RESUMO
PURPOSE: T(8;21)(q22;q22.1)/AML1-ETO positive acute myeloid leukemia (AE-AML) is sensitive to conventional chemotherapy with a favorable prognosis. However, recent small case reports suggest the limited effectiveness of venetoclax (VEN) and hypomethylating agents (HMA) in treating AE-AML. The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the effectiveness of VEN plus AZA (VA) in AE-AML and explore whether adding homoharringtonine (HHT) to VA (VAH) could improve the response. METHODS: Patients who received VEN plus AZA and HHT (VAH) or VEN plus AZA (VA) regimens were included in this retrospective study. The endpoints of this study were to evaluate the rate of composite complete remission (CRc), measurable residual disease (MRD), event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS), and relapse between VAH and VA groups. RESULTS: A total of 32 AE-AML patients who underwent VA or VAH treatments (newly diagnosed with VA, ND-VA, n = 8; relapsed/refractory with VA, R/R-VA, n = 10; relapsed/refractory with VAH, R/R-VAH, n = 14) were included. The CR (complete remission) /CRi (CR with incomplete count recovery) rate of ND-VA, R/R-VA and R/R-VAH were 25%, 10%, and 64.3%, respectively. Measurable residual disease (MRD) negative was observed in 66.7% of R/R-VAH and none of VA-R/R patients. Co-occurring methylation mutations are associated with poor outcomes with VA but exhibit a more favorable response with VAH treatment. Additionally, patients with c-kit mutation presented inferior outcomes with both VEN-based regimens. All regimens were tolerated well by all patients. CONCLUSION: Our data confirmed the poor response of VA in AE-AML, whether used as frontline or salvage therapy. Adding HHT to VA may improve outcomes and enhance the efficacy of VEN in this population.

Objective:To investigate the expression and prognostic significance of CD19 in patients with Acute myelogenous leukemia with AML1-ETO positive. Methods: Clinical data of 66 patients AML with AML1-ETO positive who were newly diagnosed from Jan 2010 to Dec 2015 were collected. To retrospectively analyze the relationship between clinical characteristics and expression of CD19,so dose the prognosis. Results:The positive rate of CD19 expressing in AML with AML1-ETO positive was 50. 0%. There were no statistically significant differences in terms of age,gender,hemoglobin,platelet,percentage of bone marrow blasts,accompanied with chromosome ,gene mutations between patients with and without CD19 expression(P>0. 05). The white blood cell count(WBC) of the CD19 negative group was higher than CD19 positive group,while showed significant difference(P=0. 027). Although the relapse-free survival (RFS) of patients with CD19 expression was higher than those without,no significant difference was calculated (P=0. 105). Patients with CD19 expression had superior overall survival ( OS ) compared to those without CD19 expression ( P = 0. 030 ) . Multivariable analysis for OS identified CD19 positivity as an independent predictor associated with better prognosis. Conclusion: The expression of CD19 in AML with AML1-ETO positive may be an indicator associated with better prognosis.
