Abstract Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is not a standard treatment option for Philadelphia chromosome‐positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ALL); however, its position has been reassessed since the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). We prospectively analyzed the efficacy and safety of autologous peripheral blood SCT (auto‐PBSCT) for Ph+ALL patients aged between 55 and 70 years who had achieved complete molecular remission. Melphalan, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, and dexamethasone were used for conditioning. A total of 12 courses of maintenance therapy, including dasatinib, were performed. The required number of CD34+ cells was harvested in all five patients. No patient died within 100 days after auto‐PBSCT, and no unexpected serious adverse events were observed. Although 1‐year event‐free survival was 100%, hematological relapse was observed in three patients at a median of 801 days (range, 389–1088 days) after auto‐PBSCT. Molecular progressive disease was observed in the other two patients, although they maintained their first hematological remission at the last visit. Auto‐PBSCT can be safely performed for Ph+ALL with TKIs. A limitation of auto‐PBSCT was suggested, despite the increase in the intensity of a single treatment. The development of long‐term therapeutic strategies by including new molecular targeted drugs is warranted to maintain long‐term molecular remission. |
