Summary

Patients with acute myeloid leukemia aged 65-75 have a very poor prognosis, irrespective of the treatment strategy, including demethylating agents or conventional chemotherapy. With these approaches, remission rates do not exceed 40%, and overall disease-free survival at 1 year is in the order of 15%. The hypothesis is that up-front allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant will produce a complete remission rate of 60% on day +56-70, and disease-free survival at 1 year of 30%. This is a single arm phase II study of upfront allogeneic stem cell transplantation, for patients with acute myeloid leukemia aged 65-75: the primary endpoint is a complete remission rate on day +56-70. The secondary endpoint is a 1-year overall disease-free survival of 30%.

Interventions

DRUG

Up-front allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT)

Patients classified as fit/unfit are included in the HSCT program. There are two early approaches allowed. A) Patients will be left untreated until HSCT B) Patients will receive 1 short course of chemotherapy before HSCT (Ara-C and anthracycline). Selection of strategy A or B, will be patient based on disease characteristics and dynamics or presence of high tumor load. Conditioning for haplo-HSCT should be started as soon as possible, within day 45 after initial diagnosis. This is to avoid delayed transplantation. Two dosing levels of the Thiotepa-Busulfan-Fludarabine (TBF) based protocol are allowed based on the clinical condition of the patient: fit patients below 70 will receive the TBF with 2 days of Busulfan, whereas patients with poorer clinical condition or above the age of 70 will receive a dose-reduced TBF, in which Busulfan may be reduced to 1 day only.
