Objective To evaluate the cytogenetic, molecular responses and safety of generic imatinib in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) in 1-year at different stages. Methods From January 2014 to November 2014, 50 CML-CP patients received oral generic imatinib 400 mg/d. The cytogenetic examinations, bcr-abl transcript levels and safety were monitored after 3, 6, 9 and 12 months respectively. Results 46 of 50 patients insisted on oral generic imatinib and followed up 1 year. At 3-month, 52.0 % (26/50) patients reached the complete hematologic responses (CHR) rate, and patients at least achieved minor cytogenetic response (mCyR) and bcr-ablIS≤10 % were 84.0 % (42/50) and 42.0 % (21/50). At 6-month, patients at least achieved part cytogenetic response (PCyR) and bcr-ablIS≤10 %were 73.5 % (36/49) and 59.2 % (29/49). At 12-month, patients achieved complete cytogenetic response (CCyR), bcr-ablIS≤1 % and bcr-ablIS≤0.1 % were 60.9 % (28/46), 63.1 % (29/46) and 45.7 % (21/46). The grade 3 leukopenia, thrombocytopenia and anemia rates were 34 % (17/50), 40 % (20/50) and 30 % (15/50), respectively. No grade 4 hematologic toxicity occurred. The common non-hematologic toxicities included edema [84 % (42/50)], nausea [46 % (40/50)], muscle pain [20 % (10/50)], rash [16 % (8/50)], and impaired liver function [8 % (4/50)]. Conclusion Generic imatinib has a favorable effect in treatment of patients with CML-CP, and without serious adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the prognostic significance of serum cystatin C in multiple myeloma (MM).Methods 160 cases of newly diagnosed MM patients with average age of 61.38 years old.Determine the levels of serum cystatin C,serum creatinine,β 2-microglobulin,lactate dehydrogenase and hemoglobin before the treatment; median follow-up of 38 months,observe the relationship between serum cystatin C with overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS).Results Median serum cystatin C level in 160 MM patients was higher than that in the 80 healthy controls [(0.96 ± 0.32) mg/L vs (0.71 ± 0.16) mg/L,P ＜ 0.000].All the patients in ISS stage were divided into 3 stages.Median serum cystatin C levels significantly increased in higher ISS stages [stage Ⅰ (0.70±0.13) mg/L,stage Ⅱ (0.87±0.16) mg/L,stage Ⅲ(1.23±0.33) mg/L (P ＜ 0.05)],serum cystatin C level was positively correlated with levels of serum creatinine (r =0.669,P ＜ 0.000),β2-microglobulin (r =0.672,P ＜ 0.000).lactate dehydrogenase (r =0.521,P ＜ 0.000),and negatively correlated with hemoglobin levels (r =-0.436,P ＜ 0.000).Using ROC analysis,patients with serum cystatin C levels ＞ 0.95 mg/L had significantly shorter EFS and OS patients with serum cystatin C levels ≤0.95 mg/L (median EFS:30 vs 57 months,P ＜ 0.05; median OS:43 vs 68 months,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Serum cystain C is not only a sensitive marker of kidney damage,but also reflects tumor burden and delivers prognostic information in MM.

A 47-year-old man presented with recurrent oral ulcerations for more than 1 year and generalized vesicles for 9 months.Physical examination revealed multiple oral ulcers,patchy labial erosions with yellow or dark brown crusts,maceration and blanching of the angle of mouth resulting in difficulty in mouth opening.Cinnamomeous crusts were seen on the nasal limen,palpebral margin and coronary sulcus of penis,with pale red macules after decrustation.Diffuse erythematous patches and bullae were present on the trunk and extremities.The walls of bullae tightly clung to the skin,and some bullae were ruptured,leaving an erythematous and moist surface and giving an erythema multiforme-like appearance; some bullae were turbid and covered with adherent drugcontaining white crusts or black crusts.Nikolsky's sign was negative.Shrinking,edematous dark-red patches were seen in periungual regions of all the fingers and toes.Histologic biopsy and direct immunofluorescence examination of bullous lesions confirmed a diagnosis of paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP).Histopathological and immunohistochemical findings from the mediastinal tumor were consistent with Castleman's disease (hyalinevascular type) with proliferation of follicular dendritic cells.Laboratory examination revealed a decrease in serum complement C3 and the presence of antinuclear,anti-nucleosome and anti-dsDNA antibodies.The final diagnosis included Castleman's disease,PNP and systemic lupus erythematosus.After 2 months of treatment with low-dose prednisone and azathioprine,skin lesions completely regressed.Then,the dose of prednisone and azathioprine was tapered.Six months later,the patient himself suddenly withdrew prednisone and azathioprine,and began to take traditional Chinese medicine; thereafter,the lesions developed into toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN),and the patient died finally.This case demonstrates that immunosuppressive therapy should be maintained for a long period of time in patients with Castleman's disease after tumor removal,otherwise,skin lesions may recur or get worse.

