The Blood Podcast summarizes content recently published in Blood the most cited peer-reviewed publication in the field of hematology.
In this week's episode, we discuss the findings from a phase 2 study of lenalinomide plus rituximab in elderly frail patients with DLBCL, learn more about platelet GP6-mediated neutrophil recruitment in early stages of acute lung injury, and discuss a newly identified isoform of the tyrosine kinase AXL, termed AXL3, in mantle cell lymphoma.
In this week's episode, we'll learn how the diversity of gut microbiota predicts mortality and acute graft-versus-host disease in pediatric allogeneic transplant recipients. Then we'll discuss complement inhibition in patients with complement-mediated atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome. Finally we'll learn how PD-1 plus HDAC equals responses in previously treated Hodgkin lymphoma, specifically that response rates were encouraging in a heavily pretreated cohort, even among patients with PD-1 refractory disease.
In this week's episode, we’ll discuss a phase two trial in patients with T-cell large granular lymphocytic leukemia treated with the inhibitor BNZ-1 to block receptor binding of IL-15, learn more about the outcomes of gene therapy for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome, and discuss ways to mitigate inequity when prioritizing patients for CAR T-cell therapy.
In this week’s episode, we’ll learn that Germline pathogenic variants of the DDX41 gene are relatively common in the general population and linked to higher risk of AML and MDS, discuss the birtamimab plus standard of care in light chain amyloidosis, and review new insights on rare movement and neurocognitive toxicities that are observed after BCMA-directed CAR T cell treatment.
In this weeks episode, we’ll learn more about the role of IL-7 receptor signaling in the differentiation and expansion of human B-cell progenitors, discuss the use of fixed-duration venetoclax plus obinutuzumab in older patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and learn how low-density lipoprotein promotes microvascular thrombosis by enhancing von Willebrand Factor self-association
In this week’s episode, we discuss real-world evidence for CAR T cell therapy in older patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, inhibiting endogenous anticoagulant pathways in congenital factor deficiencies, and finally targeting the HSP90 epichaperome in acute myeloid leukemia.
In this week's episode, we'll discuss the findings from the final analysis of the CLL2-GIVe trial, learn how NOTCH2 mutants promote resistance to chemotherapy in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, and discuss the role of DBY/HLA class II complexes in chronic graft-versus-host disease.
In this week's episode, we’ll learn about long-term outcomes with pembrolizumab in relapsed/refractory classical Hodgkin lymphoma. Next, what’s behind the accumulation of toxic free alpha-globin in beta-thalassemia? Finally, a road map for managing CAR T cell hematologic toxicity.
Blood associate editors Jeanne Hendrickson and Thomas Ortel edited a How I Treat series on inpatient consultative hematology. In this timely series of articles, the authors present an approach to bleeding, thrombosis, anemia, and quantitative neutrophil abnormalities.
In this week's episode, we’ll learn more about the treatment of relapsed and refractory cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with dimethyl fumarate, discuss the use of lipid nanoparticles for ex vivo editing of human hematopoietic cells, and learn more about racial and geographic disparities in lymphoma clinical trials.
