Nipocalimab and certolizumab combination therapy in participants with active rheumatoid arthritis despite prior treatment with advanced therapies: results from the phase 2a DAISY-RA study. (PubMed, RMD Open)
Combination therapy of nipocalimab with certolizumab showed a similar outcome in the primary endpoint and secondary endpoints compared with certolizumab monotherapy in participants with active RA.

Accelerated synthesis of immunomodulatory imide drugs and their derivatives via continuous flow chemistry. (PubMed, Commun Chem)
Herein, we report the synthesis of lenalidomide (63% overall yield) and pomalidomide (62% overall yield) using an integrated continuous flow platform with residence times of 42 minutes and 52 minutes, respectively. The products are obtained without the need for column chromatography, and both immunomodulatory imide drugs (IMiDs) can be accessed from a common intermediate through our developed route. Furthermore, we explore the synthesis of CRBN ligand-linkers under continuous flow, affording a series of derivatives with diverse properties in yields exceeding 90%.

Neutrophil extracellular trap-related genes in PTCL: identification, prognosis and drug interaction prediction via bioinformatics-machine learning. (PubMed, Hematology)
Potential therapeutic agents (e.g. capivasertib, lenalidomide) were predicted, and lenalidomide may represent a feasible initial treatment option for PTCL, with an objective response rate (ORR) of 40.0% and a maximum survival duration exceeding 50 months. NET-RGs play crucial roles in diagnosis, prognosis, and TME regulation, and lenalidomide, a putative TNF-targeting agent, may represent a feasible initial treatment option in PTCL.

CSF-1R inhibition and lenalidomide synergize to promote myeloma control after autologous stem cell transplantation. (PubMed, Blood)
CSF-1R blockade depleted these immunosuppressive macrophages, which correlated with decreased expression of inhibitory receptors and enhanced expression of activation markers in Tphex. Given the FDA approval of axatilimab for chronic GVHD, combining CSF-1R blockade with lenalidomide maintenance represents a readily testable strategy to improve progression-free survival after ASCT.

A comprehensive analysis of common cytogenetic abnormalities in multiple myeloma: from basic research to clinical applications. (PubMed, Pathology)
Among patients receiving bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRd) induction therapy, those with cytogenetic abnormalities showed significantly lower deep response rates (complete response + very good partial response). Furthermore, RB1 deletion or D13S319 deletion combined with other high-risk indicators further shortened PFS. These findings indicate that integrating expanded cytogenetic markers optimises MM risk stratification and provides a basis for individualised treatment strategies.

Fc-gamma receptors type3A (rs396991) genotyping for predicting infliximab efficacy and immunogenicity in ulcerative colitis: An observational study of Iraqi cohort. (PubMed, Medicine (Baltimore))
The FCGR3A rs396991 CC genotype is significantly associated with improved infliximab pharmacokinetics and reduced immunogenicity in UC patients. These findings highlight the potential of FCGR3A genotyping to guide personalized therapeutic strategies and optimize clinical outcomes in UC.
