Abstract
Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) has been recognized as a rare adverse event following the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccination. We report a case of neuropsychiatric symptoms and refractory HLH in a woman with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) after receiving her COVID-19 vaccine treated with belimumab, later found to have intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) at autopsy. A 61-year-old woman with SLE was referred to our hospital because of impaired consciousness and fever. One month prior to consulting, she received her second COVID-19 vaccine dose. Afterward, her consciousness level decreased, and she developed a high fever. She tested negative for SARS-CoV-2. Neuropsychiatric SLE was suspected; therefore, glucocorticoid pulse therapy was initiated on day 1 and 8. She had thrombocytopenia, increased serum ferritin levels and hemophagocytosis. The patient was diagnosed with HLH and treated with etoposide, dexamethasone and cyclosporine. Despite treatment, the patient died on day 75; autopsy report findings suggested IVLBCL as the underlying cause of HLH. Differentiating comorbid conditions remains difficult; however, in the case of an atypical clinical presentation, other causes should be considered. Therefore, we speculate that the COVID-19 vaccination and her autoimmune condition may have expedited IVLBCL development.

Abstract
Measurable residual disease (MRD) status before transplantation has been shown to be a strong prognostic factor in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). However, the outcomes of unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation based on the MRD status have not been fully investigated. In this retrospective study, we compared the outcomes of 715 consecutive adults with Ph+ ALL in complete remission who underwent unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) (single-unit UCBT, n = 232 [4/6, 5/6, and 6/6 HLA match]), HLA-matched unrelated bone marrow transplantation (UBMT; n = 292 [8/8 HLA match]), or HLA-mismatched UBMT (n = 191 [7/8 HLA match]). In the MRD+ cohort, adjusted 3-year leukemia-free survival rates were 59.8%, 38.3%, and 55.5% after UCBT, HLA-matched UBMT, and HLA-mismatched UBMT, respectively. In the MRD- cohort, the corresponding rates were 65.3%, 70.4%, and 69.7%, respectively. The MRD+ HLA-matched UBMT group had a significantly higher risk of relapse than the MRD+ HLA-mismatched UBMT group (hazard ratio [HR] in the MRD+ HLA-mismatched UBMT group, 0.33; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.15-0.74) and the MRD+ UCBT group (HR in the MRD+ UCBT group, 0.38; 95% CI 0.18-0.83). Furthermore, HLA-matched UBMT had a significant effect of MRD on death (HR 1.87; 95% CI 1.19-2.94), relapse or death (HR 2.24; 95% CI 1.50-3.34), and relapse (HR 3.12; 95% CI 1.75-5.57), while UCBT and HLA-mismatched UBMT did not. In conclusion, our data indicate Ph+ ALL patients with positive MRD may benefit from undergoing UCBT or HLA-mismatched UBMT instead of HLA-matched UBMT to reduce leukemic relapse.

Abstract
Research and development of personalized cancer vaccines as precision medicine are ongoing. We predicted human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-compatible cancer antigen candidate peptides based on patient-specific cancer genomic profiles and performed a Phase I clinical trial for the safety and tolerability of cancer vaccines with human platelet lysate-induced antigen-presenting cells (HPL-APCs) from peripheral monocytes. Among the five enrolled patients, two patients completed six doses per course (2-3 × 107 cells per dose), and an interim analysis was performed based on the immune response. An immune response was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent spot (ELISpot) assays to HLA-A*33:03-matched KRASWT, HLA-DRB1*09:01-compliant KRASWT or G12D, or HLA-A*31:01-matched SMAD4WT, and HLA-DRB1*04:01-matched SMAD4G365D peptides in two completed cases, respectively. Moreover, SMAD4WT-specific CD8+ effector memory T cells were amplified. However, an attenuation of the acquired immune response was observed 6 months after one course of cancer vaccination as the disease progressed. This study confirmed the safety and tolerability of HPL-APCs in advanced and recurrent cancers refractory to standard therapy and is the first clinical report to demonstrate the immunoinducibility of personalized cancer vaccines using HPL-APCs. Phase II clinical trials to determine immune responses with optimized adjuvant drugs and continued administration are expected to demonstrate efficacy.

Abstract
TAFRO syndrome was first described in 2010, standing for thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, reticulin fibrosis and organomegaly. Because the lymph node histopathology of TAFRO syndrome mimics idiopathic multicentric Castleman disease (iMCD), some researchers consider TAFRO syndrome to be a subtype of iMCD. However, the clinical features of TAFRO syndrome considerably differ from those of iMCD without TAFRO. The clinical features of patients with TAFRO syndrome with or without iMCD-histopathology are similar, and these patients require an accurate diagnosis and urgent treatment. Although a histological diagnosis, including a differential diagnosis, is important, lymph node involvement in patients with TAFRO syndrome is usually modest or sometimes absent. Furthermore, a bleeding tendency due to thrombocytopenia and severe anasarca hampers performing a biopsy. Nonetheless, patients with various other disorders may manifest TAFRO syndrome-like symptoms, making the differential diagnosis in borderline cases difficult. Therefore, the establishment of precise and specific biomarkers is important.

