ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To perform a retrospective analysis of the prognostic relevance of clinicopathologic parameters in a well-documented cohort of patients treated with all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA)-based induction regimens in order to discover which indicators can predict a high risk of early death (ED) and patient survival. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
We analyzed data of 288 newly diagnosed adult acute promyelocytic leukemia patients in Hangzhou, China. The median follow-up time was 32 months (range, 6-78 months).RESULTS:
The 3-year disease-free and overall survival rates were 90.83% and 91.69%, respectively. In the multivariable analysis, older age (≥ 60 years) was the only independent risk factor for ED (hazard ratio [HR] = 15.057; P = .004). High white blood cell count was not a risk factor for ED (P = .055), but it was for relapse (HR = 2.7; P = .009). FLT3 mutation (HR = 3.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.4 to 10; P = .007) and older age (≥ 60 years) (HR = 5.3; 95% confidence interval, 2.4 to 11; P < .001) were prognostic factors for poorer disease-free and overall survival. Interestingly, CD15 negativity (HR = 0.23; P = .049) was a prognostic factor for relapse. The ED rate was 5.9% (17/288 patients).CONCLUSION:
The perceived impact of the identification of these high-risk factors should be described in order to decide whether any modifications to treatment strategy should be entertained.Palavras-chave
