ABSTRACT
Background:
Patients with Refractory/Relapsed (RIR) acute leukemia (AL) have a poor prognosis.Objective:
We aimed to evaluate the chemotherapy regimen fludarabine, cytarabine, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and idarubicin (FLAG-IDA) in patients with RIR AL. Patients We studied 33 patients with R/R AL. Distribution of the AL subtype was myeloblastic n=17 (52%), lymphoblastic n=14 (42%),) and biphenotypic n=2 (6%).Results:
Complete remission (CR) was achieved in 15 cases (45.5%) and seven patients dead resulting in a mortality of 21.1%. In patients with hematological recovery the median time to neutrophils recovery (> 0.5 x 10º/1) was 24 days (range 10-38); platelet levels of more than 20 x 1Oº/l and 50 x 10º/1 were reached in a median time of 24 (range 17-44) and 27 days (range 18-51), respectively. After CR, five patients underwent allogeneic transplan- tation and 10 patients
