Abstract
Primary renal involvement by T lymphoblasts is rare among adults with T acute lymphoblastic leukaemia. We report a 28-year-old man presenting with acute renal failure due to infiltration by T lymphoblasts and his response to paediatric-inspired modified BFM-90 protocol. The patient achieved an initial complete remission (CR) but developed central nervous system relapse. He achieved CR2 with cranial irradiation and intrathecal chemotherapy. He underwent a haploidentical transplant in CR2 and remains in remission post-transplant day 330. An early kidney biopsy helped confirm the diagnosis. Such presentations remain responsive to modified BFM-90. An early allotransplant in CR2 remains the standard of care.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ovarian tissue cryopreservation and transplantation are the only available fertility techniques for prepubertal girls with cancer. Though autotransplantation carries a risk of reintroducing malignant cells, it can be avoided by identifying minimal infiltrative disease (MID) within ovarian tissue. METHODS A broad search for peer-reviewed articles in the PubMed database was conducted in accordance with PRISMA guidelines up to March 2023. Search terms included 'minimal residual disease', 'cryopreservation', 'ovarian', 'cancer' and synonyms. RESULTS Out of 542 identified records, 17 were included. Ovarian tissues of at least 115 girls were evaluated and categorized as: hematological malignancies (n = 56; 48.7%), solid tumors (n = 42; 36.5%) and tumors of the central nervous system (n = 17; 14.8%). In ovarian tissue of 25 patients (21.7%), MID was detected using RT-qPCR, FISH or multicolor flow cytometry: 16 of them (64%) being ALL (IgH rearrangements with/without TRG, BCL-ABL1, EA2-PBX1, TEL-AML1 fusion transcripts), 3 (12%) Ewing sarcoma (EWS-FLI1 fusion transcript, EWSR1 rearrangements), 3 (12%) CML (BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript, FLT3) and 3 (12%) AML (leukemia-associated immunophenotypes, BCR-ABL1 fusion transcript) patients. CONCLUSION While the majority of malignancies were found to have a low risk of containing malignant cells in ovarian tissue, further studies are needed to ensure safe implementation of future fertility restoration in clinical practice.

Abstract
Different driver mutations and/or chromosomal aberrations and dysregulated signaling interactions between leukemia cells and the immune microenvironment have been implicated in the development of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). To better understand changes in the bone marrow microenvironment and signaling pathways in pediatric T-ALL, bone marrows collected at diagnosis (Dx) and end of induction therapy (EOI) from 11 patients at a single center were profiled by single cell transcriptomics (10 Dx, 5 paired EOI, 1 relapse). T-ALL blasts were identified by comparison with healthy bone marrow cells. T-ALL blast-associated gene signature included SOX4, STMN1, JUN, HES4, CDK6, ARMH1 among the most significantly overexpressed genes, some of which are associated with poor prognosis in children with T-ALL. Transcriptome profiles of the blast cells exhibited significant inter-patient heterogeneity. Post induction therapy expression profiles of the immune cells revealed significant changes. Residual blast cells in MRD+ EOI samples exhibited significant upregulation (P < 0.01) of PD-1 and RhoGDI signaling pathways. Differences in cellular communication were noted in the presence of residual disease in T cell and hematopoietic stem cell compartments in the bone marrow. Together, these studies generate new insights and expand our understanding of the bone marrow landscape in pediatric T-ALL.

Abstract
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive malignant blood disorder with a high rate of relapse. Patients relapse as a result of minimal residual disease (MRD), which originates from residual T-ALL cells in the bone marrow microenvironment (BMM). In the present study, it is observed that adipocytes increase dramatically in the BMM of T-ALL patients after exposure to chemotherapeutic drugs. Then, it is proved that adipocytes attract T-ALL cells by releasing CXCL13 and support leukemia cell survival by activating the Notch1 signaling pathway via DLL1 and Notch1 binding. Furthermore, it is verified that dexamethasone (DEX) induces adipogenic differentiation by enhancing the expression of SREBF1 in bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs), and an SREBF1 inhibitor significantly decreases the adipogenic potential of BMSCs and the subsequent ability of adipocytes to support T-ALL cells in vitro and in vivo. These findings confirm that the differentiation of BMSCs to adipocytes induced by DEX contributes to MRD in T-ALL and provides an auxiliary clinical treatment to reduce the recurrence rate.

