FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3-internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD)-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has a poor prognosis, particularly with DNMT3A and NPM1 mutations. Quizartinib, a FLT3 inhibitor showing clinical benefit in FLT3-ITD-positive AML, has unclear safety and efficacy when combined with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI). We report a case of FLT3-ITD-positive AML with DNMT3A and NPM1 mutations that relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) and was treated with quizartinib and DLI. A 49-year-old man was diagnosed with AML. Target-sequencing analysis of the bone marrow revealed FLT3-ITD, DNMT3A R882, and NPM1 mutations. Although the patient achieved complete remission (CR) through induction therapy and received allo-HCT, he relapsed on day 71. Quizartinib was initiated on day 79, and the patient achieved CR with incomplete recovery on day 106. He did not desire a second allo-HCT and continued quizartinib in combination with DLI, which was started on day 156 and administered eight times every 2 to 3 months. The patient achieved hematological CR on day 163 and remained in molecular CR 3 years after allo-HCT without adverse effects. Quizartinib combined with DLI may be a feasible treatment for early relapse of FLT3-ITD-positive AML after allo-HCT, even with concurrent DNMT3A and NPM1 mutations.
FMS样酪氨酸激酶3内部串联重复(FLT3-ITD)阳性的急性髓系白血病(AML)预后较差,尤其是伴有DNMT3A和NPM1突变时。Quizartinib是一种在FLT3-ITD阳性AML中显示出临床益处的FLT3抑制剂,与供体淋巴细胞输注(DLI)联合使用时,其安全性和疗效尚不清楚。我们报告了1例伴有DNMT3A和NPM1突变的FLT3-ITD阳性AML病例,该患者在异基因造血干细胞移植(allo-HCT)后复发,并接受了Quizartinib和DLI治疗。一名49岁男性被诊断为AML。骨髓靶向测序分析显示存在FLT3-ITD、DNMT3A R882和NPM1突变。尽管患者通过诱导治疗实现了完全缓解(CR)并接受了allo-HCT,但在第71天复发。在第79天开始使用Quizartinib,患者在第106天实现了CR但恢复不完全。他不希望进行第二次allo-HCT,继续使用Quizartinib联合DLI,DLI于第156天开始,每2至3个月给药8次。患者在第163天实现了血液学CR,allo-HCT后3年仍处于分子CR状态,且无不良反应。Quizartinib联合DLI可能是allo-HCT后FLT3-ITD阳性AML早期复发的一种可行治疗方法,即使同时存在DNMT3A和NPM1突变。
