Meta-Analysis
Imatinib, the first tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) for the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), improves overall survival (OS), but the introduction of newer TKIs requires the definition of the optimal first-line TKI for newly diagnosed Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) chronic-phase (CP) CML. This systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) compares the efficacy and safety of imatinib vs second-generation (dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib) and third-generation TKIs (ponatinib) in adults with newly diagnosed Ph+ CP CML, concentrating on OS, progression-free survival (PFS), and hematological and nonhematological adverse events. The quality of the evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) method. Seven RCTs published between 1990 and 2019 (involving 3262 participants) satisfied the eligibility criteria. Two RCTs (imatinib vs nilotinib and imatinib vs dasatinib) found no difference in 5-year OS or PFS. Second- and third-generation TKIs improved 3-month major molecular responses (relative risk [RR], 4.28; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.20-8.32) and other efficacy outcomes, decreased accelerated/blastic-phase transformations (RR, 0.44; 95% CI, 0.26-0.74), but were associated with more cases of thrombocytopenia (RR, 1.57; 95% CI, 1.20-2.05), cardiovascular events (RR, 2.54; 95% CI, 1.49-4.33), and pancreatic (RR, 2.29; 95% CI, 1.32-3.96) and hepatic effects (RR, 3.51; 95% CI 1.55-7.92). GRADE showed that the certainty of the evidence ranged from high to moderate. This study shows that, in comparison with imatinib, second- and third-generation TKIs improve clinical responses, but the safer toxicity profile of imatinib may make it a better option for patients with comorbidities.

Review
Relapse after stem cell transplantation for Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) remains a significant challenge. In this systematic review, we compare survival outcomes of second-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) nilotinib and dasatinib with first-generation TKI imatinib when these agents are used after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in Ph+ ALL. In addition, we review the literature on TKI use to prevent relapse in patients who proceed to allo-HSCT beyond first complete response (>CR1). We performed database searches (inception to January 2018) using PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Embase. After exclusions, 17 articles were included in this analysis. Imatinib was used post-transplant either prophylactically or preemptively in 12 studies, 7 prospective studies and 5 retrospective studies. Overall survival (OS) for most prospective studies at 1.5 to 3 and 5 years ranged between 62% to 92% and 74.5% to 86.7%. Disease-free survival at 1.5 to 5 years was 60.4% to 92%. Additionally, imatinib failed to show survival benefit in patients who were >CR1 at the time of allo-HSCT. The cumulative OS for most retrospective studies using imatinib at 1 to 2 and 3 to 5 years was 42% to 100% and 33% to 40% respectively. Event-free survival at 1 to 2 and 3 to 5 years was 33.3% to 67% and 20% to 31% respectively. Dasatinib was used as maintenance treatment in 3 retrospective studies (n = 34). The OS for patients with Ph+ ALL using dasatinib as maintenance regimen after allo-HSCT at 1.4 to 3 years was 87% to 100% and disease-free survival at 1.4 to 3 years was 89% to 100%. Ninety-three percent of patients with minimal residual disease (MRD) positive status after allo-HSCT became MRD negative. Three prospective studies used nilotinib. In 2 studies where investigators studied patients with advanced chronic myeloid leukemia and Ph+ ALL, the cumulative OS and event-free survival at 7.5 months to 2 years were 69% to 84% and 56% to 84%, respectively. In the third study (n = 5) in patients with Ph+ ALL, nilotinib use resulted in OS at 5 years of 60%. Our review showed that use of TKIs (all generations) after allo-HSCT for patients in CR1 improved OS when given as a prophylactic or preemptive regimen. Limited data suggest that second-generation TKIs (ie, dasatinib) have a better OS, especially in patients with MRD-positive status. Imatinib did not improve OS in patients who were >CR1 at the time of allo-HSCT; for this population, no data were available with newer generation TKIs. The evaluation of survival benefit with newer generation TKIs and their efficacy in patients in >CR1 needs further study in large randomized clinical trials.