Abstract
We herein report a patient with primary effusion lymphoma-like adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (PEL-like ATL) that developed during hemodialysis. A 77-year-old man developed a fever and ascites. Elevated levels of LDH, calcium and sIL-2R along with antibodies to HTLV-1 were seen in his blood. Lymphoma cells in ascites were positive for HTLV-1 proviral DNA, but there were no neoplastic cells in peripheral blood or bone marrow and no lymphadenopathy. He was therefore diagnosed with PEL-like ATL, acute-type. After administration of Brentuximab Vedotin, his serum LDH, sIL-2R and atypical cells in ascites cytology decreased. The development of novel effective molecular-targeted therapies is warranted.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Is it possible to identify the optimal puncture position by image analysis where oocyte degeneration is reduced in ICSI procedure?
Summary answer
Visualizing the likelihood of unintentional membrane rupture (UMR) using image analysis can reduce oocyte degeneration and thereby generate more embryos available for treatment.
What is known already
It is known that the oocyte degeneration after both conventional-ICSI and Piezo-ICSI are often observed when UMR occurs during the puncturing process and the likelihood of UMR may depends on the location of the puncture site on the oolemma. Identifying the appropriate puncturing position may decrease the likelihood of membrane rupture and thus degeneration, however, there are no studies identifying the optimal puncture position during ICSI.
Study design, size, duration
We have developed the ICSI Position Detector (IPD), which can identify an area where rupture is likely to occur and visualize it on a video monitor. This study included 1,110 mature oocytes retrieved from 190 consenting patients. Matured oocytes were inseminated either by Conventional-ICSI (n = 437, average maternal age: 39.1±4.6 y.o.) or Piezo-ICSI (n = 673, average maternal age: 38.6±4.5 y.o.). ICSI was performed blindly, moving images were recorded and analyzed retrospectively during ICSI using IPD.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Inseminated oocytes were subsequently divided into two groups according to IPD results, oocytes on which ICSI was performed at the position with a low chance of UMR (appropriate group), and with a high chance of UMR (non-appropriate group) by IPD. The rates of UMR, degeneration, fertilization (2PN), blastocyst formation, and good-quality blastocyst (Grade 3BB and above on day 5 by the Gardner scoring) were compared between the two groups of both conventional-ICSI and Piezo-ICSI.
Main results and the role of chance
The areas in which UMR is less likely to occur and more likely to occur are heterogeneously distributed. When ICSI was performed blindly, about half was from the non-appropriate position. In appropriate group of Piezo-ICSI, rates of UMR (4.3% vs. 17.4%, P < 0.001) and degeneration (1.0% vs. 5.7%, P < 0.001) were significantly lower than those of non-appropriate group, whereas rates of fertilization (88.0% vs. 78.4%, P < 0.01) and blastocyst formation (57.8% vs. 45.9%, P < 0.01) were significantly higher than those of non-appropriate group, respectively. The rate of good-quality blastocyst (28.8% vs. 24.9%) was in favor of appropriate group, but not significantly different. In appropriate group of Conventional-ICSI, rates of UMR (6.7% vs. 20.6%, P < 0.001) and degeneration (1.5% vs. 6.6%, P < 0.01) were significantly lower than those of non-appropriate group, whereas rate of fertilization (88.7% vs. 69.5, P < 0.001) was significantly higher than those of non-appropriate group, respectively. The rates of blastocyst formation (37.5% vs. 35.3%), good-quality blastocyst (21.3% vs. 18.7%) were all in favor of appropriate group, but not significantly different.
Limitations, reasons for caution
This is a single private fertility clinic study. Its reproducibility should be assessed in different laboratory conditions and the hands of different operators. Moreover, specific studies should be addressed on the effect of the other putative confounders under investigation (e.g. kind of ovulation trigger, patient demographics, culture environment, etc.).
Wider implications of the findings
This study demonstrated that the IPD is useful to identify the optimal puncture location site to prevent UMR on ICSI procedure, resulting in reducing UMR and degeneration of the oocytes and increasing culture results, thereby, generating more embryos available for transfer or cryopreservation.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
What is the frequency of azoospermia factor (AZF) microdeletions and sperm retrieval rate (SRR) by micro TESE in patients with these deletions?
Summary answer
AZFc is most frequent of Y chromosome microdeletions and a predictor of micro TESE outcome in Japanese azoospermic men.
What is known already
After Klinefelter syndrome, Y chromosome microdeletions are the second most frequent genetic cause of male infertility, with a prevalence of 2%-10% in non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and three spermatogenesis loci in the Y chromosome long arm (Yq11) have been classified as AZFa, AZFb, and AZFc. The classical correlation of histopathology phenotypes with these three microdeletions comprises of complete absence of germ cells (Sertoli cell-only syndrome) in patients with AZFa microdeletions, maturation arrest of meiosis in patients with AZFb microdeletions, and hypospermatogenesis in patients with AZFc microdeletions, however, individual variation in the extent of deletions has led to various spermatogenic phenotypes.
Study design, size, duration
We performed a retrospective study based on two reproduction centers in Japan and evaluated 1373 azoospermic patients in our clinics between September 2013 and December 2021. We investigated the frequency of AZF microdeletions and SRR by micro TESE in patients with these microdeletions and therefore aimed to evaluate the correlation between AZF microdeletions and micro TESE results.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
A total of 1373 azoospermic were enrolled. After the diagnosis of azoospermia, karyotype analysis and detection of Y chromosome microdeletions were performed on peripheral blood lymphocytes of these patients. Y chromosome microdeletions in AZFa, AZFb, and AZFc regions were detected using Promega Y Chromosome AZF Analysis System version 2.0 (Promega Co.). Twenty sequence-tagged sites within the AZF region of Yq11 and the sex-determining region Y gene were targeted for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification.
Main results and the role of chance
One hundred and fifty-two AZF microdeletions (11.1%) were detected in the azoospermic patients. The most common deleted region was AZFc (60 cases, 4.4%). Among the patients, 17 (1.2%), 1 (0.1%), 42 (3.1%), 13 (1.0%), and 6 (0.5%) had AZFa, AZFa+b, AZFb+c, AZFb, and AZFa+b+c microdeletions, respectively. When the cases were grouped according to causes of infertility that could be detected, no Y chromosome microdeletions were detected in some groups (cases with Klinefelter Syndrome, hypogonadotropic hypogonadism, congenital absence of vas deferens, and 47, XYY karyotype). Fifty-three azoospermic men with AZFc microdeletions underwent micro TESE, and spermatozoa were detected in 88.7% (47/53) of these men. In contrast, we detected spermatozoa in only 20.4% (109/534) of the azoospermic men without AZF microdeletions. The SRR was much higher in patients with AZFc microdeletions than that of patients without AZF deletions. Although three azoospermic men with AZFb+c microdeletions had also undergone micro TESE following patient request, we did not retrieve spermatozoa.
Limitations, reasons for caution
We excluded post chemotherapy NOA showing 46, XX and AZFa+b+c deletions post bone marrow transplantation from female donor. Additionally, we did not detect AZFc partial deletion including gr/gr deletion. The cohort size of this study is not small, however, our screened population of infertile men may be biased.
Wider implications of the findings
NOA patients with AZFc microdeletions had a high percentage of successful sperm retrieval by micro TESE. Our study emphasizes that diagnosis of Y chromosome microdeletions is critical for preconception genetic counseling and provides clinically valuable prognostic information to couples considering surgical sperm retrieval.

