Dr. Xiaofan Zhu’s Four Study of Rare and Refractory Pediatric Hematologic Diseases  at 2023 EHA

Dr. Xiaofan Zhu’s Four Study of Rare and Refractory Pediatric Hematologic Diseases  at 2023 EHA

The 28th European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Congress was held in Frankfurt, Germany, from June 8 to 11, 2023. Dr Xiaofan Zhu and his team from the Children's Hematology Center at the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College presented four abstracts at this EHA congress. These abstracts covered various aspects of research, including the prognostic factors for relapsed childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) treated with the CCLG-ALL2008 protocol in China, the use of Blinatumomab for 14 days in combination with chemotherapy to achieve minimal residual disease (MRD) conversion in pediatric B-ALL patients, the integration of transcriptomic features to improve prognosis prediction in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with KMT2A rearrangements, and the effective treatment of pediatric non-sickle cell anemia (NSAA) with Hydroxyurea in combination with CSA. To gain a deeper understanding of these studies, Dr. Zhu has provided interpretations of the research findings, which are summarized below.

Dr. Liu Hongxing and Wang Tong: Decoding Structural Aberrations of the PAX5 Gene in B-ALL and its Correlation with Diagnostic Classification and Treatment Outcomes

Acute B lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) is a clonal heterogeneous disease caused by mutations in genes associated with the development and proliferation of B lymphocytes, which obstructs the normal differentiation and maturation of B lymphocyte progenitor cells. Although the complete remission rate for adult ALL patients can exceed 80% after induction remission therapy, most patients eventually relapse, resulting in a low long-term survival rate. Recently, many new gene mutation types have been detected in relapsed B-ALL patients using technologies such as gene chips and second-generation sequencing. However, the exact pathogenesis of these gene mutations and their co-synergistic fusion genes in B-ALL remains unclear. At the recently concluded 28th European Hematology Association (EHA) annual meeting, a study (Abstract No: P346) by the team of Liu Hongxing and Wang Tong from Beijing Lu Daopei Hematology Institute was selected for this year's EHA. The research aims to decode the structural changes of PAX5 and analyze other pathological fusion genes and gene mutations in B-ALL, while following up on the treatment and outcome of patients.

The 28th European Hematology Association (EHA) Congress was held from June 8th to June 11th, 2023, in Frankfurt, Germany, in a hybrid format combining online and offline meetings. As the largest international conference in the field of European hematology, the EHA Congress covered a wide range of scientific topics, clinical and basic research, including both benign and malignant hematology, discussing the latest developments in the field. Regarding the treatment of Myelofibrosis (MF), several studies from Dr. Jie Jin's team at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University (abstracts S212, P1201, and P1033) were selected for this congress. These studies focused on exploring the efficacy and safety of the new JAK inhibitor Jaktinib in the treatment of MF, attracting significant attention due to its clinical significance. In this regard, Oncology Frontier conducted an on-site interview with Professor Jin Jie and provided a brief explanation of this topic.

Dr. Daobin Zhou’s Team: Zanubrutinib combined with R-CHOP regimen demonstrates efficacy and safety in primary treatment of Intravascular Large B-Cell Lymphoma

Intravascular Large B-Cell Lymphoma (IVLBCL) is a subtype of large B-cell lymphoma, characterized by large tumor B-cells aggregating inside blood vessels. This disease is extremely rare and highly malignant, often involving the central nervous system, lungs, and skin. Its prognosis is poor and clinical treatment challenging. At the recently concluded 28th European Hematology Association (EHA) Annual Meeting, a study (Abstract Number: P1185) from Dr. Daobin Zhou's team at Peking Union Medical College Hospital was selected. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the Zanubrutinib combined with R-CHOP regimen in treating initial IVLBCL, attracting widespread attention. To further understand this study, the Oncolgy Fronter invited Dr. Zhou for a detailed interpretation and analysis, summarized as follows:
