Etoposide-based treatment is the standard of care for adult HLH in many centers, yet there remains a paucity of data regarding treatment outcomes. We conducted a retrospective study of 23 adults treated with etoposide-based therapy compared to 10 pediatric HLH cases at a single center. At diagnosis, the median serum ferritin was 20,071 µg/L and 937 µg/L in adults and children, respectively; median sIL-2r was 14,524 U/mL and 4,478 U/mL. Biochemical response to treatment was high, with 21/23 adults achieving >75% reduction in serum ferritin, but one year survival was only 7/21 compared to 7/10 in pediatric cases.
在许多中心,基于依托泊苷的治疗是成人噬血细胞性淋巴组织细胞增生症(HLH)的标准治疗方法,但关于治疗结果的数据仍然很少。我们在一个中心对23例接受基于依托泊苷治疗的成人患者与10例儿童HLH病例进行了回顾性研究。诊断时,成人和儿童的血清铁蛋白中位数分别为20,071 µg/L和937 µg/L;可溶性白细胞介素-2受体(sIL-2r)中位数分别为14,524 U/mL和4,478 U/mL。治疗的生化反应率很高,23例成人中有21例血清铁蛋白降低>75%,但成人的一年生存率仅为7/21,而儿童病例为7/10。
