Current strategies for management that usually include salvage chemotherapy, donor lymphocytic infusion and second transplantation. Our study assessed the efficacy of decitabine(DAC) for treating patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia(ALL) who relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT). We retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 12 patients with relapsed ALL after allo-HSCT who received DAC therapy. Nine patients received DAC combined with chemotherapy and donor stem cell infusion, and 3 patients received single-agent DAC. Ten of the 12 patients achieved complete remission(CR), 1 achieved a partial remission(PR), and 1 had no response(NR) after treatment at the latest follow-up(LFU), the median survival was 11.2 months(range, 3.8–34, 7 months). The 1-and 2-year overall survival(OS) rates were 50%(6/12) and 25%(3/12), respectively. Five patients were still alive; 4 had maintained CR and 1 was alive with disease. Patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL had higher survival rate than patients with Philadelphia chromosome-negative ALL(57.1% vs. 20%). No aggravated flares of graft-versus-host disease(GVHD) were observed during DAC treatment. Therefore, DAC may be a promising therapeutic agent for ALL recurrence after allo-HSCT.展开更多

文摘Background The prognosis for relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia(RR-AML)in children is poor,and the preferred salvage chemotherapy is unclear.One regimen is cladribine,cytarabine,and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor(CLAG),but little is known about its efficacy and safety in children with RR-AML.Methods We enrolled RR-AML patients aged 0-18 years who received modified CLAG regimen for re-induction between July 1,2015 and April 1,2018,or conventional induction between August 1,2011 and April 1,2018.Patients were followed up to March 31,2019.Patients underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation(allo-SCT)or chemotherapy after the induction of complete remission(CR).The CR rate,survival,and side effects were analyzed.Results The CR rate for induction was 66.7%after one cycle and 75.0%after two cycles of the CLAG regimen in 12 children.The nine children who received conventional chemotherapy had a CR rate of 22.2%after one cycle and 33.3%after two cycles(P=0.087 vs.CLAG).The 3-year event-free survival(EFS)of the CLAG group and the conventional treatment group were 44.4±15.7%and 22.2±13.8%(P=0.112).The 3-year overall survival of the two groups were 59.5±16.2%and 22.2%±13.8%(P=0.057).The 3-year EFS for allo-SCT and chemotherapy after CLAG regimen was 66.7±19.2%and 25.0±21.7%(P=0.015).A single case of chemotherapy-related death was recorded.Conclusion Our data suggest a promising CR rate using CLAG salvage treatment in childhood RR-AML.Allo-SCT after CR may improve the long-term outcome in these patients.
文摘BACKGROUND Infiltration of the breast by leukemic cells is uncommon but may manifest as an oncological emergency requiring prompt management.Extramedullary relapse of T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(T-ALL)within the breast is exceedingly rare and there is paucity of data in the literature regarding this entity.No consensus exists on management of isolated extramedullary breast relapses of T-ALL.Herein,we report a case of isolated extramedullary breast relapse of T-ALL treated with breathing adapted radiation therapy(BART)using the active breathing control(ABC)system.CASE SUMMARY The patient was a 33-year-old female with diagnosis of T-ALL.She received intensive systemic chemotherapy that resulted in complete remission of her disease,and then underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.After a 15 mo period without symptoms and signs of progression,the patient presented with palpable masses in both breasts.She complained from severe pain and swelling of the breasts.Imaging workup showed bilateral breast lesions,and diagnosis of breast infiltration by leukemic cells was confirmed after immunohistopathological evaluation.The patient suffering from severe pain,discomfort,and swelling of both breasts due to leukemic infiltration was referred to the Radiation Oncology Department for symptomatic palliation.Whole breast irradiation was delivered to both breasts of the patient with BART using the ABC system.The patient had complete resolution of her symptoms after treatment with BART.CONCLUSION BART with the ABC system resulted in complete resolution of the patient’s symptoms due to leukemic infiltration of both breasts with T-ALL.This contemporary treatment technique should be preferred for radiotherapeutic management of patients with leukemic infiltration of the breasts to achieve effective symptomatic palliation.
文摘目的探究高通量药敏(high-throughput drug sensitivity,HDS)检测技术在儿童复发难治性急性白血病(relapsed and refractory acute 1eukermia,RR-AL)的应用现状及分析挽救治疗方案的可行性。方法回顾性收集2021年11月—2023年10月郑州大学第一附属医院儿童血液与肿瘤科行HDS检测的RR-AL患儿的临床资料,并对药敏结果及治疗结局进行分析。结果17例RR-AL患儿接受HDS检测,复发难治性急性髓系白血病7例(41%),复发难治性急性淋巴细胞白血病10例(59%)。高度敏感化疗药物/方案的检出率为53%(9/17),中度敏感化疗药物/方案的检出率为100%(17/17)。17例RR-AL患儿高度敏感度和中度敏感度化疗药物及方案中,MOACD方案(米托蒽醌+长春新碱+阿糖胞苷+环磷酰胺+地塞米松)占比100%,单药米托蒽醌抑制率最高(94%,16/17),靶向药抑制率最高为硼替佐米(94%,16/17)。9例患儿根据HDS结果调整化疗,行造血干细胞移植4例;无病生存4例,死亡5例。8例经验化疗,行造血干细胞移植2例;无病生存4例,死亡4例。结论HDS检测技术可为儿童RR-AL筛选出高度敏感药物/方案,提高再次缓解率,为后续进行造血干细胞移植创造条件。
文摘CD19-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell(CAR-T)therapy is effective in refractory/relapsed(R/R)B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL).This review focuses on achievements,current obstacles,and future directions in CAR-T research.A high complete remission rate of 68%to 93%could be achieved after anti-CD19 CAR-T treatment for B-ALL.Cytokine release syndrome and CAR-T-related neurotoxicity could be managed.In view of difficulties collecting autologous lymphocytes,universal CAR-T is a direction to explore.Regarding the high relapse rate after anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy,the main solutions have been developing new targets including CD22 CAR-T,or CD19/CD22 dual CAR-T.Additionally,some studies showed that bridging into transplant post-CAR-T could improve leukemia-free survival.Some patients who did not respond to CAR-T therapy were found to have an abnormal conformation of the CD19 exon or trogocytosis.Anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy for R/R B-ALL is effective.From individual to universal CAR-T,from one target to multi-targets,CAR-T-cell has a chance to be off the shelf in the future.
