Plasma Profiling of Acute Myeloid Leukemia With Fever- and Infection-Related Complications During Chemotherapy-Induced Neutropenia.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogenous and complex blood cancer requiring aggressive treatment. Early identification and prediction of the complications following treatment is vital for effective disease management.

Aims

We explored associations between plasma protein levels and fever- and infection-related complications in 26 AML patients during chemotherapy-induced neutropenia.

Material and methods

Longitudinal plasma profiling was conducted using data-dependent mass spectrometry analysis.

Results

Mass spectrometry-based plasma profiling data correlated well with laboratory parameters, including C-reactive protein, and revealed a broader inflammation protein network associated with fever- and infection-related complications.
