PURPOSE: To determine if an intensive preparative regimen of busulfan (BU), cyclophosphamide (CY), and total-body irradiation (TBI) could improve outcome after marrow transplantation for advanced morphology myelodysplasia (refractory anemia with excess blasts [RAEB], RAEB in transformation [RAEB-T], and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia [CMML]) compared with that obtained with conventional CY/TBI and to analyze prognostic factors for transplantation for myelodysplasia. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A phase II study was conducted of 31 patients (median age, 41 years) treated with BU (7 mg/kg), CY (50 mg/kg), TBI (12 Gy), and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched (n = 23) or -mismatched (n = 2) related or unrelated donor (n = 6) marrow transplantation. Results were compared with 44 historical control patients treated with CY (120 mg/kg) and TBI. RESULTS: The 3-year actuarial disease-free survival (DFS) rate was similar for the BU/CY/TBI group and the CY/TBI group (23% v 30%, P = .6), but there were trends toward lower relapse rates (28% v 54%, P = .27) and higher nonrelapse mortality rates (68% v 36%, P = .12) among the current patients compared with historical controls. Multivariate analysis showed that a normal karyotype pretransplant and the use of methotrexate as part of posttransplant immunosuppression were associated with improved survival and reduced nonrelapse mortality. Univariate analysis showed significant differences in relapse rates based on marrow source (57% for HLA genotypically matched marrow v 18% for all others, P = .04) and on disease morphology (66% for RAEB-T v 38% for RAEB and CMML, P = .05). CONCLUSION: Patients with advanced morphology myelodysplasia tolerated the intensified BU/CY/TBI preparative regimen and reduced posttransplant immunosuppression poorly. Novel transplant procedures are needed to reduce relapse rates without increasing nonrelapse mortality rates. In addition, transplantation before progression to RAEB-T, if possible, may reduce the risk of relapse. 相似文献

Three intensive consolidation strategies are currently proposed to younger adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR): allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT) and intensive consolidation chemotherapy (ICC). Patients aged 15 to 50 years with de novo AML received an induction treatment with 7 days of cytarabine and either idarubicin or rubidazone. After achievement of a CR, patients up to the age of 40 and having an HLA-identical sibling were assigned to undergo an allogeneic BMT. All the other patients received a first course of ICC with high-dose cytarabine and the same anthracycline as for induction. They were then randomly assigned to either receive a second course of ICC with amsacrine and etoposide or a combination of busulfan and cyclosphosphamide followed by an unpurged autologous BMT. Of 517 eligible patients, 367 had a CR, but only 219 (59.5%) actually received the planned intensive postremission treatment (73 allogeneic BMT, 75 autologous BMT, and 71 ICC). With a median follow-up of 62 months, the 4-year disease-free survival (DFS) of the 367 patients in CR was 39.5%. The 4-year overall survival (OS) of the 517 eligible patients was 40.5%. In multivariate analysis, DFS and OS were influenced only by the initial white blood cell count and by the French-American-British classification. The type of postremission therapy had no significant impact on the outcome. There was no difference in the 4-year DFS and OS between 88 patients for whom an allogeneic BMT was scheduled (respectively, 44% and 53%) and 134 patients of the same age category and without an HLA-identical sibling (respectively, 38% and 53%). Similarly, there was no difference in the outcome between autologous BMT and ICC. The 4-year DFS was 44% for the 86 patients randomly assigned to autologous BMT and 40% for the 78 patients assigned to ICC (P = .41). The 4-year OS was similar in the two groups (50% v 54.5%, P = .72). The median duration of hospitalization and thrombocytopenia were longer after autologous BMT (39 v 32 days, P = .006, and 109.5 v 18.5 days, P = .0001, respectively). After a first course of ICC, a second course of chemotherapy is less myelotoxic than an unpurged autologous BMT but yields comparable DFS and OS rates. 相似文献

