Maternal anticancer drug exposure and leukemia; PIEZO1-TMEM16F coupling in hereditary xerocytosis; NPM1 MRD during venetoclax therapy in NPM1-mutated AML

In this week’s episode, we’ll discuss the association between occupational exposure to anticancer agents in a parent and subsequent cancer in a child. Then we’ll learn about deciphering and disrupting the activation of PIEZO1 in hereditary xerocytosis. Finally, we’ll hear about the assessment of measurable residual disease, or MRD, in patients with NPM1-mutated AML, or acute myeloid leukemia, receiving venetoclax-based NON-intensive therapy.
