Long-term outcomes of modified BFM-95 regimen in adults with newly diagnosed standard-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a retrospective single-center study

Abstract The standard treatment for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is undefined. Patients with newly diagnosed standard-risk ALL at a single institution were retrospectively analyzed. From 2010 to 2017, 46 patients were treated using the modified Berlin–Frankfurt–Münster (BFM)-ALL-95 regimen. Hematologic and molecular complete remission (CR) rates of 91.3% and 76.1% were achieved. The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates for all patients in the cohort were 58.0% (95% confidence interval, 42.1–73.9%) and 66.7% (95% CI, 51.4–82.0%), respectively. No patient presented with central nervous system involvement after CR in this study. This condition could be related to four doses of high-dose methotrexate (MTX) every 3 months during the maintenance phase. Multivariate analysis revealed that minimal residual disease positive and time interval between induction IA and Protocol M of more than 70 days were independent adverse factors for EFS and OS. One or more instances of grade 4 myelosuppression occurred during induction therapy. Nonhematological side effects were mild. No toxicity-related deaths were observed in the entire cohort. The data indicated that the modified regimen is well tolerated and can produce the promising outcomes in Chinese adults with standard-risk ALL..
