Immunogenicity of the inactivated influenza vaccine in children who have undergone allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant

This study provides evidence to support annual inactivated influenza vaccine administration to children following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant

A Novel Missense Mutation Affecting the N-terminal Domain of SAP Protein in X-linked Lymphoproliferative Disease

We have revealed a novel SH2D1A gene mutation in a patient with XLP resulting in fulminant refractory EBV-driven HLH, which is a recognized severe complication

Outcome of Infants Younger Than 1 Year With Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Treated With the Interfant-06 Protocol: Results From an International Phase III Randomized Study

Early intensification with postinduction myeloid-type chemotherapy courses did not significantly improve outcome for infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Romidepsin enhances the efficacy of cytarabine in vivo, revealing HDAC inhibition as a therapeutic strategy for KMT2A-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia

In this study, we investigate the in vivo synergy between romidepsin and cytarabine

Risk factors for symptomatic venous thromboembolism during therapy for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

We found two known risk factors in a large cohort of children treated for ALL and identified other factors associated with venous thromboembolism

Molecular-genetic profiling and high-throughput in vitro drug screening in NUT midline carcinoma-An aggressive and fatal disease

Our data emphasize the heterogeneity of NMC and highlights genetic aberrations that could be explored to improve therapeutic strategies.

Regular exercise improves the well-being of parents of children with cancer

Mental health benefits of a pedometer-based exercise intervention for parents of children with cancer were identified.

Immunogenicity and safety of single-dose, 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine in pediatric and adolescent oncology patients

All children who are receiving therapy for cancer should receive a single dose of PCV13 as soon as possible after diagnosis, regardless of prior PCV exposure.

Updates in infant acute lymphoblastic leukemia and the potential for targeted therapy

Outcomes for infants diagnosed under 1 year of age with KMT2A-rearranged acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) have remained stagnant over the past 20 years. Successive treatment protocols have previously focused on intensification of conventional chemotherapy, but increased treatment-related toxicity and chemoresistance have led to a plateau in survival.

Pre-Clinical Evaluation of the Hypomethylating Agent Decitabine for the Treatment of T-Cell Lymphoblastic Lymphoma

T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) is a rare and aggressive lymphatic cancer, often diagnosed at a young age. Patients are treated with intensive chemotherapy, potentially followed by a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Although prognosis of T-LBL has improved with intensified treatment protocols, they are associated with side effects and 10-20% of patients still die from relapsed or refractory disease. Given this, the search toward less toxic anti-lymphoma therapies is ongoing.
