We performed a trial to investigate whether intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) prophylaxis in pediatric patients with ALL could prevent admissions for fever. This randomized controlled trial was a subtrial of the national Dutch multicenter ALL study. Patients aged 1-19 years with medium-risk ALL were randomized into two groups receiving either IVIG prophylaxis (0.7 g/kg IVIG given every 3 weeks, starting on day 22 after diagnosis) or well-defined standard of care (control group). Between October 2012 and March 2019, 91 (51%) patients were randomly assigned to IVIG prophylaxis and 86 (49%) to the control arm. In the IVIG prophylaxis group there were 206 admissions for fever versus 271 in the control group (P=0.011). IVIG prophylaxis was not associated with bacteremia. However, there were significantly fewer admissions for fever with negative blood cultures in the IVIG prophylaxis group than in the control group (113 vs. 200, P<0.001). The difference in number of admissions for fever was observed specifically during maintenance treatment (100 vs. 166, P<0.001) resulting in fewer courses of antibiotic treatment (78 vs. 137, P<0.001) and fewer cases of chemotherapy adaptation (72 vs. 134, P<0.001). In conclusion, in pediatric patients with medium-risk ALL, IVIG prophylaxis was associated with significantly fewer admissions for fever with negative blood cultures during maintenance treatment, resulting in fewer courses of antibiotic treatment and fewer chemotherapy adaptations.</p>","PeriodicalId":12964,"journal":{"name":"Haematologica","volume":" ","pages":"47-54"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11694098/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141901566","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, its impact on CML stem and progenitor cells (SPC) remains largely unknown. This study utilized targeted proteo-transcriptomic expression data on 596 genes and 51 surface proteins in 60,000 CD14-CD34+ cells from chronic phase CML patients to determine effects of short-term HU treatment (4-19 days) on CML SPC. Peripheral blood and bone marrow samples were obtained from 17 CML patients eligible for short-term HU treatment (3 patients before and after HU, 7 patients before HU and 7 patients after HU) and subjected to single-cell CITE-sequencing and/or flow cytometry analysis. The analysis revealed enhanced frequencies of hemoglobin-expressing (HBA1, HBA2, HBB) erythroid progenitor cells in blood and bone marrow following HU treatment. In addition, there was an accumulation of cell subsets with S/G2/M phase-related gene and protein expression, likely representing cells arrested in, or progressing slowly through, the cell cycle. The increased frequency of cells in S/G2/M phase after HU was observed already among the most immature leukemic stem cells (LSC), and patients with a large fraction of LSC in the S/G2/M phase showed poor responsiveness to tyrosine kinase inhibitor treatment. We conclude that short-term HU treatment entails differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells and alters the characteristics of LSC in CML. The results imply that studies of LSC and progenitor populations in CML should take effects of initial HU therapy into account.</p>","PeriodicalId":12964,"journal":{"name":"Haematologica","volume":" ","pages":"117-128"},"PeriodicalIF":8.2,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11694111/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141999772","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
