Abstrakt: | The main objective of this study was to compare the long-term health-related quality of life of patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) treated with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) plus arsenic trioxide (ATO) vs ATRA plus standard chemotherapy. Patients previously enrolled in the randomized controlled trial APL0406 were considered eligible for this follow-up study. The following patient-reported outcome measures were used: the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core30 (EORTC QLQ-C30), the EORTC Quality of Life Questionnaire Chemotherapy-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy 20 (QLQ-CIPN20), and the Short Form Health Survey 36 (SF-36). The prevalence of late comorbidities and health problems was also assessed. The clinical significance of differences was evaluated based on predefined thresholds. A total of 161 of 232 potentially eligible patients were analyzed, of whom 83 were treated with ATRA-ATO and 78 were treated with ATRA chemotherapy. The median time since diagnosis of the study sample was 8 years. The 2 largest clinically meaningful differences in the EORTC QLQ-C30 were observed for role functioning (Δ = 8.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.5 to 16.3) and dyspnea (Δ = -8.5; 95% CI, -16.4 to -0.7), favoring patients treated with ATRA-ATO. With regard to the SF-36 results, a clinically relevant better physical component score (Δ = 4.6; 95% CI, 1.3 to 7.8) was observed in patients treated with ATRA-ATO, but this was not the case for the mental component score. The 2 groups showed similar profiles in the scores of the EORTC QLQ-CIPN20 scales and in the prevalence of late comorbidities. Overall, our findings suggest that the greater and more sustained antileukemic efficacy of ATRA-ATO is also associated with better long-term patient-reported outcomes than ATRA chemotherapy.
