In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. James Griffin interviews Drs. Haris Sohail and Lucas Kühne on their latest articles published in volume 147 issue 21 of Blood. In this CME article titled, "Retrospective, Real-World Study of IV Iron Use to Treat Iron deficiency Anemia During Acute Infection", Sohail et al show that IV iron given during acute infection with iron deficiency anemia is associated with improved 14-day and 90-day survival as well as hemoglobin recovery. Although this report has the limitations of a retrospective study, these findings challenge current practice and support randomized trials that include patients with infection. In "Revisiting Clinical Response and Refractoriness in Immune Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura", Kühne et al show in a multicenter registry study of 204 patients that refractoriness during caplacizumab treatment in immune TTP is uncommon and, when observed, is typically associated with confounding clinical factors. These findings underscore the importance of careful clinical reassessment and evaluation for alternative etiologies in patients with delayed platelet recovery, rather than attributing such cases to true treatment resistance.
What if the way back to health isn't found in fighting harder… but in reconnecting with nature? After being diagnosed with leukemia and lymphoma, Dean Hall made a decision that left even his doctors shaking their heads. He swam 187 miles of Oregon's longest river. He embraced a practice known as forest bathing. Today, Dean is in remission! Coincidence? Conviction? Or is there more to this story? In this week's episode, Autumn and Dean explore a radically different conversation about healing, purpose, grief, the nervous system, and our relationship with the natural world God created. This conversation may completely change the way you think about striving for health, supporting the body's ability to heal, and God's fingerprints woven throughout creation.
In this episode of the Oncology Brothers podcast, we tackled two real-world challenging cases in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) alongside two lymphoma experts — Dr. Matthew Lunning from the University of Nebraska and Dr. Gilles Salles from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center. The central question: when faced with relapsed or transformed aggressive B-cell lymphoma, how do you choose between CAR-T cell therapy and bispecific antibodies, and how do you get patients through this safely? Key topics discussed included: The role of CAR-T cell therapy in early relapsed DLBCL based on ZUMA-7 and TRANSFORM trial data, and practical strategies for bridging and holding therapy pre- and post-apheresis to safely deliver treatment. A comparison of axicabtagene ciloleucel versus lisocabtagene maraleucel in terms of efficacy, cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) rates, and outpatient feasibility. Management of transformed follicular lymphoma to double-hit DLBCL in the third-line setting, including the role of glofitamab, mosunetuzumab, polatuzumab, and epcoritamab as bridges to CAR-T cell therapy. The importance of early partnership between community oncologists and tertiary care centers to ensure patients access CAR-T and bispecific therapies in a timely manner.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laura Michaelis interviews Drs. Kirsty Hillier and Marco Ruella on their latest articles published in Blood. For "Predicting Development of Pediatric Chronic Immune Thrombocytopenia at Disease Onset Using a Statistical Risk Model", Dr. Hillier shares the potential benefits of incorporating this new model to enhance the care of the 1 in 4 patients who develop chronic ITP. As an alternative to current guidelines which advise providers to "wait and see", this online model determines patients who are at risk for chronic ITP, allowing for providers to make informed decisions on their continued care. In "Harnessing the CD2 axis to broaden and enhance the efficacy of CAR T-cell therapies", Dr. Ruella explains how the treatment of T-cell neoplasms is limited by a lack of discriminating T-cell antigens that allow for effective antitumor responses while preventing CAR T-cell fratricide. The team found that CD2 was a viable target, especially combined with a novel PD-1:CD2 switch receptor to remedy dysfunction caused by CD2 deletion.
Welcome to the Oncology Brothers podcast! In this episode, we were joined by Dr. Carla Casulo, a world-renowned clinician and researcher from the University of Rochester, to discuss the latest highlights from the European Hematology Association (EHA) 2026 conference, focusing on lymphoma. Join us as we dived into four pivotal studies: frontMIND: We explored the efficacy of tafasitamab plus lenalidomide with R-CHOP compared to R-CHOP alone in frontline treatment for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Discover the implications of improved progression-free survival (PFS) and the associated toxicities. POLAR-BEAR: We discussed the head-to-head comparison of mini–pola-R-CHP versus mini–R-CHOP in frail or elderly patients with DLBCL. What does this mean for the use of polatuzumab in clinical practice? High-Dose Methotrexate for CNS Prophylaxis: Learn about the significant findings that suggest high-dose methotrexate may not improve outcomes in high-risk patients, potentially changing treatment protocols. EPCOR FL1: We covered the approval of epcoritamab in relapsed and refractory follicular lymphoma, highlighting its benefits and the importance of time-limited therapy.