Abstract
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) blast phase (monocytic lineage) is extremely rare. A 39-year-old Japanese man was diagnosed with CML blast phase (monocytic lineage). T315I mutation was positive, ponatinib was initially started, and then, allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) was performed. Seven days after allo-HSCT, hyper-acute graft-versus-host disease developed, and medial temporal lobe encephalitis emerged 24 days after allo-HSCT. He was alive for over 1 year after allo-HSCT. This is the first case report of HSCT for CML blast phase (monocytic lineage) in tyrosine kinase inhibitor era. Further cases should be documented for effective treatment regimen and analysis of clinical features.

Abstract
We compared the outcomes of autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) with those of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) from a human leukocyte antigen-matched related donor in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Newly diagnosed patients who underwent allo-SCT (n = 486) or auto-SCT (n = 99) after achieving first complete remission (CR) were included. Propensity score matching (PS) and an inverse probability of the treatment weighting (IPTW) analysis were applied to compensate for imbalances in baseline characteristics. The 5 years rates of overall survival (OS) among those in the PS-matched cohorts were 57% [95% confidence interval (CI) 46-67%] for those who received allo-SCT and 44% (95% CI 33-54%) for those who received auto-SCT. Multivariable, propensity score-matched, and IPTW analyses all revealed no statistically significant differences in OS between the two groups [hazard ratios (HR) 0.81, 95% CI 0.53-1.27, p = 0.36; HR 0.84, 95% CI 0.40-1.78, p = 0.65; HR 0.71, 95% CI 0.25-2.02, p = 0.53, respectively]. Prospective trials that include autologous transplantation as a treatment option are needed to examine the potential of autologous transplantation.

