Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) consists of precursor B ALL or T ALL phenotypes. In the pediatric population, ALL patients enjoy an 80% long-term survival with the current pediatric chemotherapy protocols as compared with 50% long-term survival in the adult population. In adults, complete remission rates are similar to those of pediatric patients; however, long-term survival is much lower with the majority of deaths attributable to relapsed disease. Postremission consolidation strategies in adults include chemotherapy, autologous, or allogeneic transplant. Pediatric-inspired chemotherapy protocols are being explored as a consolidation modality in adults. Assigning patients to either modality depends on patient and disease characteristics. Here, we review the literature on the use of hematopoietic cell transplantation as a consolidation modality in the treatment of adult ALL.
急性淋巴细胞白血病(ALL)由前驱B淋巴细胞白血病或T淋巴细胞白血病表型组成。在儿科人群中,采用当前的儿科化疗方案,ALL患者的长期生存率为80%,而成人患者的长期生存率为50%。在成人中,完全缓解率与儿科患者相似;然而,长期生存率要低得多,大多数死亡归因于疾病复发。成人缓解后巩固策略包括化疗、自体或异基因移植。正在探索以儿科化疗方案为基础的巩固方式用于成人。将患者分配至任何一种方式都取决于患者和疾病特征。在此,我们综述了关于造血细胞移植作为巩固方式用于治疗成人ALL的文献。
