Popis: | 10533 Background: Despite advances in risk stratification and therapy, the post-induction disease free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) for children with low-risk acute myeloid leukemia (LR-AML) remain low with DFS and OS of 50% and 68%, respectively, on the standard arm of the recent Children’s Oncology Group (COG) trial, AAML1031. Additionally, current therapy for pediatric LR-AML contains anthracycline doses exceeding thresholds known to increase the risk of adverse cardiac effects. In an effort to decrease exposure to cardiotoxic therapy, the Aflac Cancer and Blood Disorders Center adopted an institutional practice to treat LR-AML patients with a regimen of intensified induction therapy with decreased anthracycline exposure (Aflac-AML consisting of ADE10, Mitox/HiDAC, HiDAC/VP, Capizzi II). The aim of this study is to describe the associated toxicities and outcomes of this regimen in pediatric LR-AML. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records of patients diagnosed with de novo LR-AML and treated per the Aflac-AML regimen from 2011-2014. Charts were reviewed for cardiac outcomes, ICU admissions, and the rate of infectious toxicities. DFS and OS were determined using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Results: We identified 11 LR-AML patients treated with Aflac-AML therapy. Patients received a planned 317 mg/m2 cumulative anthracycline dose vs 442 mg/m2for those treated on AAML1031. There was no decrease in LVEF with a mean change of +2.17% for Aflac-AML patients from the time of diagnosis to therapy completion (p = 0.23). The primary infectious toxicities observed were febrile neutropenia and bacterial infections with a median of 36.4±6% documented bacterial infections per cycle. Fungal and viral infections were rare as were ICU admissions – median 4.5±4% per cycle – and there were no toxic mortalities. The 3-year DFS and OS from end of induction I for Aflac-AML patients were 72.7% and 90.9%, respectively. Conclusions: The Aflac-AML regimen resulted in short-term toxicities and outcomes comparable to current chemotherapy regimens for pediatric LR-AML but with reduced anthracycline exposure. These data support use of this regimen for pediatric LR-AML patients. |
