Myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with fibroblast growth factor receptor 1 rearrangements (MLN- We assigned eligible patients to receive oral pemigatinib 13.5 mg once daily (2 weeks on followed by 1 week off or continuously). End points included complete response rate (primary) and complete cytogenetic response rate. Responses were assessed locally by investigators per protocol-defined criteria and were retrospectively adjudicated by a central review committee using criteria defined by the committee. Of 47 treated patients (safety population), 45 had confirmed In our study, pemigatinib manifested near complete efficacy in chronic-phase patients with MLN- Show less

The eosinophilias encompass a broad range of non-hematologic (secondary or reactive) and hematologic (primary or clonal) disorders with the potential for end-organ damage. Hypereosinophilia (HE) has generally been defined as a peripheral blood eosinophil count greater than 1.5 × 10 Disease prognosis relies on identifying the subtype of eosinophilia. After evaluation of secondary causes of eosinophilia, the 2022 World Health Organization and International Consensus Classification endorse a semi-molecular classification scheme of disease subtypes. This includes the major category "myeloid/lymphoid neoplasms with eosinophilia and tyrosine kinase gene fusions" (MLN-eo-TK), and the MPN subtype, "chronic eosinophilic leukemia" (CEL). Lymphocyte-variant HE is an aberrant T-cell clone-driven reactive eosinophila, and idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (HES) is a diagnosis of exclusion. The goal of therapy is to mitigate eosinophil-mediated organ damage. For patients with milder forms of eosinophilia (e.g., <1.5 × 10 Show less