Abstract
The emergence of tyrosine kinase inhibitors as part of a front‐line treatment has greatly improved the clinical outcome of the patients with Ph+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). However, a portion of them still become refractory to the therapy mainly through acquiring mutations in the BCR‐ABL1 gene, necessitating a novel strategy to treat tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)‐resistant Ph+ ALL cases. In this report, we show evidence that RUNX1 transcription factor stringently controls the expression of BCR‐ABL1, which can strategically be targeted by our novel RUNX inhibitor, Chb‐M'. Through a series of in vitro experiments, we identified that RUNX1 binds to the promoter of BCR and directly transactivates BCR‐ABL1 expression in Ph+ ALL cell lines. These cells showed significantly reduced expression of BCR‐ABL1 with suppressed proliferation upon RUNX1 knockdown. Moreover, treatment with Chb‐M' consistently downregulated the expression of BCR‐ABL1 in these cells and this drug was highly effective even in an imatinib‐resistant Ph+ ALL cell line. In good agreement with these findings, forced expression of BCR‐ABL1 in these cells conferred relative resistance to Chb‐M'. In addition, in vivo experiments with the Ph+ ALL patient‐derived xenograft cells showed similar results. In summary, targeting RUNX1 therapeutically in Ph+ ALL cells may lead to overcoming TKI resistance through the transcriptional regulation of BCR‐ABL1. Chb‐M' could be a novel drug for patients with TKI‐resistant refractory Ph+ ALL.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Immunoglobulin 4 (IgG4)-related disease (IgG4-RD) is a lymphoproliferative disorder characterized by elevated serum IgG4 levels and tissue infiltration of IgG4-positive plasma cells. We analyzed the serum proteins, whose levels varied based on the disease state and treatment. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serum proteins from patients with IgG4-related disease and healthy subjects were resolved using two-dimensional electrophoresis, silver-stained, and scanned. Alternatively, the proteins were labeled with Cy2, Cy3, and Cy5 before electrophoresis. The proteins, whose expression differed significantly between patients and healthy individuals, and between before and after steroid treatment, were identified and validated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. RESULTS Pre-treatment sera from patients with IgG4-related disease was characterized by increased levels of immunoglobulins such as IgG1, IgG4; inflammatory factors such as α-1 antitrypsin (A1AT); and proteins associated with immune system regulation such as clusterin and leucine-rich α-2-glycoprotein (LRG-1). The serum levels of A1AT, LRG-1 and clusterin, during treatment with prednisolone for up to 12 months revealed that LRG-1 levels were halved after 1 month of treatment, comparable to those in healthy subjects; LRG-1 levels remained normal until the end of treatment. CONCLUSION LRG-1 could serve as a novel biomarker of IgG4-related diseases.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
Does direct unequal cleavage (DC) affect embryonic development after ICSI with testicular sperm (TESE-ICSI) in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia (NOA) and/or obstructive azoospermia (OA)?
Summary answer
The incidence of DC at the first cleavage (DC1) was extremely high and DC1 negatively affected embryonic development in NOA patients.
What is known already
It has been reported that the blastocyst development of embryos with direct cleavage (DC) was significantly lower than that without DC, but the clinical pregnancy rate after blastocyst transfer was not different with or without DC. The incidence of DC has been reported to be significantly higher after ICSI with testicular sperm (TESE-ICSI) than ICSI with ejaculated sperm (Ej), but to our knowledge, there are few reports investigating that the embryos with DC after TESE-ICSI affect embryonic development.
Study design, size, duration
We conducted a retrospective cohort study using time-lapse incubators (Geri, Genea Biomedx, Australia) from September 2018 to November 2020. Of 1033 two-pronuclear (2PN) embryos from TESE-ICSI, 486 and 547 embryos were from OA (35.9±5.5 years) and NOA (33.7±5.2 years), respectively. As an age matched control, we chose 581 embryos from ICSI using Ej (36.5±4.4 years).
Participants/materials, setting, methods
DC embryos were classified as DC1 (DC at first cleavage), DC2 (DC at second cleavage), and non-DC (without DC). The incidences of DC1 or DC2 and blastocyst development rates were compared among OA, NOA and Ej groups. In TESE-ICSI group, we compared blastocyst development rates with or without DC between good and poor quality embryos on day 3. Good quality embryos were defined as 8 cells with G3 or more by the Veeck’s classification.
Main results and the role of chance
DC1 incidence was significantly higher in NOA (37.3%) than OA (27.8%) and Ej (22.7%) (P < 0.01), whereas DC2 incidence was not statistically different among three groups; NOA (15.7%), OA (15.0%) and Ej (13.4%). Blastocyst development rates in DC1 were 17.8%, 19.5% and 25.8% for NOA, OA and Ej, respectively, which were significantly lower compared to non-DC in corresponding three groups (65.1%, 67.7%, and 68.5%, respectively, P < 0.01). In TESE-ICSI group, good-quality embryo rate on day 3 was significantly lower in DC1 (34.5%, P < 0.01) than DC2 (60.9%) or non-DC (54.2%). Additionally, blastocyst development rates in DC1 and DC2 were significantly lower than non-DC regardless of embryonic grades on day 3 (35.1%, 51.0%, and 81.6% for good-quality embryos on day 3, 10.1%, 27.0%, and 49.1% for poor-quality embryos on day 3, respectively, P < 0.05). When immotile sperm was used for TESE-ICSI, DC1 incidence was 40.0% (6/15), which did not show statistically differences. When performing single frozen-thawed blastocyst transfers, no pregnancies resulted from either DC1 (n = 13) or DC2 (n = 3) embryos in TESE-ICSI group.
Limitations, reasons for caution
We had a few data about the pregnancy rates after blastocyst transfers with DC, because embryos with DC were seldom transferred due to those lower priority. Although DC might be influenced by the sperm, we did not analyze the incidence of DC by taking the semen factors into account.
Wider implications of the findings: The incidence of DC1 was extremely high and DC1 negatively affected embryonic development in NOA patients. Therefore, it is important to observe embryos using time-lapse incubator in order to recognize embryos with/without pregnancy potential, especially for embryos with DC1 in NOA patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Study question
To analyze whether microfluidic sperm selection (MSS) by ZyMōt™ improves sperm DNA fragmentation rate and embryonic development compared to density gradient centrifugation with swim-up (DGCS).
Summary answer
MSS by ZyMōt™ selects sperm for clinical use with less DNA damage significantly compared to DGCS.
What is known already
Conventional sperm preparation methods, such as density gradient centrifugation and the swim-up method utilize centrifugation during processing, may damage the sperm. MSS may allow for improved selection of normal sperm compared with conventional sperm preparation as it yields sperm with a lower DNA fragmentation rate. However, there are few clinical studies by sibling oocytes study compared to DGCS.
Study design, size, duration
This prospective study was performed between March 2020 and May 2020 at a reproductive center. All patients involved gave written consent, and institutional review board approval was granted. A total of 575 metaphase II oocytes were collected from 49 cycles. Wife’s age was 34.7 ± 3.9 years old. Raw sperm concentration and motile sperm concentration was 63.1 ± 78.7M/mL, and 41.6 ± 67.7M/mL, respectively.
Participants/materials, setting, methods
Patients who performed ART for the first or second time were divided into two groups according to MSS and DGCS. Sperm DNA fragmentation rate (SDFR) and motile sperm concentration were compered between MSS and DGCS. SDFR was measured by sperm chromatin structure assay (SCSA) using a flow cytometer. Sibling oocytes were randomized into MSS-IVF, DGCS-IVF, MSS-ICSI, and DGCS-ICSI. Rate of two pronuclear (2PN) oocytes, blastocysts development, and good-quality blastocysts were compared between each group.
Main results and the role of chance
SDFR was 13.5 ± 11.8% for raw semen. SDFR was significantly lower after MSS (3.6 ± 4.1%) than that for raw semen and after DGCS (17.4 ± 14.8%) (P < 0.01). Motile sperm concentration after MSS (19.0 ± 28.3M/mL) was significantly higher after than after DGCS (15.4 ± 15.3M/mL) (P < 0.01). The number of IVF performed was 145 for MSS and 132 for DGCS. IVF results (MSS vs DGCS) were 2PN rate (73.1% vs 72.0%), blastocysts development rate (65.3% vs 55.4%), and good quality blastocysts rate (43.2% vs 34.9%). The number of ICSI performed was 149 for MSS and 149 for DGCS. ICSI results (MSS vs DGCS) were 2PN rate (77.9% vs 79.2%), blastocysts development rate (68.8% vs 65.8%), and good quality blastocysts rate (35.8% vs 30.6%). No significant difference was observed between MSS and DGCS for each parameter both IVF and ICSI.
Limitations, reasons for caution
The participants were limited to those who collected semen of 2mL or more and motile sperm concentration of above 1M/mL, because semen sample needed to be divided to MSS and DGCS.
Wider implications of the findings: This is the first study to conducted in sibling oosytes study with MSS and DGCS, in both IVF and ICSI. MSS is effective in collecting sperm with less DNA damage compared to DGCS. Motile sperm concentration after using MSS is sufficient to perform IVF as well as DGCS.

