The effect of a small dose of aclacinomycin-A (ACR) was examined in two patients with refractory anemia (RA) and two with refractory anemia with excess of blasts in transformation (RAEB-t). ACR (7 or 14 mg/m2) was given for 10 days in a 2-h per day drip infusion. Clinical symptoms and laboratory data improved in 3 of these 4 patients. In a patient with RA, marked increase in reticulocytes and elevation of the hemoglobin level from 6 to 9 g/dl was observed after two courses of ACR therapy. In two with RAEB-t, Auer's rod bearing cells disappeared in the bone marrow and megaloblastic change of the erythroblasts was diminished in one patient. Hemoglobin levels rose from 4.7 to 10 g/dl in one, and platelets and WBC increased in another. No effect was seen in a patient with RA. The cytoreductive effect of ACR was minor compared to the therapy with small dose of cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C). Therefore, ACR warrants further consideration for the treatment of patients with MDS.
研究了小剂量阿克拉霉素 -A(ACR)对两名难治性贫血(RA)患者和两名难治性贫血伴原始细胞过多转化(RAEB -t)患者的疗效。ACR(7或14mg/m²)以每天2小时静脉滴注的方式给药10天。这4名患者中有3名的临床症状和实验室数据有所改善。在一名RA患者中,经过两个疗程的ACR治疗后,网织红细胞显著增加,血红蛋白水平从6g/dl升至9g/dl。在两名RAEB -t患者中,一名患者骨髓中含奥氏小体的细胞消失,成红细胞的巨幼样变减轻。一名患者的血红蛋白水平从4.7g/dl升至10g/dl,另一名患者的血小板和白细胞增加。一名RA患者未见疗效。与小剂量阿糖胞苷(Ara -C)治疗相比,ACR的细胞减灭作用较小。因此,ACR在骨髓增生异常综合征患者的治疗中值得进一步考虑。