Abstract
Pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) has historically been associated with a poor prognosis. However, prognostic indicators and methods of treatment used for T-ALL remain controversial. A total of 136 children newly diagnosed with T-ALL between 2005 and 2018 were consecutively enrolled in this study. We assessed the effect of different prognostic factors, such as clinical characteristics, minimal residual disease (MRD), and the role of transplantation in postremission treatment, as the outcomes. Compared with B-ALL patients, patients with T-ALL are generally older, more likely to be male and have a higher white blood cell count. The complete remission (CR) rate was 95.6%, while the 5-year overall survival (OS), event-free survival (EFS), and cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) were 74.3 ± 3.7%, 71.3 ± 3.9%, and 24.4 ± 3.8%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, day 33 MRD ≥0.1% and hyperleukocytosis were associated with a significantly worse prognosis in the whole group. Transplantation resulted in a significant survival advantage, compared with chemotherapy, for high-risk (HR) patients (5-year CIR: 15.6 ± 10.2% vs. 55.6 ± 11.7%, P = .029). The prognosis of children with T-ALL was poor, and the MRD on day 33 was found to be an important predictive factor of clinical outcome at our center.

Abstract
Background T-lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) patients expressing myeloid/stem cell antigens are classified as early T-cell precursor lymphoblastic leukemia (ETP-ALL) or near-ETP-ALL. Methods Clinico-laboratory profiles, flow cytometric end-of-induction measurable residual disease (EOI-MRD), and survival of treatment naïve T-ALL patients were analyzed according to their immunophenotypic subtypes. Results Among 81 consecutive T-ALL patients diagnosed, 21% (N=17) were ETP-ALL and 19% (N=15) were near-ETP-ALL. EOI-MRD was detectable in 39% of the 59 samples tested (31.6% of pediatric samples and 52.4% of adult samples). The frequency of EOI-MRD positivity was significantly higher among ETP-ALL (75%, P=0.001) and near-ETP-ALL (71%, P=0.009) patients compared to that in conventional-T-ALL (con-T-ALL) patients (22.5%). CD8 (P=0.046) and CD38 (P=0.046) expressions were significantly upregulated in the EOI blasts of con-T-ALL and ETP-ALL samples, respectively. The 2-year rates of overall (OS), relapse-free (RFS), and event-free survival (EFS) among the T-ALL patients (pediatric vs. adult) was 79.5% vs. 39.8% (P<0.001), 84.3% vs. 60.4% (P=0.026), and 80.3% vs. 38% (P<0.001), respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that 2-year EFS and RFS of pediatric T-ALL patients was independent of T-ALL subtype and was influenced only by EOI-MRD status. However, 2-year OS, RFS, and EFS among adult T-ALL patients were EOI-MRD independent and influenced only by the near-ETP-ALL phenotype. Conclusion Two-year survival among pediatric and adult T-ALL patients is attributed to EOI-MRD status and near-ETP-ALL phenotype, respectively.

Abstract
Background T-cell/NK-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (T/NK-NHL) is an uncommon heterogeneous group of diseases. The current classification of T/NK-NHL is mainly based on histopathology and immunohistochemistry. In practice, however, the lack of unique histopathological patterns, overlapping cytomorphology, immunophenotypic complexity, inadequate panels, and diverse clinical presentations pose a great challenge. Flow cytometric immunophenotyping (FCI) is a gold standard for the diagnosis, subtyping, and monitoring of many hematological neoplasms. However, studies emphasizing the role of FCI in the diagnosis and staging of T/NK-NHL in real-world practice are scarce. Methods We included T-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (T-NHL) patients evaluated for the diagnosis and/or staging of T/NK-NHL using FCI between 2014 and 2020. We studied the utility of FCI in the diagnosis and subtyping of T/NK-NHL and correlated the FCI findings with the results of histopathology/immunohistochemistry. For correlation purposes, patients were categorized under definitive diagnosis and subtyping, inadequate subtyping, inadequate diagnosis, and misdiagnosis based on the findings of each technique. Results A total of 232 patients were diagnosed with T/NK-NHL. FCI findings provided definitive diagnoses in 198 patients and subtyping in 187/198 (95.45%) patients. The correlation between FCI and histopathological/immunohistochemistry results (n = 150) demonstrated an agreement on the diagnosis and subtyping in 69/150 (46%) patients. Of the remaining cases, the diagnosis and subtyping were inadequate in 64/150 (42.7%), and 14/150 (9.33%) were misdiagnosed on histopathology/immunohistochemistry results. FCI provided definitive diagnosis and subtyping in 51/64 (79.7%) patients. Among these, 13 patients diagnosed with peripheral T-cell lymphoma not-otherwise-specified were reclassified (angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL)-11 and prolymphocytic leukemia-2) on FCI. It corrected the diagnosis in 14 patients that were misdiagnosed (6 B-cell NHL (B-NHL), 3 Hodgkin’s lymphoma, 1 acute leukemia, and 1 subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma) and misclassified (3 T-NHL) on histopathological results. AITL was the commonest T-NHL misclassified on histopathological results. FCI also confirmed the definite involvement in 7/83 (8.4%) and 27/83 (32.5%) bone marrow (BM) samples reported as suspicious and uninvolved, respectively, on histopathological evaluation. Conclusion AITL was the most frequently diagnosed T/NK-NHL in this study. FCI provided a distinct advantage in detecting BM involvement by T/NK-NHL, especially in patients with low-level involvement. Overall, our study concluded that FCI plays a critical role in the diagnosis, subtyping, and staging of T/NK-NHL in real-world practice.

