The NPM-ALK fusion protein is found in ALK(+) anaplastic large cell lymphomas harboring the t(2;5) chromosomal translocation. Patients harboring ALK translocations typically have an excellent prognosis with conventional chemotherapy and a reported 5-year survival rate of 70%. Although most patients with ALK(+) anaplastic large cell lymphoma have a good prognosis, some patients do not respond to standard therapies. In patients with refractory anaplastic large cell lymphoma who can achieve remission, allogeneic stem cell transplant is a potentially curative option. This article describes a patient with refractory ALK(+) anaplastic large cell lymphoma who experienced a complete response to the ALK inhibitor crizotinib and then underwent an allogeneic stem cell transplant followed by crizotinib maintenance therapy.
NPM-ALK 融合蛋白存在于携带 t(2;5)染色体易位的 ALK(+)间变大细胞淋巴瘤中。携带 ALK 易位的患者通常对常规化疗具有良好的预后,据报道 5 年生存率为 70%。尽管大多数 ALK(+)间变大细胞淋巴瘤患者预后良好,但有些患者对标准治疗无反应。在能够缓解的难治性间变大细胞淋巴瘤患者中,异基因造血干细胞移植是一种潜在的治愈方法。本文描述了 1 例难治性 ALK(+)间变大细胞淋巴瘤患者,该患者对 ALK 抑制剂克唑替尼治疗完全缓解,随后进行了异基因造血干细胞移植和克唑替尼维持治疗。
