Pediatric Blood & Cancer 2009 October
A 15-year-old male with congenital HIV infection was diagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) at age 4 years 9 months. HIV was initially treated with zidovudine. For the last >10 years he has received didanosine, lamivudine, and nelfinavir. CML was treated with Interferon alfa (INF-alpha) for >10 years and a brief course of hydroxyurea (HU). He remained in chronic phase CML since diagnosis however recent molecular monitoring revealed increased BCR/ABL transcripts necessitating a change in therapy to imatinib. The very prolonged chronic phase of CML in this patient has been unexpected especially in light of the underlying congenital HIV infection.
