Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and side effects of venetoclax combined with azacitidine chemotherapy in the treatment of previously untreated adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia(AML).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 48 untreated adult AML patients admitted to the Department of Hematology,Affiliated Hospital of Jinggangshan University from January 2020 to December 2022.Among them,26 patients received venetoclax combined with azacitidine chemotherapy(observation group),and 22 patients received daunorubicin plus cytarabine chemotherapy(control group).The differences in complete response(CR)rate,objective response rate(ORR),progression-free survival(PFS),overall survival(OS)and adverse reactions(AR)were compared between the two groups.Results:There was no significant difference in age,sex ratio,absolute value of tri-lineage cell and proportion of bone marrow primordial cells between the two groups before treatment(all P＞0.05).The CR rate and the ORR rate of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group(P＜0.05).After treatment,there were no significant difference in the adverse reactions such as myelosuppression,granulocytosis,secondary infection,mucosal damage,liver and kidney damage,cardiotoxicity and gastrointestinal toxicity between the two groups(P＞0.05).The median PFS and the median OS of the observation group were significantly better than those of the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The remission rate of venetoclax combined with azacitidine was higher than that of conventional chemotherapy in previously untreated adult acute myeloid leukemia.Venetoclax combined with azacitidine chemotherapy could reduce hematologic related side reactions and prolong the remission period and survival of AML patients.