Intensive chemotherapy followed by autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) may provide an alternative therapy for young patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia following MDS (sAML) lacking a suitable donor. We report the results for 79 patients with MDS/sAML transplanted with autologous marrow in first complete remission (CR). Within the total group of 79, a cohort of 55 patients for whom the duration of first CR was known were compared with a matched control group of 110 patients with de novo AML. The 2-year survival, disease-free survival (DFS), and relapse rates for the 79 patients transplanted in first CR were 39%, 34%, and 64%, respectively. The relapse risk was greater than 55% for all stages and all disease categories. Patients younger than 40 years had a significantly (P = .04) better DFS (39%) than patients older than 40 years (25%). The DFS at 2 years was 28% for the cohort of 55 patients transplanted for MDS/sAML and 51% for those transplanted for de novo AML (P = .025). Relapse rates were 69% for patients with MDS/sAML and 40% for those with de novo AML (P = .007). ABMT for MDS or secondary leukemia results in a lower DFS when compared with similarly treated patients with de novo AML due to a higher relapse rate. The DFS of 28% for these patients suggests that autotransplantation may be a valuable therapy for this disease. The low treatment-related mortality rate of less than 10% supports the view that sufficient numbers of hematopoietic stem cells are present in patients with MDS to allow adequate repopulation after autologous stem-cell transplantation. 相似文献

Preparative regimens containing busulfan (BU) followed by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) were used in 27 consecutive patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The median age was 33 years (range, 4 to 54). Ten were female and 17 male. Sixteen patients had primary MDS, 11 other patients had antecedent hematologic diseases or developed MDS after cytotoxic and/or radiation therapy. Six patients had leukemic transformation and received antileukemic therapy before BMT. Pre-BMT cytogenetic studies showed complex chromosomal abnormalities in 13 patients, a simple abnormality in 5 patients, and normal chromosome in 8 patients. Three BU-based preparative regimens were used: 1 patient received BU 4 mg/kg orally (PO) daily for 4 days and cyclophosphamide (CY) 50 mg/kg intravenously (IV) daily for 4 days (BUCY-4); 24 patients received BU 4 mg/kg PO daily for 4 days, cytosine arabinoside (ara-C) 2 g/m2 IV every 12 hours for 4 doses, and CY 60 mg/kg IV daily for 2 days (BAC); and 2 patients with preceding Fanconi anemia received BU 2 mg/kg PO daily for 4 days followed by total lymphoid irradiation of 5 Gy. Seventeen of 27 patients are alive with no evidence of disease. Ten patients have died: 2 from hepatic veno-occlusive disease, 3 from sepsis, 1 from a cerebral bleed, 1 from a massive gastrointestinal (GI) bleed associated with acute graft-versus-host disease, 1 from hemolytic uremic syndrome with adult respiratory distress syndrome, 1 from bronchiolitis obliterans, and the only patient who did not engraft died from acute myeloid leukemia. Regimen-related toxicities (RRT) include GI tract (diarrhea, 14; stomatitis, 11), liver (9), cardiac (1), and skin (5). Patients who received a genotypically matched marrow graft had a significantly better disease-free survival (DFS) than patients who received a nongenotypic marrow graft (P = .02). The Kaplan-Meier analysis projects an overall DFS of 56% +/- 13% and 78% +/- 10% for patients who received a genotypically matched marrow graft. With the exception of a child who did not engraft, there was no relapse of MDS or leukemia. Excellent DFS, acceptable RRT, and the ease of administration are advantages of this regimen. 相似文献

Relapse after transplant for malignant lymphomas remains the main cause of treatment failure. Most conditioning regimens contain total body irradiation (TBI). We investigated the toxicity and efficacy of an intensified chemotherapy conditioning regimen without TBI in patients with relapsed or high-risk malignant lymphoma who had received prior radiation therapy and were therefore not eligible for TBI. Twenty patients with a median age of 38 (18-56) and relapsed or high-risk malignant non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL, n = 16) or Hodgkin's disease (HD, n = 4) underwent high-dose chemotherapy consisting of busulfan (16 mg/kg), cyclophosphamide (120 mg/kg) and etoposide 30 mg/kg (n = 8) or 45 mg/kg (n = 12) followed by