Abstract
Minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring by quantitative real-time reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is the standard of care in Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph-positive ALL). We evaluated the impact of MRD status at hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) on relapse, as measured by a unified protocol at a central laboratory. Only patients with Ph-positive ALL who had minor transcripts (e1a2) and who underwent allogeneic HCT in first complete remission between 2008 and 2017 were included. First, patients with negative-MRD (n = 196) and positive-MRD (n = 61) at HCT were analyzed. As expected, MRD positivity at HCT was significantly associated with an increased risk of hematological relapse (hazard ratio [HR], 2.91; 95% CI 1.67-5.08; P < 0.001) in the multivariate analysis. Next, patients with positive-MRD were divided into low-MRD (n = 39) and high-MRD (n = 22) groups. In the multivariate analysis, high-MRD at HCT was not significantly associated with an increased risk of hematological relapse compared to the low-MRD group (HR 1.10; 95% CI 0.54-2.83; P = 0.620). These results indicate that the therapeutic decisions should be made based on MRD positivity, rather than on the MRD level, at HCT.

Abstract
Castleman disease (CD) is a rare lymphoproliferative disorder that can be unicentric or multicentric. Multicentric CD (MCD) is further subdivided into human herpesvirus type-8-associated, POEMS syndrome-associated, and idiopathic (iMCD). TAFRO syndrome is a newly identified disorder of unknown etiology characterized by thrombocytopenia, anasarca, fever, reticulin myelofibrosis, renal dysfunction, and organomegaly. The TAFRO syndrome is sometimes regarded as a subtype of iMCD (TAFRO-iMCD), whereas iMCD without TAFRO syndrome is considered "not otherwise specified" (iMCD-NOS). However, a proportion of patients with TAFRO syndrome have been diagnosed without lymph node biopsies (TAFRO syndrome without proven iMCD; TAFRO-w/op-iMCD). To clarify the clinical features of iMCD-NOS, TAFRO-iMCD, and TAFRO-w/op-iMCD, we retrospectively analyzed 220 patients extracted from the database of the Multicenter Collaborative Retrospective Study for Establishing the Concept of TAFRO Syndrome. The patients included 87 with iMCD-NOS, 63 with TAFRO-iMCD, and 19 with TAFRO-w/op-iMCD. Patients in all three groups exhibited anemia, hypoalbuminemia, and elevated serum C-reactive protein and interleukin-6 levels. No significant differences in clinical, laboratory, and prognostic features were noted between the TAFRO-iMCD, and TAFRO-w/op-iMCD groups. However, the iMCD-NOS group exhibited polyclonal hyper-γ-globulinemia. The five-year survival rates of patients in the iMCD-NOS and TAFRO-involved groups were 100% and 66.5%, respectively (dropping markedly during the first few months in the latter). The iMCD-NOS and the TAFRO-iMCD samples typically showed plasma cell and mixed-type histologies, respectively. Thus, iMCD can be classified into two distinct subtypes, iMCD-NOS and TAFRO-iMCD. As such, TAFRO-iMCD and TAFRO-w/op-iMCD may be considered the same entity, requiring prompt diagnosis and intensive care.

Abstract
A 73-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a persistent fever, anemia, and a mass in the left pubic region. The findings of biopsy evaluations of the mass and a left inguinal lymph node were consistent with Castleman disease (CD) of plasma cell type. His serum interleukin 6 (IL-6) level was remarkably elevated, supporting the diagnosis of CD. However, imaging analyses revealed destruction of the pubic bone by the mass, which was atypical for CD. Therefore, another deeper biopsy was performed, which finally led to the diagnosis of IL-6-producing osteosarcoma. We conclude that clinicians should carefully exclude malignancies prior to making a CD diagnosis.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) administration after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may carry a survival benefit in Philadelphia chromosome‐positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL). Therefore, we investigated whether TKI prophylaxis for negative‐minimal residual disease (MRD) after HSCT would improve patient outcomes in this nationwide retrospective cohort study. We included patients with Ph+ ALL who underwent their first allogeneic HSCT between 2001 and 2016, received TKI before HSCT, and achieved negative‐MRD status within 180 days after HSCT. Of 850 patients for inclusion, 50 patients received TKI prophylaxis, mostly imatinib or dasatinib (median dose: 400 mg with imatinib and 40 mg with dasatinib). In a multivariate analysis, disease status at HSCT was the sole risk factor for relapse (hazard ratio, 3.58; P < .001 for positive‐MRD with complete remission [CR] and hazard ratio, 6.13; P < .001 for active disease). TKI prophylaxis was not associated with a decreased risk of relapse or superior overall survival in either the whole cohort or in the analysis limited to negative‐MRD or positive‐MRD with CR1 at HSCT. Meanwhile, TKI prophylaxis limited to dasatinib might be associated with a decreased risk of relapse (hazard ratio, 0.34; P = .140), unlike imatinib. Alternative strategies using new‐generation TKI for high‐risk patients are warranted to improve the outcomes after allogeneic HSCT.

