Popis: | All-trans retinoic acid (ATRA) and pre-upfront arsenic trioxide (ATO) have revolutionized the therapy of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). However, internal tandem duplication of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3-ITD) mutations is associated with increased risk of relapse. The aim of this study was to analyze the prognostic impact of FLT3-ITD on APL patients who received remission induction with ATRA, idarubicin (IDA) and/or ATO, followed by ATRA plus ATO along with anthracycline, as consolidation therapy. A total of 72 patients newly diagnosed with APL were included in this study. 83.3% of the patients achieved complete remission (CR) after induction therapy. FLT3-ITD mutations were detected in 16 (22.2%) patients and closely related to bcr-3 PML-RARa transcript (P |
