Background: Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations represent one of the most frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the prognostic significance of concurrent molecular abnormalities and clinical features in NPM1-mutated AML remains to be fully elucidated.
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 73 adult AML patients with NPM1 mutations.

Embryonic-type neuroectodermal tumor (ENT; previously referred to as primitive neuroectodermal tumor, PNET) of the testis and gynecologic tract share morphologic features with small round blue cell tumors, including Ewing sarcoma (ES), yet are biologically, therapeutically, and prognostically distinct. The diagnosis of ENT can be challenging, and it is unclear if there are reliable biomarkers that can be used to confirm this diagnosis. This study characterized 50 ENTs arising from the testis (n=38) and gynecologic tract (n=12; 7 ovary/5 uterus) with 27 biomarkers (AE1/AE3, ATRX, CD99, chromogranin-A, Cyclin D1, Fli-1, GFAP, GLUT-1, IDH1/2, INSM1, MTAP, NANOG, Nestin, neurofilament, NKX2.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), particularly in older adults aged 60 years and above, present significant therapeutic challenges due to poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Higher-risk MDS (HR-MDS), defined by the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System score of ⩾3.5, is characterized by increased myeloblasts, severe cytopenia, and a median survival of <2 years.

On August 6, 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) granted traditional approval to vorasidenib (VORANIGO, Servier Pharmaceuticals, LLC) for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients 12 years and older with Grade 2 astrocytoma or oligodendroglioma with a susceptible isocitrate dehydrogenase-1 or 2 (IDH1 or IDH2) mutation following surgery including biopsy, sub-total resection, or gross total resection.

Measurable residual disease (MRD) is a strong prognostic factor in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) offers promise but must distinguish true signal from background. We assessed MRD in 98 adult AML patients in first complete remission after intensive chemotherapy using a duplex unique molecular identifier (UMI)-based NGS capture panel.