peripheral stem cell support (n = 14), autologous bone marrow (n = 3), allogeneic (n = 2) or syngeneic (n = 1) transplantation. All but two had chemosensitive disease before high-dose chemotherapy. The main toxicity -- according to the Bearman score -- was mucositis II in 18 (90%) patients; five patients (25%) suffered a grade I hepatic toxicity. GI toxicity I occurred in three (15%) and renal toxicity I in two patients (10%). Sixty percent of the patients developed transient dermatitis with erythema and three of them (15%) had skin desquamation; one patient experienced asymptomatic pancreatitis. Toxicity was slightly higher in patients treated with 45 mg/kg etoposide. One patient (5%) died of treatment-related venoocclusive disease. After a median follow-up of 50 months (24-84) the disease-free and overall survival were 50% and 55%. One of the nine relapsing patients developed secondary AML 18 months after transplant. High-dose busulfan, cyclophosphamide and etoposide is an effective regimen resulting in long-term disease-free survival in 50% of patients with relapsed malignant lymphoma and prior radiation therapy. The toxicity is moderate with a low treatment-related mortality (5%). 相似文献

In the present paper, we evaluate tolerability, outcome and prognostic factors in patients with poor prognosis non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin's disease (HD) when uniformly treated with BCNU, etoposide, cytarabine and melphalan (BEAM) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). On hundred and forty-eight patients with NHL (n = 112) or HD (n = 36) received BEAM followed by infusion of bone marrow (n = 55), peripheral blood stem cells (n = 79) or both (n = 14). Twenty-eight patients had low-grade lymphoma (LGL), 68 intermediate- and 16 high-grade lymphoma (IGL). Within the NHL group, 21 patients were in 2nd or subsequent complete remission (CR) at transplant, 34 had sensitive disease and 11 resistant disease; 46 patients were transplanted in 1st CR due to the presence of > or = 2 adverse prognostic features at diagnosis or to a slow CR. Of the HD patients at transplant 17 had active disease, 16 were in > or = 2 CR and three in 1st CR. The overall percentage of toxic deaths was 5.4%, while in the group of patients transplanted with PBSC it was only 1.3%. NHL patients: 78% were in CR following ASCT, including 25 out of 45 patients (56%) who were transplanted with active disease. Only two of the 11 patients transplanted with resistant disease achieved CR. Incidence of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) at 3 years was 65 and 75%, respectively. As far as histology was concerned, OS was significantly better for patients with LGL in comparison with IGL (88 vs 56%) (P = 0.002). DFS was significantly higher for patients transplanted in first CR or first partial remission (PR) than it was for those transplanted in a later CR or PR (86 vs 53%) (P = 0.02). Multivariate analysis for OS showed that histology, bulky disease, poor performance status at transplant and achievement of CR were independent prognostic factors. In addition, a high number of infused MNC was associated with poor DFS. HD patients: 30 (83%) were in CR after transplantation, with 25 maintaining CR at the end of the study. Only one of the four patients transplanted with resistant disease reached CR. Incidence of OS and DFS at 3 years was 78 and 81%. DFS was similar for patients transplanted with early or late relapse (95 and 93%). With multivariate analysis, the only independent variable for OS was CR after transplant. In conclusion, the present results demonstrate the efficacy and low toxicity of the BEAM regimen in high-risk lymphoma patients with sensitive disease. Other strategies should be investigated for patients with refractory lymphoma. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Using high-dose therapy and autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) to overcome cellular resistance and eradicate minimal disease, we initiated a pilot study during first remission in patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) to examine whether the long-term disease-free survival (DFS) rate can be improved for patients with poor-prognosis intermediate/high-grade NHL. