Retrospective Analysis of Donor Lymphocyte Infusions in Pediatric Patients With Mixed Chimerism After Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

Daratumumab in high-risk MGUS and low-risk smoldering myeloma: results of the Phase II D-PRISM study

Nature Communications
Daratumumab is approved for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and high-risk smoldering MM (HR-SMM). However, HR-SMM is often as genomically complex as MM, suggesting it may be too advanced for single-agent intervention. We report on a Phase II trial of
