To evaluate the safety and efficacy of crizotinib used in pediatric patients with relapsed or refractory ALK-positive anaplastic large-cell lymphoma (ALCL).
The paper describes the experience with crizotinib used in 8 patients with refractory ALK-ALCL before and after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).
All the 8 (100%) patients treated with crizotinib were recorded to have complete responses, including complete metabolic ones (tumor disappearance as evidenced by positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography.
Low and manageable toxicity of crizotinib and complete PET-negative responses in patients with resistant ALK lymphomas favor the need to test the drug as first-line therapy, by possibly decreasing the intensification of chemotherapy.
评估克唑替尼用于复发或难治性ALK阳性间变性大细胞淋巴瘤(ALCL)儿科患者的安全性和有效性。
本文描述了8例难治性ALK-ALCL患者在异基因造血干细胞移植(HSCT)前后使用克唑替尼的经验。
所有8例(100%)接受克唑替尼治疗的患者均有完全缓解记录,包括完全代谢缓解(正电子发射断层扫描(PET)/计算机断层扫描显示肿瘤消失)。
克唑替尼毒性低且可控,耐药性ALK淋巴瘤患者PET完全阴性反应表明,可能通过降低化疗强度,有必要将该药物作为一线治疗进行试验。
