Successful Treatment of Behçet's Disease Associated with Acute Myeloid Leukemia with Myelodysplasia-related Changes Using Azacitidine and Tacrolimus before Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Internal Medicine 2017
The coexistence of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with Behçet's disease (BD) is rare. The optimum treatment for AML-associated BD has not been established. We herein report a patient with BD who developed AML with myelodysplasia-related changes. Induction chemotherapy caused complete remission of the AML but worsened the BD. Thereafter, AML was treated with azacitidine. The BD was steroid-dependent. Tacrolimus was added, which improved the BD. The patient underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and remains in complete remission for both diseases. Allogeneic HSCT was found to be a potent therapeutic option for AML-associated BD. In addition, azacitidine and tacrolimus were shown to be a suitable bridging regimen before HSCT.