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Twenty-six patients with advanced-stage diffuse intermediate/high-grade B-cell NHL (including 16 patients with diffuse small cleaved-cell [DSC]) were selected at presentation by histologic and clinical characteristics to have less than a 25% probability of long-term DFS with conventional treatment. After induction chemotherapy, 16 patients were in complete remission (CR) and 10 were in a minimal disease state. Patients were then treated with high-dose cyclophosphamide, total-body irradiation (TBI), and anti-B-cell monoclonal antibody-purged ABMT. RESULTS: Following ABMT, no acute in-hospital treatment deaths occurred, and engraftment of granulocytes and platelets was significantly faster than for patients undergoing ABMT who were in second or subsequent remission. Of 26 patients, 21 remain in CR maintained without continued therapy, three relapsed in sites of prior nodal disease (4.8, 5.4, and 28 months post-ABMT), and two died in remission. The DFS rate is estimated to be 85% at 28 months and thereafter. The median follow-up period for the 21 patients who are alive and disease-free is 32 months. CONCLUSION: This pilot study suggests that consolidation of first remission with ABMT may improve the long-term DFS rate for diffuse intermediate/high-grade NHL patients at high risk for relapse. 相似文献

Clinical outcome of 47 consecutive patients with advanced HD who underwent ASCT in our Department was analyzed retrospectively. Median age was 28 years (28 males and 19 females). At transplant, 15 (32%) patients were in CR (five in first CR after two chemotherapy regimens and 10 in second CR), eight (17%) in PR (seven without a prior CR), 22 (51%) had relapsing disease (19 with sensitive relapse) and two had primary refractory disease. The CVB regimen with two different schedules was used: 22 (47%) patients received standard CBV (CY 6 g/m2, BCNU 300 mg/m2 and etoposide 600 mg/m2) and 25 (53%) received an increased CBV dose (CY 7.2 g/m2, BCNU 440 mg/m2 and etoposide 2 g/m2). Antitumor response for 28 evaluable patients was similar for both CBV regimens: 87 and 75% (P=0.39). At 7.2 years, actuarial overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and event-free survival (EFS) for the whole series were 51.7+/-8%, 34+/-9% and 28+/-8%, with a median follow-up for the surviving patients of 3 years (0.7-7.6). No differences in these survival functions according to the CBV regimen used were observed (P=0.57). A history of a prior CR (P=0.003), duration of first CR >1 year (P=0.04), absence of bulky nodal disease at transplant (P=0.054), absence of extranodal disease at transplant (P=0.01), and a CR status at transplant (P=0.0006) were associated with a better PFS on univariant analysis. On multivariate analysis, only CR status at transplant remained significant (P=0.05). When patients in second CR at transplant and those in first sensitive relapse were analyzed separately, no differences in clinical characteristics or in treatment received pretransplant were observed; however, PFS was significantly different (P=0.01). In conclusion, CR status at transplant is useful in identifying 'good risk' patients and is necessary to obtain the greatest benefit from ASCT independent of the CBV regimen used. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Diffuse and nodular forms of mantle-cell lymphoma (MCL) are consistently associated with poor prognosis. In an effort to improve the outcome, we adopted a treatment plan that consisted of four courses of fractionated cyclophosphamide (CY) 1,800 mg/m2 administered with doxorubicin (DOX), vincristine (VCR), and dexamethasone (Hyper-CVAD) that alternated with high-dose methotrexate (MTX) and cytarabine (Ara-C). After four courses, patients were consolidated with high-dose CY, total-body irradiation, and autologous or allogeneic blood or marrow stem-cell transplantation. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Forty-five patients were enrolled; 25 patients were previously untreated, 43 patients had Ann Arbor stage IV disease, and 42 patients had marrow involvement. Forty-one patients had diffuse histology, two patients had nodular, and two patients had blastic variants. RESULTS: Hyper-CVAD/MTX-Ara-C induced a response rate of 93.5% (complete response [CR], 38%; partial response [PR], 55.5%) after four cycles of pretransplantation induction chemotherapy. All patients who went on to undergo transplantation achieved CRs. For the 25 previously untreated patients, the overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates at 3 years were 92% (95% confidence interval [CI], 80 to 100) and 72% (95% CI, 45 to 98) compared with 25% (95% CI, 12 to 62; P = .005) and 17% (95% CI, 10 to 43; P = .007), respectively, for the previously treated patients. When compared with a historic control group who received a CY, DOX, VCR, and prednisone (CHOP)-like regimen, untreated patients in the study had a 3-year EFS rate of 72% versus 28% (P = .0001) and a better OS rate (92% v 56%; P = .05). Treatment-related death occurred in five patients: all were previously treated and two received allogeneic transplants. CONCLUSION: The Hyper-CVAD/MTX-Ara-C program followed by stem-cell transplantation is a promising new therapy for previously untreated patients with MCL. 相似文献

