Objective To evaluate the usefulness of the submucosal tunnel ureteroileostomy using ileovalvular segment as afferent loop in preventing ureteral refluxes and upper urinary tract infection in detenia ceacal-colon continent urinary diversion. Methods Ten patients underwent submucosal tunnel ureteroileostomy in detenia ceacal-colon continent reservior and detenia coloneobladder and the follow up for ureteral reflux and upper urinary tract infection was carried out from 1998 to 2001. Results The patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months.No evidence of ureteral reflux and upper urinary tract infection was observed.Unilateral hydronephrosis was found in one patient caused by the ureteroileal anastomotic stricture. Conclusions Submucosal tunnel ureteroileostomy is an effective fashion for detenia ceacal-colon continent urinary diversion in preventing the postoperative complications of ureteral reflux and upper urinary tract infection.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of moderate-dose of etoposide (VP16) with granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for mobilization of peripheral blood stem/progenitor cells.Methods VP16 at 1.2 g/m2 was injected intravenously by six divided doses via a central vein, 2 times every 12 hours for 3 days in 31 patients with malignant lymphoma (30 non-Hodgkin lymphoma and 1 Hodgkin lymphoma). All patients received G-CSF 5 μg/kg were given twice daily subcutaneously from the day of the nadir of white blood cell (WBC) till the day before the last APBSC harvest. Results The mean time for the collection of stem cell was 12 days (10-15) following etoposide chemotherapy. The mean number of mononuclear cell (MNC) and CD+34 cells in collection were 7.8×108/kg (5.2-11.3×108) and 7.2×106/kg (5.3-13.1×106). respectively. 18 patients completed collection with a single apheresis, and 13 patients underwenttwice. All patients were recovered for haematopoiesis in following APBSCT. Median (range) time for the recovery of absolute neutrophil count (ANC)＞0.5×109/L and platelet＞20×109/L were+12 (+9-+18) days and +14 (+10-+21) days respectively. Slight adverse events coursed by the regimen could be tolerated. Conclusion VP16 at moderate dose with G-CSF is an effective and safe mobilizing regimen for autologous peripheral blood stem/progenitor cells in patients with malignant lymphoma. It was suggested to use extensively.

Objective To explore the effective treatment with regimen of remission induction for relapsed/refractory precursor lymphocytic leukemia/lymphoma patients. Methods 6 patients with relapsed/refractory precursor lymphocytic leukemia/lymphoma including 2 acute lymphocytic leukemia, 4 lymphoblast lymphoma and 1 hybrid acute leukemia were treated by combination of CAG regimen with L-asparaginase (L-Asp) and prednisone (PDN). Results All patients responded to the regimen, in which 6/7 (85.7 %)patients achieved complete remission and 1/7 (14.3 %) patient achieved partial remission after one course.Light adverse events coursed by the regimen could be tolerated. Conclusion The regimen consisting of CAG, PDN and L-Asp is worth exploring for relapsed/refractory precursor lymphocytic leukemia/lymphoma.

Objective:To evaluate risk factors and available treatments of extramedullary relapse (EMR) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myeloid leukemia.Methods:A total of 280 patients were retrospectively analyzed from January 2008 to December 2018 in Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University. Clinical data were collected including disease patterns, pre-transplantation status, chromosome karyotype, conditioning regimen, types of donor, extramedullary disease before transplantation and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The log-rank test and Cox proportional hazard model were uesd for univariate analysis and multivariate analysis, respectively.Results:Twenty patients developed EMR (7.14%). The median time of EMR was 7.5 (1-123) months after allo-HSCT. The mortality of EMR was 80% (16/20). Univariate analysis identified disease patterns, second complete remission (CR2) or progressive disease before transplantation, extramedullary disease, abnormal karyotype and conditioning regimen without total body radiation as significant factors correlated to EMR ( P<0.05). Multi-variable analysis revealed that CR2 or progressive disease ( RR=3.468,95% CI 2.189-7.786), abnormal karyotype ( RR=1.494,95% CI 1.020-2.189) and extramedullary disease before transplantation ( RR=8.627,95% CI 3.921-18.452) were independent risk factors of EMR. Conclusions:The clinical outcome of EMR after allo-HSCT is poor.It is crucial to comprehensively assess and identify EMR as early as possible.