Abstract
Cytogenetic abnormalities are well known and powerful independent prognostic factors for various hematologic disorders. Although the combination of chemotherapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) is now considered the standard of care in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia, little is known about the impact of additional cytogenetic abnormalities (ACAs). Therefore, we retrospectively evaluated 1375 adult patients who underwent their first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the TKI era. In this study, 224 patients had ACAs (16.3%). The ACAs that were seen in more than 20 cases (1.5%) were as follows: -7, der(22), der(9), +8, and +X. Overall survival at 4 years was 56.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 49.4% to 63.7%) in the group with ACAs and 60.5% (95% CI, 57.3% to 63.5%) in the group without ACAs (P = .266). The cumulative incidence of relapse at 4 years was 28.9% (95% CI, 22.6% to 35.6%) in the group with ACAs and 21.9% (95% CI, 19.4% to 24.6%) in the group with Ph alone (P = .051). In multivariate analyses there were no statistically significant differences in the risk of overall mortality or risk of relapse between the groups with and without ACAs. In the subgroup analyses of specific ACAs, although the presence of +8 was associated with a higher relapse rate in univariate and multivariate analyses, no specific ACA was associated with poor overall survival. Further studies will be needed to verify the impact of specific ACAs on transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
Background Dasatinib has shown promising anti-leukemic activity against chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). However, patients receiving dasatinib frequently require dose reductions and treatment interruptions (treatment alteration). Methods We prospectively analyzed the frequency and significance of treatment alteration during dasatinib therapy in patients with CML. In all patients, trough plasma concentrations of dasatinib (Cmin) at steady state were assessed on day 28 of therapy. Results 28% of patients had their doses reduced at a median of 42 days, and 25% of patients had temporarily interrupted at a median of 54 days after treatment initiation. The overall dasatinib treatment alteration-free rate at 1 year was 66%. Age was significantly correlated with Cmin on day 28 (p = 0.014), and the correlation remained significant after adjusting dasatinib dose (g), body weight (kg) (Cmin/D/W) (p = 0.026). In the univariate analysis, deep molecular response, advanced PS, higher Cmin/D/W were associated with a significantly higher risk of treatment alteration (HR 4.19, 95% CI: 1.06–16.60, p = 0.041; HR 5.26, 95% CI: 1.33–20.80, p = 0.018; and HR 10.15, 95% CI: 2.55–40.48, p = 0.001, respectively). In the multivariate analysis, advanced PS and higher Cmin/D/W were correlated with the incidence of treatment alteration (HR 4.78, 95% CI: 1.01–22.70, p = 0.049; HR 6.17, 95% CI: 1.17–32.50, respectively). Conclusion Current data demonstrate that patients treated with dasatinib who displayed a high Cmin/D/W value and/or advanced PS were at a high risk for altered treatment.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with the conventional cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (CY/TBI) regimen is an essential therapeutic strategy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in adults. Medium-dose etoposide (VP16, 30-40 mg/kg) can be added to intensify this CY/TBI regimen and reduce relapse; however, differences in prognosis between the VP16/CY/TBI and CY/TBI regimens have not yet been fully analyzed. We conducted a retrospective cohort study using a Japanese transplant registry database to compare the prognosis between the VP16/CY/TBI (VP16, total 30-40 mg/kg) (N = 376) and CY/TBI (N = 1178) regimens in adult patients with ALL transplanted at complete remission (CR) between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2014. Our analyses indicated that VP16/CY/TBI significantly reduced relapse compared with CY/TBI (risk ratio, 0.75; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.56-1.00; P = .05) with a corresponding improvement in leukemia-free survival (hazard ratio [HR], 0.76; 95%CI, 0.62-0.93; P = .01), particularly in patients transplanted at CR1 with advanced-risk (positive minimal residual disease, presence of poor-risk cytogenetics, or an initial elevated leukocyte count) (HR, 0.75; 95%CI, 0.56-1.00; P = .05) or those transplanted beyond CR2 (HR, 0.58; 95%CI, 0.39-0.88; P = .01). The addition of VP16 did not increase post-transplant complications or nonrelapse mortality (HR, 0.88; 95%CI, 0.65-1.18; P = .38). This study is the first to reveal the efficacy of the addition of medium-dose VP16 to CY/TBI in high-risk ALL. To establish new myeloablative conditioning regimens including VP16, a large-scale prospective study is necessary.