In our latest podcast, Professor Andy Davies, Professor of Haematological Oncology at the University of Southampton and Dr Cathy Burton, Consultant Haematologist at Leeds Teaching Hospital talk to Lymphoma Action's Anne Hook. They talk about how lymphoma management has changed over the past 40 years and discuss how lymphoma treatment and care may look in the future. Forty years ago, the diagnosis of lymphoma was much simpler, with high-grade, low-grade and Hodgkin lymphoma being the main entities. Since the 1980s, techniques have developed to enable more accurate diagnoses and a greater understanding of lymphoma biology. Today, instead of three main types of lymphoma, there are over 100 different subtypes. This means that instead of the blunt approach to treatment 40 years ago where ‘one size fits all', clinicians today are able to deliver more individualised treatment. Andy Davies and Cathy Burton talk about the introduction of the monoclonal antibody rituximab in the 1990s, which has had a major impact. In the podcast they also talk about improvements in cellular therapies, resulting in improvements in transplantation and the introduction of CAR-T cell therapy for some types of lymphoma. Looking to the future, bispecific antibodies and targeted therapies will help improve effectiveness while minimising toxicity and provide the opportunity for different approaches to treatment delivery.Lymphoma Voices is a series of podcasts for people living with lymphoma, and their family and friends. In each podcast, we are in conversation with an expert in their field, or someone who has been personally affected by lymphoma, who shares their thoughts and experiences. Lymphoma Action is the only charity in the UK dedicated to supporting people affected by lymphoma. We are here to make sure that everyone affected by the condition receives the best possible information, support, treatment and care. Our services include a Freephone helpline, support group network, Buddy Service, medical information, conferences for those affected by lymphoma, and education and training for healthcare professionals. We would like to thank all of our incredible supporters whose generous donations enable us to offer all our essential support services free of charge. As an organisation we do not receive any government or NHS funding and so every penny received is truly valued. From everyone at Lymphoma Action and on behalf of those affected by lymphoma, thank you. For further information visit: www.lymphoma-action.org.uk
In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. James Griffin interviews Drs. Heinz Zoller and Raul Ribeiro on their latest articles published in Blood. Dr. Zoller discusses "Ferric Carboxymaltose Increases Fracture Risk in Patients and Reduces Bone Formation in Mice with Iron Deficiency Anemia", and how these findings support consideration of alternative IV iron formulations that provide similar efficacy without risk of skeletal complications. Dr. Ribeiro discusses "A low-versus standard-dose regimen an induction for AML: a multicenter, randomized noninferiority trial" and how the low-dose regimen is associated with fewer toxicities, faster hematologic recovery, and reduced health care costs, suggesting a feasible treatment strategy for resource-limited settings.
Send us Fan MailSteve Olsen is a retired dentist, a high-performance coach, and a walking miracle. Diagnosed simultaneously with stage four lymphoma, stage one kidney cancer, and total kidney failure requiring dialysis, Steve was handed a grim medical prognosis.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laurie Sehn interviews Drs. Everett Meyer and Olivier Hermine on their latest articles published in volume 147 issue 11 of Blood. Dr. Everett Meyer discusses "Orca-T vs allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (PRECISION-T): a multicenter, randomized phase 3 trial" which demonstrated that Orca-T showed superior chronic GVHD–free survival compared to the control arm (78.0% vs 38.4%, P < .001) and lower nonrelapse mortality (3.4% vs 13.2%, P = .03). Dr. Olivier Hermine shares insights from "VEXAS anemia is a mosaic erythroblastopenia" which proposes that VEXAS syndrome–associated anemia should be considered as a mosaic erythroblastopenia, in which the severity of anemia is influenced by the quality and quantity of the UBA1–wild-type compartment.
