This study investigated the effectiveness and safety of a new induction therapy (BHA) for patients with refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML). The results showed a CR/CRi rate of 38.1% after one course of BHA and a higher CR/CRi rate of 66.7% in patients with FLT3 mutation. BHA chemotherapy regimen was found to be safe and tolerable for R/R AML patients, especially those with FLT3 mutation.
Background: Refractory/relapsed acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) has unsatisfactory outcomes even after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Long-term survival is mainly influenced by complete remission (CR) rates after induction therapies. Objectives: To investigate CR/CR with incomplete hematologic recovery (CRi) rates and adverse events with a new induction therapy (bortezomib, homoharringtonine, and cytarabine [BHA]) for patients with R/R AML. Methods: We enrolled 21 patients with R/R AML (median age, 42 [range, 30-62] years), who received BHA for remission induction (bortezomib, 1.3 mg/m(2)/day on days 1 and 4; homoharringtonine, 4 mg/m(2)/day for 5 days, and cytarabine, 1.5 g/m(2)/day for 5 days). CR and adverse events were assessed. Results: After one course of BHA, the CR/CRi and partial remission rates were 38.1% and 14.3%, respectively, with an overall response rate (ORR) of 52.4% in 21 patients. 9 of 21 patients harbored FLT3-ITD or FLT3-TKD mutations, and achieved either CR/CRi or ORR of 66.7% (P=0.03) by comparison with that in R/R AML without FLT3 mutation. After induction therapy, consolidation chemotherapy or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation led to a one-year overall survival of 27.8% in all patients. One-year relapse-free survival was 50% in 8 patients who had achieved CR/CRi after one course of BHA. During induction, non-hematologic adverse events (grade 3/4) commonly were infection (90.5%), hypokalemia (14.4%), hypocalcemia (14.3%), and mucositis (9.5%). In patients achieving CR, the median time to neutrophil count >0.5x10(9)/L and time to platelet count >20x10(9)/L were 15 (13-17) days and 13 (13-18) days, respectively. Conclusion: BHA chemotherapy regimen was safe and tolerable to serve as an induction therapy for R/R AML, particularly with FLT3 mutation. The higher CR/CRi rate will give a clue to determine a potentialeffectiveness of BHA for AML patients carrying FLT3 mutation in a further investigation.
