Acute myeloid leukemia therapy elicits durable complete response in chemoradio-resistant metastatic paraganglioma.

ABSTRACT: Few effective therapeutic options exist for patients with metastatic paraganglioma (PGL). We report the case of a 16-year-old male who developed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) 30 months following the treatment for metastatic PGL. PGL had been refractory to 131 I-meta-iodobenzylguanidine and temozolomide therapy. However, there was a major reduction in primary tumor allowing its gross total resection, and complete resolution of metastatic disease following AML-directed therapy that included daunorubicin, cytarabine, and etoposide. He remains in remission for both AML and PGL, 48 months post AML chemotherapy. Alternative chemotherapeutic agents should be considered for metastatic PGL resistant to conventional therapy.

Precision therapy for acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a molecularly and clinically heterogeneous disease. Despite advances in understanding the pathogenesis of AML, the standard therapy remained nearly unchanged over the past three decades. With the poor survival for older patients and high relapse rate, multiple studies are ongoing to address this important issue. Novel therapies for AML, including the refinements of conventional cytotoxic chemotherapies and genetic and epigenetic targeted drugs, as well as immunotherapies, have been developed in recent years. Here, we present a mechanism-based review of some promising new drugs with clinical efficacy, focus on targeted drugs that are most potential to pave the road to success, and put forward the major challenges in promoting the precision therapy for AML.

Targeting CD33 for acute myeloid leukemia therapy.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this study was to analyze the level of CD33 expression in patients with newly diagnosed AML and determine its correlation with clinical characteristics.MethodsSamples were collected for analysis from AML patients at diagnosis. We evaluated the level of CD33 expression by flow cytometry analysis of bone marrow. Chi-square or t- tests were used to assess the association between the high and low CD33 expression groups. Survival curves were generated by the Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression model method.ResultsIn this study we evaluated the level of CD33 expression in de novo patients diagnosed from November 2013 until January 2019. The mean value of 73.4% was used as the cutoff for the two groups. Statistical analysis revealed that 53 of the 86 (61.2%) AML patients were above the mean. Although there was no statistical significance between CD33 expression level and gene mutation, FLT3 mutation (P = 0.002) and NPM1 mutation (P = 0.001) were more likely to be seen in the high CD33 group. The overall survival (OS) was worse in the high CD33 group (39.0 m vs. 16.7 m, x2 = 13.06, P < 0.001). The Cox survival regression display that the CD33 is independent prognostic marker (HR =0.233,p = 0.008). Univariate analysis showed that the high expression of CD33 was an unfavorable prognostic factor. Of the 86 patients, CD33-high was closely related to the patients with normal karyotype (x2 = 4.891,P = 0.027), high white blood cell count (WBC, t = 2.804, P = 0.007), and a high ratio of primitive cells (t = 2.851, P = 0.005).ConclusionsThese findings provide a strong rationale for targeting CD33 in combination with chemotherapy, which can be considered a promising therapeutic strategy for AML.

Novel epigenetic based differentiation therapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Project description:We have identified and characterized two lysine (K) deacetylase inhibitors (DACi), CM-444 and CM-1758. These inhibitors demonstrate the ability to promote myeloid differentiation in all acute myeloid leukemia (AML) subtypes at low, non-cytotoxic doses, setting them apart from other commercially available histone deacetylase inhibitors (HDACi). Upon analysis of the acetylome following treatment with CM-444 and CM-1758, we observed modulation of non-histone proteins involved in the enhancer–promoter chromatin regulatory complex, including bromodomain proteins (BRDs). This acetylation is crucial for enhancing the expression of key transcription factors directly involved in the differentiation therapy induced by CM-444 and CM-1758 in AML. In summary, these compounds present promising potential as effective differentiation-based therapeutic agents across AML subtypes, offering a novel mechanism for the treatment of AML

Adoptive Cell Therapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Project description:Refractory and relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and T-lineage leukemia have poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Adoptive cellular immunotherapies are emerging as an effective treatment for patients with chemotherapy refractory hematological malignancies. Indeed, the use of unselected donor lymphocyte infusions has demonstrated successes in treating patients with AML and T-lineage leukemia post-allogeneic transplantation. The development of ex vivo manipulation techniques such as genetic modification or selection and expansion of individual cellular components has permitted the clinical translation of a wide range of promising cellular therapies for AML and T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Here, we will review clinical studies to date using adoptive cell therapy approaches and outline the major challenges limiting the development of safe and effective cell therapies for both types of acute leukemia.

Advances in targeted therapy for acute myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a clonal malignancy characterized by genetic heterogeneity due to recurrent gene mutations. Treatment with cytotoxic chemotherapy has been the standard of care for more than half of a century. Although much progress has been made toward improving treatment related mortality rate in the past few decades, long term overall survival has stagnated. Exciting developments of gene mutation-targeted therapeutic agents are now changing the landscape in AML treatment. New agents offer more clinical options for patients and also confer a more promising outcome. Since Midostaurin, a FLT3 inhibitor, was first approved by US FDA in 2017 as the first gene mutation-targeted therapeutic agent, an array of new gene mutation-targeted agents are now available for AML treatment. In this review, we will summarize the recent advances in gene mutation-targeted therapies for patients with AML.

Risk-Stratified Therapy for Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Project description:Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is the second most common type of leukemia in children. Recent advances in high-resolution genomic profiling techniques have uncovered the mutational landscape of pediatric AML as distinct from adult AML. Overall survival rates of children with AML have dramatically improved in the past 40 years, currently reaching 70% to 80% in developed countries. This was accomplished by the intensification of conventional chemotherapy, improvement in risk stratification using leukemia-specific cytogenetics/molecular genetics and measurable residual disease, appropriate use of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and improvement in supportive care. However, the principle therapeutic approach for pediatric AML has not changed substantially for decades and improvement in event-free survival is rather modest. Further refinements in risk stratification and the introduction of emerging novel therapies to contemporary therapy, through international collaboration, would be key solutions for further improvements in outcomes.

Cutting Edge Molecular Therapy for Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Project description:Recently, whole exome sequencing for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been performed by a next-generation sequencer in several studies. It has been revealed that a few gene mutations are identified per AML patient. Some of these mutations are actionable mutations that affect the response to an approved targeted treatment that is available for off-label treatment or that is available in clinical trials. The era of precision medicine for AML has arrived, and it is extremely important to detect actionable mutations relevant to treatment decision-making. However, the percentage of actionable mutations found in AML is about 50% at present, and therapeutic development is also needed for AML patients without actionable mutations. In contrast, the newly approved drugs are less toxic than conventional intensive chemotherapy and can be combined with low-intensity treatments. These combination therapies can contribute to the improvement of prognosis, especially in elderly AML patients who account for more than half of all AML patients. Thus, the treatment strategy for leukemia is changing drastically and showing rapid progress. In this review, we present the latest information regarding the recent development of treatment for AML.

Targeting CLL-1 for acute myeloid leukemia therapy.

Project description:Despite major scientific discoveries and novel therapies over the past four decades, the treatment outcomes of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), especially in the adult patient population remain dismal. In the past few years, an increasing number of targets such as CD33, CD123, CLL-1, CD47, CD70, and TIM3, have been developed for immunotherapy of AML. Among them, CLL-1 has attracted the researchers' attention due to its high expression in AML while being absent in normal hematopoietic stem cell. Accumulating evidence have demonstrated CLL-1 is an ideal target for AML. In this paper, we will review the expression of CLL-1 on normal cells and AML, the value of CLL-1 in diagnosis and follow-up, and targeting CLL-1 therapy-based antibody and chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy as well as providing an overview of CLL-1 as a target for AML.
