A 41-year-old man with untreated acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) was treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) 80mg/body/day per os. Complete remission was reached in 16 day without bone marrow hypoplasia and aggravated disseminated intravascular coagulation. The chromosomal abnormality, t (15;17), which presented before therapy has not been found since the 29th day of therapy. During the course of induction therapy with ATRA, there was no complication worth of mentioning. Induction therapy with ATRA is thought to be more effective and safer than conventional chemotherapy to attain complete remission in APL. The complete remission has been maintained for 11 months with conventional postremission chemotherapy.  相似文献

All-trans retinoic acid has been used for the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) with encouraging results. However, it has recently been associated with a number of potentially serious complications including the retinoic acid syndrome. We describe two patients with APL who were begun on all-trans retinoic acid therapy (45 mg/m2), but who developed leukocytosis which was treated with hydroxyurea. Both patients demonstrated clinical and laboratory findings of disseminated intravascular coagulation, massive cell lysis manifested by marked increases in serum lactic dehydrogenase, and rapid clinical deterioration. Both patients developed bone marrow necrosis within viable, non-infarcted bone trabeculae. We postulate that the development of bone marrow necrosis in these two patients was not a chance occurrence. Rather, the specific combination of cytotoxic and differentiating agents used in these patients (hydroxyurea with all-trans retinoic acid) caused massive cell lysis and death. The absence of bone marrow necrosis in the setting of induction therapy for APL both with and without all-trans retinoic acid therapy suggests that the addition of hydroxyurea was critical to the development of marrow necrosis. We, therefore, recommend caution in the use of hydroxyurea and all-trans retinoic acid in the treatment of APL. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Seven patients experiencing first (n = 5) or second (n = 2) relapse of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) were treated with a new synthetic retinoid, Am-80. All 7 patients were previously treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). Am-80 was orally administered at a dose of 6 mg/m2 daily. Chemotherapy was combined in 3 patients because of leukocytosis. All 7 patients achieved a complete remission (CR) during periods ranging from 36-56 days (median 52 days). Adverse effects such as hyperlipidemia and skin lesions, were tolerable. After achieving CR, 3 patients underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and 4 patients received only consolidation chemotherapy. In 2 of 3 patients who received allogeneic transplantation, relapse free survival has lasted for 9.7 and 28.3 months. Furthermore, in 2 of 4 patients who received only chemotherapy, relapse free survival has lasted for 84.7 and 90.1 months. Am-80 is an active agent for APL patients who have relapsed from ATRA-induced remission.  相似文献

Some cases of acute myeloid leukemia following organ transplant (PT-AML) have been published in the literature. We report the second case of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), which developed post-transplant and immunosuppressive treatment, in a 50-year-old male who had undergone a renal transplant. At diagnosis he presented typical t(15;17)(q12;q13) with additional abnormalities, including +8,t(13;22)(q12;q13) and an abnormal chromosome 1 which was better characterized by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). He obtained cytological, karyotypic and molecular complete remission (CR) with induction treatment according to the all-trans retinoic acid + idarubican (AIDA) protocol; after 12 months, he relapsed (molecular relapse) and achieved molecular remission with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) plus mitoxantrone and cytosine arabinoside. After a further 14 months, he was treated with arsenic trioxide for cytological relapse and obtained a third CR; at the cytological relapse the karyotype showed 47,XY,+8, t(15;17)(q22;q21),t(13;22)(q12;q13),der(22)t(1;22)(p22;q13). He is alive 3.3 years after diagnosis of APL. Cyclosporin A (CsA) was given during all cycles of chemotherapy. We did not observe any severe infections or kidney failure during treatments. The use of conventional cytogenetic analysis plus FISH may identify complex karyotype also in transplanted patients receiving immunotherapy, and may also contribute to a better assessment of PT-AL.  相似文献

We encountered a 12-year-old girl with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) that occurred 21 months after a living donor partial orthotopic liver transplantation from her father for ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency. FK-506 had been administered for prophylaxis against graft-versus-host reaction. The bone marrow specimen revealed a massive infiltration of promyelocytic blasts (M3 by FAB classification) with chromosome 46, XX, t (15; 17) (q22; q12), being the recipient origin. A PML/RAR alpha chimeric gene was detected by RT-PCR. The patient was diagnosed as having APL and successfully induced to complete remission by chemotherapy including daunorubicin (DNR), cytarabine (araC), and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). She has been in continuous remission for 12 months after the treatment. Leukemia after liver transplantation is generally taken as a rare complication. However, recent advances in the survival rate of patients who have undergone liver transplantation will lead to an increase of such cases.  相似文献

It has been shown that arsenic trioxide (As2O3) may induce hematologic remissions in patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) refractory to all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA). We reported on a patient with ATRA and drug-resistant APL that was successfully treated with As2O3. The patient had been given a diagnosis of typical APL and was treated with ATRA and chemotherapy for 12 months. He achieved complete remission (CR), but leukemia relapsed with 43% APL cells in the bone marrow in the 16th month of treatment. ATRA and cytarabine plus daunorubicin were administered; however, the APL cells in the bone marrow increased to 97.2%. As2O3 was initiated intravenously, and bone marrow showed a decrease of APL cells (6.7%) and a partial differentiation after 9 days. The patient received idarubicin (IDA) and steroid pulse because of the development of ATRA-like syndrome, and achieved CR 37 days after the initiation of As2O3. He received an additional 2 courses of As2O3 with IDA, and is in CR. These results demonstrated the therapeutic efficacy of As2O3 in treating ATRA and drug-resistant APL.  相似文献