Through a process termed , platelets cause thrombi to shrink and become more stable. After platelets are activated via inside-out signaling, glycoprotein αIIbβIII binds to fibrinogen and initiates a cascade of intracellular signaling that ends in actin remodeling, which causes the platelet to change its shape. Clot retraction is also important for wound healing. Although the detailed molecular biology of clot retraction is only partially understood, various substances and physiological conditions modulate clot retraction. In this review, we describe some of the current literature pertaining to clot retraction modulators. In addition, we discuss compounds from , , and that diminish clot retraction and have numerous other health benefits. Caffeic acid and diindolylmethane, both common in plants and vegetables, likewise reduce clot retraction, as do all-trans retinoic acid (a vitamin A derivative), two MAP4K inhibitors, and the chemotherapeutic drug Dasatinib. Conversely, the endogenous anticoagulant Protein S (PS) and the matricellular protein secreted modular calcium-binding protein 1 (SMOC1) both enhance clot retraction. Most studies aiming to identify mechanisms of clot retraction modulators have focused on the increased phosphorylation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein and inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate receptor I and the decreased phosphorylation of various phospholipases (e.g., phospholipase A2 (PLA) and phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase Cγ2 (PLCγ), c-Jun N-terminal kinase, and (PI3Ks). One study focused on the decreased phosphorylation of Sarcoma Family Kinases (SFK), and others have focused on increased cAMP levels and the downregulation of inflammatory markers such as thromboxanes, including thromboxane A2 (TXA) and thromboxane B2 (TXB); prostaglandin A2 (PGE2); reactive oxygen species (ROS); and cyclooxygenase (COX) enzyme activity. Additionally, pregnancy, fibrinolysis, and the autoimmune condition systemic lupus erythematosus all seem to affect, or at least have some relation with, clot retraction. All the clot retraction modulators need in-depth study to explain these effects.

To compare the efficacy and safety of treatments for patients with recurrent high-grade gliomas. Electronic databases including Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) related to high-grade gliomas. The inclusion of qualified literature and extraction of data were conducted by two independent reviewers. The primary clinical outcome measures of network meta-analysis were overall survival (OS) while progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR) and adverse event of grade 3 or higher were secondary measures. 22 eligible trials were included in the systematic review, involving 3423 patients and 30 treatment regimens. Network meta-analysis included 11 treatments of 10 trials for OS and PFS, 10 treatments of 8 trials for ORR, and 8 treatments of 7 trials for adverse event grade 3 or higher. Regorafenib showed significant benefits in terms of OS in paired comparison with several treatments such as bevacizumab (hazard ratio (HR), 0.39; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.21-0.73), bevacizumab plus carboplatin (HR, 0.33; 95%CI, 0.16-0.68), bevacizumab plus dasatinib (HR, 0.44; 95%CI, 0.21-0.93), bevacizumab plus irinotecan (HR, 0.4; 95%CI, 0.21-0.74), bevacizumab plus lomustine (90 mg/m) (HR, 0.53; 95%CI, 0.33-0.84), bevacizumab plus lomustine (110 mg/m) (HR, 0.21; 95%CI, 0.06-0.7), bevacizumab plus vorinostat (HR, 0.42; 95%CI, 0.18-0.99), lomustine (HR, 0.5; 95%CI, 0.33-0.76), and nivolumab (HR, 0.38; 95%CI, 0.19-0.73). For PFS, only the hazard ratio between bevacizumab plus vorinostat and bevacizumab plus lomustine (90 mg/m) was significant (HR,0.51; 95%CI, 0.27-0.95). Lomustine and nivolumab conferred worse ORR. Safety analysis showed fotemustine as the best and bevacizumab plus temozolomide as the worst. The results suggested that regorafenib and bevacizumab plus lomustine (90 mg/m) provide improvements in terms of survival but may have poor ORR in patients with recurrent high-grade glioma.

