Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: Part II—Cost of Care Among Patients in Advanced Phases or Later Lines of Therapy in Chronic Phase in the United States from a Commercial Perspective by Ehab L. Atallah, Rodrigo Maegawa, Dominick Latremouille-Viau, Carmine Rossi, Annie Guérin

“…**Background:** Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are the standard-of-care treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP). Despite advances in therapy, there remains a proportion of patients with CML-CP that are refractory/intolerant to TKIs, and these patients cycle through multiple lines of therapy. …”

A Paraneoplastic Syndrome Characterized by Extremity Swelling with Associated Inflammatory Infiltrate Heralds Aggressive Transformation of Myelodysplastic Syndromes/Myeloproliferative Neoplasms to Acute Myeloid Leukemia: A Case Series by James K. Mangan, Selina M. Luger

“…We report here a series of patients with an antecedent myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) that underwent aggressive transformation to acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In each case, the transformation to AML was preceded by an inflammatory syndrome characterized by unilateral extremity swelling and an associated inflammatory skin infiltrate, as well as other signs of inflammation, including profound hyperferritinemia without evidence of a hemophagocytic syndrome. …”

A novel truncated fusion gene ETV6::AC010198.2 in post-MPN acute myeloid leukemia caused by del(12)(p13p11) by Jiao Lu, Jiao Lu, Guanqun Yang, Qiurong Zhang, Man Wang, Man Wang, Lijun Wang, Lijun Wang, Lu Chen, Haoyue Chen, Xin Jiang, Chunhua Liu, Tong Lin, Qiaoyan Han, Zefa Liu, Shi Zhen, Zhao Zeng, Jinlan Pan, Jiannong Cen, Suning Chen, Suning Chen, Zheng Wang, Zheng Wang, Xingxia Zhang, Miao Sun

“…The gene ETV6 has been confirmed to be a genetic susceptibility gene for thrombocytopenia and leukemia. Here, we report a long-chain noncoding RNA AC010198.2 as a novel fusion partner of ETV6, showing a karyotype of del(12)(p13p11), with poor prognosis in a post-MPN AML that has never been reported, which may be an vital initial event in the transformation of MPN to AML and deterioration of disease.…”
