Mashup Score: 1Influence of Nucleophosmin (NPM1) Genotypes on Outcome of Patients With AML: An AIEOP-BFM and COG-SWOG Intergroup Collaboration - 3 day(s) ago
PURPOSESeveral genomic subsets of NPM1 mutations with varying sequences (type A, B, D, etc) have been identified. Despite molecular heterogeneity, NPM1 mutations cumulatively portend a more favorable outcome, but biology and prognostic implications of …AML patients with NPM1 type D mutations show markedly poorer overall survival compared with other variants.

Mashup Score: 71Unveiling the Role of New Molecules in Acute Myeloid Leukemia: Insights into Disease Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Potential - 18 day(s) ago
This review article explores the current landscape of acute myeloid leukemia treatment, including novel target molecules and recent advancements in cell therapy and immunotherapy focused on T cell activity. Advances in treatment have been promising in recent years, driven by the development of therapies targeting new molecular and genetic therapeutic targets. These findings allowed for the approval of several target therapies by the European and American drug agencies in the last 5 years. However, mortality remains very high, particularly in relapsed or refractory (R/R) patients. In recent years, the development of immunotherapy has expanded this field, leading to the introduction of new drugs and treatments.

PURPOSE Historically, patients with hematologic malignancies are referred to palliative care less often and later in the disease trajectory than those with solid tumors. Recent evidence demonstrates the benefit of early, integrated inpatient palliative care (PC) for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) receiving chemotherapy at academic centers. The current study evaluated the feasibility of implementing standardized early palliative care services (PCS) during hospitalization for AML treatment in a community setting. METHODS Starting June 2018, automated consultations for PCS were incorporated into clinical pathways to encourage early, integrated services for patients receiving chemotherapy for AML with an expected hospital stay of 4-6 weeks. Expectations were established that consultations would be performed within 72 hours of request; patients would have two visits per week by a palliative care clinician and at least one visit by a member of the interdisciplinary team.
