Evaluation of multi-antigen targeting ADCC strategies in pediatric BCP-ALL. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
CD24 therefore emerged as an effective target in BCP-ALL, and the combination of CD24 and CD123 as a potential effective double-targeting strategy. The combination of different recognition modalities (eg, a CAR and CD16) should be tested to determine whether it provides synergistic cytotoxic activity in triple targeting.

Impact of TP53 mutations and their variant allele frequency in adults with newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia. (PubMed, Blood)
Patients ≥60 years with Ph-negative B-cell ALL and TP53 VAF ≥45% had poor outcomes, with 4-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) of 28%, driven primarily by increased relapse risk, even among patients treated with frontline inotuzumab ozogamicin (INO) and/or blinatumomab. TP53 persistence at remission occurred in 44% of tested patients and was associated with increased ALL relapse risk. These results demonstrate that TP53 VAF is prognostic in older patients with Ph-negative B-cell ALL; high VAF may increase relapse risk but is not independently associated with survival in younger patients.

Blinatumomab-Related Lineage Switch of KMT2A/AFF1-Rearranged B-Lymphoblastic Leukemia to B/Myeloid Mixed-Phenotype Acute Leukemia and Myeloid Sarcoma Causing Spinal Cord Compression. (PubMed, Case Rep Hematol)
It highlights an unusual and serious pattern of relapse in an extramedullary site following blinatumomab therapy. Clinicians should remain vigilant for signs of lineage switch and extramedullary disease during treatment, particularly in patients with KMT2A-rearranged B-ALL, and consider imaging or biopsy when new neurologic or systemic symptoms arise.

"Upfront Use of Blinatumomab in Adolescents and Adults With Philadelphia Chromosome: Negative B-cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Proportional Meta-Analysis". (PubMed, Clin Lymphoma Myeloma Leuk)
Variations in OS appear driven by patient heterogeneity and concurrent chemotherapy intensity rather than blinatumomab timing. Future studies should refine its integration within targeted and genomically defined strategies, particularly for high-risk subsets such as Ph-like and KMT2A-rearranged B-ALL.

Pediatric T-Lymphoblastic Leukemia With Aberrant B-Cell Marker Expression: A Potential Role for Targeted Therapy. (PubMed, EJHaem)
While the patient failed high-risk T-LBLL induction therapy, blinatumomab followed by decitabine and venetoclax induced a morphologic remission. This case illustrated the importance of integrating MFC analysis with NGS data to provide individualized patient treatment. The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.

The emerging role of immunotherapy in improving outcomes in Down syndrome - associated acute lymphoblastic leukemia: an insightful review. (PubMed, Leuk Lymphoma)
Recent advances in immunotherapy, including blinatumomab, inotuzumab ozogamicin, and CD19-directed CAR T-cell therapy, have shown significant efficacy and favorable tolerability in pediatric and adult DS-ALL. Emerging approaches incorporating early immunotherapy, MRD-guided treatment, and chemotherapy-free regimens may improve survival and quality of life. Prospective DS-specific trials are essential to optimize therapy and close the outcome gap in this high-risk population.
