- Brief Summary
Elderly AML patients receiving conventional chemotherapy have poor prognosis. Allo-HSCT offers better long-term survival than chemotherapy, while high TRM limits its use. Current research focuses more on improving conditioning regimens to reduce TRM. Studies suggest Bu/Flu/Cy/ATG are safer and more effective for elderly AML haplo-HSCT, lowering TRM. However, prospective randomized trials are lacking. This study aims to compare Bu/Flu/Cy/ATG vs. Bu/Cy/ATG to determine if TRM can be reduced in elderly AML undergoing haplo-HSCT.
- Detailed Description
The prognosis of elderly patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing conventional chemotherapy is poor. Compared with chemotherapy, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) can improve long-term survival in elderly patients. However, the high transplantion-related mortality (TRM) limited its application. Currently, the top priority in transplantation for elderly AML patients is to reduce TRM through methods such as optimizing conditioning regimens, reducing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and preventing infections. Present research primarily focuses on optimizing conditioning regimens. Both domestic and international studies, as well as our team's preliminary research, suggest that replacing cyclophosphamide (Cy) with fludarabine (Flu) can reduce toxicity. Earlier prospective single-arm clinical study in our team confirmed that the Bu/Flu/Cy/ATG regimen is a safe and effective conditioning protocol for haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) in elderly AML patients. This study aims to use a prospective randomized controlled trial to verify whether the Bu/Flu/Cy/ATG conditioning regimen can reduce TRM compared with the Bu/Cy/ATG regimen in elderly AML patients undergoing haplo-HSCT.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Transplant-related mortality (TRM) From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. TRM is defined as death due to any transplantation-related cause other than disease relapse. Transplant-related mortality will be calculated using a competing risks model.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Toxicity of conditioning From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 28 days and 100 days post-treatment. Toxicity of conditioning within 28 days of HSCT can be graded according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE): 1.Grade 1: Mild toxicity that does not require medical intervention. 2.Grade 2: Moderate toxicity that may require medical intervention. 3.Grade 3: Severe toxicity that requires significant medical intervention, hospitalization, or results in lasting effects. 4.Grade 4: Life-threatening toxicity, potentially requiring intensive care. 5.Grade 5: Death caused by the toxicity reaction.
GVHD From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. Acute GVHD was classified as symptom presentation before 100 days after haplo-HSCT and chronic GVHD was classified as symptom presentation \>100 days after haplo-HSCT. Each organ (skin, liver, and gut) was staged 1 through 4 for Acute GVHD according to modified criteria based on the schema of the Mount Sinai Acute GVHD International Consortium (MAGIC), and patients were also assigned a grade of acute GVHD (I through IV) based on overall severity. Chronic GVHD was graded in accordance with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Chronic Graft-versus-Host Disease Consensus Criteria.
Overall Survival From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. The time from haplo-HSCT to death from any cause in patients with AML. Overall survival will be calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Cumulative Incidence of Relapse From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. Relapse was defined as disease recurrence.
Leukemia-free survival From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. Leukemia-free survival (LFS) was defined as the time from transplantation to relapse, disease progression, or death, whichever occurred first.
Viral Infection From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. Detection of CMV-DNA and EBV-DNA in peripheral blood twice a week.
Engraftment Platelet engraftment was assessment at 28 days post-transplantation. Platelet engraftment was defined as the first of seven consecutive days with a platelet count \>20 × 109/L without transfusion support. Neutrophil engraftment was defined as the first of three consecutive days with an ANC \> 0.5 × 109/L.
Event-Free Survival From HSCT to the follow-up assessment at 12 months post-treatment. Event-Free Survival (EFS) was defined as the time from transplantation to relapse, graft failure, death from any cause, or requirement for additional anti-leukemic therapy.
