Résumé fourni par la source

Introduction: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is the most common neoplasm in childhood and has high survival rates. In adults, due to the biological characteristics of the disease and chemotherapy-related toxicity, survival is lower. CALGB 9511 is a chemotherapy protocol based on pediatric regimens with high remission rates after induction. Objectives: To evaluate the survival of patients with ALL undergoing the CALGB 9511 protocol at Walter Cantídio University Hospital (HUWC); to describe the impact of risk factors: presence of measurable residual disease, BCR-ABL fusion gene status, and allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) on the survival of this group. Methodology: Retrospective evaluation of medical records of patients with ALL treated with this protocol between 2011 and 2022. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kaplan-Meier method to estimate survival probability. Results: 79 patients were eligible; 19% were BCR-ABL positive; the mean 2-year overall survival was 44%; The 2-year survival rate for patients undergoing HSCT was approximately 78%.. Conclusion: The survival curves of the study conducted at HUWC are similar to those described in the literature and corroborate the severity of the disease. Accessibility to new therapeutic modalities is a strategy that can improve the survival of these patients.