Objective: To explore the pregnancy outcome and disease status among patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) treated with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) when they stopped TKI treatment during pregnancy. Methods: The clinical characteristics, reproductive outcomes and disease status of the patients who stopped TKI due to pregnancy between November 2004 to November 2017 were retrospectively collected. Results: A total of 14 CML patients in chronic phase (CML-CP), 12 patients were Sokal-low-risk. The median time of TKI treatment was 46.5 (15-123) months before the drug was stopped. The median age at the time of pregnancy was 29 (24-32) years. The median time of TKI exposure was 4 (0-9) weeks in 12 accidental pregnancies. Outcomes were available for 13 pregnancies, 9 cases (69.2%) delivered healthy babies, 1 case (7.7%) delivered polydactylia malformation baby, 3 cases (23.1%) had spontaneous abortion. The last one was still in pregnancy (no organ malformations were observed in color Doppler ultrasound). At the end of the follow up date, 10 children developed normal, the median age was 14 (0.7-65) months. Of the 14 patients who stopped TKI, 7 in complete molecular response (CMR), 3 in MR⁴ (BCR-ABL^IS <0.01%, ABL transcript >10 000), 2 in major molecular response (MMR), 2 in complete cytogenetic response (CCyR). The median time of TKI discontinuation during pregnancy was 33.5 (4-40) weeks. At the end of pregnancy, 4 cases were in CMR, 4 in MR⁴, 1 in MMR and 4 in CCyR. No patients lost CCyR and complete hematologic remission. Conclusions During the treatment of imatinib and Nilotinib, unplanned pregnancy may have a normal infant, but may lead to spontaneous abortion and congenital malformations. Female of CML-CP who had sustained and stable MMR at least 24 months and Sokal-low-risk had higher safety factor discontinued TKI during pregnancy, but still had a risk of increasing tumor load, so monitored the level of BCR-ABL of peripheral blood monthly during pregnancy is necessary.

Objective: To investigate the molecular-cytogenetic characterization and impact on tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) therapy in chronic phase of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML-CP) patients with variant Ph chromosome (vPh). Methods: The clinical data of 32 patients with vPh chromosomes were collected and compared with 703 patients with typical Ph chromosome in newly diagnosed CML-CP who were on first-line imatinib (IM) and with BCR-ABL transcript of P210. Results: There was no significant difference in demographic and hematological characteristics between vPh and classic Ph patients. 3(9.4%) of the 32 vPh cases were simple variant translocations. Among the remaining 29 cases with complex variant translocations, 28 cases (87.5%) involved 3 chromosomes, and only 1 (3.1%) involved 4 chromosomes. Except for 8, 15, 18, X, and Y chromosomes, the other chromosomes were involved. The frequency of chromosome 12q(15.5%) and 1p (12.1%) were higher involved. The most common FISH signal pattern was 2G2R1Y (74.1%), followed by 1G1R2F (14.8%), 2G1R1Y (3.7%), 1G2R1Y (3.7%), 1G1R1Y (3.7%). The comparison of complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) (P=0.269), major molecular response (MMR) (P=0.391) were carried out between simple and complex mechanisms, without difference. Compared with the classic Ph, the patients with vPh had higher IM primary resistance rate (χ²=3.978, P=0.046), especially primary hematological resistance (χ²=7.870, P=0.005), but the difference of CCyR (χ²=0.192, P=0.661), MMR (χ²=0.822, P=0.365), EFS (χ²=0.509, P=0.476), OS (χ²=3.485, P=0.062) were not statistically significant, and multivariate analysis showed that the presence of vPh did not affect OS (RR=0.692, 95%CI 0.393-1.765, P=0.658)、EFS (RR=0.893, 95%CI 0.347-2.132, P=0.126) and PFS (RR=1.176, 95%CI 0.643-2.682, P=0.703). Conclusion CML-CP patients with vPh and classic Ph had similar demographic and hematological characteristics. Except for 22q11, 9q34, the frequency of chromosome 12q and 1p were higher involved. The most common FISH signal pattern was 2G2R1Y, and different mechanisms had no impact on TKIs therapy. Compared with cases with classic Ph chromosomes, the patients with vPh chromosomes had higher risk of IM primary resistance, especially primary hematological resistance, which can obtain deeper molecular response quickly after changing to second-generation TKIs and didn’t affect long-term outcomes and OS.

