efficacy and safety of mtbf conditioning regimen for salvageable allo-hsct in the treatment of r/r aml

Conditions: Relapse Leukemia; Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia; Conditioning; Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Summary: the primary objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of mtbf conditioning regimen of salvageable allo-hsct in patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. the secondary purpose of the study was to observe the safety of mtbf regimen in these patients.

high-intensity conditioning regimen prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-hsct) can maximize the clearance of leukemia cells, but is often associated with increased pretreatment-related toxicity and transplant-related mortality. in order to enhance its anti-tumor effect without increasing or even decreasing its tissue toxicity, and then prolong the overall survival of aml patients, we optimized the conditioning regimen before allo-hsct transplantation: (1) the classical thiotepa/busulfan/fludarabine (tbf) regimen will be adopted to reduce the conditioning associated toxicity, ensure graft implantation to the maximum extent and reduce the recurrence rate; ② at the same time, mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome will be added to avoid the disadvantages of weak immunosuppressive effect and weak anti-leukemia effect, and mtbf pretreatment scheme will be finally explored. it has been applied in the pre-treatment of salvage allo-hsct in 3 patients with relapsed and refractory acute myeloid leukemia with good safety. up to the present follow-up time of 4 months, all 3 patients have disease free survival. to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this protocol, we intend to include more patients undergoing salvage allo-hsct for relapsed or refractory (r/r) aml.
