文摘目的 探讨CAR-T细胞疗法治疗老年急性B淋巴细胞白血病(B-ALL)患者的安全性和有效性。方法 回顾性分析2020年5月—2022年12月苏州大学附属第一医院收治的接受CAR-T治疗的21例老年急性B淋巴细胞白血病患者的临床及随访资料,探讨CAR-T的有效性及安全性。结果 21例老年B-ALL患者CAR-T治疗后细胞因子释放综合征(cytokine release syndrome,CRS),中性粒细胞减少症和中性粒细胞缺乏症发生率分别为:38.1%(8/21),42.9%(9/21)和28.6%(6/21);与CAR-T回输前相比,CAR-T后一周白细胞绝对计数无显著差异,一个月后显著升高(P<0.001),中性粒细胞计数在CAR-T后一周和一个月均无显著差异(P>0.05),C反应蛋白在CAR-T后7天显著升高,30天后显著降低(-3 d vs 7 d,P=0.007;30 d vs 7 d,P=0.000 6);首次输注CAR-T后完全缓解率(complete remission,CR)为85.7%(18/21),中位随访时间为17个月;CAR-T后无进展生存率(progression-free survival,PFS)为81.0%,与性别、CAR-T细胞类型、费城染色体、高肿瘤负荷、桥接造血干细胞移植(HSCT)、治疗次数、LDH值以及血小板计数均无相关性(P>0.05),中位PFS为13个月;R/R B-ALL患者CAR-T治疗后CR率为75%(6/8),PFS率为67.5%,中位PFS时间为12个月;回输CAR-T后复发时间平均为10.2个月。结论 CAR-T细胞疗法用于治疗老年B-ALL患者具有较好的缓解率,为预后差的老年B-ALL患者提供有潜能的治疗手段。
