RESUMO
Although Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute leukemia (Ph + -ALL) has been revolutionized with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), resistance and mutation are universal events during treatment with first-generation and second-generation TKIs. The present third-generation TKI has a dose-dependent, increased risk of serious cardiovascular events and the sensitivity is poor for patients with ≥2 mutations accompanied by the T315I mutation. Thus, novel and well-tolerated TKIs should be explored. This study analyzes the efficacy and advert effects of olverembatinib, a novel third TKI, in the treatment of newly diagnosed adult Ph + -ALL in induction therapy. Four adult patients with newly diagnosed Ph + -ALL were treated with olverembatinib as the first-line treatment. For induction therapy, these patients received 40 mg of oral olverembatinib quaque omni die for 28 days, 1 mg/kg/d of prednisone for 14 days, then tapered and stopped at 28 days and vindesine 4 mg/d at days 1, 8 and 15. After induction therapy, these patients received median or high-dose of cytarabine and methotrexate combined with oral olverembatinib as consolidation therapy. Then the allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) was performed. All patients reached complete remission with a complete cytogenetic response after induction therapy. Two patients reached major molecular remission and one with complete molecular remission. Before allo-HSCT, all the patients achieved complete molecular remission. All the patients have survived disease-free for 3-6 months. No severe advert effects were observed. It is well-tolerated and effective for olverembatinib in the treatment of newly diagnosed adult patients with Ph + -ALL. A prospective study should be performed to further testify the role.

BACKGROUND: There were few studies on real-world data about autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) or allogeneic HSCT (allo-HSCT) in peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL). This study aimed to investigate the clinical outcomes of patients who received auto-HSCT or allo-HSCT in China. METHODS: From July 2007 to June 2017, a total of 128 patients who received auto-HSCT (nâ =â72) or allo-HSCT (nâ =â56) at eight medical centers across China were included in this study. We retrospectively collected their demographic and clinical data and compared the clinical outcomes between groups. RESULTS: Patients receiving allo-HSCT were more likely to be diagnosed with stage III or IV disease (95% vs. 82%, Pâ=â0.027), bone marrow involvement (42% vs. 15%, Pâ=â0.001), chemotherapy-resistant disease (41% vs. 8%, Pâ=â0.001), and progression disease (32% vs. 4%, Pâ<â0.001) at transplantation than those receiving auto-HSCT. With a median follow-up of 30 (2-143) months, 3-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in the auto-HSCT group were 70%(48/63) and 59%(42/63), respectively. Three-year OS and PFS for allo-HSCT recipients were 46%(27/54) and 44%(29/54), respectively. There was no difference in relapse rate (34%[17/63] in auto-HSCT vs. 29%[15/54] in allo-HSCT, Pâ=â0.840). Three-year non-relapse mortality rate in auto-HSCT recipients was 6%(4/63) compared with 27%(14/54) for allo-HSCT recipients (Pâ=â0.004). Subanalyses showed that patients with lower prognostic index scores for PTCL (PIT) who received auto-HSCT in an upfront setting had a better outcome than patients with higher PIT scores (3-year OS: 85% vs. 40%, Pâ=â0.003). Patients with complete remission (CR) undergoing auto-HSCT had better survival (3-year OS: 88% vs. 48% in allo-HSCT, Pâ=â0.008). For patients beyond CR, the outcome of patients who received allo-HSCT was similar to that in the atuo-HSCT group (3-year OS: 51% vs. 46%, Pâ=â0.300). CONCLUSIONS: Our study provided real-world data about auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT in China. Auto-HSCT seemed to be associated with better survival for patients in good condition (lower PIT score and/or better disease control). For patients possessing unfavorable characteristics, the survival of patients receiving allo-HSCT group was similar to that in the auto-HSCT group.

T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL) is a highly aggressive form of lymphoma with poor clinical outcomes and lacks of a standard treatment regimen. In this study, we assessed the safety and efficacy of tandem autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) strategy for adult T-LBL and evaluated prognostic factors affecting survival. 181 Newly-diagnosed adult T-LBL patients were enrolled, 89 patients were treated with chemotherapy alone, 46 patients were allocated to single auto-HSCT group, 46 patients were treated with tandem auto-HSCT. The median follow-up time was 37 months, the 3-year progression/relapse rate of the tandem auto-HSCT group was significantly lower than that of the single auto-HSCT group and chemotherapy group (26.5% vs 53.1% and 54.8%). The 3-year PFS and OS rate of the tandem auto-HSCT group (73.5% and 76.3%) were significantly higher than those of the single auto-HSCT group (46.9% and 58.3%) and the chemotherapy group (45.1% and 57.1%). In the tandem auto-HSCT group, age and disease status after the first transplantation impacted the OS and PFS. Multivariate analysis identified that disease status after the first transplantation was the only independent prognostic factor for patients treated with tandem-HSCT. In addition, diagnostic models of the initial CD8+CD28+/CD8+CD28- T cell ratio in predicting the disease status were found to be significant. Taken together, tandem auto-HSCT can be considered an optimal strategy for adult T-LBL patients (ChiCTR-ONN-16008480).

Connexin 43 (Cx43) induced apoptosis has been reported in solid tumors, but the effect of Cx43 expressed by bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) in leukemia has not been fully investigated. Manipulating Cx43 expression could be a potential therapeutic strategy for leukemia. Here, we investigate the effect of Cx43 expressed by BMSCs (human Umbilical Cord Stem Cells over-expressed CX43, Cx43-hUCSC) on leukemia cells. When co-cultured with Cx43-hUCSC, leukemia cells show significant lower growth rate with increasing apoptosis activity, and more leukemia cells enter S phase. Functional assays of fluorescence recovery after photo bleaching (FRAP) showed improved gap junctional intercellular communication (GJIC) on leukemia cells when co-cultured with Cx43-hUCSC (p < 0.01). In a mouse minimal disease model, the mean survival time and mortality rate were significantly improved in mice transplanted with Cx43-hUCSC. Our results indicate that Cx43 expressed by BMSC induces apoptosis on leukemia cells. Small molecules or other pharmaceutical approaches for modulating Cx43 expression in BMSCs could be used for delaying relapse of leukemia.