Review
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) that target the pathological BCR-ABL1 fusion oncogene. The objective of this statistical meta-analysis was to assess the prevalence of other hematological adverse events (AEs) that occur during or after predominantly first-line treatment with TKIs. Data from seventy peer-reviewed, published studies were included in the analysis. Hematological AEs were assessed as a function of TKI drug type (dasatinib, imatinib, bosutinib, nilotinib) and CML phase (chronic, accelerated, blast). AE prevalence aggregated across all severities and phases was significantly different between each TKI ( < 0.05) for anemia-dasatinib (54.5%), bosutinib (44.0%), imatinib (32.8%), nilotinib (11.2%); neutropenia-dasatinib (51.2%), imatinib (29.8%), bosutinib (14.1%), nilotinib (14.1%); thrombocytopenia-dasatinib (62.2%), imatinib (30.4%), bosutinib (35.3%), nilotinib (22.3%). AE prevalence aggregated across all severities and TKIs was significantly ( < 0.05) different between CML phases for anemia-chronic (28.4%), accelerated (66.9%), blast (55.8%); neutropenia-chronic (26.7%), accelerated (63.8%), blast (36.4%); thrombocytopenia-chronic (33.3%), accelerated (65.6%), blast (37.9%). An odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval was used to compare hematological AE prevalence of each TKI compared to the most common first-line TKI therapy, imatinib. For anemia, dasatinib OR = 1.65, [1.51, 1.83]; bosutinib OR = 1.34, [1.16, 1.54]; nilotinib OR = 0.34, [0.30, 0.39]. For neutropenia, dasatinib OR = 1.72, [1.53, 1.92]; bosutinib OR = 0.47, [0.38, 0.58]; nilotinib OR = 0.47, [0.42, 0.54]. For thrombocytopenia, dasatinib OR = 2.04, [1.82, 2.30]; bosutinib OR = 1.16, [0.97, 1.39]; nilotinib OR = 0.73, [0.65, 0.82]. Nilotinib had the greatest fraction of severe (grade 3/4) hematological AEs (30%). In conclusion, the overall prevalence of hematological AEs by TKI type was: dasatinib > bosutinib > imatinib > nilotinib. Study limitations include inability to normalize for dosage and treatment duration.

Off-target effects in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) are associated with cardiovascular toxicity. Hypertension represents an important cardiovascular complication and, if not appropriately managed, can contribute to developing thrombotic events. Third-generation TKI ponatinib is associated with hypertension development, and its use is more restricted than in the past. Few data are reported for second-generation TKI, nilotinib, dasatinib, and bosutinib. The aim of this article was to evaluate with a systematic review and meta-analysis the real incidence of hypertension in CML patients treated with second- or third-generation TKI. The PubMed database, Web of Science, Scopus, and ClinicalTrials.gov were systematically searched for studies published between January 1, 2000, and January 30, 2021; the following terms were entered in the database queries: Cardiovascular, Chronic Myeloid Leukemia, CML, Tyrosine kinases inhibitor, TKI, and Hypertension. The study was carried out according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. A pooled analysis of hypertension incidence was 10% for all new-generation TKI, with an even higher prevalence with ponatinib (17%). The comparison with the first-generation imatinib confirmed that nilotinib was associated with a significantly increased risk of hypertension (RR 2; 95% CI; 1.39-2.88, I=0%, z=3.73, p=0.0002). The greatest risk was found with ponatinib (RR 9.21; 95% CI; 2.86-29.66, z=3.72, p=0.0002). Hypertension is a common cardiovascular complication in CML patients treated with second- or third-generation TKI.

