PI3K inhibitors (idelalisib,copanlisib, duvelisib, parsaclisib, umbralisib, zandelisib, ACP-319) in CLL: where do we go from here?
While we have never been as spoiled for treatment choice as we are now, PI3K inhibitor safety is being very closely monitored by the FDA. So, it's timely that Sigrid S Skanland and Jennifer R Brown have written a peer-reviewed Haematologica early view paper that discusses [i]"the current status of

Brain metastasis treatment options?
We have a supportive family, but it’s mostly just me and my brother (both in our 20s) looking after our dad right now, as we lost our mum to

A randomized phase 3 trial of interferon-α vs hydroxyurea in polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia
Hello The paper below recently came out in May. I thought member would be interested. Apologies if this is old news. “A randomized phase 3 trial of interferon-α vs hydroxyurea in polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia” It is freely downloadable from PubMed at https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

starting W&W
So I recently had two visits at the Mayo Clinic and had genetic testing along with ct scans. I’m “normal” karyotype, unmutated igh, unmutated tp53. I’m being transferred from my hematologist to a Cll specialist and in general…I feel pretty lucky. One thing my doc said though was that I was likely to

Relapse of CLL
Has anyone who had relapsed CLL had strong CLL symptoms prior to that diagnosis? I have blood work in a few weeks but my CLL symptoms have been very prevalent for a month now, and was curious if those were signs of having the CLL diagnosis again?

Hi all, I was diagnosed in jan 22. My platelets were over 1100. I was immediately put on hydroxyurea and phlebotomy’s every 2weeks. Levels started to improve and then Started having an intolerance to the hydroxyurea. Continued with phlebotomy’s only as I can’t take aspirin. Platlets back up to 1100

Hurray, Three Cheers for Venclexta & Rituxan

Advanced blood tests at 3 months after diagnosis.
Since the rush at the hematologists at the clinic where I will possibly be treated is sometimes big and now is the vacation season, I could not make an appointment earlier than August 2nd to see my hematologist (then he returns from vacation possibly). So I decided to get ahead of the events and show

very low ferritin with high iron saturation
I’m CLL , on Imbruvica since December 2022. Just received new labs. ferritin 13.00 ng/ml (normal range 24-336) Iron saturation 41% (normal range It appears contradictory to me. Iron level normal Iron binding capacity normal. Any insight is appreciated. Thanks

EPO levels in ET and prognostics
We’ve seen some discussion of EPO levels and PV Dx. I am one of the members who has an unspecific mix of ET/PV and curious about EPO. I found a related report. Quick summary of the report: -Low EPO is not unusual in ET -Low EPO ET has lower MF transformation -Low EPO ET has higher PV progression

Besremi and Hematocrit Control
Closing in on five months on Besremi and my WBC and PLT's are now in the "normal" range, but HCT control continues to be elusive. I did get a 250ml PB on May 21, hoping that along with higher dose of Besremi (145) would knock the HCT down. The result? Exactly the same. 43.6 (My goal is 42 or lower

Excellent results of Bomedemstat in the Phase 2 study’s ET and Myelofibrosis..
Excellent results of Bomedemstat in the Phase 2 study’s ET and Myelofibrosis.. I think finally a very good successor for Hydrea.. This drug is not carcinogenetic and induces the mpn mutations to cell death. (See conference posters downloadlinks) on: https://imagobio.com/our-science/#pubs

Positivity
But illnesses like
Leukaemia
influence the thought process for such a long time that it can be diff at times to see the positive. It is very important though to try to look for something positive in each day, to try to change that negative mindset even slightly and help with the long days to come.