The Alarm's final album Transformation came out May 29th, The album was made by beloved artist and musician, Mike Peters while he was in treatment for the cancer that ultimately took him. “Mike lived a life of beauty and never gave up right to the very end,” says Jules Peters, bandmate and wife.Described by Bono of U2 as “the second greatest rock and roll band in the world,” Mike Peters has been the driving force behind The Alarm for over forty creative years of new music making and dedication to presenting the band's classic songs in ways both imaginative and inventive. A voice of defiance and hope both on and off the stage, Peters first rose to prominence in the early 1980s with The Alarm, whose powerful anthems like "68 Guns" and "Strength" helped define a generation of alternative rock. Known for their empowering anthems and heartfelt lyrics, The Alarm garnered a devoted international following, with Peters' raw vocals and commanding stage presence at the heart of it all, garnering number one rock album chart hits in the USA / UK and 4 albums in the top 10 with Equals, Sigma, Omega and Forwards. During a music career that spanned five decades, Peters performed with some of music's greatest artists and bands including Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen and U2.Diagnosed with lymphoma in 1995 and later with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Peters refused to let his illness silence him. Instead, he turned his fight into a mission to help others.Alongside his wife Jules, he co-founded Love Hope Strength, a music-driven cancer charity that revolutionized awareness and action around stem cell donation that continues beyond his passing. Through its innovative “Get On The List” campaigns—often hosted at rock concerts and even atop mountains—the charity has added over 400,000 people to the global stem cell registry and helped secure thousands of potential life-saving matches for patients worldwide. While this may seem like the final chapter for The Alarm, Transformation promises that the legacy of The Alarm will transform into something larger. While Mike has gone out in a blaze of glory, his love, hope and strength continues on. Echoing the title of the new single, Jules concludes, “Mike and the spirit of The Alarm will ‘Live Today,' forever more. I invite you all to blast Transformation out loud. Imagine Mike in the room with you. Transformation is his battle cry, his resilient love of life. Right to the very end, Mike believed that he was going to live, to be totally free. My last memory is driving him open top along the North Wales coast road, playing Transformation at maximum volume. He was so happy. So full of life. Playing his air drums, bass guitar, already imagining himself on his next world tour. So keep that positive spirit moving forwards. Imagine him as you all knew him best, striding out on to that stage, changing lives one concert at a time. This is an album of hope and a passionate celebration of a life well lived. Please do not be sad. Mike wouldn't want that. He was so proud of this album and had the best time recording it during the last six months of his life. Blast it out loud like Mike did. Play along to the track list and most of all, be happy that we all had Mike in our lives and continue to do so.

Drs. Tina Lockwood and Stacy Gray share the newly released evidence-based guideline on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing from ASCO. They highlight recommendations on when ctDNA testing should be offered—including scenarios where tissue biopsies are challenging, unsafe, or unavailable in time to guide management—and explicitly outline situations where testing should not be utilized. They dive into the evidence evaluating ctDNA for treatment selection, molecular residual disease (MRD), and response monitoring across solid tumors and lymphoma. Drs. Lockwood and Gray explain the importance of balancing ctDNA's high specificity with its moderate sensitivity. They also touch on outstanding questions, including standardizing definitions for MRD, disease-specific applications, and the use of multi-cancer early detection (MCED) screening. Read the full guideline, "Circulating Tumor DNA Testing in Solid Tumors and Lymphoma: ASCO Guideline" at www.asco.org/molecular-testing-and-biomarkers-guidelines" LINK TO FULL TRANSCRIPT
In this episode, Blood editor Dr. Laura Michaelis interviews Drs. Nigel Russell and Uwe Platzbecker on their articles published in volume 147 issue 10 of Blood. Dr. Russell discuses "CPX-351 vs daunorubicin, cytarabine, and gemtuzumab ozogamicin in older adults with non–adverse-risk AML: the NCRI AML18 trial" where a large randomized trial demonstrated that DA-GO2 provided greater overall survival as compared to CPX-351, and that further studies should compare DA-GO2 to lower-intensity venetoclax-based regimens. Dr. Platzbecker shares insights from the first prospective study to evaluate the clinical impact of early therapeutic intervention for MRD in "Azacitidine to treat measurable residual disease in patients with MDS/AML: final long-term results of the RELAZA2 trial" demonstrating potential therapies for patients to achieve and maintain remission.

