RESUMO

Although tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy has markedly improved the survival of people with chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), 20-30% of people still experienced therapy failure. Data from 1,955 consecutive subjects with chronic-phase CML diagnosed by the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) recommendations from 1 center receiving initial TKI imatinib or a second-generation (2G-) TKI therapy were interrogated to develop a clinical prediction model for TKI therapy failure. This model was subsequently validated in 3,454 subjects from 76 other centers. Using the predictive clinical co-variates associated with TKI therapy failure, we developed a model that stratified subjects into low-, intermediate- and high-risk subgroups with significantly different cumulative incidences of therapy failure (p < 0.001). There was good discrimination and calibration in the external validation dataset, and the performance was consistent with that of the training dataset. Our model had the better prediction discrimination than the Sokal and ELTS scores did, with the greater time-dependent area under the receiver-operator characteristic curve (AUROC) values and a better ability to re-defined the risk of therapy failure. Our model could help physicians estimate the likelihood of initial imatinib or 2G-TKI therapy failure in people with chronic-phase CML.

RESUMO

Several international centers have used and reported pediatric-inspired regimens for adolescent and adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph- ALL). However, there is a lack of prospective data on the Chinese population. Herein, we performed a prospective study with a pediatric-inspired regimen (IH-2014 regimen) in treating adolescent and adult Ph- ALL patients in our center. From 2014 to 2021, a total of 415 patients aged between 14 and 65 years (median age, 27) were included in this study. After a median follow-up of 40.8 months, the 5-year overall survival, disease-free survival, and event-free survival rates were 53.8%, 51.1% and 45.0%, respectively. The regimen was generally well tolerated and safe, and the overall chemotherapy-related mortality was 3.6%. Age ≥ 40 years and persistent detectable minimal residual disease (MRD) post-induction were independent prognostic factors. Traditional risk factors for adult patients combined with MRD post-induction exhibit predictive significance for survival and relapse, which is helpful in the selection of subsequent treatment. Patients with high risk factors who can achieve deep MRD response after induction do not derive benefit from allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

RESUMO

To evaluate the efficacy and safety of flumatinib in the later-line treatment of Chinese patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML previously treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). Patients with CML-CP were evaluated for the probabilities of responses including complete hematologic response (CHR), cytogenetic response, and molecular response (MR) and adverse events (AEs) after the later-line flumatinib therapy. Of 336 enrolled patients with median age 50 years, median duration of treatment with flumatinib was 11.04 (2-25.23) months. Patients who achieved clinical responses at baseline showed maintenance of CHR, complete cytogenetic response (CCyR)/2-log molecular response (MR2), major molecular response (MMR), and 4-log molecular response or deep molecular response (MR4/DMR) in 100%, 98.9%, 98.6%, and 92.9% patients, respectively. CHR, CCyR/MR2, MMR, and MR4/DMR responses were achieved in 86.4%, 52.7%, 49.6%, and 23.5% patients respectively, which showed the lack of respective clinical responses at baseline. The patients without response at baseline, treated with flumatinib as 2L TKI, having no resistance to prior TKI or only resistance to imatinib, with response to last TKI, and with BCR::ABL ≤10% had higher CCyR/MR2, MMR, or MR4/DMR. The AEs observed during the later-line flumatinib treatment were tolerable and consistent with those reported with the first-line therapy. Flumatinib was effective and safe in patients who are resistant or intolerant to other TKIs. In particular, 2L flumatinib treatment induced high response rates and was more beneficial to patients without previous 2G TKI resistance, thus serving as a probable treatment option for these patients.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Depletion or permanent quiescence of the hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) pool underlies pathogenesis in androgenetic alopecia (AGA). Reactivation of quiescent HFSCs is considered an efficient treatment strategy for hair loss. The retinoic acid (RA) is critical to ensure stem cell homeostasis and function. However, little is known about whether RA regulates HFSC homeostasis. We aimed to investigate the impact of RA on HFSC homeostasis and the underlying mechanisms, in order to provide new potential targets for medical therapies of AGA. METHODS: Microdissected hair follicles from the occipital and frontal scalp in AGA were obtained for RNA sequencing analysis and test. The C57BL/6 mice model in telogen was established to investigate the effect of exogenous RA. Miniaturized hair follicles from frontal scalp were incubated with or without RA in hair follicle organ culture to test the effects on hair shaft elongation, hair cycling and HFSC activities. A strategy to characterize the effect of RA on HFSC in primary culture was developed to identify novel mechanisms that control HFSC activation. A clinical study was performed to test the efficacy of RA treatment in AGA patients. RESULTS: RA signalling was inhibited in the course of AGA pathogenesis along with HFSC dysfunction. Hair regeneration was retarded in AGA miniaturized hair follicles with RA deficiency, but they tended to recover after treatment with RA. In addition, RA treatment during the telogen phase facilitated HFSC anagen entry and accelerated hair growth. Mechanistically, RA promoted hair growth by stimulating stem cells via Wnt/ß-catenin signalling and accelerating the transition from a dormant to an activated state. Furthermore, a clinical study suggested that RA has obvious advantages in the early intervention of AGA by reactivating HFSCs. CONCLUSIONS: Our study provides insights into the reactivation of HFSCs in AGA and provides potential targets for medical therapies.

