RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the efficiency and pharmacoeconomics of pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) for mobilization of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCM) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:The data of 91 patients with newly treated MM who were hospitalized in the First Hospital of Jilin University and Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College from January 2015 to October 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the patient's wishes, a high-dose chemotherapy combined with subcutaneous injection of PEG-rhG-CSF or recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) was used for stem cell mobilization in 42 and 49 patients, respectively. The number of mononuclear cells (MNC) and CD34 + cells collected after mobilization, the maximum absolute neutrophil count (mANC), the cost of mobilization, and the engraftment time of white blood cells and platelets after transplantation were compared between the two groups. Results:The median number of MNC collected after mobilization in the PEG-rhG-CSF group and rhG-CSF group were 5.86×10 8/kg [(1.08-24.54)×10 8/kg] and 6.61×10 8/kg [(0.83-33.80)×10 8/kg], and the difference was not statistically significant ( U = 883.00, P = 0.245); while the median number of CD34 + cells collected after mobilization in the PEG-rhG-CSF group was higher than that in the rhG-CSF group [5.56×10 6/kg (0.94-19.90)×10 6/kg and 4.82×10 6/kg (1.12-14.61)×10 6/kg], and the difference was statistically significant ( U = 732.00, P = 0.038). The median number of mANC during mobilization in the PEG-rhG-CSF group was lower than that in the rhG-CSF group [20.50×10 9/L (7.26-61.30)×10 9/L and 32.08×10 9/L (6.92-69.99)×10 9/L], and the difference was statistically significant ( U = 490.00, P = 0.001). After autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), the time-to-recovery of white blood cell count (WBC) to 1.0×10 9/L in the PEG-rhG-CSF group was shorter than that in the rhG-CSF group [(11.59±1.98) d vs. (12.93±2.83) d], and the difference was statistically significant ( t = -2.395, P = 0.019), and the time-to-recovery of platelet count (Plt) to 20.0×10 9/L in the PEG-rhG-CSF group was also shorter than that in the rhG-CSF group [(12.86±2.62) d vs. (14.80±5.47) d], but the difference was not statistically significant ( t = -1.749, P = 0.085). The total mobilization cost of the PEG-rhG-CSF group was not statistically different from that of the rhG-CSF group [(21 405.47±7 365.98) yuan vs. (22 976.83±10 264.34) yuan, t = -0.721, P = 0.474]. Conclusions:PEG-rhG-CSF combined with high-dose chemotherapy is an effective option for PBSCM in MM patients, and its mobilization cost is equivalent to rhG-CSF. Therefore, PEG-rhG-CSF may be a better choice for PBSCM in MM patients.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the prognostic factors in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) patients with 1q21 amplification/gain treated with bortezomib-based regimens followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) . @*Methods@#We retrospectively assayed 35 NDMM patients with 1q21 amplification/gain who received bortezomib-based chemotherapy followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy between January 2008 and August 2015. @*Results@#①The median age of 35 patients were 49(33-63)years old. Ratio of male to female was 22∶13. Monosomy1q21 amplification/gain was only seen in 3(8.6%) patients, the other 32 patients were with additional cytogenetic abnormalities including 13q14 deletion, t(11,14), t(4,14), t(14,16), 17p deletion and complex karyotype aberrations. ②The complete remission (CR) rate was 57.0% (20/35), the very good partial remission(VGPR) rate was 37.1%(13/35) and the partial remission (PR) rate was 5.7%(2/35) after ASCT. At a median follow-up of 24 (8-85) months, 3-year estimated progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rate were (66.5±9.7)% and (69.6±9.9)%, respectively. ③As 13 patients with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities, the median PFS and OS time was 26 and 28 months. The 3-year estimated PFS and OS was (28.0±15.9)% and (36.5±16.4)%, respectively. Another 22 patients without other high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities, the median PFS and OS time was 54 months and not reached. The 3-year estimated PFS and OS was (71.5±12.7)% and (92.3±7.4)% in this group, respectively. The presence of additional other high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities resulted in significantly shortened PFS (χ2=5.404, P=0.020) and OS (χ2=7.596, P=0.006) compared with no high-risk cytogenetic patients. @*Conclusion@#NDMM patients with isolated1q21 amplification/gain were rarely and usually had additional other cytogenetic abnormalities. The outcomes in this group treated with bortezomib-based chemotherapy followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy were satisfied, additional other high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities made PFS and OS further shortened.