Haploidentical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia in first relapse after complete remission by standard induction chemotherapy / 中华器官移植杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of haploidentical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (Haplo-PBSCT) for acute myeloid leukemia in first relapse after complete remission by standard induction chemotherapy. Methods Eighty-nine cases of AML in first relapse after complete remission by standard DA/Hi-Ara-C regimens induction chemotherapy were evaluated retrospectively. Fiftythree cases were grafted by haplo-PBSCT and 26 cases were treated with iDA/Mid-Ara-C or MA/ Mid- Ara-C agents. Results The second remission rate in haplo-PBSCT group and continuous chemotherapy group was 86. 7 % (46/53 cases) and 38. 1% (9/23 cases) respectively (P＜0. 01). Survival postprogression (SPP) at 36th month was 43. 4 % (23/53 cases) in haplo-PBSCT group and 11.5 % (3/26 cases) in continuous chemotherapy group (P ＜ 0. 05). Conclusion Haplo-PBSCT could significantly increase the second remission rate and prolong the survival time of patients with acute myeloid leukernia in first relapse after complete remission by standard induction chemotherapy.
