A 63-year-old male with refractory anemia with excess of blasts (RAEB) and hypoplastic marrow was treated with K-18 (240 mg/day P.O.). On admission, peripheral blood revealed pancytopenia. Bone marrow specimen revealed severe hypocellularity with 18.9% of the blast cells. Ten months later, the blast cells in the bone marrow decreased to 3.8%, and complete remission (CR) was obtained. CR was eight weeks. Duration of response (CR + PR) continued for about eight months. K-18 is an antitumor agent with minimal side effects, and seems to be effective for RAEB with hypoplastic marrow.
一名63岁男性,患有伴原始细胞增多的难治性贫血(RAEB)且骨髓增生低下,接受了K-18治疗(口服,每日240毫克)。入院时,外周血显示全血细胞减少。骨髓标本显示严重的细胞减少,原始细胞占18.9%。十个月后,骨髓中的原始细胞降至3.8%,达到完全缓解(CR)。CR持续了八周。缓解持续时间(CR + PR)约为八个月。K-18是一种副作用极小的抗肿瘤药物,似乎对伴有骨髓增生低下的RAEB有效。
