Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The last few years have ushered in a new era of hematological malignancy research; the advent and approval of multiple targeted therapies and an improved understanding of patient immune systems have resulted in major progress in the development of immune therapies, including monoclonal antibodies with and without conjugated toxins (bacterial or chemical), bispecific T-cell engagers and DART antibodies, immune-checkpoint-based therapies, and CAR-T cell approaches.
At the same time, tumor biology has also seen recent advancements, leading to new combinations of drugs and novel therapies.
The numerous ongoing trials evaluating these therapies, with well-designed correlative interrogation of the immune system in patients treated in such trials, will further enhance our understanding of immune therapies with both single-agent and combination approaches.
This Special Issue will focus on personalized medicine in hematology, the efficacy of novel therapeutics, and promising combination approaches for further improving patient treatment outcomes.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
