The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias
This book is a printed edition of the Special Issue "The Biology and Treatment of Myeloid Leukaemias" that was published in IJMS
Myelodysplastic Syndromes
This book reviews the standard diagnostic and therapeutic management of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) and examines ongoing research developments in the field. The importance of appropriate prognostic stratification, taking into account recent advances in understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of MDS, is explained, and both established and novel treatment approaches are discussed in depth. The coverage includes, for example, the use of erythropoietic stimulating agents, iron chelation therapy, the immunomodulator lenalidomide, hypomethylating agents such as azacitidine, and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Myelodysplastic syndromes are heterogeneous and...
Diagnosis and Management of Myelodysplastic Syndromes
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a group of clonal disorders characterized by pancytopenias and the risk of progression to acute myeloid leukemia. The diagnosis of MDS can be challenging, while the outcomes of MDS patients vary widely. This book provides a concise yet comprehensive overview of MDS. The book begins by reviewing the diagnostic workup of MDS, with a specific focus on the 2016 WHO criteria for MDS diagnosis, and the biology and pathophysiology of the disease. The text then presents the molecular landscape of MDS and its impact on disease diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment decisions. The book continues by profiling different prognostic models of MDS and concludes with a thorough review of treatment algorithms for lower and higher-risk MDS, as well as the use of hematopoietic stem cell transplant to combat the disease. Written by experts in the field, Diagnosis and Management of Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Clinical Guide is a valuable resource for clinicians, practitioners, and researchers who are interested in MDS. The text also features over 100 illustrations, photographs, and tables.
Advances in Malignant Hematology
This comprehensive book captures and compiles new and current information on hematologic malignancies. New knowledge of cellular disease processes, molecular pathology, and cytogenetic, epigenetic and genomic changes has influenced the current outlook toward haematological malignancies. This recent and ongoing expansion of knowledge on malignant hematology has not previously been utilized to its full capacity due to its diffuse distribution scattered over the internet and research publications. This book is written by experts from the American and European continent, sharing their current thoughts and knowledge on the pathobiology of malignant haematological diseases of the blood, as well as current treatment strategies and future developments in the area of these haematological diseases.
Textbook of Malignant Hematology
The Second Edition of this successful title has been fully revised and updated and now includes expanded sections on normal and malignant haematopoiesis, offering a thorough review of the molecular and cellular processes involved in malignancy, developments in diagnostic techniques and treatment, concluding with discussion of treatment of individual diseases, late effects of therapy and supportive care. Short Contents
Leukemias
Edited by experts from one of the world’s largest leukemia centers, this book provides information on the biology of the variety of leukemic disorders, up-to-date diagnostic testing and many new developments in therapy. Chapters covering new treatments present an outlook for the future and explain the rationale for ongoing clinical trials. Topics include: Targeted therapy, e.g. tyrosine kinase inhibitors (Flt3, Aurora kinase inhibitors, kit inhibitors, BCR-ABL inhibitors) Ras inhibitors Epigenetic therapy (hypomethylaters and histone deacetylase inhibitors) Lenalidomide analogs New chemotherapy drugs, e.g. clofarabine, cloretazine, sapacitabine, forodesine Combinations of chemotherapy with kinase inhibitors (e.g. ALL induction protocols in combination with dasatinib or imatinib) New monoclonal antibodies (lumiliximab, humaxCD20, anti-CD40) Thrombopoietic agents Leukemias: Principles and Practice of Therapy Includes practical information to guide you in challenging situations, such as treatment of elderly patients, pregnancy, relapsed and refractory disease Incorporates chapters on supportive care and pharmacologic information about the most frequently used drugs in this area
Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia
This book provides a comprehensive overview on the clinical issues and biology of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and on the molecular mechanisms of targeted therapy with ATRA and ATO. The text covers major topics such as the pathophysiology of APL coagulopathy, biologic and clinical differences between children and adults with APL, and the role of minimal residual disease monitoring. Additionally, the book summarizes historical, current, and future treatment strategies in both adults and children, while highlighting the most recent therapeutic recommendations for relapsed disease and the evolving indications for autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplant. This volume also features chapters focusing on secondary APL and therapy, late effects, rare presentations such as APL in the elderly and during pregnancy, and rare APL variants that may represent therapeutic challenges. Written by top experts in the field, Acute Promyelocytic Leukemia: A Clinical Guide is a valuable resource for clinicians and researchers who treat and investigate this disease in children and adults.
Les syndromes myélodysplasiques de l'adulte
Les syndromes myélodysplasiques sont des affections relativement fréquentes, touchant le sujet âgé et qui augmentent du simple fait du vieillissement de la population. Bien que leur étiologie reste encore le plus souvent inconnue, les experts notent l’augmentation de certaines causes et les mécanismes d’initiation et d’évolution de ces hémopathies clonales sont désormais mieux compris. Le groupe francophone des myélodysplasies met ici à jour les connaissances des non-spécialistes sur la physiopathologie, le pronostic et les approches thérapeutiques des syndromes myélodysplasiques en prenant en compte la dernière classification de l’OMS. Si le pronostic reste largement ...
