Abstract

Efficacy and safety analysis of the combination of decitabine priming followed by CHAG chemotherapy in treatment of relapsed/refractory(r/r) acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Between January 2013 and June 2020, 62 r/r AML patients in our center receiving therapy including combination of decitabine and CHAG pre-excitation regimen were enrolled. Primary objectives were overall response (ORR: complete remission + partial remission), adverse events, overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS). There were 46 patients (74.2%) with complete remission (CR), 5 patients (8.06%) with partial remission (PR), ORR was 82.2%. Main adverse events were bone marrow suppression, fever and infection, and no chemotherapy-related deaths occurred. The median RFS time was 4.3 months (0.3 ~ 65 months), and median OS time was 7.75 months (1 ~ 66.3 months). Decitabine priming followed by CHAG regimen is effective and tolerated in patients with r/r AML, and can be used as a salvage treatment for patients with r/r AML.
