Summary

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is one of the best, and sometimes the only, option for the treatment of leukemia, particularly for patients with advanced-stage leukemia. However, relapse rate was still very high for advanced-stage leukemia.

It was found in our previous study that infusion of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-primed peripheral blood progenitor cells (GPBPC) instead of non-primed lymphocytes exhibited a comparative or stronger graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect and comparative or less incidence of GVHD, rarely being complicated with pancytopenia. When GPBPC infusion was combined with the use of short-term immunosuppressant for GVHD prophylaxis, the incidence of fatal GVHD complicated with GPBPCI was further reduced. Our primary data showed the GPBPCI combined with the use of short-term immunosuppressant was feasible in patients with advanced leukemia to prevent relapse after HLA-mismatched HSCT.

The study hypothesis:

Prevention of relapse using granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-primed peripheral blood progenitor cells following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with advanced-stage acute leukemia can

* reduce relapse rate
* improve survival

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

prophylactic GPBPCI

A G-CSF-primed PBPCI was planned within day 60 post-transplantation before hematologic relapse was diagnosed