Abstract
The optimal conditioning regimen for elderly patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed 1607 patients aged 50 years or older with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), acute lymphoblastic leukemia, or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) who underwent allo-HCT using fludarabine/busulfan (FB) or fludarabine/melphalan (FM) between 2007 and 2014. We compared the clinical outcomes among FB2 (busulfan at 6.4 mg/kg iv, n = 463), FB4 (busulfan at 12.8 mg/kg iv, n = 721), and FM140 (melphalan at 140 mg/m2, n = 423). The nonrelapse mortality (NRM) rates in the FB4 and FM140 groups were higher than that in the FB2 group (hazard ratio [HR], 1.63 [P < .001]; and HR, 1.71 [P < .001], respectively). Conversely, the relapse rates in the FB4 and FM140 groups were lower than that in the FB2 group (HR, .73 [P = .011]; and HR, .56 [P < .001], respectively). There were no significant differences in overall survival (OS) among the FB2, FB4, and FM140 groups. The 3-year OS in patients with high-risk AML and MDS in the FM140 group (37.0% and 60.2%) were superior to those in the FB2 group (24.4% and 45.5%) and the FB4 group (24.6% and 40.6%) (P = .016 and P = .023), whereas there were no differences in OS in the other patients among the 3 groups. In conclusion, the lower rates of relapse in the FB4 and FM140 groups were largely offset by a worse NRM. However, FM140 might be associated with better OS in patients with high-risk AML and MDS.

Abstract
The efficacy of high-dose cytarabine (HDCA) plus cyclophosphamide/total-body irradiation (CY/TBI) has been proved in cord blood transplantation (CBT) for acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), but not in bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (BMT/PBSCT). In this cohort study, we compared the prognosis of CY/TBI (N = 1244) and HDCA/CY/TBI (N = 316) regimens in BMT/PBSCT for ALL. The addition of HDCA decreased post-transplant relapse, while significantly increasing non-relapse mortality (risk ratio, 1·33), and overall survival was not improved. The positive effects of HDCA reported in CBT cannot be extrapolated to BMT/PBSCT, and HDCA may not be recommended in these procedures.

Abstract
This study investigated the efficacy of imatinib based therapy with intensified consolidation therapy in patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) to prevent early relapse. We conducted a phase II trial of imatinib-combined chemotherapy for newly diagnosed BCR-ABL-positive ALL in adults. Sixty-eight patients were included in the trial between October 2008 and December 2010. The median age was 49 years, with 28 patients >55 years of age. Sixty-five patients achieved CR (95.6%). The estimated 2-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were 62.3% and 67.4%, respectively. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) at initial CR was performed in 43 patients. Thirty-five of 39 patients <55 years and 8 of 26 patients >55 years underwent allo-SCT at first CR. The 3-year OS in patients <55 years receiving allo-SCT at first CR, patients >55 years receiving allo-SCT at first CR, patients <55 years not receiving allo-SCT at first CR, and patients >55 years not receiving allo-SCT at first CR were 80.4%, 41.1%, 32.5%, and 52.0%, respectively (P = 0.058). The three-year EFS in each group was 76.7%, 53.6%, not reached, and 26.4%, respectively (P = 0.150). A high CR rate was observed with imatinib-based chemotherapy allowing allo-SCT in a high proportion of patients, particularly those <55 years. Moreover, intensified consolidation therapy reduced early relapse rates following induction therapy and resulted in improved OS and EFS rates following allo-SCT. This trial was registered with the UMIN (000001226).

