Unrelated cord blood transplantation for childhood acute myeloid leukemia: a Eurocord Group analysis.

چکیده
Results of unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) in childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have not been previously reported. We analyzed 95 children receiving UCB transplants for AML (20 in first complete remission [CR1], 47 in CR2, and 28 in more advanced stage). Poor prognosis cytogenetic abnormalities were identified in 29 cases. Most patients received a 1 or 2 HLA antigens-mismatched UCB transplants. The median number of collected nucleated cells (NCs) was 5.2 x 107/kg. Cumulative incidence (CI) of neutrophil recovery was 78% +/- 4%, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 35% +/- 5%, and 100-day transplantation-related mortality (TRM) was 20% +/- 4%. In multivariable analysis, a collected NC dose higher than 5.2 x 107/kg was associated with a lower 100-day TRM. The 2-year CI of relapse was 29% +/- 5% and was associated with disease status. The 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 42% +/- 5% (59% +/- 11% in CR1, 50% +/- 8% in CR2, and 21% +/- 9% for children not in CR). Children with poor prognosis cytogenetic features had similar LFS compared with other patients (44% +/- 11% vs 40% +/- 8%). In CR2, LFS was not influenced by the length of CR1 (53% +/- 11% in CR1 < 9.5 months compared with 50% +/- 12% in later relapses). We conclude that UCBT is a therapeutic option for children with very poor-prognosis AML and who lack an HLA-identical sibling.

متن کاملUnrelated cord blood transplantation for adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia: higher incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease and lower survival in male patients transplanted with female unrelated cord blood—a report from Eurocord, the Acute Leukemia Working Party, and the Cord Blood Committee of the Cellular Therapy and Immunobiology Working Party of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation
BACKGROUND In the setting of allogeneic human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched bone marrow transplantation, transplanting male patients with grafts from female donors has been associated with a higher incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and of nonrelapse mortality (NRM). The aim of the current analysis was to compare transplantation outcomes in male patients given female unrelated cord...
متن کاملAnalysis of risk factors of cord blood transplantation for children.
BACKGROUND As cord blood (CB) is being used frequently as a source for heamtopoetic stem cell transplantation defining risk factors for transplantation outcome is an important issue. PROCEDURE The data of all single unit CB transplantation preformed in Israel from 1992 to 2011 were collected. The risk factors for myeloid engraftment, event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) were st...
متن کاملAcute Megakaryoblastic Leukemia Developing as Donor Cell Leukemia after Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation
A 64-year-old man with acute myeloid leukemia underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). After 11 months of complete remission (CR) following UCBT, the bone marrow showed 7.5% myeloblasts. CR was obtained after a single course of azacitidine monotherapy, but the myeloblasts gradually increased in the blood. We made a diagnosis of acute megakaryoblastic leukemia derived from donor ce...
متن کاملLineage Switch in Childhood Leukemia: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Acute leukemia which is the most common cancer in children is a heterogeneous group of clonal malignancies. The conversion of the leukemic cell lineage during the course of the disease or later is termed lineage switch. It has been rarely reported in the literature. In leukemia lineage switch, conversions from lymphoblastic leukemia to myeloid leukemia or vice versa are reported. Herein, we rep...