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the curative effect of hairy cell leukemia by clatabine. @*Methods@#The clinical data of 24 patients with hairy cell leukemia treated by cladribine from November 2006 to October 2017 were analyzed retrospectively, then the curative effect and adverse drug reaction were analyzed. @*Results@#① A total of 24 patients including 22 male and 2 female, and the median age was 49.5 years (range 33 to 76) at diagnosis. There were 20 patients with of splenomegaly (4 patients with mild splenomegaly, 4 moderate splenomegaly, and 12 massive splenomegaly), 3 patients with enlargement of lymph nodes, and 1 patients who had undergone splenectomy. Five patients were pancytopenia, 15 were cytopenia in 2 lineages, and 4 patients were cytopenia only in one lineage. The median ratio of HCL cells detected by flow cytometry in bone marrow was 21.79% (0.69%-68.96%). BRAF mutation was detected in 15 patients by first generation or next generation sequencing technology. ② Among 24 patients, 20 were treated with cladribine alone (one course in 19 patients, 2 courses in 1 patient), and 4 patients were treated with cladribine combined with rituximab (one course in 3 patients, 2 courses in 1 patient). Excepting 5 patients whose follow-up time was not reaching 6 months, 19 patients were evaluated for efficacy in 6-12 months after treatment: 9 patients obtained CR, 9 obtained unconfirmed CR (Cru), the other 1 obtained PR, the CR/CRu rate was 94.7%, the overall response rate (ORR) was 100.0%. ③ All the 24 patients appeared 2-4 grade hematological adverse reactions after cladribine treatment, which were mainly grade 3/4 neutropenia (66.67%) and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia (29.2%). All the adverse reactions were controlled or recovered spontaneously. ④ After the median follow-up time of 15 (3-133) months, no progression, recurrence or death occurred in the patients. Both median OS and PFS were not reached. @*Conclusion@#This study suggests that treatment of HCL with cladribine has high response rate, controllable adverse reactions and the good prognosis.
RESUMO
Objective@#To assess the feasibility and prognostic value of the minimal residual disease (MRD) evaluated by multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) in the newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) patients of China.@*Methods@#Clinical data of 106 consecutively newly diagnosed MM patients with MRD data were retrospectively analyzed in a single center in China from June 2013 to June 2015.@*Results@#① Of 106 patients, 48 (45.3%) achieved MRD negativity. The median time to MRD-negative was 3 months. More patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) achieved MRD negativity compared with non-ASCT patients (62.2% vs 36.2%, χ2=6.536, P=0.011). ② Of 48 patients in complete remission (CR), 7 (14.6%) was MRD positive, 5 of them showed disease progression (PD) during the follow-up, and 3 died. The median progression free survival (PFS) was 19 months, and the median overall survival (OS) was 28 months, both were significantly shorter than the CR patients with MRD-negative (P<0.05). ③At a median follow-up of 38 months, MRD-negative patients showed significantly superior outcomes compared with MRD positive ones, the PFS was not reach versus 17 months and the OS was not reach for both (P<0.001). Patients were grouped into 4 categories according to their MRD levels: 1% or higher, 0.1% to less than 1%, 0.01% to less than 0.1%, or negative. It showed that the outcomes (PFS and OS) tended to be improved along with the tumor depletion. ④ Multivariate prognostic analysis showed that MRD was a powerful independent prognostic factor for PFS[HR=0.133 (95% CI 0.062-0.288) , P<0.001] and OS[HR=0.156 (95% CI 0.050-0.484) , P=0.001]. According to MRD and cytogenetics, the patients were classified into 4 groups. High risk patients with MRD negative presented a significantly better outcome than high risk patients with MRD-positive, and a similar one to the standard risk patients with MRD-negative.@*Conclusions@#MRD negativity by MFC was more popular in MM patients undergoing ASCT. MRD was an independent prognostic factor in MM. And the prognosis of MM patients can be stratified according to the level of MRD. MRD-negative patients with high risk cytogenetics presented a similar outcome to the standard risk ones. MRD by MFC should therefore be considered more widely applied in the clinic.