The influence of busulfan (BU) plasma concentration on outcome of transplantation from HLA identical family members for the treatment of chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) was examined in 45 patients transplanted in chronic phase (CP) (n = 39) or accelerated phase (AP) (n = 6). All patients received the same regimen of BU, 16 mg/kg orally and cyclophosphamide (CY), 120 mg/kg intravenously. Plasma concentrations of BU at steady state (C(SS)BU) during the dosing interval were measured for each patient. The mean C(SS)BU was 917 ng/mL (range, 642 to 1,749; median, 917; standard deviation, 213). Of patients with C(SS)BU below the median, seven (five of 18 in CP and two of four in AP) developed persistent cytogenetic relapse and three of these patients died. There were no relapses in patients with C(SS)BU above the median. The difference in the cumulative incidence of relapse between the two groups was statistically significant (P = .0003). C(SS)BU was the only statistically significant determinant of relapse in univariable or multivariable analysis. The 3-year survival estimates were 0.82 and 0.64 for patients with C(SS)BU above and below the median (P = .33). There was no statistically significant association of C(SS)BU with survival or nonrelapse mortality, although the power to detect a difference in survival between 0.82 and 0.64 was only 0.24, similarly C(SS)BU above the median was not associated with an increased risk of severe regimen-related toxicity. We conclude that low BU plasma levels are associated with an increased risk of relapse. 相似文献

Between 1985 and 1990, 133 patients with advanced multiple myeloma (MM) (74% resistance; 41% resistant relapse, RR) were treated with five high-dose therapy (HDT) regimens including: melphalan < or =100 mg/m2 (MEL 100) (46 patients); MEL 100 plus GM-CSF (24 patients); MEL 140 plus autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) (eight patients); MEL 140 plus TBI 850 cGy plus ABMT (37 patients); and thiotepa 750 mg/m2 (THIO 750) + TBI 850 cGy plus ABMT (18 patients). The median follow-up of alive patients as of December 1997 was 9 years. Overall, 17% experienced treatment-related mortality within 60 days (TRM) and 12% achieved stringently defined complete remission (CR) with a median duration of 16 months; four of 16 patients (25%) remain in CR at 10 years. The median durations of event-free survival (EFS)/overall survival (OS) were 6/15 months. Superior EFS/OS were noted with MEL 100 plus GM-CSF and the two TBI-containing regimens (9/24 months among 79 patients) compared to the remaining 54 patients receiving MEL < or =100 or MEL 140 plus ABMT (3/5 months) (P = 0.0001/0.0001, respectively). Multivariate regression analyses (MVA) were performed so that, despite patient heterogeneity among the five treatment groups, potentially relevant disease, host, treatment, and supportive care variables could be identified that were associated with TRM, CR, EFS and OS. TRM was higher with creatinine >2.0 mg/dl, absence of ABMT/GM-CSF support and age >50 years; CR was superior with TBI-containing regimens and < or =12 months of prior therapy; EFS and OS both were longer with B2M < or =2.5 mg/l, age < or =50 years, absence of RR and with ABMT/GM-CSF support. In the presence of >2 favorable variables (32 % of patients), median EFS/OS durations of 18/48 months were observed which progressively declined with 2 and <2 favorable parameters to 6/11 months (28% of patients) to 3/5 months (40% of patients) (P = 0.0001/0.0001). At 10 years, 10 and 20% of patients with >2 favorable variables were event-free and alive, which was also true for the 37 patients receiving MEL 140 plus TBI. To appreciate possible long-term contributions of supportive care or treatment intensity, landmark analyses performed at 1, 2, 4 and 6 months revealed virtually identical ranking orders of prognostically favorable variables to those seen pre-HDT; once supportive care was accounted for, regimen intensity with added TBI did not emerge as an independent favorable feature. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of moderate-dose total abdominopelvic irradiation (TAI) in a retrospective series of pretreated non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). METHODS AND MATERIALS: From 1977 to 1994, 45 patients received TAI after failure of chemotherapy (CT). According to the Working Formulation, 10 patients were diagnosed with class A (group I), 19 with class B, C, or D (follicular) (group II), and 16 with class E or more severe (group III) NHL. Irradiation consisted of two daily fractions of 0.80 Gy each for a total dose of 20 Gy. RESULTS: Mean follow-up after TAI was 102 months (range 8-156). For the entire group, the complete response (CR) rate was 66%, the partial response (PR) rate 29%, 10-year overall survival (OS) 35%, 10-year disease-free survival (DFS) 29%, and median survival 32 months. When results between subgroups were compared, CR was 70% in group I, 84% in group II, and 44% in group III; and survival was statistically higher in group II than in groups I and III: 10-year OS 52% vs. 10% (p < 0.01) and 31% (p < 0.05), respectively, 10-year DFS 37% vs. 10% (p < 0.03) and 19% (p < 0.05), respectively. Grade III or IV complications were gastrointestinal in 27% of patients and hematologic in 25%. CONCLUSION: Large-field irradiation in moderate doses could provide an alternative to bone marrow transplantation in refractory NHL, especially in cases showing a follicular growth pattern. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To evaluate in a prospective study the efficacy of autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in adult patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) in first remission, using a single course of high-dose Cytarabine (HD Ara-C) consolidation therapy as in vivo purging. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Sixty consecutive adult patients with AML in first complete remission (CR) were treated with HD Ara-C consolidation therapy as a method of in vivo purging before marrow collection. High-dose therapy consisted of fractionated total-body irradiation (FTBI) 12 Gy, intravenous etoposide 60 mg/kg, and cyclophosphamide 75 mg/kg, followed by reinfusion of cryopreserved marrow. RESULTS: Sixty patients underwent consolidation treatment with HD Ara-C with the intent to treat with autologous BMT. Sixteen patients were unable to proceed to autologous BMT (10 patients relapsed, one died of sepsis, one developed cerebellar toxicity, two had inadequate blood counts, and two refused). Forty-four patients underwent autologous BMT and have a median follow-up time of 37 months (range, 14.7 to 68.7) for patients who are alive with no relapse. The cumulative probability of disease-free survival (DFS) at 24 months in the intent-to-treat group is 49% (95% confidence interval [CI], 37% to 62%) and in those who actually underwent autologous BMT is 61% (95% CI, 46% to 74%). The probability of relapse was 44% (95% CI, 31% to 58%) and 33% (95% CI, 20% to 49%) for the intent-to-treat and autologous BMT patients, respectively. CONCLUSION: This approach offers a relatively high DFS rate to adult patients with AML in first CR. The results of this study are similar to those achieved with allogeneic BMT. 相似文献

The results of an intensive treatment program for patients 16-60 yr of age with de novo acute myeloid leukemia are presented. The patients were given conventional induction treatment with daunorubicin and cytarabine. Patients not entering complete remission (CR) after 1 course of daunorubicin/cytarabine were given 1 course of amsacrine/etoposide/cytarabine. Those entering complete remission received 3 consolidation courses using mitoxantrone, etoposide, amsacrine and cytarabine. One hundred and eighteen patients were enrolled. Complete remission was attained after 1-2 courses in 90 patients (76%). Another 6 patients reached CR after 3-4 induction courses for a total CR rate of 81%. If feasible, patients were offered either allogeneic or unpurged autologous bone marrow transplantation. Twenty-four patients underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation; 15 in first remission, 8 in second remission, 1 in early relapse. Thirty patients below 56 yr of age underwent autologous bone marrow transplantation in