Abstract:
Objective To investigate the efficacy and prognostic risk factors of ALL-R-2003 protocol in the treatment of relapsed childhood relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in single center. Methods A retrospective study of clinical data of 51 children with relapsed ALL from January 2004 to December 2014 was performed by using SPSS version 19.0 statistical software for statistical analysis. Results The median age at initial diagnosis of 51 patients was 5.5 years (range, 0.8-13.4 years). The median time from initial diagnosis to relapse was 25 months (range, 3-68 months) and follow-up time was 39 months (range, 3-116 months). The relapse rate in the standard-risk, intermediate-risk and the high-risk groups were 27.5 % (14/51), 29.4 %(15/51) and 43.1 % (22/51), respectively. The probability of 3-year overall survival (pOS) after relapse was (18.8±5.9)%and the probability of event free survival (pEFS) was (16.2±5.8)%. The 3-year pOS in very early relapse, early relapse and late relapse were 0, (11.7 ±7.7) % and (51.7 ±14.8) %, respectively (P= 0.000). There was no statistical difference in survival rate of different immunophenotype groups and sites of relapse (P> 0.05). The 3-year pOS of group S1, S2, S3, S4 were (50.0±35.4) %, (39.9±1.3) %, (10.0±9.5) % and 0, respectively (P=0.000). The 3-year pOS of bcr-abl and MLL gene positive groups were (25.0±21.7) %and 0, respectively, with no statistically significance compared with the negtive group [(24.1±12.0)%] (P>0.05). The 3-year pOS rates of children with bone marrow transplantation and without transplantation were (40.0 ±15.5) %and (13.0 ±5.9) % respectively (P= 0.038). Conclusions The children who in high risk group at initial diagnose are easily to meet earlier relapse and poorer prognosis. The survival period after relapse of bcr-abl or MLL gene positive cases is very short. Bone marrow transplantation can improve survival rate. Risk group at initial diagnose, relapse time and transplantation are the main factors influencing prognosis, and the relapse time and transplantation are the independent prognostic factors for relapsed childhood ALL.