RESUMO

The prognostic factors to stratify acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with double-mutated CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPAdm) into different risk groups remains to be determined. In this retrospective study, we evaluated 171 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed AML with CEBPAdm by a Cox proportional hazards regression model. In univariate analyses, colony stimulating factor 3 receptor (CSF3R) and Wilms tumour 1 (WT1) mutations were associated with poor relapse-free survival (RFS). The induction regimens including homoharringtonine (omacetaxine mepesuccinate) or intermediate-dose cytarabine was associated with favourable RFS and overall survival (OS). The induction regimen including both homoharringtonine and intermediate-dose cytarabine was associated with the most favourable RFS (3-year RFS 84.7%) and OS (3-year OS 92.8%) compared to the conventional cytarabine and daunorubicin regimen (3-year RFS 27.7%, hazard ratio [HR] 0.126, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.051-0.313, Wald p < 0.001; and 3-year OS 56.4%, HR 0.179, 95% CI 0.055-0.586, Wald p = 0.005). In multivariate analyses, the induction regimen including intermediate-dose cytarabine (HR 0.364, 95% CI 0.205-0.646, Wald p < 0.001) and CSF3R mutations (HR 2.667, 95% CI 1.276-5.572, Wald p = 0.009) were independently associated with RFS. Taken together, we found that induction regimen and CSF3R mutations were independent prognostic factors for AML with CEBPAdm.

RESUMO

To explore the differences in the clinical features, treatment responses, and outcomes among children, adolescents, and adults with chronic myeloid leukemia in the chronic phase (CML-CP) receiving imatinib as first-line therapy. Data from children (0-8 years for girls and 0-10 years for boys), adolescents (9-19 years for girls and 11-19 years for boys), and adults (age ≥ 20 years) with newly diagnosed CML-CP receiving imatinib as first-line therapy between 2006 and 2019 were retrospectively reviewed. In total, 135 children (cohort 1), 189 adolescents (cohort 2), and 658 adults (cohort 3: age 20-39 years, n = 305; cohort 4: age 40-59 years, n = 270; and cohort 5: age 60-83 years, n = 83) were included in this study. When compared with children, adolescents showed a significantly higher white blood cell count (P = 0.033) and basophil percentage in peripheral blood (P = 0.002) and a significantly higher prevalence of splenomegaly (P = 0.004). Both children and adolescents presented with more aggressive clinical features than adults. During median follow-ups of 28 months (range, 3-161 months) in children, 33 months (range, 3-152 months) in adolescents, and 48 months (range, 3-157 months) in adults, multivariate analysis showed that children and adolescents had higher probabilities of achieving complete cytogenetic response, major molecular response, and molecular response4.5. Notably, compared with not only adults (cohort 3 vs. cohort 1: HR = 2.03 [1.03, 3.98], P = 0.040; cohort 4 vs. cohort 1: HR = 2.15 [1.07, 4.33], P = 0.033; cohort 5 vs. cohort 1: HR = 4.22 [1.94, 9.15], P < 0.001) but also adolescents (cohort 2 vs. cohort 1: HR = 2.36 [1.18, 4.72], P = 0.015), children had significantly longer failure-free survival. Age was not associated with progression-free survival or overall survival. Although they exhibited more aggressive clinical features at diagnosis, both children and adolescents achieved superior treatment responses than adults. Adolescents showed even more adverse features and a poor FFS than children.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Periodically regenerated hair follicles provide an excellent research model for studying tissue regeneration and stem cell homeostasis. Periodic activation and differentiation of hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) fuel cyclical bouts of hair regeneration. HFSCs represent an excellent paradigm for studying tissue regeneration and somatic stem cell homeostasis. However, these crucial studies are hampered by the lack of a culture system able to stably expand human HFSCs and regulate their fate. RESULTS: Here, we use layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly with gelatin/alginate to construct a nanoscale biomimetic extracellular matrix (ECM) for an HFSC population. The LbL coating provides ECM and mechanical support for individual cells, which helps to maintain the CD200+α6+ HFSC population to a certain extent. Addition of key signal molecules (FGF-7 and VEGF-A) simulates the minimum essential components of the stem cell microenvironment, thereby effectively and stably expanding HFSCs and maintaining the CD200+α6+ HFSC population. Subsequently, BMP2 loaded to the nanocoated layer, as a slow-release signal molecule, activates BMP signaling to regulate HFSCs' fate in order to obtain a purified CD200+α6+ HFSC population. CONCLUSION: This system can minimize the microenvironment of HFSCs; thus, stably amplifying HFSCs and revealing their plasticity. Our study thus provides a new tool for studies of hair follicle reconstruction and stem cell homeostasis.