OBJECTIVES
To investigate the effectiveness and safety of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) in the management of paediatric Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (Ph+ALL).
DESIGN
A systematic review and meta-analysis.
DATA SOURCES
Electronic searches were conducted on CENTRAL, MEDLINE, EMBASE, SIOP, ASPHO, ASCO, ASH and four Chinese databases from inception to 8 March 2020. Language of publications was restricted in English and Chinese.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA
Prospective and retrospective comparative studies were included.
DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS
Two authors independently assessed and extracted data. Quality of studies was assessed by the Cochrane Collaboration's tool and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale. Subgroup analysis was performed by comparing different types of TKIs. Quality of evidence was assessed using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach.
RESULTS
Two randomised controlled trials (RCTs) and four cohort studies enrolling 536 patients were included. For RCTs, the pooled HR was 0.68 (95% CI 0.26 to 1.78) in overall survival (OS), 0.63 (95% CI 0.28 to 1.42) in event-free survival (EFS), respectively, comparing TKI arm with non-TKI arm for treatment of paediatric Ph+ALL. There was significant difference in OS and EFS between imatinib arm and dasatinib arm (HR 2.26, 95% CI 1.02 to 5.01; HR 2.36; 95% CI 1.27 to 4.39, respectively). For cohort studies, the pooled HR was 0.25 (95% CI 0.14 to 0.47) in OS, 0.25 (95% CI 0.12 to 0.56) in EFS, respectively, comparing TKI arm with non-TKI arm. There was no significance difference in adverse drug reaction between TKI group and without TKI group (risk ratio (RR) 0.82, 95% CI 0.63 to 1.08 in RCT; RR 1.01, 95% CI 0.64 to 1.59 in cohort studies; respectively), and imatinib versus dasatinib (RR 0.97, 95% CI 0.77 to 1.23). The quality of evidence was rated as low for OS, EFS and adverse drug reaction (ADR).
CONCLUSIONS
The combination of TKIs with chemotherapy is likely to improve the OS and EFS rates in paediatric Ph+ALL, and dasatinib is superior than imatinib. Large sample size and prospective controlled studies are warranted.

Comparison of Hepatotoxicity Associated With New BCR-ABL Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors vs Imatinib Among Patients With Chronic Myeloid Leukemia: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
IMPORTANCE
Although BCR-ABL fusion oncoprotein tyrosine kinase inhibitors (BCR-ABL TKIs) can substantially improve the survival rate of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), they are clinically accompanied by severe hepatotoxicity.
OBJECTIVE
To compare the relative risk (RR) of hepatotoxicity of new-generation BCR-ABL TKIs with that of imatinib, and to provide an overall assessment of the clinical benefit.
DATA SOURCES
PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library databases, and ClinicalTrials.gov were searched for clinical trials published between January 2000 and April 2020.
STUDY SELECTION
Study selection was conducted independently by 2 investigators according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria published previously in the protocol: only randomized phase 2 or phase 3 clinical trials that compared bosutinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, or ponatinib with imatinib were included. Among the 2666 records identified, 9 studies finally fulfilled the established criteria.
DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS
Two investigators extracted study characteristics and data independently using a standardized data extraction form. Data were extracted according to Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) reporting guidelines. When substantial heterogeneity was observed, pooled estimates were calculated based on the random-effect model; otherwise, the fixed-effect model was used.
MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES
Data extracted included study characteristics, baseline patient information, interventions and data on all-grade and high-grade (grades 3 and 4) elevation of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels, overall survival, and major molecular response (MMR). The RRs and 95% CIs were calculated using the inverse variance method.
RESULTS
Nine trials involving 3475 patients were analyzed; the median (range) age was 49 (18-91) years; 2059 (59.2%) were male patients. Increased risks were observed for each new-generation TKI except for dasatinib. Patients receiving new-generation TKIs were more likely to experience all grades of ALT elevation (pooled RR, 2.89; 95% CI, 1.78-4.69; P < .001) and grades 3 and 4 ALT elevation (pooled RR, 4.36; 95% CI, 2.00-9.50; P < .001) compared with those receiving imatinib. Patients receiving new-generation TKIs were also more likely to experience all grades of AST elevation (pooled RR, 2.20; 95% CI, 1.63-2.98; P < .001) and grades 3 and 4 AST elevation (pooled RR, 2.65; 95% CI, 1.59-4.42; P < .001) compared with those receiving imatinib. New-generation TKIs were associated with a significantly higher rate of MMR at 1 year compared with imatinib (pooled RR, 1.59; 95% CI, 1.44-1.75; P < .001). No statistical difference in overall survival at 1 year was found between new-generation TKIs and imatinib (pooled RR, 1.00; 95% CI, 1.00-1.01; P = .33).
CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE
When compared to imatinib, bosutinib, nilotinib, and ponatinib had higher relative risks of hepatotoxicity. Treatment with new-generation TKIs was associated with a higher MMR rate at 1 year but not with 1-year overall survival.

