Deep learning predicts IDH1 mutation status in acute myeloid leukemia from bone marrow smears

Abstract Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with IDH1 mutations is amenable to targeted therapy, highlighting the need for reliable identification. We developed an attention-based multiple-instance learning model to predict IDH1 mutation status using bone marrow smear whole-slide image...

Validation of the International Working Group 2023 response criteria for higher risk myelodysplastic syndromes/neoplasms using the International Consortium for Myelodysplastic Syndromes VALIDATE database and a randomized phase III trial

Response assessment criteria in patients with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes/neoplasms (HR-MDS) have been updated in the 2023 International Working Group (IWG) criteria. However, validation of these criteria has been limited to date. We analyzed overall survival (OS) by be...

Two cases of an imatinib-sensitive PRKG2::PDGFRA-positive chronic myeloid neoplasm with basophilia

The clinical and morphological phenotype of myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with tyrosine kinase (TK) gene fusions (MLN-TK) is influenced by both the TK and the partner gene [ 1 ]. Here, we report on two patients with an initial diagnosis of a chronic myeloid neoplasm with prominent b...

Impact of Response to Hypomethylating Agent‐Based Therapy on Survival Outcomes in the Context of Baseline Clinical‐Molecular Risk and Transplant Status in Patients With Higher‐Risk Myelodysplastic Syndromes/Neoplasms: An analysis From the International Consortium for MDS (icMDS)

Baseline IPSS-M risk, response to hypomethylating agent (HMA) therapy, and receipt of allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-HCT) have all been individually shown to impact overall survival (OS) in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). However, the prognostic impact of re...
