RESUMEN

The aim of this study was to characterize a large series of 154 patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia (median age, 53 years; range, 18-90 years) and evaluate real-life outcome after up-front treatment with arsenic trioxide and all-trans retinoic acid. All patients were included in the prospective NAPOLEON registry (NCT02192619) between 2013 and 2019. The acute promyelocytic leukemia was de novo in 91% (n=140) and therapy-related in 9% (n=14); 13% (n=20) of the patients were older than 70 years. At diagnosis bleeding/hemorrhage was present in 38% and thrombosis in 3%. Complete remission was achieved in 152 patients (99%), whereas two patients (1%) experienced induction death within 18 days after starting therapy. With a median follow-up of 1.99 years (95% confidence interval: 1.61-2.30 years) 1-year and 2-year overall survival rates were 97% (95% confidence interval: 94-100%) and 95% (95% confidence interval: 91-99%), respectively. Age above 70 years was associated with a significantly shorter overall survival (P<0.001) compared to that of younger patients. So far no relapses have been observed. Six patients (4%) died in complete remission at a median of 0.95 years after diagnosis (range, 0.18-2.38 years). Our data confirm the efficiency and durability of arsenic trioxide and all-trans retinoic acid therapy in the primary management of adults with low-/intermediate-risk acute promyelocytic leukemia in the real-life setting, irrespective of age.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: The results of the addition of gemtuzumab ozogamicin, an anti-CD33 antibody conjugate, to the standard treatment for patients with acute myeloid leukaemia in phase 3 trials were contradictory. We investigated whether the addition of low fractionated-dose gemtuzumab ozogamicin to standard front-line chemotherapy would improve the outcome of patients with this leukaemia without causing excessive toxicity. METHODS: In a phase 3, open-label study, undertaken in 26 haematology centres in France, patients aged 50-70 years with previously untreated de novo acute myeloid leukaemia were randomly assigned with a computer-generated sequence in a 1:1 ratio with block sizes of four to standard treatment (control group) with or without five doses of intravenous gemtuzumab ozogamicin (3 mg/m(2) on days 1, 4, and 7 during induction and day 1 of each of the two consolidation chemotherapy courses). The primary endpoint was event-free survival (EFS). Secondary endpoints were relapse-free (RFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Analysis was by intention to treat. This study is registered with EudraCT, number 2007-002933-36. FINDINGS: 280 patients were randomly assigned to the control (n=140) and gemtuzumab ozogamicin groups (n=140), and 139 patients were analysed in each group. Complete response with or without incomplete platelet recovery to induction was 104 (75%) in the control group and 113 (81%) in the gemtuzumab ozogamicin group (odds ratio 1·46, 95% CI 0·20-2·59; p=0·25). At 2 years, EFS was estimated as 17·1% (10·8-27·1) in the control group versus 40·8% (32·8-50·8) in the gemtuzumab ozogamicin group (hazard ratio 0·58, 0·43-0·78; p=0·0003), OS 41·9% (33·1-53·1) versus 53·2% (44·6-63·5), respectively (0·69, 0·49-0·98; p=0·0368), and RFS 22·7% (14·5-35·7) versus 50·3% (41·0-61·6), respectively (0·52, 0·36-0·75; p=0·0003). Haematological toxicity, particularly persistent thrombocytopenia, was more common in the gemtuzumab ozogamicin group than in the control group (22 [16%] vs 4 [3%]; p<0·0001), without an increase in the risk of death from toxicity. INTERPRETATION: The use of fractionated lower doses of gemtuzumab ozogamicin allows the safe delivery of higher cumulative doses and substantially improves outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukaemia. The findings warrant reassessment of gemtuzumab ozogamicin as front-line therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia. FUNDING: Wyeth (Pfizer).
