Outcomes in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) have improved; however, a significant number of patients still relapse despite receiving all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) and arsenic-based therapies.
Outcomes of patients with relapsed APL who were treated at our institution (1980-2010) and who received HCT were compared with those who received chemotherapy (CT) only.
Among 40 patients, 24 received HCT (autologous [auto] HCT, 7; allogeneic [allo] HCT, 14; both, 3); 16 received CT only. The median age at diagnosis was 36 years (range, 13-50 years), 31 years (range, 16-58 years), and 44 years (range, 24-79 years) for the auto-HCT, allo-HCT, and CT groups, respectively. Ten (100%) patients who received auto-HCT and 12 (71%) who received allo-HCT were in complete remission at the time of the HCT. The median follow-ups in the auto-HCT, allo-HCT, and CT groups were 74 months (range, 26-135 months), 118 months (range, 28-284 months), and 122 months (range, 32-216 months), respectively. Transplantation-related mortality (1 year) after auto-HCT and allo-HCT were 10% and 29%, respectively. The 7-year event-free survival after auto-HCT and allo-HCT was 68.6% and 40.6%, respectively (P = .45). The 7-year overall survival was 85.7%, 49.4%, and 40% in the auto-HCT, allo-HCT, and CT groups, respectively (P = .48).
Both auto-HCT and allo-HCT are associated with durable remission and prolonged survival. All 3 strategies (auto-HCT, allo-HCT, CT) were found to be feasible in the relapsed APL setting and result in long-term disease control in selected patients. In this retrospective analysis, overall survival for patients who received HCT was not significantly better than patients who received CT only, but a trend toward better outcomes was seen in patients who underwent auto-HCT, although not statistically significant.
急性早幼粒细胞白血病(APL)患者的预后已经得到改善;然而,尽管接受了全反式维甲酸(ATRA)和砷剂治疗,仍有相当数量的患者复发。
比较了我院(1980-2010 年)收治的接受 HCT 治疗的复发 APL 患者的结局与仅接受化疗(CT)治疗的患者。
在 40 例患者中,24 例接受 HCT(自体[auto]HCT,7 例;异基因[allo]HCT,14 例;两者均为 3 例);16 例仅接受 CT。auto-HCT、allo-HCT 和 CT 组患者的中位年龄分别为 36 岁(范围 13-50 岁)、31 岁(范围 16-58 岁)和 44 岁(范围 24-79 岁)。10 例(100%)接受 auto-HCT 的患者和 12 例(71%)接受 allo-HCT 的患者在 HCT 时处于完全缓解状态。auto-HCT、allo-HCT 和 CT 组的中位随访时间分别为 74 个月(范围 26-135 个月)、118 个月(范围 28-284 个月)和 122 个月(范围 32-216 个月)。auto-HCT 和 allo-HCT 后的 1 年移植相关死亡率分别为 10%和 29%。auto-HCT 和 allo-HCT 后的 7 年无事件生存率分别为 68.6%和 40.6%(P=0.45)。auto-HCT、allo-HCT 和 CT 组的 7 年总生存率分别为 85.7%、49.4%和 40%(P=0.48)。
自体 HCT 和 allo-HCT 均与持久缓解和延长生存相关。在复发 APL 背景下,3 种策略(自体 HCT、allo-HCT、CT)均可行,并使选定患者的疾病得到长期控制。在这项回顾性分析中,接受 HCT 治疗的患者的总生存率并未明显优于仅接受 CT 治疗的患者,但接受自体 HCT 治疗的患者的生存结局有改善趋势,尽管无统计学意义。
