Computational Design of a TCR-Based Bispecific Engager Targeting Cancerous KRAS G12V Mutations. (PubMed, ACS Omega)
An example of this is blinatumomab, an FDA-approved BiTE structure for the treatment of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL)...Ultimately, we present two promising TCR-BiTEs that are specific to two different HLAs (HLA:03:01 and HLA:11:01) targeting KRAS G12V, serving as valuable starting points for further evaluation and design in vitro. We validated the design of our TCR-BiTE structures through AlphaFold tools, free energy estimation methods, and molecular dynamics analysis, thereby also providing a potential computational pipeline that can be applied in the design of TCR-BiTE structures targeting other mutations in addition to KRAS G12V.

Clinical strategies for leukemia management: Recommendations from the Bridging the Gaps in Hematology Oncology Consensus Conference 2025. (PubMed, Leuk Res)
For ALL, recommendations highlighted avoiding transplant in most Philadelphia chromosome-positive patients achieving minimal residual disease (MRD)-negativity by noting the high relapse risk with certain IKZF1, CDKN2A/B, and PAX5 aberrations, and administering blinatumomab regardless of MRD status in Philadelphia chromosome-positive and -negative ALL...Future directions include refining treatment sequencing, improving outcomes for high-risk subtypes, evaluating the role of HSCT in the era of novel therapies, and standardizing MRD assessment. This consensus report provides valuable expert insights to inform clinical practice and guide future research in leukemia.

Impact of measurable residual disease on outcomes using a modified DFCI protocol for adults with BCR-ABL negative acute lymphoblastic leukemia. (PubMed, Leuk Res)
In conclusion, MRD is a significant predictor of outcomes with DFCI. DFS and OS are high in MRD negative patients, without the use of blinatumomab.

BCG Infection Following Therapy of Infant Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. (PubMed, Pediatr Blood Cancer)
BCGitis in infants with acute leukemia is a rare complication that is likely associated with chemotherapy-induced immunodeficiency or immune reconstitution following chemotherapy, immunotherapy, or HSCT. While manifestations are typically localized, careful management is required to prevent further complications. This is particularly crucial for patients undergoing HSCT, where prophylactic antimycobacterial therapy may be considered in selected high-risk settings.

Ph-Negative Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia in the Older Adults: Biology, Therapeutic Strategies and Unmet Needs. (PubMed, Eur J Haematol)
In this context, monoclonal antibodies such as blinatumomab and inotuzumab ozogamicin (InO), used alone or in combination with reduced-intensity chemotherapy, have emerged as promising frontline approaches capable of deep remissions with improved tolerability. Across all treatment strategies, comprehensive geriatric assessment appears more informative than performance status alone in predicting tolerability and outcome, supporting its integration into trial design and routine decision-making. Overall, the refinement of immunotherapeutic approaches, coupled with biologically and geriatrically tailored treatment algorithms, offers the most promising avenue to improve long-term outcomes for older patients with ALL.