Objective: To explore the occurrence, clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of glomerulitis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Analysis were carried out based on the clinical data of 6 patients with de novo glomerulitis following allo-HSCT hospitalized in Henan Tumor Hospital from January 2008 to December 2016, and the clinical manifestation, pathology, diagnosis, treatment and outcome were investigated. Results: The occurrence of glomerulitis was 1.26% (6/478). The median time was 447(272-1 495) d after allo-HSCT. Proteinuria and varying degrees of edema were present in all patients. Of the 6 patients, 4 patients with impaired renal function, 3 cases of hypertension, 5 cases of urine occult blood positive, 2 cases of hyperlipidemia. 5 patients underwent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), 4 patients accompanied with chronic GVHD at diagnosis. Kidney pathology showed typical features of minimal change diseases in 1 patient, membranous nephropathy in 4 patients and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis in 1 case. Immunohistochemistry of glomerular lesions revealed that the immune complex deposition included IgG in 4 patients, C3 in 3 patients, IgM and C1q in 1 patient. Serum ANA was positive in 2 patients and serum IgG and IgM were in high level in 1 patient, respectively. Only 1 case was effective on glucocorticoid. 5 cases treated by low dose cyclophosphamide combined with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), 2 cases achieved complete remission, and 3 cases were partial remission. Up to now, 2 cases died with lung infection, and 4 patients survived. Conclusion The predominant pathological type of glomerulitis was membranous nephropathy. Low-dose cyclophosphamide combined with MMF was an effective treatment.

Objective: To investigate the characteristics and prognosis of clonal chromosomal abnormalities appearing in Philadelphia negative metaphases (CCA/Ph^-) cells in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) with tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy. Methods: The clinical data of 30 cases with CCA/Ph^- during TKI treatment in Henan Cancer Hospital from August 2007 to July 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The univariate factor was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method. Multiple-factor was analyzed by Cox proportional risk model. Results: Of the 30 cases, 19 (63.3%) were males. At the first detection of CCA/Ph^- the median age was 44 (rang 14-68) years old and the median treatment of TKI was 13 (rang 2-94) months. The clones proportion of first detected CCA/Ph^-≥ 50% was found in 18 (60.0%) cases. TKI treatment for 3 months with BCR-ABL^IS less than 10% was seen in 14 (46.7%) patients. 63.3% (19/30) of CCA/Ph^- was transient (only one time) and 36.7% (11/30) was repeated (≥2 times) . Trisomy 8 dominant accounted for 60.0% (18/30) , -7/7q- for 13.3% (4/30) , loss of chromosome Y 6.7%. With a median of follow-up 50 months, 76.7% (23/30) cases were in complete cytogenetic response (CCyR) ; 63.3% (19/30) in major molecular response (MMR) , 43.3% (13/30) in undetectable minimal residual disease (UMRD) . The median event-free survival rate of (EFS) were 44 months, and 2-year and 5-year EFS were (82.1±7.3) % and (52.4±12.8) %, respectively. The median overall survival (OS) were 50 months, and 2-year and 5-year OS rates were (92.6±5.0) % and (77.2±14.7) %, respectively. Univariate analysis shows that the 2-year EFS of who in males, more than 2 times CCA/Ph^-, BCR-ABL^IS>10% at 3 months after TKI were significantly lower than women, transient CCA/Ph^-, and BCR-ABL^IS≤10% (P<0.05) . The 2-year OS rate in whom the occurrence frequency of CCA/Ph^- more than twice was significantly lower than those with transient CCA/Ph^- (P<0.05) . Multivariate analysis showed that CCA/Ph^- was an independent risk factor (RR=4.741, 95%CI 1.21-18.571, P=0.018) for EFS in CML patients. Conclusion Trisomy 8, -7/7q-, and -Y were the most common CCA/Ph^- during TKI treatment, with high clones proportion of ≥50%. CCA/Ph^- mainly occurred transiently or was permanent occasionally. CCA/Ph^- recurrence (≥2 times) was an independent risk factor for EFS and OS in CML with TKI.

