ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the correlation between pretransplant serum ferritin (SF) level and prolonged or prolonged isolated thrombocytopenia (PT) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 35 patients with PT after allo-HSCT were retrospectively analyzed, and 35 patients were matched according to age and sex as a controls from 424 allo-HSCT patients with normal platelet count. The serum ferritin level before the transplantation was analyzed. The potential risk factors were analyzed by chi-square test and Fisher's exact test as well as univariate and multivariate logistic regression. The survival curve was estimated by the Kaplan-Meier model to explore its clinical significance. In addition, ROC curve was used to verify the predictive power of SF.@*RESULTS@#Compared with control group, the SF level in the PT group before transplantation significantly increased (P=0.001). Multivariate analysis results showed that SF level before transplantation was a risk factor for prolonged thrombocytopenia after HSCT, and patients with SF≥1000 ng / ml showed a higher risk of death (P=0.014). ROC curve showed that SF level could be used as a predictor of prolonged thrombocytopenia after allo-HSCT.@*CONCLUSION@#The SF level before allo-HSCT relates with occurrence and prognosis of PT in patients after allo-HSCT. Detection of SF level can provide guidance for the intervention of prolonged thrombocytopenia after HSCT.

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the efficacy of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hi-HSCT) HLA-matched sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (MSD-HSCT) and post-remission chemotherapy (PR-CT) in treatment of intermediate risk acute myeloid leukemia with negative for FLT3-ITD, NPM1 or biallelic CEBPA mutation.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of patients with intermediate risk NPM1/non-CEBPA/FLT3-ITD AML from October 2009 to May 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.@*RESULTS@#The overall survival rate of the patients treated with PR-CT, MSD-HSCT or hi-HSCT was 63.7%, 71.7%, 75.5%, respectively (P＜0.05); the disease-free survival (DFS) rate was 52.8%, 67.1%, 71.3% respectively (P＜0.001); the cumulative incidence of relapse was 24.7%, 16.9%, 14.4% respectively (P＜0.05); the non-relapse mortality was 26.2%, 17.3%, 14.4% reapectively (P＞0.05). The analysis of transplantation, related adverse events showed that II-IV grade of aGVHD in the MSD-HSCT group and hi-HSCT group was 48.9% and 45.6% respectively (P＞0.05); the extensive cGVHD event was 21.6% and 8.8% (P＜0.05) respectively.@*CONCLUSION@#The efficiency of hi-HSCT and MSD-HSCT is superior to that of PR-CT for treatment of patients with intermediate risk NPM1/non-CEBPA/FLT3-ITD AML after CR1, there is no statistically significant difference in the efficiency of consolidatorg treatment and the transplantation-related mortality between hi-HSCT and MSD-HSCT.