In this Review series episode, Blood associate editor Dr. Diane Krause interviews contributing authors from the Review Series on Clonal tracking in Hematopoiesis published in volume 147 issue 23 of Blood. Dr. Alejo E. Rodriguez-Fraticelli speaks to the development of his paper, "Clonal tracing of blood stem cells across mouse and human lifespans”, which provides a detailed overview of the experimental approaches that make clonal analysis possible, and which approaches are most appropriate to use to address specific questions. Dr. Shalin H. Naik speaks about how different clonal tracking approaches have been used to address the central question of clonal fate specification of stem and progenitor cells to specific lineages in “The evolution of hematopoietic models through a clonal lens”. Finally, Dr. Federico Gaiti speaks about “Methylation-based lineage tracing in cancer”, which takes these ideas into the context of cancer, focusing on how DNA methylation can be used to reconstruct clonal relationships.
In a special cobranded episode between Oncology on the Go, hosted by CancerNetwork®, and the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT)'s program ASTCT Talks, host Rahul Banerjee, MD, FACP, spoke with colleague Hitomi Hosoya, MD, PhD, about a study she and coauthors published in Blood. In their study, Hosoya and colleagues assessed the underlying mechanisms of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell–related lymphomas developing in the gastrointestinal (GI) tract. The study focused on a particular case involving a 50-year-old patient with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma who developed T-cell lymphoma after receiving cellular therapy in the seventh-line setting.

Send us Fan MailOn this episode, I sit down with Jules Peters, the wife of the front man of The Alarm, the late Mike Peters. We discuss their incredible love affair, his long battle with cancer, The Alarm's new album, Transformation, and more.****"Mike lived a life of beauty and never gave up right to the very end,” says Jules Peters, bandmate and wife of the late Mike Peters of THE ALARM who passed away on April 29, 2025. Following a fearlessly valiant 31-year battle with cancer, his monumental legacy continues with the release of TRANSFORMATION on May 29, 2026 on Twenty First Century Recordings/Virgin Music Group. Its latest single, “Live Today” premieres now via Consequence.Filmed just days before Mike underwent the innovative CAR-T treatment with hopes of eradicating Richter's Syndrome, an aggressive form of lymphoma, “Live Today” is Mike's final video. “As the sun rose, watching Mike perform this song with so much optimism and hope will live with me forever,” said Jules as she looks back. “It was a bittersweet day for me as we filmed this incredible joyous film on the beach in the North of England. After filming concluded, we climbed onto the tour bus and drove straight to the Christie Hospital in Manchester, U.K.. We were full of determination that the pioneering CAR-T would save Mike's life but, at the same time, I was personally terrified as I couldn't shake off a feeling that cancer had finally caught up with us both.”Diagnosed with lymphoma in 1995 and later with chronic lymphocytic leukemia, Peters refused to let his illness silence him. Instead, he turned his fight into a mission to help others.Alongside his wife Jules, he co-founded Love Hope Strength, a music-driven cancer charity that revolutionized awareness and action around stem cell donation that continues beyond his passing. Through its innovative “Get On The List” campaigns—often hosted at rock concerts and even atop mountains—the charity has added over 400,000 people to the global stem cell registry and helped secure thousands of potential life-saving matches for patients worldwide. While this may seem like the final chapter for The Alarm, Transformation promises that the legacy of The Alarm will transform into something larger. While Mike has gone out in a blaze of glory, his love, hope and strength continues on. Echoing the title of the new single, Jules concludes, “Mike and the spirit of The Alarm will ‘Live Today,' forever more. I invite you all to blast Transformation out loud. Imagine Mike in the room with you. Transformation is his battle cry, his resilient love of life. Right to the very end, Mike believed that he was going to live, to be totally free. My last memory is driving him open top along the North Wales coast road, playing Transformation at maximum volume. He was so happy. So full of life. Playing his air drums, bass guitar, already imagining himself on his next world tour. So keep that positive spirit moving forwards. Imagine him as you all knew him best, striding out on to that stage, changing lives one concert at a time. This is an album of hope and a passionate celebration of a life well lived. Please do not be sad. Mike wouldn't want that. He was so proud of this album and had the best time recording it during the last six months of his life. Blast it out loud like Mike did. Play along to the track list and most of all, be happy that we all had Mike in our lives and continue to do so. The music of Mike and The Alarm will always keep us strong”.****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

In this episode, Blood deputy editor Dr. Helen Heslop interviews contributing authors from the Blood review series on hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis. Drs. Nancy Berliner and Joanne Hsu join to provide insight on their paper, “Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis in adults” discussing the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment in this high-mortality disorder, and highlight emerging agents designed to modulate disease progression. Drs. Carl Allen and Bethany Verkamp reimagine diagnostic criteria through a threshold model in “Pediatric hemophagocytic lyphohistiocytosis: current conceptualization, diagnosis, and treatment”, in order to provide individualized therapies with the goal of addressing the combined influence of genetic susceptibility and environmental triggers.