RESUMO

In the process of oilfield wastewater treatment, the polymer-modified materials with special wettability have been recognized by many scholars for their high filtration efficiency and good adsorption effect. In this paper, we used micro-computed tomography scanning and infrared scanning technology to further explore the internal structure and surface chemistry of polyurethane modified materials and then established an experimental platform for the filtration performance of polyurethane modified materials. The change of suspended solids concentration and oil content in the sewage was tested under different filtration rate, filter layer thickness, and water quality. The results showed that the porosity of the filter material and the oil-absorbing material was 65.85% and 56.03% respectively, and the difference in the number of oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of these two materials indicated different adsorption force for sewage impurities. And the polyurethane modified materials had good filtration performance. Through these experiments, we demonstrated that the quality of water filtrated by the polyurethane modified materials met the requirements of the 'National Comprehensive Wastewater Discharge Standards', and the filtration efficiency for suspended particles and oils in oily sewage was higher than 80%. These materials have important practical significance for the harmless treatment of oily sewage.

RESUMO

The aim of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of nilotinib combined with multi-agent chemotherapy in newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Thirty patients with Ph+ ALL were recruited. Standard induction chemotherapy was given for 4 weeks. Nilotinib was administered beginning on day 15 of induction. After achieving hematologic complete remission (HCR), patients received either seven courses of consolidation or hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Nilotinib was continued 2 years after achieving HCR or before stem cell transplantation conditioning. HCR and molecular complete response (MCR), overall survival (OS), hematologic relapse-free survival (HRFS), molecular relapse-free survival (MRFS), toxicity, and nilotinib levels in the serum and cerebrospinal fluid were evaluated. All patients achieved HCR, and cumulative MCR rate was 83.3%. The median HRFS and OS were 18 and 47.5 months, respectively. Four-year HRFS and OS rates were 54% and 45%, respectively. The median MRFS and 4-year MRFS for the patients with MCR were 19 months and 45%, respectively. The molecular response of patients after induction cycle had no impact on HRFS, MRFS, or OS. The patients who achieved MCR after 3 and 6 months had superior HRFS. The HCT cohort in the first HCR had significantly lower rates of relapse and longer MRFS, HRFS, and OS. Most adverse events were reversible with dose reduction or transient interruption of nilotinib therapy. Only traces of nilotinib were detected in cerebrospinal fluid. Nilotinib combined with cytotoxic chemotherapy was effective and translated to a high HCR and MCR for patients with Ph+ ALL. It should be noted that nilotinib cannot cross the blood-brain barrier.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the value of flow cytometric (FCM) analysis of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in the diagnosis of central nervous system involvement in adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) during follow-up. METHODS: A total of 2871 CSF samples from 357 adult patients with newly diagnosed ALL between the year of 2009 and 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. These patients were divided into 3 groups according to CSF results, FCM+/conventional cytology (CC)+ group, FCM+/CC- group, and FCM-/CC- group, respectively. The overall survival (OS) of the three groups was analyzed. RESULTS: Fifteen (4.2%) and 26 (7.3%) patients' CSF samples were FCM+/CC+ and FCM+/CC-, respectively. The remaining 316 (88.5%) patients' samples were FCM-/CC-. The 2-year OS for the FCM+/CC+, FCM+/CC-, and FCM-/CC- groups was 40.0%, 20.6%, and 64.2%, respectively (P < .001). There was no statistically significant difference in OS between FCM+/CC+ and FCM+/CC- patients (P = .195). In multivariate analysis, a high WBC count and LDH level were independent risk factors for central nervous system involvement in adult patients with ALL. CONCLUSIONS: FCM demonstrated a superior sensitivity over conventional cytology in the diagnosis of central nervous system involvement in adult patients with ALL. FCM+/CC- patients showed a similar survival with FCM+/CC+ patients, suggesting that an isolated FCM-positive status holds clinical significance.