-2 in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphatic leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: The t(9;22) translocation leads to the formation of the chimeric breakpoint cluster region/c-abl oncogene 1 (BCR/ABL) fusion gene on der22, the Philadelphia chromosome.

Genomic breakpoint-specific monitoring of measurable residual disease in pediatric non-standard-risk acute myeloid leukemia

open access: yesHaematologica, 2023
Pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease making standardized measurable residual disease (MRD) assessment challenging. Currently, patient-specific DNA-based assays are only rarely applied for MRD assessment in pediatric ...

A novel spliced fusion of MLL with CT45A2 in a pediatric biphenotypic acute leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Abnormalities of 11q23 involving the MLL gene are found in approximately 10% of human leukemias. To date, nearly 100 different chromosome bands have been described in rearrangements involving 11q23 and 64 fusion genes have been cloned and ...

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation using HLA-matched donors for acute myeloid leukemia with deletion 5q or monosomy 5: a study from the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the EBMT

open access: yesHaematologica, 2020
Deletion 5q or monosomy 5 (-5/5q-) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a common high-risk feature that is referred to allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Acute Megakaryocytic Leukemia

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2019
Acute megakaryoblastic leukemia (AMKL) is a rare malignancy affecting megakaryocytes, platelet-producing cells that reside in the bone marrow. Children with Down syndrome (DS) are particularly prone to developing the disease and have a different age of onset, distinct genetic mutations, and better prognosis as compared with individuals without DS who ...

Relationship between FLT3 mutation status, biologic characteristics, and response to targeted therapy in acute promyelocytic leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The prognostic significance of FLT3 mutations in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is not firmly established and is of particular interest given the opportunities for targeted therapies using FLT3 inhibitors.

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation in adult patients with acute myeloid leukaemia and 17p abnormalities in first complete remission: a study from the Acute Leukemia Working Party (ALWP) of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT)

open access: yesJournal of Hematology & Oncology, 2017
Background Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with 17p abnormalities (abn(17p)) carries a very poor prognosis due to high refractoriness to conventional chemotherapy, and allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) appears as the only potential curative ...

The Impact of the COVID‐19 Pandemic on Childhood Cancer Survival: A Population‐Based Assessment of Survival Patterns Between 2015 and 2023 in Germany

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Numerous international studies have reported declines in new cancer diagnoses, delayed diagnoses and disruptions in cancer treatment following the implementation of COVID‐19 pandemic public health measures, raising concerns that these effects may ultimately contribute to increased cancer mortality.
