Article Abstract

Objective: To investigate the therapy and efficacy after remission of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Methods: The clinical data of 110 patients diagnosed as AML treated from 2008 to 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. According to different consolidation therapy regimens, the patients were divided into 4 groups:1 ID-Ara-C group, 2 ID-Ara-C group, 3-4 ID-Ara-C group, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) group. The disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed retrospectovely.

Results: 110 patients were completely remittend by 1-2 couses. The median follow-up time was 26.8 months, 35 cases relapsed and 58 cases died, the median DFS and OS were 20.5 and 26.8 months. The 3-year DFS of 1, 2, 3-4 ID-Ara-C and allo-HSCT groups were 0%, 36.1%, 37.5% and 67.9% respectively. The 5-year DFS of 1, 2, 3-4 ID-Ara-C and allo-HSCT groups were 0%, 30.1%, 37.5% and 63.0%. The 3-year OS rates of 1, 2 ID-Ara-C groups, 3-4 ID-Ara-C group and allo-HSCT group were 24.0%, 36.0%, 58.3% and 67.8%. The 5-year OS of 1, 2 ID-Ara-C grous, 3-4 ID-Ara-C and allo-HSCT group were 24.0%, 36.0%, 58.3% and 67.8% respectively. The 5-year OS rates of 1 ID-Ara-C group, 2 ID-Ara-C group, 3-4 ID-Ara-C group were 0%,30.0%,35.0% and 62.9% respectively. The multifactor analysis indicated that the courses of ID-Ara-C and allo-HSCT were independent risk factors for DFS and OS.

Conclusion: ≥2 ID-Ara-C regimen may be used as one regimen of consolidation therapy for patients with AML after remission.

Background: Treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in elderly patients remains a great challenge. In this prospective single arm study (ChiCTR-OPC-15006492), we evaluated the efficacy and safety of a novel consolidation therapy with low-dose decitabine (LD-DAC) priming with intermediate-dose cytarabine (ID-Ara-C) followed by umbilical cord blood (UCB) infusion in elderly patients with AML.

Methods: A total of 25 patients with a median age of 64-years-old (60-74-years-old) who achieved complete remission (CR) after induction chemotherapy were enrolled in the study.

Objective: To explore the impact of courses of intermediate-dose cytarabine (ID-Ara-C) chemotherapy on the efficiency of hematopoietic stem cell mobilization in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT).

Methods: 90 patients with de novo AML undergoing auto-HSCT between August 1999 and November 2012 were enrolled. All patients received the mobilization regimen of cytarabine and etoposide chemotherapy in combination with recombinant human granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (rhG-CSF).

Patients with secondary acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) following treatment with alkylating agents and/or radiation show a poor response to standard induction therapy. Between 1983-1987 8 consecutive patients were treated with high-dose cytosine arabinoside (HD-ARA C; 3 g/sqm twice daily for 6 days) or intermediate-dose cytosine arabinoside (ID-ARA C; 0.5 g/sqm twice daily for 6 days).
