摘要
In this study,we compared the efficacy of mitoxantrone in combination with intermediate-dose cytarabine(HAM) with that of high-dose cytarabine alone(Hi DAC) as consolidation regimens in non-acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL) acute myeloid leukemia patients with favorable and intermediate cytogenetics.A total of 62 patients from Shenzhen People's Hospital were enrolled in this study.All patients enrolled received standard induction chemotherapy and achieved the first complete remission(CR1).In these patients,24 received Hi DAC and 38 received HAM as consolidation.The median relapse free survival(RFS) and overall survival(OS) were similar between these two consolidation regimens.Even in subgroup analysis according to risk stratification,the combination regimen conferred no benefit in longterm outcome in patients with favorable or intermediate cytogenetics.However,in patients receiving HAM regimen,the lowest neutrophil count was lower,neutropenic period longer,neutropenic fever rate higher,and more platelet transfusion support was required.HAM group also tended to have higher rate of sepsis than Hi DAC group.According to our results,we suggest that combination treatment with mitoxantrone and intermediate-dose cytarabine has limited value as compared to Hi DAC,even in young non-APL AML patients with favorable and intermediate cytogenetics.
