Abstract
Background: Therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) is considered high risk as it related to prior exposure to cytotoxic chemotherapy agents for solid tumors or hematologic malignancies. Compared with de novo AML, t-AML is associated with lower remission rates, inferior overall survival (OS) and higher relapse rates. Many efforts have been devoted to improving the overall but with limited success, and novel strategy is thus highly needed.
Case description: We reported one patient with refractory/relapsed t-AML was successfully treated with Palbociclib combined with Venetoclax and Azacytidine (AZA). In this case, a 47-year-old patient with t-AML recurred during Venetoclax in combination with AZA therapy. However, the patient achieved morphological, immunophenotypic and molecular complete remission again after Palbociclib combined with Venetoclax and AZA.
Conclusions: Although only one successful case is presented here, three-drug combination regimens should be considered as another treatment option for t-AML in the future.
期刊介绍:
Addressing a wide range of pharmacologic and oncologic concerns on both experimental and clinical levels, Cancer Chemotherapy and Pharmacology is an eminent journal in the field. The primary focus in this rapid publication medium is on new anticancer agents, their experimental screening, preclinical toxicology and pharmacology, single and combined drug administration modalities, and clinical phase I, II and III trials. It is essential reading for pharmacologists and oncologists giving results recorded in the following areas: clinical toxicology, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, drug interactions, and indications for chemotherapy in cancer treatment strategy.
