Role of stem cell transplantation in TKI era • Allogeneic transplantation: • considered as the only curative option in the pre TKI era • searching for suitable donor • transplantation mortality • Autologous transplantation: • usually associated with high relapse rate • limited to patients achieved undetectable transcripts .
Role of stem cell transplantation in TKI era • Impact of TKI on leukemia stem cells (LSC): • imatinib and novel TKIs such as nilotinib and dasatinibas combined with cytotoxic agents improved response, molecular remission and overall outcome • in vitro experiments suggested that TKIs have antiproliferative but no cytotoxic effect on most primitive ALL LSCs • none TKIs in clinical use are able to kill most primitive LSCs • LSCs lead to relapse .

Elderly ph+ ALL: PETHEMA study - 32 newly diagnosed ph+ ALL - median age 65 (56-82) - Induction response: 26 CR (84%); ED 4 (13%); NR 1 (3%) - Post-remission: death in CR 2/26 (8%), relapse 9/26 (35%), alive in CR1 15/32 (47%) - CR duration: median 37 months (13~43) - Median OS: 22 months - Median EFS: 21 months; 4-year EFS: 38% British Journal of Haematology Volume 159, Issue 4, pages 485–488, November 2012
Conclusions • Use of TKIs resulted in higher CR rate (95~100%) even with minimal chemotherapy • TKI-containing therapy followed by myeloablativeallo-HSCT resulted in long-term survival of 50~60% in young adults; promising results also in non-myeloablative HSCT or alternative donor • Auto-HSCT can be reconsidered in case of profound or complete molecular response without suitable donor • TKI + chemo without SCT: - intensified chemo + TKI considered for young/fit patients - TKI + chemo in elderly remained to be improved • Optimal dose / duration of TKI remained to be determined