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The incidence of acute erythroid leukemia subtype (AEL) is rare, accounting for 5% of cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and the outcome is dismal. However, in 2016 revision to the WHO classification, the subcategory of AEL has been removed. Myeloblasts are redefined as the percentage of total marrow cells, not non-erythroid cells. Therefore, the previously diagnosed AEL cases are currently diagnosed as AML or myelodyspalstic syndrome (MDS) according to new criteria. METHODS: We respectively reviewed cases of 97 de novo previously diagnosed AEL and all the patients were diagnosed as AML or MDS according to the new classification scheme, and then the clinical characteristics of these two subtypes were compared. Statistical analyses were performed by SPSS software version 18.0. RESULTS: The median age was 37 years-old, the two-thirds of previous AEL cases were diagnosed as MDS, and there was no obvious difference between two subtypes except for male/female ratio and age. Cytogenetic, rather than MDS/AML subtypes, can better represent the prognostic factor of previously diagnosed AEL patients. When the cytogenetic risk of patients belonged to MRC intermediate category and age were below 40 years-old in previous AEL cases, the patients who received induction chemotherapy without transplantation had a similar survival compared with the patients who underwent transplantation (3-year OS: 67.2% vs 68.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Cytogenetic, rather than MDS/AML subtypes, can better represent the prognostic factor of previously diagnosed AEL patients. Transplantation was a better choice for those whose cytogenetic category was unfavorable.

RESUMO

Hair transplantation involves the transplantation of hair, beard, eyebrows, eyelashes, and pubic hair. Based on our experience, the aesthetic result of hair transplantation mainly relies on 4 indicators, including selection of the donor site, direction and angle of grafted hairs, density, and survival rate of implanted hair follicles. We believe that good results can be achieved as long as attention is paid to the above 4 points.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical and laboratory characteristics, treatment, prognostic factors of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in adolescents. METHODS: Adolescents de novo ALL patients in Blood Disease Hospital, Peking Union Medical College, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from September 1999 to September 2013 were enrolled in this study. Clinical data, therapeutic effect and prognostic factors were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: Of all 94 patients, 91 patients were treated in our center. The overall complete remission (CR) rate was 96.7% (88/91), CR rate after one cycle was 91.2%(83/91). The median follow-up time was 18 months. In all patients, the 6-year anticipated overall survival (OS) rate and disease free survival (DFS) rate were (47.6 ± 6.7)% and (45.4 ± 6.0)% respectively. In standard risk ALL patients , 6-year anticipated OS rate and DFS rate were (65.7 ± 8.1)% and (65.3 ± 7.4)%. Hyperleukocytosis (white blood cell count ≥30 × 10(9)/L in B-ALL; ≥100 × 10(9)/L in T-ALL), Ph(+) , MLL(+) , hypodiploid were risk factors associated with poor clinical outcome. CONCLUSIONS: The therapeutic effect and clinical outcome in adolescents with ALL are relatively favorable, especially in standard risk group. In high risk ALL patients, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation may improve therapeutic efficacy.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Hair transplantation, particularly through follicular unit extraction (FUE), can lead to postoperative complications, such as numbness, itching, and pain in donor areas, primarily because of delayed wound healing. Efficient management of donor-site healing is crucial to mitigate these complications and improve overall patient outcomes. OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the efficacy of hair follicular-derived microtissue (HFMT) in promoting wound healing and alleviating postoperative complications in donor areas after FUE hair transplantation. METHODS: Perifollicular tissue obtained during the trimming phase of hair transplantation was processed into HFMT and analyzed for its properties using histological and molecular techniques. In a single-blind, split-scalp study involving 98 participants, Group A received HFMT or mupirocin, whereas Group B received HFMT or no treatment. Dermatoscopic images were captured postoperatively, and visual analog scale scores were used to evaluate pain, itching, and numbness. RESULTS: HFMT-treated donor sites in Group A demonstrated a significantly higher wound closure ratio on postoperative day 3 than mupirocin-treated sites. Pain scores for HFMT-treated sites were consistently lower on postoperative days 3, 5, and 7. Similar trends were observed for itching scores. Group B exhibited outcomes comparable with Group A. CONCLUSION: The application of HFMT homogenates effectively accelerated wound healing and alleviated donor-site complications after FUE hair transplantation.