Review
The number of cancer patients undergoing chronic treatment with target therapy is increasing. Although much is known about the toxicity of conventional anticancer therapies, evidence on the effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) on fertility is still lacking. Therefore, this review was undertaken to evaluate the effects of TKIs on male gonadal function. A comprehensive search of PubMed and Scopus databases was conducted, focusing on the effects of TKIs on spermatogenesis and testicular endocrine function. We included animal studies, observational studies, and case reports published up to December 31, 2023. Identified articles were reviewed and analyzed to evaluate the impact of TKIs on the male gonad. Their long-term effects, the reversibility of the observed changes, and the underlying molecular mechanisms involved were recorded. The findings emerging on the effects of TKIs on male gonadal function are conflicting. Although specific TKIs (imatinib, gefitinib, sorafenib, sunitinib, quizartinib, dasatinib, and nilotinib) have been identified as potentially as potential interfering with spermatogenesis and hormone production, the extent and severity of these effects may vary from patient to patient and between different drugs within this drug class. Experimental studies on mouse models have suggested a potential interference with spermatogenesis. Evidence also suggests that TKIs affects the hypothalamic-pituitary-testicular axis, decreasing serum testosterone and gonadotropin levels. The effects of TKIs on male gonadal function highlight the need for personalized treatment choices. Potential fertility concerns can help minimize adverse effects and improve patient outcomes. Addressing the potential impact of TKIs on male fertility helps optimize cancer treatment and survival outcomes.

Second-Generation Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Discontinuation in Chronic Myeloid Leukemia Patients with Stable Deep Molecular Response: A Systematic Review and a Meta-Analysis.
The treatment with 2nd-generation tyrosine kinase inhibitors (2G-TKIs), namely, dasatinib and nilotinib, has been reported to have faster and deeper responses in newly diagnosed chronic phase-chronic myeloid leukemia (CP-CML) patients as compared with imatinab. A number of studies on the discontinuation of 2G-TKIs have been conducted and recently published. A meta-analysis was conducted in this study to assess the rate of treatment-free remission (TFR) rate as well as the long-term safety of 2G-TKI discontinuation in CML patients with stable deep molecular response (DMR). 517 patients were recruited in 5 single-armed, prospective cohort studies. The overall weighted mean TFR rate at the follow-up of 12 months reached 57% (95% CI 51-64%; = 56.4%). The weighted mean TFR rate at the 24-month follow-up was 53% (95% CI 47-60%; = 47.1%). The loss of TFR was primarily concentrated in the first 12 months. 96.5% of patients, having restarted TKI therapy after a molecular relapse, achieved major molecular response (MMR) rapidly. There were four deaths at the two-year follow-up. As suggested from the results of the final study, 2G-TKI discontinuation in CML patients with stable DMR was reported to be feasible. Relapsed patients were retreated with 2G-TKI, and over 95% of patients could reach MMR. Almost no deaths occurred due to adverse events in two years after discontinuation, and more than half of the patients could maintain a TFR.
