In this week's episode we'll learn how cytomegalovirus infection early in life depletes preleukemic cells in a mouse model of B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. After that we'll discuss new research, where GVHD targets organoid-forming bile duct stem cells in a TGF-beta-dependent manner. Conversely, a TGF-beta inhibitor protects these stem cells against GVHD and mitigates biliary dysfunction. Finally, we'll hear about the seven-year outcomes for venetoclax-ibrutinib in relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. In addition to long-term survival benefits, researchers report durable treatment-free remissions and effective retreatment in patients with MRD-negative complete responses.