RESUMO

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t(16;21)(p11;q22)/FUS::ERG is a rare AML subtype associated with poor prognosis. However, its clinical and molecular features remain poorly defined. We determined the clinicopathological, genomic, and transcriptomic characteristics and outcomes of patients with AML harboring FUS::ERG at our center. Thirty-six AML patients harboring FUS::ERG were identified, with an incidence rate of 0.3%. These patients were characterized by high lactate dehydrogenase levels (median: 838.5 U/L), elevated bone marrow blast counts (median: 71.5%), and a CD56-positive immunophenotype (94.3%). Notably, we found that RTK-RAS GTPase (RAS) pathway genes, including NRAS (33%) and PTPN11 (24%), were frequently mutated in this subtype. Transcriptome analysis revealed enrichment of the phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase-Akt (PI3K-Akt), mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), and RAS signaling pathways and upregulation of BCL2, the target of venetoclax, in FUS::ERG AML compared to RUNX1::RUNX1T1 AML, a more common AML subtype with good prognosis. The median event-free survival in patients with FUS::ERG AML was 11.9 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 9.0-not available [NA]) months and the median overall survival was 18.2 (95% CI: 12.4-NA) months. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation failed to improve outcomes. Overall, the high incidence of RTK-RAS pathway mutations and high expression of BCL2 may indicate promising therapeutic targets in this high-risk AML subset.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: There are limited data comprehensively comparing therapy responses and outcomes among nilotinib, dasatinib, flumatinib and imatinib for newly diagnosed chronic-phase chronic myeloid leukemia in a real-world setting. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Data from patients with chronic-phase CML receiving initial a second-generation tyrosine-kinase inhibitor (2G-TKI, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib) or imatinib therapy from 77 Chinese centers were retrospectively interrogated. Propensity-score matching (PSM) analyses were performed to to compare therapy responses and outcomes among these 4 TKIs. RESULTS: 2,496 patients receiving initial nilotinib (n = 512), dasatinib (n = 134), flumatinib (n = 411) or imatinib (n = 1,439) therapy were retrospectively interrogated in this study. PSM analyses indicated that patients receiving initial nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib therapy had comparable cytogenetic and molecular responses (p = .28-.91) and survival outcomes including failure-free survival (FFS, p = .28-.43), progression-free survival (PFS, p = .19-.93) and overall survival (OS) (p values = .76-.78) but had significantly higher cumulative incidences of cytogenetic and molecular responses (all p values < .001) and higher probabilities of FFS (p < .001-.01) than those receiving imatinib therapy, despite comparable PFS (p = .18-.89) and OS (p = .23-.30). CONCLUSION: Nilotinib, dasatinib and flumatinib had comparable efficacy, and significantly higher therapy responses and higher FFS rates than imatinib in newly diagnosed CML patients. However, there were no significant differences in PFS and OS among these 4 TKIs. These real-world data may provide additional evidence for routine clinical assessments to identify more appropriate therapies.
