Furthermore, while reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) in HCT2 might decrease NRM, there is no consensus on which patients may benefit from RIC. We retrospectively analyzed 2478 patients who underwent HCT2 for relapse of hematologic malignancies after HCT1. In a multivariate analysis, older recipient age, short duration between HCT1 and HCT2, RIC in HCT1, HCT-CI ≥ 2, and ECOG PS ≥ 2 were associated with an increased risk of NRM.

The 2014 Lugano classification considers extranodal marginal zone lymphoma (EMZL) a non-FDG-avid disease, recommending contrast-enhanced CT. We reassessed the utility of PET/CT for staging workup and response assessment of EMZL. We reviewed staging and response PET/CT of 190 EMZL sites from 152 patients. Each location was counted independently for patients with > 1 extranodal site. Although not standard, we considered FDG-avid disease if SUVmax was ≥ 2, and calculated ratios between lymphoma SUVmax and mediastinal blood pool (BP index) and liver background (liver index). FDG avidity was detected in 151 (79.5%) out of 190 extranodal sites (in 117 [76.7%] out of 152 patients), with a median SUVmax of 4.5 (IQR 2.5-6.9, range 0-26.8). Locations showing FDG avidity in > 90% of extranodal sites included salivary gland, bone, lung, soft tissue, ocular adnexa, and airways. Skin was commonly non-FDG avid (93.8%). Among 22 patients with > 1 extranodal location, there was concordant FDG avidity in all sites in 18 (81.8%) patients.

To address these gaps, we performed a systematic literature review employing stringent diagnostic criteria to evaluate epidemiologic patterns, clinical features, and therapeutic outcomes. Our analysis included 81 patients identified across 35 studies, revealing a median age of 45 years and a notable female predominance (2.25:1). Autoimmune diseases constituted the most frequent underlying etiology, followed by hematologic malignancies and infections. Patients exhibited significant anemia, with median nadir hemoglobin levels reaching 5.6 g/dL. Corticosteroids represented the most common therapeutic intervention; however, only 43% of patients achieved remission, while 37% experienced chronic hemolysis, and mortality reached 11%. Many patients required multiple lines of therapy, including rituximab and cytotoxic agents, highlighting the disease's refractory nature and management complexity. The substantial variability in diagnostic and therapeutic approaches emphasizes an urgent need for standardized diagnostic criteria, earlier integration of combination therapies, and exploration of innovative treatment modalities.

Maxwell </div>\u0000</div>\u0000<p>The management of CML has evolved over the last quarter century or so, transforming this once fatal disease into one that is curable or at least controllable [<span>1</span>]. With the routine use of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy, life expectancy is near normal compared to age-matched controls [<span>2</span>] although quality of life (QOL) may not be normal [<span>3, 4</span>]. Survival has not really improved beyond what was seen with the first generation of these drugs, but newer drugs have helped with issues of resistance and intolerance, making the need to use more aggressive options a much less frequent event.</p>\u0000<p>In the pre-TKI era, the only option for possible “cure” with the rare exception of interferon therapy, was an allogeneic bone marrow, now stem cell transplant [<span>5, 6</span>]. This, however, was a reality if a patient was young, usually under the age of 40 years, had a matched sibling, had reasonable health, was near a transplant program, and had reimbursement for this costly procedure. In the western world, where the median age of CML diagnosis is in the mid-60s, or the developing world, where the procedure was not technically available or reimbursed, it can be seen that the majority of patients were left with palliative management only. If this was all that was available, major developments in allografting have occurred, which have changed the landscape. Patients can now be transplanted into their eighth decade, co-morbidities can often be managed, reduced intensity conditioning is less acutely toxic, better graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and therapy are available, costs are down, and more centers are available. But most significantly, with the availability of a larger donor pool—alternate related donors, unrelated donor registries, and haploidentical donors—allografting could be available to more people [<span>7, 8</span>]. The converse of this is…so what. With the appearance of imatinib and subsequent TKIs, the need for allografting almost disappeared, and along with it, the memory that allografting still exists and may be appropriate in a small number of cases.</p>\u0000<p>In parallel, advancements in TKI development have yielded newer drugs that in many cases can deal with resistance or intolerance of earlier drugs and for some patients with co-morbidities, may be safer and without the problem of adverse events or side effects [<span>9, 10</span>]. This has reduced but not eliminated the need to consider an allograft. On the other hand, more frequent chronic problems can sometimes be replaced with more serious issues or, in cases of the newest drugs, unknown long-term issues, if any. Risk/benefit ratios become important, and the use of a potentially “riskier” drug can be justified with more advanced CML, after careful thought, discussion, and consent.</p>\u0000<p>This comm","PeriodicalId":7724,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Hematology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144097362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
