Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) for acute myeloid leukemia in patients in first complete remission after one versus two induction courses: A study from the ALWP of the EBMT.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Achieving complete remission (CR) is the main goal in AML treatment and a prerequisite for successful autologous stem cell transplantation (ACT).

Methods

Comparing results of peripheral blood ACT in patients with AML in CR1 attained following 1 versus 2 chemotherapy courses transplanted in 2000-2019.

Results

Patients 1532 (84%) with one and 293 (16%) patients with two induction chemotherapies courses (a total of 1825 patients) were included in the study. Follow-up was 7.9 (95% CI: 7.4-8.4) and 7.7 (95% CI: 7.0-8.6) years (p = 0.8). Time from diagnosis to ACT was 4.7 (range, 3.9-5.8) versus 5.7 (range, 4.7-7.1) months (p < 0.001), respectively. Leukemia free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) at 5 years were inferior for patients achieving CR1 with 2 versus 1 course of chemotherapy: 26.6% versus 41.7% (HR = 1.42 [95% CI: 1.22-1.66], p < 0.001) and 36.2% versus 53.3%, (HR = 1.48 [95% CI: 1.25-1.75], p < 0.001), and 5-year relapse incidence (RI) was higher: 67.2% versus 52.3%, (HR = 1.46 [95% CI: 1.25-1.72], p < 0.001). Five-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 6.2% versus 6.0% for patients with 2 versus 1 chemotherapy courses, and did not differ significantly (HR = 1.31 [95% CI: 0.81-2.10], p = 0.27).

Conclusions

LFS and OS were inferior and relapse rate was higher in AML patients who received two inductions chemotherapy courses to reach CR1 before being autografted. AML patients who required 2 induction courses to achieve remission, may be offered allogeneic transplantation rather than an autologous one in an attempt to reduce their high RI and improve outcomes.

Project description:We compared outcomes of adult patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) versus de novo AML after non-T-depleted haploidentical stem cell transplant (HaploSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). Seventeen hundred and eleven AML patients (sAML-231, de novo-1480) in first complete remission transplanted from 2010 to 2021, were included. Patients with de novo AML were younger, median age 55.8 versus 60.8 years, p < 0.0001, had better transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) ≥ 3 21.3% versus 40.8%, p < 0.0001 and Karnofsky performance status (KPS) with KPS ≥ 90 in 78% versus 68.5%, respectively, p = 0.002. The two patient groups did not differ with respect to gender, cytomegalovirus serostatus, and cell source. Median time from diagnosis to HaploSCT was 5.2 versus 4.9 months, respectively, p = 0.005. Fewer sAML patients received myeloablative conditioning 35.1% versus 50.1%, p < 0.0001. Two hundred and eleven sAML and 410 de novo AML patients were included in the matched-pair analysis matching two de novo AML with each sAML. No significant difference was observed in any transplantation outcome parameter between the sAML versus de novo AML groups. Two-year non-relapse mortality and relapse incidence did not differ with HaploSCT for de novo versus sAML; 21.4% versus 21%, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.98, p = 0.9 and 23.4% versus 20.6%, HR = 0.92, p = 0.67, respectively. Two-year leukemia-free survival, overall survival, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)-free, relapse-free survival were also not different between the de novo AML and sAML groups 55.2% versus 58.4%, HR = 0.95, p = 0.67; 61.4% versus 66.4%, HR = 0.91, p = 0.51 and 46.3% versus 48.2%, HR = 0.92, p = 0.48, respectively. Similarly, the incidence of engraftment as well as acute and chronic GVHD was similar between the 2 cohorts. In conclusion, HaploSCT with PTCy may be able to overcome the bad prognosis of sAML as results are not significantly different to those of HaploSCT in de novo AML.

Project description:BackgroundMultiple Myeloma (MM) is characterized by the presence of clonal plasma cells. These often result in complications including bone destruction, hypercalcemia, renal insufficiency, and anaemia. Induction with a triplet or quadruplet regimen followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been the standard of care for transplant eligible patients to achieve durable remission.PurposeThis is a retrospective analytical study to determine the outcome of Multiple Myeloma patients who underwent ASCT in Ampang Hospital.Materials and methodsWe included a 5-year cohort of patients transplanted from 1st July 2014 to 30th June 2019. Data were obtained through electronic medical records. Prognostic factors for progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed using simple and multiple Cox proportional hazard regression analysis. All analyses were done using software R version 3.6.2 with validated statistical packages.Results139 patients were analyzed. The median age at transplant was 56 years old and 56.1% are males (n＝78). The most common subtype is IgG Kappa (n＝67, 48.2%). Only 93 patients in which the International Staging System (ISS) could be determined, and among them, 33.3% of patients (n＝31) have advanced stage Ⅲ disease. The most common induction received before ASCT was a bortezomib based regimen and/or an immunomodulatory (IMiD) based regimen. 63.3% of patients achieved at least a very good partial response (VGPR) before ASCT. Most patients received myeloablative conditioning (MAC) (n＝119, 85.6%). The mean cell dose is 3.68×106/kg. The median time to engraftment was 11 days for both platelet and absolute neutrophil count (ANC). With the median follow-up of 17.3 (range, 6.2-33.4) months, the median OS and PFS were not reached. The 1-year and 2-year PFS were 75% (95% CI 66-82%) and 52% (95% CI 42-62%), respectively. The 1-year and 2-year OS were 82% (95% CI 74-88%) and 70% (95% CI 60-78%), respectively. 6 patients (4.3%) had transplant-related mortality (TRM). IgA subtype was found to adversely affect PFS. Maintenance therapy and the absence of renal impairment was associated with better PFS and OS.Discussion and conclusionsOur study found that ASCT following induction treatment is safe and beneficial to achieve a deeper remission status. In our study, the addition of maintenance therapy is associated with an improved outcome in PFS and OS.