Abstract
Simple Summary In hematologic cancers, Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) monitoring, using either molecular (PCR) or immunophenotypic (MFC) diagnostics, allows the identification of rare cancer cells, readily detectable either in the bone marrow or in the peripheral blood at very low levels, far below the limit of classic microscopy. In this paper, we outlined the state-of-the-art of MFC-based MRD detection in different hematologic settings, highlighting main recommendations and new challenges for using such method in patients with acute leukemias or chronic hematologic neoplasms. The combination of new molecular technologies with advanced flow cytometry is progressively allowing clinicians to design a personalized therapeutic path, proportionate to the biological aggressiveness of the disease, in particular by using novel immunotherapies, in view of a modern decision-making process, based on precision medicine. Abstract Along with the evolution of immunophenotypic and molecular diagnostics, the assessment of Minimal Residual Disease (MRD) has progressively become a keystone in the clinical management of hematologic malignancies, enabling valuable post-therapy risk stratifications and guiding risk-adapted therapeutic approaches. However, specific prognostic values of MRD in different hematological settings, as well as its appropriate clinical uses (basically, when to measure it and how to deal with different MRD levels), still need further investigations, aiming to improve standardization and harmonization of MRD monitoring protocols and MRD-driven therapeutic strategies. Currently, MRD measurement in hematological neoplasms with bone marrow involvement is based on advanced highly sensitive methods, able to detect either specific genetic abnormalities (by PCR-based techniques and next-generation sequencing) or tumor-associated immunophenotypic profiles (by multiparametric flow cytometry, MFC). In this review, we focus on the growing clinical role for MFC-MRD diagnostics in hematological malignancies—from acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukemias (AML, B-ALL and T-ALL) to chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and multiple myeloma (MM)—providing a comparative overview on technical aspects, clinical implications, advantages and pitfalls of MFC-MRD monitoring in different clinical settings.

Abstract
We performed a retrospective analysis to investigate dynamic peri-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) minimal/measurable residual disease (MRD) on outcomes in patients with T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL). A total of 271 patients were enrolled and classified into three groups: unchanged negative MRD pre- and post-HSCT group (group A), post-MRD non-increase group (group B), and post-MRD increase group (group C). The patients in group B and group C experienced a higher cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) (42% vs. 71% vs. 16%, P<0.001) and lower leukemia-free survival (LFS) (46% vs. 21% vs. 70%, P<0.001) and overall survival (OS) (50% vs. 28% vs. 72%, P<0.001) than in group A, but there was no significant difference in non-relapse mortality (NRM) among three groups (14% vs. 12% vs. 8%, P=0.752). Multivariate analysis showed that dynamic peri-HSCT MRD was associated with CIR (HR=2.392, 95% CI, 1.816-3.151, P<0.001), LFS (HR=1.964, 95% CI, 1.546-2.496, P<0.001) and OS (HR=1.731, 95% CI, 1.348-2.222, P<0.001). We also established a risk scoring system based on dynamic peri-HSCT MRD combined with remission status pre-HSCT and onset of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). This risk scoring system could better distinguish CIR (c=0.730) than that for pre-HSCT MRD (c=0.562), post-HSCT MRD (c=0.616) and pre- and post-MRD dynamics (c=0.648). Our results confirm the outcome predictive value of dynamic peri-HSCT MRD either alone or in combination with other variables for patients with T-ALL.