Objective To evaluate the effect of As2O3 combined with paclitaxel(PTX)on the treatment of lung cancer.Methods The anti-proliferation efficiency of As2 O3 combined with PTX was evaluated by MTT assay.Tumor spheroids were used to evaluate anti-tumor ability of As2 O3 combined with PTX.Transmission electron microscope (TEM)were used to observe the apoptosis morphous.A549 cell were xenografted in mice to establish the animal model,and the nude mices were devided into four groups,saline group,As2 O3 group,PTX group and As2 O3 +PTX group.The animal model were used to evaluate the effect of anti-tumor.The tumor size of every group were measured.HE was used to observe the apoptosis of cancer cells. Results The cell inhibition rate of A549 cell were(3.35 ±0.21)%,(47.55 ±2.25)%,(64.64 ±3.35)%and(84.58 ±3.76)%after treatment with saline,As2O3,PTX and As2O3combined with PTX after 48h respectively(P<0.01).The early apoptosis rate of cancer cells were 0.26%,9.7%, 17.8% and 42.5% for saline group,As2 O3 group,PTX and As2 O3 +PTX group respectively(P<0.01 ).The final tumor spheroid volumes in saline group increased 1.36 times after 7 days.The final tumor spheroid volumes reduced to(77.35 ±2.31)%,(61.68 ±2.44)% and(44.85 ±3.34)% in As2O3,PTX and As2O3 combined with PTX group respectively(P<0.01).The inhibition of lung cancer in vitro demonstrated the inhibition rate of tumor growth compared with saline group were(22.4 ±4.5)%,(39.5 ±6.2)% and(69.5 ±7.3)% for As2O3,PTX and As2O3 +PTX,respectively(P<0.01 ).Conclusion As2 O3 combined with PTX can effectively inhibit the proliferation of A549 cells and ectopic tumor growth in nude mice and it may be a potentially effective treatment for lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the staging significance of PET-CT in multiple myeloma,and to observe the relationship between baseline PET-CT and clinical parameters in multiple myeloma.Methods 78 cases newly diagnosed MM patients were selected from the Department of Hematology,the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region people's Hospital from March 2007 to February 2014,with average age 61.24 years old.The levels of hemoglobin,albumin,beta 2 microglobulin and lactate dehydrogenase were detected before the treatment.PET-CT was performed to measure SUVmax in the spine,pelvis and rib with an average of the SUVmax in each case,and the number of FDG-avid focal lesions in every patient was counted.The difference of the SUVmax or FLS in different stages and the relationship between SUVmax or FLS and clinical parameters in MM were observed.Results All the patients were divided into 3 stages depending on ISS staging.The average SUV values in 10 cases of stage Ⅰ,45 cases of stage Ⅱ and 23 cases of stage Ⅲ were 1.84±0.28,3.74±0.42 and 6.02±0.93,respectively,and SUV values was significantly different among different groups (P ＜ 0.05).SUV values were positively correlated with levels of beta 2 microglobulin (r =0.862,P ＜ 0.001) and lactate dehydrogenase (r =0.592,P ＜ 0.001),and negatively correlated with albumin (r =-0.762,P ＜ 0.001) and hemoglobin levels (r =-0.685,P ＜ 0.001).The number of lesions had a correlation with low hemoglobin,high lactate dehydrogenase and high beta 2 microglobulin (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion PET-CT can reflect tumor burden to some extent,and has the guiding significance for MM stage,which contributes to developing individualized treatment programs.

Objective To investigate the role of PET-CT in evaluating the response to the treatment in patients with multiple myeloma.Methods 55 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients were collected.Patients were provided with 3 CTD chemotherapy,complete blood examination before and after treatment,parallel PET-CT,and measuring the spine,pelvis,rib SUVmax,each with an average of the SUVmax.The curative effect observated in SUV changes and disease were evaluated.Results In 24 patients after treatment,CR,SUV values were significantly decreased [(3.82±0.83) vs (2.05±0.49),t=9.045,P ＜ 0.001].11 cases of VGPR,SUV values were decreased [(4.77±1.13) vs (3.29±0.49),t =3.998,P =0.001].9 cases of PR,SUV values were slightly decreased [(5.36±0.47) vs (4.97±0.40),t =1.886,P ＞ 0.05],in 8 cases of SD,the SUV values had no obvious change [(6.40±0.96) vs (5.63±0.69),t =1.819,P ＞ 0.05],in 3 cases of disease progression we had higher SUV values from the previous [(6.57±0.72) vs (7.53±4.69),t =-0.353,P ＞ 0.05].CR of 24 cases were followed up for 12 months,SUV values were still high in patients after treatment of the short progression-free survival (PFS) (Some patients only lasted 4 months).Conclusion PET-CT has important value in the evaluation of therapeutic effect of multiple myeloma,it helps to determine the early clinical efficacy,and to plan individualized treatment.
