In this Issue

Under clinical studies, a group of pediatric oncologists (Yulia V. Skvortsova et al.) from D. Rogachev Memorial Center of Pediatric Hematology, Oncology and Immunology (Mos- cow) present a large review with sufficient clinical data on posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) which may develop after solid organ transplantations and alloge- neic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (allo-HSCT), being a specific posttransplant complication in immuno- suppressed patients. Its origin is, most probably, viral (Ep- stein-Barr virus), but cytostatic treatment depends on its clinical and morphological features. The authors describe PTLD in a skilled manner, being both comprehensive and valuable to clinicians.

Another clinical article by Julia Yu. Vlasova et al. (St. Peters- burg-Moscow) deals with a special genetic variant of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) which, due to T315I mutation in BCR/ABL gene, does not respond to the best available tar- geted treatment, i.e., Imatinib and some other tyrosine ki- nase inhibitors which are effective in majority of CML cases without such a mutation. The authors describe strategies of treatment for such cases including Ponatinib treatment, or allo-HSCT which can be a potential option for selected pa- tients.

A review by A. B. Chukhlovin describes some genes which may predispose for common immune complications in allo-HSCT, in order to demonstrate that a number of non- HLA genes may influence immune complications (e.g., acute GvHD) and total survival of the patients following allogeneic HSCT. Interestingly, many of these gene variants are encod- ed by donor genome, thus showing some value for genotyp- ing of HSCT donors to predict risk of immune disorders post-HSCT.

We could not also miss such an important event as a joint meeting of leading hematologists from M.D.Anderson Med- ical Center (Houston, Texas, USA) and Russian hemato-on- cologists devoted to diagnostics and treatment of myelo- and lymphoproliferative disorders. Emerging issues of molecular diagnostics and clinical trials of novel targeted drugs were presented and discussed.

Continuing discussion about novel legislation and regu- lations in the field of gene editing and its possible clinical introduction, we publish a short opinion on the matter by Mikhail Samsonov, a Moscow expert in R&D of novel medi- cal drugs. We would be glad to get alternative views concern- ing gene editing, gene therapy and, especially, new approach- es to cellular therapy in oncology.
