Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for adult patients with treatment-related acute myeloid leukemia during first remission: Comparable to de novo acute myeloid leukemia.
Leukemia Research 2016 August
Therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (T-AML) is associated with poor prognosis after conventional therapy. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) has been proposed as a treatment for T-AML; however, data comparing outcomes of transplants for patients with de novo AML and T-AML are limited. Sixteen adult patients with T-AML during first complete remission after malignant disease received allo-HCT at the Peking University Institute of Hematology between January 1, 2006 and December 31, 2014. Eighty patients with de novo AML were selected using the case-pair method. The 3-year overall survival and leukemia-free survival for T-AML versus de novo AML patients were 66% vs. 79% (P=0.14) and 64% vs. 77% (P=0.13), respectively. The 3-year cumulative non-relapse mortality rates for T-AML versus de novo AML patients were 13% vs. 9% (P=0.47), respectively; the relapse rates were 20% vs. 13% (P=0.25), respectively. Our results suggest that the prognosis of T-AML is comparable to that of de novo AML after transplantation. Although T-AML shows poorer prognosis than de novo AML after conventional therapies, allo-HCT can markedly improve the prognosis of T-AML.