Abstract
The use of pediatrics-inspired protocols in adolescent and young adult (AYA) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) results in superior survival compared with the adult protocols. Pediatrics-inspired protocols carry an increased risk of toxicity and treatment-related mortality in low resource settings, which can offset the potential benefits. We studied the outcomes and prognostic factors in the treatment of AYA ALL with a pediatrics-inspired regimen. We retrieved data regarding demographics, investigations, treatment details, and toxicities from the electronic medical records of patients diagnosed with ALL in the 15- to 25-year-old age group who were initiated on a modified Berlin-Frankfurt-Münster 90 (BFM-90) protocol between January 2013 and December 2016 at the Tata Memorial Centre. A total of 349 patients in the 15- to 25-year-old age group were treated with a modified BFM-90 protocol. The use of this pediatrics-inspired protocol resulted in a 3-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of 59.4% and 61.8%, respectively. Only 15 patients underwent an allogeneic stem cell transplant. Minimal residual disease (MRD) persistence postinduction emerged as the only factor predictive of poor outcomes. A modified BFM-90 protocol is an effective and safe regimen for AYA ALL with an OS and EFS comparable to the published literature.

Abstract
Minimal residual disease (MRD) is an important independent prognostic factor for relapse and survival in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Compared with adult B-cell ALL, reports of adult T-cell ALL (T-ALL) MRD have been scarce and mostly based on molecular methods. We evaluated the prognostic value of multiparameter flow cytometry (FCM)-based MRD at the end of induction (EOI-MRD). The present retrospective study included 94 adult patients with T-ALL. MRD was detected by six- to eight-colour FCM. Patients who were EOI-MRD positive had a higher cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) (87·6% vs. 38·8%, P = 0·0020), and a lower relapse-free survival (RFS) (5·4% vs. 61·0%, P = 0·0005) and overall survival (OS) (32·7% vs. 69·7%, P < 0·0001) than those who were EOI-MRD negative. Moreover, for patients who received allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) at their first remission, EOI-MRD positivity was predictive of post-transplant relapse (2-year CIR: 68·2% vs. 4·0%, P = 0·0003). Multivariate analysis showed that EOI-MRD was an independent prognostic factor for CIR [hazard ratio (HR) 2·139, P = 0·046], RFS (HR 2·125, P = 0·048) and OS (HR 2·987, P = 0·017). In conclusion, EOI-MRD based on FCM was an independent prognostic factor for relapse and survival in adult T-ALL. For patients who underwent HSCT, EOI-MRD could be used to identify patients with a high risk of relapse after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Robust and applicable risk-stratifying genetic factors at diagnosis in pediatric T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) are still lacking, and most protocols rely on measurable residual disease (MRD) assessment. In our study, we aimed to analyze the impact of NOTCH1, FBXW7, PTEN, and RAS mutations, the measurable residual disease (MRD) levels assessed by flow cytometry (FCM-MRD) and other reported risk factors in a Spanish cohort of pediatric T-ALL patients. We included 199 patients treated with SEHOP and PETHEMA consecutive protocols from 1998 to 2019. We observed a better outcome of patients included in the newest SEHOP-PETHEMA-2013 protocol compared to the previous SHOP-2005 cohort. FCM-MRD significantly predicted outcome in both protocols, but the impact at early and late time points differed between protocols. The impact of FCM-MRD at late time points was more evident in SEHOP-PETHEMA 2013, whereas in SHOP-2005 FCM-MRD was predictive of outcome at early time points. Genetics impact was different in SHOP-2005 and SEHOP-PETHEMA-2013 cohorts: NOTCH1 mutations impacted on overall survival only in the SEHOP-PETHEMA-2013 cohort, whereas homozygous deletions of CDKN2A/B had a significantly higher CIR in SHOP-2005 patients. We applied the clinical classification combining oncogenetics, WBC count and MRD levels at the end of induction as previously reported by the FRALLE group. Using this score, we identified different subgroups of patients with statistically different outcome in both Spanish cohorts. In SHOP-2005, the FRALLE classifier identified a subgroup of high-risk patients with poorer survival. In the newest protocol SEHOP-PETHEMA-2013, a very low-risk group of patients with excellent outcome and no relapses was detected, with borderline significance. Overall, FCM-MRD, WBC count and oncogenetics may refine the risk-stratification, helping to design tailored approaches for pediatric T-ALL patients.
