Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) is an effective therapy for acute leukemia, but relapse remains an important problem. Therapy options for relapse include stopping immune suppression, re-induction of chemotherapy, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), and another transplantation used alone or in combination. However, the efficacy of these interventions is limited. One approach to the relapse problem is to intervene before hematologic or pathologic relapse occurs based on minimal residual disease (MRD). In this study, the efficacy of MRD-directed DLI on transplantation outcomes will be evaluated in patients with acute leukemia receiving allo-HSCT.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) is an effective therapy for acute leukemia, but relapse remains an important problem. Therapy options for relapse include stopping immune suppression, re-induction of chemotherapy, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), and another transplantation used alone or in combination. However, the efficacy of these interventions is limited. One approach to the relapse problem is to intervene before hematologic or pathologic relapse occurs based on minimal residual disease (MRD) using immune or molecular techniques.DLI is an effective post-transplantation therapy for prophylaxis of leukemia relapse, but is associated with a substantial risk of GVHD. Whether MRD-directed DLI could improve outcomes remains unclear. In this study, the efficacy of MRD-directed DLI on transplantation outcomes will be evaluated in patients with acute leukemia receiving allo-HSCT.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

MRD-directed DLI

For patients with MRD+ and without grade II/\>II aGVHD by day +60 post-transplantation, DLI was given once by day +60 and was then administered based on MRD and GVHD status. If patients were MRD negative, DLI was not given again; if patients were MRD positive and without GVHD, DLI was given monthly until GVHD occurred or MRD became negative or for a total of four times. For patients with NR or PR pre-transplantation and with MRD negative by day +60 post-transplantation, DLI was given once by day +90 regardless of MRD, and was then administered when MRD became positive. For patients with CR pre-transplantation and with MRD negative post-transplantation, DLI was not given unless MRD became positive.