What happens when a medical doctor trained in oncology becomes the cancer patient and then transforms into a primary caregiver for his own father? In this moving continuation of our conversation with clinician, survivor, and care partner Dr. Achim, we dive into the profound emotional architecture of navigating a cancer diagnosis. Dr. Achim opens up about the vast difference between his first experience as a helpless care partner for his father's prostate cancer in 2010, and his recent role guiding his 85-year-old father through aggressive lymphoma and groundbreaking CAR T-cell therapy.Samira and Dr. Achim explore a topic rarely discussed openly in the oncology world: the long, arduous journey of rebuilding trust in your body after it feels like it has completely betrayed you. Dr. Achim shares how shifting from anger to radical self-love and mastering the art of strict presence—learning to live purely in the current moment—became his ultimate armor against the paralyzing fear of cancer recurrence. Whether you are a patient looking for tools to manage treatment intervals, a male patient looking for permission to voice your fears, or a caregiver trying to balance medical advocacy with emotional support, this episode offers an essential roadmap for finding steady footing when your world is turned upside down.Chapter Codes:00:00 Grounding in the Present Moment00:44 Dr. Achim's Transition From Patient to Caregiver02:15 The Reality of Being a Cancer Care Partner06:46 Navigating Aggressive Lymphoma & CAR T-Cell Therapy09:57 Healing the Feeling of "Body Betrayal"13:49 Mind-Body Visualizations During the Treatment Time Gap15:36 Overcoming the Fear of Cancer Recurrence19:33 Mental Health Stigmas for Male Cancer Patients25:25 Life with No Evidence of Disease (NED)Key Takeaways from This Episode:The Caregiver Shift: Why true caregiving isn't about having all the answers or trying to "fix" the disease; it is about steady, radical presence and holding a hand through the confusion.The "Betrayal" of the Body:Understanding the mental shift required to stop treating your body like an enemy and realizing that it is still actively fighting for you.The Power of Visualizations:How Dr. Achim used a 5-day Carl Simonton method seminar to train his mind during the critical "time gap" between diagnosis and treatment.Connect with Manta Cares & Patient from Hell:Learn more about our mission: Manta Cares WebsiteDiscover your personal cancer roadmap: Patient from Hell Podcast HubSubscribe, rate, and review on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube!Disclaimer: This podcast, show notes, and newsletter are for general informational purposes only and do not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, or other professional healthcare services, including the giving of medical advice.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laurie Sehn interviews Drs. Reuben Kapur and Robert Campbell on their latest articles published in Blood. This episode highlights two groundbreaking studies exploring how inflammation drives serious blood and immune-related diseases. In the first interview, Dr. Kapur discusses how inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) can both promote and worsen clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP), with large-scale human data and mouse models identifying REF1 as a key mediator and potential therapeutic target. The second segment features Dr. Campbell, who explains how heme released during malaria infection activates platelet mTOR signaling, intensifying cerebral malaria and suggesting new avenues for platelet-targeted treatments. Together, the conversations reveal how inflammatory pathways and immune signaling contribute to disease progression while opening the door to novel precision therapies.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. Laura Michaelis interviews Dr. Alexis Thompson, former ASH president, on her latest article published in Blood. Dr. Thompson discusses "Long-term efficacy and safety results of betibeglogene autotemcel gene therapy for transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia." She explains transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia (TDT) requires rigorous, lifelong transfusion therapy and iron chelation to manage iron overload. Dr. Kwiatkowski and colleagues discuss the long-term efficacy and safety of this gene therapy in 63 patients with TDT, documenting sustained transfusion independence for up to 10 years and a safety profile consistent with that of myeloablative autologous transplantation.