Objective: To investigate the influence of additional clonal chromosome abnormalities in Ph negative cells (CCA/Ph^-) on the efficacy of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) after tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) treatment. Methods: The clinical data of 28 CML patients with CCA/Ph^- treated in Henan Cancer Hospital from July 2014 to December 2017 were analyzed retrospectively. The univariate analysis was carried out by Kaplan-Meier method. Multivariate analysis was done by Cox proportional risk model. Results: A total of 28 CCA/Ph^-patients were recruited including 17 males and 11 females with median age of 42.5 years old. The most common CCA/Ph^-were trisomy 8 (60.7%), monosomy 7 (14.3%). 64.3% CCA/Ph^-were transient and 35.7% recurrent (more than 2 times). Cytopenia in two or three lineages of peripheral blood was seen in 42.9% patients. As to the efficacy, 89.3% patients achieved major cytogenetic response (MCyR), 25% with major molecular response (MMR). The median follow-up time was 26.5 months. Treatment failure (TF) of TKI occurred in 32.1% patients with median duration of response 8 (1-41) months. Univariate analysis showed that TF rate was significantly correlated with the frequency of CCA/Ph^-and cytopenia (all P<0.05). The MMR rate was also significantly correlated with cytopenia (P<0.05). Cytopenia of two lineages or pancytopenia was an independent risk factor related to MMR rate (RR=3.868, 95%CI 1.216-12.298, P=0.022) . Conclusions Cytopenia in CCA/Ph^-appears to be an independent risk factor of MMR in CML patients with TKI treatment. The recurrent CCA/Ph^-may link to higher treatment failure rate. Drug withdrawal or alternative strategy should be considered according to response and the ABL kinase mutations.

Objective To observe regular monitoring in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who received tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI), and to analyze its influencing factors. Methods A total of 857 patients with CML in Henan Tumor Hospital from October 2012 to October 2016 were collected. Patients were told to receive regular monitoring after receiving TKI treatment, including blood routine, bone marrow, BCR-ABL fusion gene and chromosomes. All patients were divided into good and poor compliance groups according to regular monitoring. Chi-square test was used to compare ABL kinase domain mutations rate and mortality between two groups. TKI species, level of education, duration from diagnosis to treatment, teaching times, sites of follow-up, convenience of transportation, annual income and gender were recorded respectively, and the factors affecting regular monitoring were analyzed by using single and multiple factor analysis. Results There were 390 and 467 patients in good and poor compliance groups respectively. Treatment failure rate was 19.49％ (76/390) and 25.91％ (121/467) in good and poor compliance groups respectively, the mutation rate was 28.95％ (22/76) and 7.44％ (9/121) respectively. The difference of ABL kinase domain mutation in patients with treatment failure of both groups was statistically significant (χ 2 =16.287, P < 0.01). The mortality was 0.77％ (3/390) in good compliance group, and 2.78％ (13/467) in poor compliance group, and the difference was statistically significant (χ 2 = 4.543, P = 0.033). The single factors analysis showed that TKI species, level of education, duration from diagnosis to treatment, teaching times, sites of follow-up, convenience of traffic and annual income were related with regular monitoring (all P < 0.05). Multiple-factor analysis showed that inconvenient transportation (β = 1.56, 95％ CI 1.74-3.74, P = 0.014), low education level (β = 1.67, 95％ CI 0.81-3.12, P = 0.041) and low income (β = 2.87, 95％ CI 1.31-4.51, 95％CI 1.74-3.74, P = 0.011) were independent factors for poor compliance in regular monitoring. In the result detection, 56 fusion genes fluctuated. Conclusions CML patients who received regular monitoring have a low treatment failure rate and mortality. Inconvenient transportation, low education level and low outcome are independent risk factors for regular monitoring. The single monitoring result can not prompt treatment effect, and thus it needs to review and monitor for many times.
