Abstract

The clinical value of imaging is well established for the follow-up of many lymphoid malignancies but not for chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). A meta-analysis was performed with the dataset of 3 German CLL Study Group phase 3 trials (CLL4, CLL5, and CLL8) that included 1372 patients receiving first-line therapy for CLL. Response as well as progression during follow-up was reassessed according to the National Cancer Institute Working Group1996 criteria. A total of 481 events were counted as progressive disease during treatment or follow-up. Of these, 372 progressions (77%) were detected by clinical symptoms or blood counts. Computed tomography (CT) scans or ultrasound were relevant in 44 and 29 cases (9% and 6%), respectively. The decision for relapse treatment was determined by CT scan or ultrasound results in only 2 of 176 patients (1%). CT scan results had an impact on the prognosis of patients in complete remission only after the administration of conventional chemotherapy but not after chemoimmunotherapy. In conclusion, physical examination and blood count remain the methods of choice for staging and clinical follow-up of patients with CLL as recommended by the International Workshop on Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia 2008 guidelines. These trials are registered at http://www.isrctn.org as ISRCTN 75653261 and ISRCTN 36294212 and at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00281918.

Abstract

PubMed ID: 12829583, Several studies have compared bone marrow (BM) and peripheral blood (PB) as stem cell sources in patients receiving allografts, but the cell doses infused have not been considered, especially for BM. Using the ALWP/EBMT registry, we retrospectively studied 881 adult patients with acute myelocytic leukemia (AML), who received a non-T-depleted allogeneic BM (n = 515) or mobilized PB (n = 366) standard transplant, in first remission (CR1), from an HLA-identical sibling, over a 5-year period from January 1994. The BM cell dose ranged from 0.17 to 29 × 10 8 /kg with a median of 2.7 × 10 8 /kg. The PB cell dose ranged from 0.02 to 77 × 10 8 /kg with a median of 9.3 × 10 8 /kg. The median dose for patients receiving BM (2.7 × 10 8 /kg) gave the greatest discrimination. In multivariate analyses, high-dose BM compared to PB was associated with lower transplant-related mortality (RR = 0.61; 95% CI, 0.39-0.98; P = .04), better leukemia-free survival (RR = 0.65; 95% CI, 0.46-0.91; P = .013), and better overall survival (RR = 0.64; 95% CI, 0.44-0. 92; P = .016). The present study in patients with AML receiving allografts in first remission indicates a better outcome with BM as compared to PB, when the dose of BM infused is rich. © 2003 by The American Society of Hematology.

Abstract

In order to assess the prognostic value of inhibitory anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies in thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), we performed a multicentre prospective study of 33 adult patients with idiopathic acquired TTP. Patients were treated with high-dose plasma infusion and therapeutic plasma exchange. Patients without (group 1, n = 12) and with (group 2, n = 21) detectable inhibitory anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies were compared for clinical presentation, treatment and outcome. Both groups were comparable for clinical presentation. All patients in group 1 achieved a sustained complete remission within a median of 7 d [95% confidence interval (CI), 4–18], which required a median plasma volume of 235 ml/kg (range, 131–1251). In group 2, 17 patients achieved a durable complete remission within a median of 23 d (95% CI, 11–32) ( P = 0·001). Median plasma volume was 718 ml/kg (range, 219–3107) ( P = 0·02). In group 2, there was a trend for more episodes of flare-up than in group 1 (13 vs. 3, respectively, P = 0·07). Four patients, all from group 2, died ( P = not significant). The relapse rate was comparable between both groups. We suggest that TTP with detectable inhibitory anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies displays a worse prognosis, relative to a delayed platelet count recovery, a higher plasma volume requirement to achieve complete remission, and a trend for more frequent episodes of flare-up.

Abstract

First results of a randomized trial (APL91 trial) and other randomized or non-randomized studies have shown that ATRA followed by chemotherapy significantly increased event-free survival (EFS) and survival, and decreased the incidence of relapse by comparison to chemotherapy alone in newly diagnosed APL. We present here long-term follow-up of the APL91 trial. In this trial, 101 patients had been randomized between ATRA followed by three courses of daunorubicin-AraC chemotherapy (ATRA group) and the same chemotherapy alone (chemotherapy group). Results were reanalyzed 73 months after closing of patient entry. Updated results of APL 91 trial found a Kaplan-Meier estimate of EFS and relapse rate at 4 years of 63% and 31% in the ATRA group, as compared to 17% and 78% in the chemotherapy group (P= 10(-4) and relative risk 2.95, P= 10(-4) and relative risk 3.68, respectively). Kaplan-Meier survival at 4 years was 76% in the ATRA group and 49% in the chemotherapy group (P= 0.026, relative risk 2.7). In the chemotherapy group, seven of the 27 relapses occurred after 18 months, but no relapse was seen after 43 months. In the ATRA group, four of the 17 relapses occurred after 18 months, including two late relapses (at 58 and 74 months). In the chemotherapy group, 23 of the 25 patients who relapsed achieved a second CR with ATRA, and the Kaplan-Meier estimate of second relapse was 40% at 30 months. In the ATRA group, the 10 patients who relapsed and were retreated with ATRA achieved a second CR. In conclusion, long-term results of APL91 trial confirm the superiority of the combination of ATRA and chemotherapy over chemotherapy alone in newly diagnosed APL, and that ATRA should be incorporated in the front-line treatment of APL.

Abstract

705 children and adults patients with de novo acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia were entered from 1981 to 1989 into 2 prospectives multicenter trials: 01AM81 and 01AM86. They received an intensive induction course with Rubidazone 200 mg/sqm/day x 4 days and cytosine arabinoside 200 mg/sqm/day x 7 days, then 3 consolidation courses at outpatients, and a maintenance treatment. Total duration of therapy was 3 years. The overall complete remission rate was 80%. The median overall survival time was 19 months and the 5-year survival rate is 26%. The median remission duration for the 568 remitters was 18 months and the 5-year first remission rate is 30%. Prognostic factors for the remission rate were age, initial leukocytosis, FAB subtype. Prognostic factors for remission duration were the delay until CR, initial leukocytosis and karyotype.