first remission. The overall probability of survival at 4 yr was 34%, and for patients below 40 yr of age 50%. Leukemia-free survival was 35% for the whole cohort of patients; 52% for patients below 40 yr of age. Patients undergoing allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation in first remission had an overall survival of 86% and 47%, respectively, while the probability of leukemia-free survival in these groups was 87% vs. 40% at 4 yr. The CR rate and long-term results of this intensive treatment program compare favorably with other recent studies using intensive consolidation with allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation or high dose cytarabine. 相似文献

Patients with newly diagnosed acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) with persistent leukemia after their first course (CO1) of induction chemotherapy are generally given a second similar course, although their outcome is known to be worse than CO1 responders even when a complete remission (CR) is achieved. To identify specific patients who should or should not receive a second induction course identical to the first we analyzed outcome in 370 patients with persistent AML after CO1 who received a second identical course. One hundred and forty-two (38%) achieved CR on this course; median subsequent disease-free survival (DFS) in these 142 was 29 weeks and 10% were alive in CR at 5 years. The 5-year DFS of CO2 responders was significantly lower than that of CO1 responders (10 vs 24%, P < 0.001). Logistic regression identified pretreatment cytogenetic abnormalities (except inv 16, t(8;21), or t(15;17)), presence of an antecedent hematologic disorder or secondary AML as each having unfavorable prognostic import similar to the case in untreated patients. Treatment with "high-dose' rather than standard-dose cytarabine increased the probability of 2nd course CR. The occurrence of pneumonia, sepsis, or major hemorrhage were prognostically unfavorable, primarily in the high-dose cytarabine group, and, once in CR, DFS was shorter in this group. Equations predicting probability of 2nd course CR were derived. If validated prospectively these could be used to assign patients to either receive a second course of initial induction therapy or to change to salvage or investigational therapy after the first course. Alternatively, they could be used to stratify patients entering a prospective randomized trial comparing these two strategies. 相似文献

To determine whether patients with a HLA-identical sibling donor have a better outcome than patients without a donor, an analysis on the basis of intention-to-treat principles was performed within the framework of the EORTC-GIMEMA randomized phase III AML 8A trial. Patients in complete remission (CR) received one intensive consolidation course. Patients with a histocompatible sibling donor were then allocated allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (alloBMT), the patients without a donor were randomized between autologous BMT (ABMT) and a second intensive consolidation (IC2). 831 patients <46 years old and alive >8 weeks from diagnosis were included. HLA typing was performed in 672 patients. AlloBMT was performed during CR1 in 180 (61%) out of 295 patients with a donor. Another 38 patients were allografted: five in resistant disease, 14 during relapse and 19 in CR2. ABMT was performed in 130 (34%) out of 377 patients without a donor in CR1, in six (2%) patients during relapse and in 38 (10%) patients during CR2. The disease-free survival (DFS) from CR for patients with a donor was significantly longer than for patients without a donor (46% v 33% at 6 years; P=0.01, RR 0.78, 95% confidence interval 0.63-0.96). The overall survival from diagnosis for patients with a donor was longer, but not statistically significant, than for patients without a donor (48% v 40% at 6 years; logrank P=0.24). When patients were stratified according to prognostic risk groups, the same trend in favour of patients with a donor was seen for survival duration and the DFS remained significantly longer for this group of patients. 相似文献

