    Journal:  CD45 inhibition in myeloid leukaemia cells sensitizes cellular responsiveness to chemotherapy. (Pubmed Central) -  Jan 3, 2024   
    Bioinformatics analysis identified genes whose expression was correlated with CD45 expression such as JAK2, ACTR2, THAP3 Serglycin, and PBX-1 genes, as well as licensed drugs (alendronate, allopurinol, and balsalazide), which could be repurposed as CD45 inhibitors which effectively increases sensitivity to cytarabine and ruxolitinib at low doses. Therefore, CD45 inhibition could be explored as a potential therapeutic partner for treatment of myeloid malignancies in combination with chemotherapy such as cytarabine especially for elderly patients and those showing chemotherapy resistance.

    Journal, Adverse events:  Comparison of Class-Specific Side Effects Across Preventative Pharmacologic Therapies for Kidney Stone Disease. (Pubmed Central) -  Dec 24, 2023   
    In adjusted analyses, compared to alkali citrate, thiazides were associated with a higher odds of hypokalemia (OR=2.01, 95% CI 1.44-2.81) and hyperglycemia/diabetes (OR=1.52, 95% CI 1.26-1.83), while allopurinol was associated with a higher odds of hyperglycemia/diabetes (OR=1.34, 95% CI 1.02-1.75). These data provide evidence to support clinical guidelines that recommend periodic serum testing to assess for adverse effects from preventive pharmacologic therapy.

    Incidence of Laboratory Tumor Lysis Syndrome in CAR T-Cell Recipients () -  Dec 11, 2023 - Abstract #TCTASTCTCIBMTR2024TCT_ASTCT_CIBMTR_1305;    
    Out of the two patients with protocol defined TLS, only one had possible TLS with stage 3 AKI, a SCr peak at 1.7 mg/dL from a baseline of 0.5 mg/dL, with extensive disease (mediastinal mass >10 cm) and a complicated course. A risk-stratified approach may be warranted to identify high risk patients with certain characteristics (i.e., bulky tumor with progressive disease) who would benefit from prophylactic allopurinol for TLS prevention.

    Journal, Adverse drug reaction:  Cutaneous adverse drug reactions. (Pubmed Central) -  Nov 19, 2023   
    All drugs can cause cutaneous ADRs, the most commonly implicated being antibiotics (especially aminopenicillins and sulfonamides), anticonvulsants, allopurinol, antineoplastic drugs, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and iodinated contrast media...To determine the origin of a rash, a logical approach based on clinical characteristics, chronologic factors and elimination of differential diagnosis (especially infectious etiologies) is required, completed with a literature search. Reporting to pharmacovigilance system is therefore essential both to analyze drug causality at individual level, and to contribute to knowledge of the drug at population level, especially for serious cutaneous ADRs or in cases involving newly marketed drugs.

    Consulting rheumatologists recommended treatment with anakinra, steroids, colchicine, and allopurinol, but deferred initiation of uricase enzymes. As physiatrists, patient advocacy is crucial in the management of complex patient diagnoses and systems such as interdisciplinary teams, hospitals, and insurance companies.

    56 pts received allopurinol =72 hours prior to starting ven, 21 received =2L of IV fluid per day starting at least the day prior to ven, and 56 had TLS labs measured every 8-12 hours during the first 3 days following ven initiation...We defined significant TLS as pts who required hospitalization (if started treatment outpatient) or ICU transfer, received rasburicase, developed AKI, or had treatment held due to TLS...Of the pts who developed significant TLS, a majority had spontaneous TLS; only 5 pts had significant TLS occur after starting ven. We also found that the Howard criteria for TLS better identify pts who will have adverse outcomes from TLS and may be a more clinically meaningful set of criteria to use in future studies.

    Tumor Lysis Syndrome in Patients with AML Initiated on Venetoclax-Based Treatment without a Dose Ramp-up (SDCC - Halls G-H) -  Nov 3, 2023 - Abstract #ASH2023ASH_4678;    
    Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of pts =18 years of age with newly diagnosed or relapsed/refractory AML treated with a standard dose hypomethylating agent (HMA), either azacitidine or decitabine, and VEN without a dose ramp-up (initiated at 400mg daily or 100mg daily if on concomitant voriconazole or posaconazole) at Thomas Jefferson University Hospital from January 1, 2018- August 1, 2021...Sixty-one pts (68%) were receiving allopurinol prophylaxis at the time of HMA-VEN administration...Fifteen pts (17%) were on medications, such as thiazide diuretics, aspirin, or levodopa, that can increase the risk of TLS at the time of treatment...Starting pts with AML on full dose VEN on day 1, regardless of white blood cell count, renal function, or concomitant medications, appears safe and could be implemented in clinical practice and clinical trials moving forward. This would simplify dosing for pts, pharmacists, and providers and allow for easier initiation of therapy.

    Journal:  Comparative studies of xanthine oxidase inhibitors viz allopurinol and febuxostat against induced hyperuricemia in poultry model. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 26, 2023   
    Further haematological, biochemical, patho-morphological and ultrastructural studies using transmission electron microscopy were carried out to evaluate the pathology and thus, ameliorative effect of allopurinol and febuxostat. The findings proved that allopurinol and febuxostat carries definite ameliorative potential as an anti-hyperuricemic and anti-gout potential in poultry, which was better expressed by febuxostat as compared to allopurinol.

    Review, Journal:  Emerging Urate-Lowering Drugs and Pharmacologic Treatment Strategies for Gout: A Narrative Review. (Pubmed Central) -  Oct 11, 2023   
    Multiple dose titrations commonly needed to optimize first-line allopurinol ULT monotherapy, and substantial potential toxicities and other limitations of approved, marketed oral monotherapy ULT drugs, promote hyperuricemia undertreatment...Evolving ULT approaches include administering selected gut anaerobic purine degrading bacteria (PDB), modulating intestinal urate transport, and employing liver-targeted xanthine oxidoreductase mRNA knockdown. Last, emerging measures to decrease the immunogenicity of systemically administered recombinant uricases should simplify treatment regimens and further improve outcomes in managing the most severe gout phenotypes.

    Similarly, the phthalimides showed a low degree of erythrocyte hemolysis (<3%). Our data demonstrate that the new glycoconjugate triazole-phthalimides have potential to treat hyperuricemia and its secondary complications, such as gouty arthritis, with a low to non-significant rate of erythrocytes hemolysis, genotoxicity and mutagenicity making these molecules strong candidates as pharmaceutical agents for treatment requiring uric-acid-lowering therapy.
