The current role of interferon in hairy cell leukaemia: clinical and molecular aspects.
British Journal of Haematology 2021 July
We investigated the current role of interferon-alpha (IFNα) in hairy cell leukaemia (HCL) in a retrospective analysis of patients with HCL. A cohort of 74 patients with HCL was divided in to three groups: (A) patients aged >65 years with first-line treatment; (B) patients with comorbidities with first-line treatment; (C) patients who were purine analogues resistant. In total, 94% achieved a response, with a complete response rate of 24%. After a median (range) follow-up of 60 (7-236) months, 55 patients (78%) are still responding. The 5-year progression-free survival was 95%, 68%, and 96% in groups A, B and C respectively. A proportion of patients were monitored through their B-Raf proto-oncogene, serine/threonine kinase (BRAF)-V600E status. IFNα remains a possible option in select patients with HCL, where minimal residual disease negativity is achievable.