"I knew the diagnosis, the prognosis, and the five-year survival rates. And for the first time, knowing more didn't help, it made it worse."In this powerful episode of The Patient From Hell, host Samira sits down with Dr. Achim Zinggrebe, a German physician and pharmaceutical oncology expert who found himself on the other side of the stethoscope. After years of treating cancer and developing oncology drugs, Dr. Achim discovered fist-sized lymph nodes on his own MRI, leading to a diagnosis of advanced lymphoma with a 1-to-2-year survival outlook.Dr. Achim shares a raw, clinical, and deeply personal look at the "curse of knowledge" that comes when a doctor becomes the patient. We dive into the "mirror moment" that changed his trajectory, the scientific proof behind integrative therapies like meditation, and why the current medical system often fails to address the "mind and soul" of the person behind the pathology.In this episode, we discuss:The surreal experience of reading your own terminal cancer scans.Why "Dr. Google" is a universal trap, even for medical experts.The transition from conventional oncology to an integrative "Body, Mind, and Soul" approach.The "Mirror Moment": How to start fighting for yourself instead of everyone else.Crucial advice for clinicians on empathy, silence, and treating the human, not just the lab results.Guest Bio:Dr. Achim Zinggrebe is a physician, cancer survivor, and family member of a cancer patient. He works at the intersection of medicine, lived experience, and human reality.Having seen cancer from all three perspectives, his work focuses on helping people find clarity, inner stability, and direction in a time that often feels uncertain. He is the author of Rise and Thrive Above Cancer and the Rise and Thrive Journal, and the creator of a structured pathway that supports people during and beyond treatment in a grounded and honest way.Dr. Achim Zinggrebe joins us from Southern Germany to share how he transformed a devastating prognosis into a mission to provide a "shortcut" for other patients through his upcoming book and advocacy.Chapter Codes00:00 - The MRI That Changed Everything00:44 - Introducing Dr. Achim: Physician, Survivor, & Caregiver02:02 - From Paramedic to Oncology: A Career Built on Helping04:01 - The Diagnosis: Advanced Lymphoma05:30 - Ignoring the Signs: Why We Put Ourselves Last06:07 - The Curse of Knowledge: Why Knowing the Survival Rates is a Burden08:04 - Seeking Hope in a 2-Year Prognosis10:49 - What Medical School Never Taught Me About Being a Patient12:37 - The Missing Piece in Oncology: Body, Mind, and Soul15:12 - The Mirror Moment: Redefining the Role of Medicine18:30 - Rebuilding Your Identity After a Diagnosis22:51 - The Science of Integrative Medicine & Meditation26:53 - Advice to Clinicians: Listen More, Talk Less28:47 - The System vs. The Human BeingSupport the Podcast:If you found this story inspiring, please Like, Subscribe, and hit the Notification Bell.

In this week's episode, Blood editor Dr. James Griffin interviews Drs. Francesco Forconi and Bin Guo on their latest articles published in Blood. Dr. Guo shares insights from "Nucleoplasmic ZNF467 condensates boost hematopoietic stem cell engraftment via ICAM1-mediated mechanical reprogramming". The findings establish biomechanical regulation as an important determinant of stem cell identity and reveal new strategies for engineering stem cells with enhanced regenerative capacity. Then, Dr. Forconi discusses "DC-SIGN binding to the surface immunoglobulin oligomannose-type glycans promotes follicular lymphoma cell adhesion and survival". Persistent, low-level BCR engagement by DC-SIGN enables FL tissue retention and survival while avoiding the deleterious proapoptotic consequences of stronger, conventional antigen-driven BCR signaling. These findings help explain how FL cells exploit their microenvironmental niche.
A pivotal JAMA randomized trial introduces an epigenetic twist to frontline therapy in high-risk DLBCL. Adding tucidinostat (HDAC inhibitor) to R-CHOP improved event-free survival (HR 0.72, P=0.02) and increased complete response rates (73% vs 62%) in MYC/BCL2 double-expressor lymphoma. Toxicity was higher but manageable. A quiet but meaningful shift—targeting biology, not just burden. #DLBCL #Lymphoma #Oncology #PrecisionMedicine #JAMA #ClinicalTrials
