Effects of post-transplant maintenance therapy with decitabine prophylaxis on the relapse for acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
Bone Marrow Transplantation 2023 March 25
In adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), post-transplant relapse is a major risk factor for mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Our study investigated the efficacy and safety of decitabine (dec) with ALL patients post-transplantation. We performed a retrospective cohort study to assess the efficacy of decitabine (dec) with post-transplant ALL at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from February 2016 to September 2021. A total of 141 consecutive ALL patients were analyzed and divided into decitabine (dec, n = 65) and control (ctrl, n = 76) groups based on whether they were treated with decitabine after allo-HSCT. The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) rate in the dec group was lower than that in the ctrl group (19.6 vs. 36.1%, p = 0.031), with a hazard ratio of 0.491 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.257-0.936). Additionally, subgroup analyses revealed that the 3-year CIR rate of T-ALL and Ph-negative B-ALL patients in the dec and ctrl groups was 11.7 vs. 35.9% and 19.5 vs. 42.2% (p = 0.035, p = 0.068) respectively. In summary, ALL patients, especially those with T-ALL and Ph-negative B-ALL, may benefit from decitabine as maintenance therapy following allo-HSCT.
