In January 2024, a study led by Professor Gang An from Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College was published in the international academic journal ——American Journal of Hematology(IF=12.8). The title of the study is "Development and validation of an individualized and weighted Myeloma Prognostic Score System (MPSS) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma". This study represents a significant leap forward in precision medicine for multiple myeloma (MM).

Lymphoma is one of the fastest-growing malignant tumors worldwide, and the incidence rate in China has been gradually increasing in recent years, posing a serious threat to the health of the population. From January 26 to 28, 2024, the "Work Conference of the Leukemia Committee, Lymphoma Committee, and Myeloma Preparatory Committee of the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) and the 2024 CSCO Academic Conference on Hematology, Lymphoma, and Myeloma Diseases" was successfully held in Haikou. Professor Huilai Zhang from Tianjin Medical University Cancer Institute and Hospital shared insights at the conference on the survival status and diagnosis and treatment strategies for patients with indolent lymphoma, frontline treatment strategies for mantle cell lymphoma, and research progress on immunosuppressants. Following the conference, Oncology Frontier - Hematology Frontier invited Professor Zhang for an in-depth sharing session.

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous group with varying sensitivities to chemotherapy. The "7+3" regimen has been the standard induction chemotherapy for AML for 50 years. In the era of precision medicine, optimizing induction therapy for AML is a crucial issue. At the recent 65th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, Professor Junmin Li's team from the Hematology Department of Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, presented the initial results of the RJ-AML2016 study. This multicenter, randomized, Phase III trial investigated the efficacy of adding Homoharringtonine (HHT) to optimize the idarubicin and cytarabine induction regimen based on Day 5 Peripheral Blast Clearance Rate (D5-PBCR) in newly diagnosed young AML patients. "Hematology Frontier" had the privilege of interviewing Professor Li on the study's key findings and the team's next research plans.