Attempts to improve the efficacy of pretransplant conditioning regimens have been published, the potential of a better antileukemic effect being impaired by more frequent and severe toxicities. The efficacy of an intensified regimen, TAM (TBI, high-dose cytosine arabinoside and melphalan), is evaluated by analyzing long-term follow-up of a homogenous group of 42 high-risk ALL patients allografted in first CR. Age at time of BMT was 25.9 +/- 10.4 years (3-41). Twenty-two patients had more than three adverse prognostic factors. Ten patients had a Ph chromosome. Probability of overall survival was 45 +/- 9%, and for all surviving patients median follow-up time was 66 months. Event-free survival was 40 +/- 8% at 7 years after transplantation and the expected relapse rate reached 31%. Twenty-two deaths occurred, six after a relapse but 16 appeared to be directly due to the BMT procedure. None of the pretransplant characteristics significantly affected outcome after BMT. TAM appeared to be an efficient antileukemic therapy for conditioning high-risk ALL patients before allogeneic transplantation, but was still very toxic. The use of TAM in adult ALL patients in first CR is not recommended and the real role of intensified conditioning regimens remains to be demonstrated. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Advances in bone marrow transplantation (BMT) have consistently improved long-term survival. Therefore, evaluation of late complications such as cataracts is of paramount importance. METHODS AND MATERIALS: We analyzed data of 2149 patients from the EBMT registry. A cohort of 1063 patients were evaluable for survival and ophthalmologic status after transplant for acute leukemia (AL) in first or second complete remission. Conditioning therapy included either single-dose total body irradiation (STBI) or fractionated TBI (FTBI) grouped in different dose rates (low: LDR < or = 0.04 Gy/min; high: HDR > 0.04 Gy/min). RESULTS: The overall 10-year estimated cataract incidence (ECI) was 50%. It was 60% in the STBI group, 43% in the FTBI group < or = 6 fractions, and 7% in the FTBI group > 6 fractions (p < 10(-4)). It was significantly lower (30%) in the LDR than in the HDR groups (59%;p < 10(-4)). Patients receiving heparin for veno-occlusive disease prophylaxis had fewer cataracts than those who did not (10-year ECI: 33% vs. 53%, respectively;p = 0.04). The 10-year ECI was 65% in the allogeneic vs. 46% in the autologous BMT patients (p = 0.0018). Factors independently associated with an increased risk of cataract were an older age (> 23 years), higher dose rate (> 0.04 Gy/min), allogeneic BMT, and steroid administration (> 100 days). The use of FTBI was associated with a decreased risk of cataract. Heparin administration was a protective factor in patients receiving STBI. In terms of cataract surgery, the unfavorable factors for requiring surgery were: age > 23 yr, STBI, dose rate > 0.04 Gy/min, chronic graft-vs.-host disease (cGvHD), and absence of heparin administration. Among the patients who required cataract surgery (111 out of 257), secondary posterior capsular opacification was observed in 15.7%. CONCLUSION: High dose rate and STBI are the main risk factors for cataract development and the need for surgery, and the administration of heparin has a protective role in cataractogenesis. 相似文献

Prognostic factors to identify patients with high-risk non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) have recently been developed. We retrospectively investigated the relation between prognostic factors and treatment outcome after autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT). From 1984 to 1994, 80 consecutive patients with NHL responding slowly to or relapsing after front-line therapy were treated with high-dose chemotherapy and ABMT. Prognostic factors at the time of diagnosis and of ABMT were related to clinical outcome after ABMT. The cumulative 5-year overall survival (OS) was 51%, progression-free survival (PFS) 41%, and relapse-free survival (RFS) 53%. Absence of B symptoms and intermediate-grade malignancy at first presentation of disease were independently related to prolonged OS (P = 0.02 and P < 0.01, respectively) and prolonged PFS (P = 0.005 and P = 0.01, respectively). At the time of ABMT, first PR or CR, normal LDH levels and tumour stage I + II were associated with prolonged OS (P = 0.0005, P = 0.03 and P = 0.004, respectively). A Coiffier index of 0 or 1, first PR or CR and no extranodal disease involvement were related to prolonged PFS (P = 0.0002, P = 0.005 and P = 0.07, respectively). Treatment-related deaths occurred in 10% of patients. Assessment of disease status, LDH level, tumour stage, extranodal disease involvement and Coiffier index at the time of ABMT is respectively efficient in predicting treatment outcome after ABMT. 相似文献
