Abstract:
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for elderly patients with advanced myeloid neoplasm. Methods: From September 2014 to September 2017, 30 consecutive hospitalized 50-plus-year-old myeloid neoplasm patients were retrospectively analyzed. At the time of transplantation, 6 patients reached complete remission and the others remained no remission after treatment. The donors were identical sibling (12), matched unrelated (6) and haploidentical family member (12), respectively. 18 patients received RIC while 12 patients received MAC conditioning regiments consisted of Busulfan, cytarabine, fludarabine or clarithromycin±TBI, respectively. Results: Five patients died early in the conditioning stage, 24 patients successfully engrafted. The median time of neutrophil engraftment was 14(10-18) d, whereas platelet engraftment was 15(10-19) d. Six cases (25%) experienced aGVHD grades Ⅱ, 8 cases (32%) cGVHD, including moderate to severe cGVHD in 2 cases (8%). Seven, 7 and 5 cases developed CMV viremia, pneumonia and herpeszoster, respectively after transplantation, but no patients died of infections. The median follow-up time of the patients was 7(0.5-38) months. Twenty-one patients were still alive. The estimated 2 years OS and LFS were 62.5% (95% CI 39.2%-85.8%) and 59.2% (95% CI 26.9%-91.5%), respectively. Univariate analysis showed that HCT-CI was the only factor influencing OS. Conclusion: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation could improve the survival of elderly patients with myeloid neoplasm.
