To date no AML-exclusive, non-HSPC-expressed cell-surface target molecules for AML selective immunotherapy have been identified. Time-limited combined immune-targeting of AML cells & healthy HSPCs, followed by HSCT might be a viable therapeutic approach👉

This population-based study examined COD in 20K+ CLL patients in the Netherlands between 1996 and 2020. Findings reveal CLL as the predominant COD, around 40% of relative mortality, with a declining 5-year death probability from 16.8% in 1996–2002 to 7.6% in 2010–2020. This comprehensive analysis underscores a noticeable reduction in CLL-attributed deaths and other competing causes, yet as CLL is registered as the most prevalent cause of mortality among contemporary diagnosed patients, this emphasizes the continued relevance of CLL-centric clinical strategies and research.
