Long-Term Outcome of Fanconi Anemia Patients From the Italian Registry on Behalf of the Marrow Failure Study Group of the AIEOP (Italian Association for Pediatric Haematology-Oncology).

ABSTRACT: We analyzed 193 Fanconi anemia patients from the Italian Registry, focusing on hematological outcome, cancer risk, and mortality, both in transplanted (n = 130, 67.4% of the cohort) and non-transplanted (n = 63, 36.6% of the cohort) patients. After a median follow-up of 7 years, almost all patients developed cytopenia that was more frequent in patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The cumulative overall survival from birth was 91.0% at age 10 years, 71.6% at age 20, and 47.4% at age 30 years; the median survival age was 29.1 years. When stratifying patients by indication for transplantation (moderate vs. severe cytopenia vs. persistent poor prognosis cytogenetic alterations/acute myeloid leukemia), we found a 5-year cumulative mortality higher, though not signi