RESUMO
Objective@#To evaluate the efficacy and long-term outcome of a combined protocol for multiple myeloma (MM) , including induction therapy, autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and consolidation and maintenance therapy.@*Methods@#Clinical records of 144 patients with MM from January 1, 2005 to February 1, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.@*Results@#The overall response rate (ORR) after ASCT was 100.0%, in which the complete remission (CR) was 64.1% and the best treatment response rate of superior to PR was 89.4%. During a median follow-up of 47 months, patients with an overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) was 120.9 and 56.9 months respectively. 5y-OS (73.7±4.7) %, 7y-OS (60.5±6.3) %; 3y-PFS (69.2±4.2) %, 5y-PFS (47.8±5.3) %. The median OS and PFS between the first line transplantation group and salvage transplantation group were 120.9 months vs 50.1 months and 60.2 months vs 16.7 months (all P=0.000). In 127 patients with R-ISS staging, the median survival of Ⅰ, Ⅱ, Ⅲ stage was 120.9 months (n=43) , 88.4 months (n=64) , 35.6 months (n=20) , respectively (P=0.000). For subgroup analysis of survival in early and late ASCT, the median OS of patients with R-ISS stage Ⅲ (35.6 months vs 15.8 months, P=0.031) and the median PFS of two groups (phase Ⅰ: 72.1 months vs 18.9 months, P=0.000; Ⅱ: 53.4 months vs 16.7 months, P=0.012; Ⅲ: 28.5 months vs 5.9 months, P=0.001) were different. Multivariate analysis showed that only R-ISS and the degree of remission before transplantation had impact on OS (HR=8.486, 95% CI 2.549-28.255, P=0.003) and PFS (HR=2.412, 95% CI 1.364-4.266, P=0.002) , respectively.@*Conclusion@#The combined protocol containing ASCT is effective for MM patients, improving remission rate and remission depth, prolonging PFS and OS. First line transplantation could significantly prolong the OS and PFS as compared with salvage transplantation. R-ISS and pre-transplantation remission depth are prognostic factors for survival.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the clinical status of lymphoid tissue neoplasms patients with bacteria bloodstream infections, bacteriology and drug susceptibility results, and provide the basis for rational clinical anti-infection option.@*Methods@#A retrospectively analysis of clinical data and bacterial susceptibility test results of patients with bacteria bloodstream infections from September 2010 to December 2014 was conducted.@*Results@#A total of 134 cases including 107 patients with bloodstream infections were enrolled. 84 cases were male, 50 cases were female, the median age was 31 (12-71) years old. 112 cases were agranulocytosis, and 106 cases were severe agranulocytosis (ANC<0.1×109/L) . 27 cases underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 100 cases received chemotherapy[33 cases with VD (I) CP±L (vincristine+daunorubicin/idarubicin + cyclophosphamide + prednison±asparaginasum) induction chemotherapy, 41 cases with intensive chemotherapy of Hyper-CVAD/MA or MA (mitoxantrone+cytarabine) , 26 cases with other chemotherapy regimens], and 7 cases were infected without chemotherapy. 10 patients discharged from hospital owing to treatment abandoning, 120 cases were cured through anti-infective therapy, 2 patients died of bacteria bloodstream infections, 1 patient died of sudden cardiac, and 1 patient died of GVHD after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. A total of 144 strains were isolated, including 108 strains (75.0%) of Gram-negative bacteria and 36 strains (25.0%) of Gram-positive cocci. The susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the carbapenems was 98.00%, and the adjustment treatment rate of carbapenems was 3.0%. The susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the other antibiotics was 60.30%, and the adjustment treatment rate was 90.5%. The susceptibility of Grampositive cocci to the carbapenems was 49.3%, and to glycopeptides and linezolid was 100.0%. Comparing all patients’empirical use of antimicrobial agents with the drugs susceptibility results of blood cultures, 80.1% of the patients’initial drug selection was sensitive.@*Conclusion@#The lymphoid neoplasms patients experienced bacteria bloodstream infections most often after receiving the chemotherapy regimens of treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The majority type of bacteria was Gram-negative bacteria. Drug susceptibility test showed that susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the carbapenems was the highest, and the treatment adjustment rate was obviously lower. The susceptibility of Gram-positive cocci to glycopeptides and linezolid was high, and which could be applied to the patients with Gram-positive cocci sepsis on basis of susceptibility results in general.
RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the outcomes of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for patients with aggressive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCLs) in advanced stage.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 25 patients in complete remission (CR) with aggressive PTCLs received ASCT from May 1997 to June 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>① Of the 25 cases, 16 were unspecified PTCL (PTCL-U), 4 with angioimmunoblastic T cell lymphoma (AITL), 3 with anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) and 2 with hepatosplenic T cell lymphoma (HSTL), with a median age of 30(12-54) years old. Ratio of male to female is 16∶9. The distribution of stages was 8 cases with stage Ⅲ and 17 patients with stage Ⅳ. Nine patients presented with bone marrow involvement. Before ASCT, 18 patients were in CR1 and 7 patients were in CR2. ②Two patients with HSTL in stage ⅣB and IPI score 4/5 in CR1 relapsed and died within 12 months after ASCT. At a median follow-up of 38 (range 14-110) months, the estimated 3-year probability of PFS and OS for the other 23 patients was (63.1 ± 10.5)% and (71.8 ± 9.9)%, respectively. The patients in first CR had a better survival than the patients in second CR. The 3-year probability of PFS were (74.9 ± 11.0)% vs (33.3 ± 19.2)% (P=0.092) and OS were (80.2 ± 10.4)% vs (50.0 ± 20.4)% (P=0.043), respectively. The 3-year probability of PFS and OS were (40.0 ± 17.4)% and (53.3 ± 17.3)% in bone marrow involvement patients and the corresponding figure were (77.9 ± 11.3)% and (84.4 ± 10.2)% in non- bone marrow involvement patients.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>ASCT could improve the survival of aggressive PTCLs. Non CR1 status and bone marrow involvement had negative influence on OS in patients with aggressive PTCLs treated by ASCT. The prognosis was very poor in patients with HSTL and satisfactory regimens should be investigated.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the treatment outcomes of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) as first-line treatment in patients with high risk lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) and compare the effect of different induction regimen on prognosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty LBL patients in complete remission received ASCT from 1996 to 2012 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1)Of the 30 patients, 25 were T-LBL and 5 B-LBL with a median age of 19(7-53) years old. Ratio of male to female is 23:7. Fourteen (46.7%) patients presented with bulky mediastinal masses and 15(50.0%) with bone marrow involvement. The distribution of stages was 2(6.7%), 5(16.7%) and 23 (76.6%)patients with stages II, III, and IV, respectively. The distribution according to age-adjusted international prognostic index (aaIPI) was 5(16.7%) patients in 1 score, 14(46.6%) in 2 scores and 11(36.7%) in 3 scores. (2)At a median follow-up of 32(range, 10-171) months, 17 patients were alive and 13 relapsed and died from LBL after ASCT. The estimated 5-year probability of DFS and OS was (50.4±10.7) % and (53.9 ±10.2)% for all the patients.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the efficacy of dose-intensive immunochemotherapy with or without autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for newly diagnosed young patients with medium/high risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The retrospective study was performed in 29 cases of young patients (≤ 60 years) with newly diagnosed DLBCL and an age-adjusted International Prognostic Index (aaIPI) score of 2 or 3. All of them were treated with dose-intensive regimens (DA-EPOCH or Hyper-CVAD/MA) combined with Rituximab and some were consolidated with first-line ASCT. The efficacy and the potential predictors were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The median age of 29 patients was 43 years old. Of them, 12 patients were consolidated with high-dose chemotherapy and ASCT. The complete remission (CR) rate was 69%, the partial remission (PR) rate 21% and the overall response rate 90%. After a median follow-up of 14 months, the estimated progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at two years were 64% and 70%, respectively. The median PFS and OS were significantly longer in CR patients than that in PR patients (P=0.015 and 0.061, respectively). Two patients achieved PR after induction therapy converted to CR after ASCT and were in continuous CR after follow-up above three years. In multivariate analysis, only bone marrow involvement (BMI) at diagnosis had an adverse influence in PFS (P=0.009), but not in OS. Based on whether there was BMI or not and the extent of BMI at diagnosis, the patients were divided into three groups as BM-0 (without BMI), BM-1 (the extent of BMI ≤ 10%) and BM-2 (the extent of BMI>10%). Patients in BM-2 group had significantly shorter PFS and OS than those in BM-0 and BM-1 groups (P=0.001 and 0.045, respectively). In multivariate analysis, the extent of BMI>10% was the independent poor prognostic factor for PFS and CNS relapse or prognosis.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Dose-intensive immunochemotherapy followed by ASCT or not has significant effect on efficacy of first-line treatment for young and untreated patients with medium/high risk DLBCL. The extent of BMI>10% at diagnosis is an independent risk factor associated with poor PFS and increased CNS relapse or progression.</p>
