Оценка эффективности блинатумомаба с аутологичными трансфузиями СD3-лимфоцитов в лечении рецидивов острого лимфобластного лейкоза: опыт одного центраEfficacy of therapy with blinatumomab and autologous CD3 cell transfusions in relapsing acute lymphoblastic leukemia: A single center experience

BACKGROUND Biphenotypic acute leukemia is a rare disorder that is difficult to diagnose. It displays features of both myeloid and lymphoid lineage. There is still a lack of studies in biphenotypic acute leukemia in a Chinese population. We present here a comprehensive investigation of the clinical and biological characteristics, and outcome of biphenotypic acute leukemia in our hospital in over...

Background: Environment of Basrah is seriously contaminated with chemical leukomogens as a result of recent military conflicts. Many studies in the past few years have reported an increase in the incidence of leukemia in Basrah. This study was designed to study the risk and pattern of childhood leukemia in Basrah, Iraq, from 2003 to 2007.Materials and Methods: This hospital-based cancer registr...

Ингибиторы тирозинкиназ: профилактика рецидива после аллогенной трансплантации гемопоэтических стволовых клеток у взрослых пациентов с Ph-позитивным острым лимфобластным лейкозомTyrosine kinase inhibitors: relapse prophylaxis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in adults with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia

UNLABELLED Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) constitute a family of genetically heterogeneous lymphoid neoplasms derived from B- and T-lymphoid progenitors. ALL affects both children and adults. Diagnosis is based on morphologic, immunophenotypic, and genetic features that allow differentiation from normal progenitors and other hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic neoplasms. The aim of this stud...

Background Among all pediatric cancers acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is highly prevalent, butthe overall cost of ALL management is not well-known, there is a need to assess the Berlin-Frankfurt-Munster (BFM) protocol commonly used in ALL management in Iran. So, the aim of this study was to estimate direct and indirect costs of ALL treatment among children based on the ALL-BFM protocol from...

Chromosome abnormalities that usually define high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia are the t(9;22)/ breakpoint cluster region protein-Abelson murine leukemia viral oncogene homolog 1, hypodiploid with < 44 chromosomes and 11q23/ myeloid/lymphoid leukemia gene rearrangements. The spectrum of acute lymphoblastic leukemia genetic abnormalities is nevertheless rapidly expanding. Therefore, newly d...

Background: Microarray experiments can simultaneously determine the expression of thousands of genes. Identification of potential genes from microarray data for diagnosis of cancer is important. This study aimed to identify genes for the diagnosis of acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukemia using a sparse feature selection method. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive study, the expressio...
