The key risk factors for the development of PRES identified in our study included hypertension, fluid imbalance, electrolyte abnormalities, baseline organ dysfunction, a high tumor burden, and the presence of pre-existing CNS insults during chemotherapy, such as CNS infection. Patients with these risk factors appear to have a greater risk of developing PRES and should be monitored closely during treatment.

Further evaluation earlier in the disease course and in combination is warranted.

Journal: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in very elderly patients over 80 years old: Incorporating consolidative radiation therapy into management decisions. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 9, 2017 Among advanced-stage patients with bulky disease (n = 35), consolidative RT to sites of bulky disease may have improved local control (3-year local control, 100% vs 60.3%, P = .160). Among patients aged 80 years or older who have with ES DLBCL, 3 to 4 cycles of chemotherapy followed by RT is at least equivalent in efficacy to chemotherapy alone and is associated with lower levels of toxicity, which suggests that it may be a better choice for therapy when trying to balance treatment efficacy and tolerability.

Journal: Circulating myeloid-derived suppressor cells increase in patients undergoing neo-adjuvant chemotherapy for breast cancer. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 8, 2017 There was no significant rise in G-MDSC from draw 1 to 3 in African American patients, and at draw 3 G-MDSC levels were significantly lower in African Americans versus Caucasians (p < 0.05). It was concluded that G-MDSC% increased during doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide therapy, but did not significantly differ between patients based on pathologic complete response.

Journal: Adult T-Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma: Rarely Encountered in the United States. (Pubmed Central) - Nov 5, 2017 We present 10 patients with acute and lymphomatous subtypes of ATLL treated with distinct induction regimens, including CHOP (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin, vincristine [Oncovin], prednisone or prednisolone), interferon/zidovudine, and VCAP-AMP-VECP (vincristine, cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, prednisone; doxorubicin, ranimustine, prednisone; vindesine, etoposide, carboplatin, prednisone)...Three patients underwent consolidation with allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the first CR. The median overall survival was 51 months for the entire group and 84 months for the patients who had undergone ASCT versus 34 months for the non-ASCT patients.

(Pubmed Central) - Nov 1, 2017 In the safety population (100 R-CHOP and 101 VR-CHOP patients), grade ≥ 3 adverse events included neutropenia (53% v 49%), thrombocytopenia (13% v 29%), anemia (7% v 15%), leukopenia (26% v 25%), and neuropathy (1% v 5%). Conclusion Outcomes for newly diagnosed, prospectively enrolled patients with non-GCB DLBCL were more favorable than expected with R-CHOP and were not significantly improved by adding bortezomib.
