Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effects of the conditioning regimen with or without total body irradiation on allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in acute leukemia.Methods We retrospectively evaluated clinical outcomes in 287 allo-HSCT recipients with acute leukemia (ALL- 105,AML-129,and AUL-53) who received myeloablative conditioning regimen with or without total body irradiation from January 2002 to August 2011.Two hundred and six patients obtained complete remission (CR) and 81 non-remission (NR) before transplantation.One hundred and ninety-nine patients received conditioning with total body irradiation (TBI+ Cy group,9 Gy given over 2 days),and 88 patients received busulfan (BuCy group,3.2 mg·kg-1 ·d-1 ),both followed by cyclophosphamide.ResultsThere were no statistically significant differences in hematopoietic reconstitution,regimen-related toxicity (RRT),graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and relapse between two groups.For patients with AML and AUL,there was no significant difference in the 5-year survival between the two regimens (P＞ 0.05),while for ALL-CR patients,the TBI + Cy regimen had a higher over survival rate (52.0％ vs.31.3％,LogRank=4.249,P＜0.05) and DFS (50.4％ vs.27.8％,LogRank =4.445,P＜0.05) than BuCy.In TBI + Cy group and BuCy group,the proportion of CD19+ B cells at the first month after HSCT was (4.04 ± 1.86)％ and (1.47 ±0.99) ％ (P＜0.05),that of NK cells at 12th month after HSCT was (23.38 ± 12.19) ％ and (13.11± 7.99) ％ (P＜0.05),and that of CD4+ CD45RO+ cells at 9th month after HSCT was (14.63 ±6.17)％ and (9.07 ± 3.12)％ (P＜0.01),respectively.ConclusionUsing TBI-containing regimen was more effective for treating ALL-CR patients than busulphan-containing regimen,but no difference was found for long-term outcomes in patients with AML and AUL between the two regimens.The 9 Gy TBI-based regimens may not affect recipients' thymic function,T-cells reconstitution and immune tolerance,coming out a non-increase of GVHD.
