Impact of Soluble BCMA and Non–T-Cell Factors on Refractoriness to BCMA-Targeting T-Cell Engagers in Multiple Myeloma

The Impact of Soluble B-Cell Maturation Antigen (sBCMA) on Multiple Myeloma Therapy: Interpreting the Latest Research Findings In recent years, cell-based immunotherapies have demonstrated enormous promise in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). Among these, BCMA-targeting T-cell engagers (TCEs) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapi...

Prognostic Impact of Cytogenetic Abnormalities Detected by FISH in AL Amyloidosis with Daratumumab-Based Frontline Therapy

Review of the Impact of FISH-Detected Cytogenetic Abnormalities on Prognosis in AL Amyloidosis in the Era of Daratumumab Therapy Background Immunoglobulin light chain (AL) amyloidosis is a rare disease characterized by organ dysfunction caused by the deposition of light chain proteins secreted by abnormal plasma cells. However, the heterogeneous cl...

Follicular Lymphoma Comprises Germinal Center–Like and Memory-Like Molecular Subtypes with Prognostic Significance

Progress in Molecular Classification of Follicular Lymphoma: A Dual Typing Predictive Model Based on RNA Sequencing and Immunohistochemistry Follicular Lymphoma (FL) is a B-cell malignancy characterized by a slow clinical progression, with a median overall survival extending up to 20 years. However, the heterogeneous nature of FL leads to significa...

Recurrent CLTC::SYK Fusions and CSF1R Mutations in Juvenile Xanthogranuloma of Soft Tissue

Research on Juvenile Xanthogranuloma Reveals Novel Genetic Mutations Juvenile xanthogranuloma (JXG), a rare histiocytic neoplasm, typically manifests in the skin but occasionally presents extracutaneously in locations such as soft tissue or the central nervous system (CNS). The genetic drivers underlying these extracutaneous variants remain poorly ...

RBM39 as a Therapeutic Target in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: Disruption of Cotranscriptional Splicing

Research Summary Potential of Targeting RBM39 in High-Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (B-ALL) Background Overview Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) is a hematological malignancy commonly diagnosed in children and young adults.
