Quality and financial model in public universities

2001

Assuming that a unique model of university quality doesn’t exist, this article considers different models with their advantages and disadvantages. In this article we manifest the implications of each quality model with its sources of funding, paying special attention to the most recent reports from European, Spanish and Catalan universities about what would be the best funding for the university model they defend.

Bone marrowVEGFCexpression is associated with multilineage dysplasia and several prognostic markers in adult acute myeloid leukemia, but not with sur…

2018

Vascular endothelial growth factor C (VEGFC) stimulates leukemia cell proliferation and survival, and promotes angiogenesis. We studied VEGFC expression in bone marrow samples from 353 adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients and its relationship with several clinical, cytogenetic, and molecular variables. We also studied the expression of 84 genes involved in VEGF signaling in 24 patients. We found that VEGFC expression was higher in AML patients with myelodysplasia-related changes (AML-MRC) than in patients with non-AML-MRC. We also found an association between VEGFC expression and the patient cytogenetic risk group, with those with a worse prognosis having higher VEGFC expression leve…

Acute myeloid leukemia with NPM1 mutation and favorable European LeukemiaNet category: outcome after preemptive intervention based on measurable resi…

2020

In the European LeukemiaNet favourable risk category, allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) is not indicated in first complete remission for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) with NPM1 mutations (ELNfav NPM1 AML), although a proportion of these patients will relapse. Given the prognostic importance of measurable residual disease (MRD), CETLAM-12 considered a pre-emptive intervention in patients with molecular failure (MF). We analyzed 110 ELNfav NPM1 AML patients achieving complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy. Two-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), overall survival (OS) and leukaemia-free survival (LFS) were 17%, 81 center dot 5% an…

Centre characteristics and procedure-related factors have an impact on outcomes of allogeneic transplantation for patients with CLL: a retrospective …

2017

Abstract Introduction:Even in the era of novel targeted therapies for the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients, such as BTK, PI3K and BCL2 inhibitors, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (alloHCT) will remain an important treatment option for a subset of patients with very high risk CLL. The current study focused on the impact of center and procedure-related factors on outcomes after alloHCT, taking into account the impact of patient- and disease-related risk factors. Patients and Methods:Data of 684 CLL patients who received a first alloHCT between 2000 and 2011 were analyzed. Their data were collected as part of the EBMT CLL Data Quality Initiative. Out…

Role of MTHFR (677, 1298) haplotype in the risk of developing secondary leukemia after treatment of breast cancer and hematological malignancies

2007

Therapy-related myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia (t-MDS/AML) is a malignancy occurring after exposure to chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Polymorphisms involved in chemotherapy/radiotherapy response genes could be related to an increased risk of developing this neoplasia. We have studied 11 polymorphisms in genes of drug detoxification pathways (NQO1, glutathione S-transferase pi) and DNA repair xeroderma pigmentosum, complementation group (3) (XPC(3), X-ray repair cross complementing protein (1)), Nijmegen breakage syndrome (1), excision repair cross-complementing rodent repair deficiency, complementation group (5) and X-ray repair cross complementing protein (3) and in the methy…

Clinical significance of complex karyotype at diagnosis in pediatric and adult patients with de novo acute promyelocytic leukemia treated with ATRA a…

2019

Although additional cytogenetic abnormalities (ACA) do not affect the prognosis of patients with t(15;17) acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), the role of a complex karyotype (CK) is yet to be clarified. We aimed to investigate the relationship of CK with relapse incidence in 1559 consecutive APL patients enrolled in three consecutive trials. Treatment consisted of AIDA induction followed by risk-adapted consolidation. A CK (CK) was defined as the presence of ≥2 ACA, and a very CK (CK+) as ≥3 ACA. Eighty-nine patients (8%) had a CK, of whom 41 (4%) had CK+. The 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) in patients with CK was 18%, and 12% in those with <2 ACA (p=.09). Among patients wi…

2009

Background The prevalence of and risk factors for central nervous system recurrence in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia are not well established and remain a controversial matter. Design and Methods Between 1996 and 2005, 739 patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia enrolled in two consecutive trials (PETHEMA LPA96 and LPA99) received induction therapy-with all-trans retinoic acid and idarubicin. Consolidation therapy comprised three courses of anthracycline monochemotherapy (LPA96), with all-trans retinoic acid and reinforced doses of idarubicin in patients with an intermediate or high risk of relapse (LPA99). Central nervous system prophylaxis was not given. Re…

Long-term outcome of older patients with newly diagnosed de novo acute promyelocytic leukemia treated with ATRA plus anthracycline-based therapy

2018

Treatment outcome in older patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) is lower compared with younger patients, mainly because of a higher induction death rate and postremission non-relapse mortality (NRM). This prompted us to design a risk-and age-adapted protocol (Programa Espanol de Tratamientos en Hematologia (PETHEMA)/HOVON LPA2005), with dose reduction of consolidation chemotherapy. Patients aged >= 60 years reported to the PETHEMA registry and were treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) plus anthracycline-based regimens according to three consecutive PETHEMA trials that were included. We compared the long-term outcomes of the LPA2005 trial with the preceding PETHEMA tria…

2018

Abstract Introduction Patients diagnosed with AML with NPM1mutation (NPM1mut AML) included in the European LeukemiaNet favorable genetic risk category (ELNfav, i.e., without FLT3-ITD or with a low allelic burden FLT3-ITD comutation [FLT3-ITD/FLT3wt <0.5; FLT3-ITDLOW]) do not benefit from an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in first complete remission (CR1). However, a significant proportion of these patients fail to frontline chemotherapy and require salvage therapy. Persistence or detection of MRD after post-CR treatment is associated with a high relapse risk and worse prognosis. With this background, the cooperative group CETLAM proposed an early therapeutic intervention …

Triple Negative Myelofibrosis and Myelodysplastic Syndrome with Fibrosis: Clinico-Biological Characterization and Correlation with Gene Mutations

2018

Abstract Introduction: Triple negative primary myelofibrosis (TN-PMF) and myelodysplastic syndromes with fibrosis (F-MDS) are rare entities, often difficult to distinguish each other. Currently, no specific molecular markers allowing a precise differential diagnosis are available. In this sense, next generation techniques (NGS) might be useful to distinguish between both entities and to refine prognosis. Methods: Thirty-nine patients with TN-PMF (n=16) or F-MDS (n=23) were analyzed, Targeted NGS was performed in 28 cases (10 TN-PMF and 18 F-MDS) using the Sophia Genetics Myeloid Tumor Solution Panel including the following genes: ABL1, ASXL1, BRAF, CALR, CBL,CEBPA, CSF3R,CSNK1A1,DNMT3A, ETV…