Abstract
The prognosis for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients with central nervous system (CNS) involvement (CNS+) who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) remains unclear. We retrospectively compared the outcomes of allo-SCT for patients with CNS involvement and for patients without CNS involvement (CNS-) using a database in Japan. The eligibility criteria for this study were as follows: diagnosis of ALL, aged more than 16 years, allo-SCT between 2005 and 2012, and first SCT. Data for 2582 patients including 136 CNS+ patients and 2446 CNS- patients were used for analyses. As compared with CNS- patients, CNS+ patients were younger, had worse disease status at SCT and had poorer performance status (PS) at SCT (P < 0.01). Incidence of relapse was higher in CNS+ patients (P = 0.02), and incidence of CNS relapse was also higher (P < 0.01). The probability of 3-year overall survival (OS) was better in CNS- patients (P < 0.01) by univariate analysis. However, in patients who received SCT in CR, there was no difference in the probability of OS between CNS+ and CNS- patients (P = 0.38) and CNS involvement did not have an unfavorable effect on OS by multivariate analysis. CNS+ patients who achieved CR showed OS comparable to that of CNS- patients.

Abstract
ETV6, which encodes an ETS family transcription factor, is frequently rearranged in human leukemias. We show here that a patient with acute myeloid leukemia with t(7;11)(p15;p15) gained, at the time of relapse, t(11;12)(q12.1;p13) with a split ETV6 FISH signal. Using 3'-RACE PCR analysis, we found that ETV6 was fused to LPXN at 11q12.1, which encodes leupaxin. ETV6-LPXN, an in-frame fusion between exon 4 of ETV6 and exon 2 of LPXN, did not transform the interleukin-3-dependent 32D myeloid cell line to cytokine independence; however, an enhanced proliferative response was observed when these cells were treated with G-CSF without inhibition of granulocytic differentiation. The 32D and human leukemia cell lines each transduced with ETV6-LPXN showed enhanced migration towards the chemokine CXCL12. We show here for the first time that LPXN is a fusion partner of ETV6 and present evidence indicating that ETV6-LPXN plays a crucial role in leukemia progression through enhancing the response to G-CSF and CXCL12.

Abstract
DEK-NUP214 gene fusion in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated with poor prognosis. It is most often a sole translocation and more rarely observed as complex chromosomal forms. We describe an AML case with complex karyotype abnormalities involving chromosome bands 6p23, 6q13, 7p22, and 9q34. RNA sequencing analysis revealed that exon 17 of NUP214 (9q34) was fused to exon 2 of RAC1 (7p22). We also detected that the 5'-end of intron 1 of RAC1 was fused with the antisense strand of intron 5 of COL12A1 (6q13). RT-PCR analysis confirmed the expression of DEK-NUP214, NUP214-RAC1, RAC1-COL12A1, NUP214, and RAC1. These results suggest that the 5'- and 3'-ends of NUP214 from the breakpoint in the same locus were fused to RAC1 and DEK, respectively, and the 5'-end of RAC1 was fused to COL12A1. The reading frame of NUP214 was not matched with RAC1; however, high expression of the RAC1 protein was detected by Western blotting. This study identifies the variant complex fusion genesNUP214-RAC1 and RAC1- COL12A1 in a case of AML.

Abstract
It is still a matter of debate whether detection of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) DNA in pretreatment serum has clinical implications for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. For this study, we measured EBV DNA load in pretreatment serum from 127 diffuse large B-cell lymphoma patients without any underlying immunodeficiency to evaluate its effects on clinical manifestations and prognosis. Anthracycline-based chemotherapy in combination with rituximab was given as initial therapy for 119 patients (94%). Epstein-Barr virus DNA was detected in 15 patients (12%), who were older (P = 0.005) and tended to be at a more advanced disease stage (P = 0.053). They showed significantly worse progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) than other patients (P < 0.001 each). This effect remained significant (P = 0.004 and P = 0.027, respectively) after adjustment for age, lactate dehydrogenase, performance status, stage, and extranodal sites. The status of EBV-encoded small RNA in situ hybridization was known for 123 patients; 6 of 8 positive patients (75%) and 9 of 115 negative patients (8%) had detectable EBV DNA in pretreatment serum. While patients positive for EBV-encoded small RNA had significantly worse PFS and OS than negative patients (P = 0.001 and P = 0.029, respectively), EBV DNA detection in pretreatment serum was associated with poorer PFS and OS even for the 115 patients negative for EBV-encoded small RNA (P < 0.001 each). These findings suggest that EBV DNA detection in pretreatment serum may have an adverse prognostic impact for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
