ADULT ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA
Definitions In This Presentation
Philadelphia chromosome t(9;22)(q34;q11) negative
“Adults” = age > 35 years
ADULT ACUTE LYMPHOBLASTIC LEUKEMIA
Background
• Pediatric ALL: 85% cure rate
• Adult ALL: Different biology and treatment results
• ~ 90% complete remission in age < 60 yr
• But despite arduous, long term therapy:
•
5-yr survival 30-40% in pts < age 60 yr
•
5-yr survival <15% in pts > age 60 yr
7% survival @ 5 years after relapse: few 2nd chances

TRANSPLANT INTENT-TO-TREAT TRIALS
Pitfalls Donor vs No Donor Studies
• Donor / no donor assigned @ different time points
•
“Geography” of locating sibs affects search time
–If no sib, ? assign to “no donor” @ diagnosis
•
Older studies: do not address unrelated donors
•
“Relatively” less-intense induction
– CALGB AYA study 10403
•
Not all “donor” assignments go to transplant
–Physician bias and patient refusal
ALTERNATIVE DONORS
Graft Source Considerations
Time-censoring bias may improves URD outcome:
correction required

REDUCED INTENSITY CONDITIONING
Relying On “Allogeneic Effect”
Evidence For GVL Effect In Adult ALL?
Yes
PL Weiden, FHCRC. NEJM 300: 1068-1073, 1979
• 163 allografts without GVHD vs 79 allografts with GVHD
• Relative relapse rate 2.5 times lower with GVHD (p<0.01)
• Anti-leukemia effect more marked in ALL than AML
AH Goldstone, UK MRC & ECOG. Blood 111: 1827-1833, 2008
• 239 pts: relapse rate 24% for donor vs 49% no donor (p<0.00005)
• High-risk: 37% relapse rate donor vs 63% no donor (p<0.00005)

Methodologies
• Detection sensitivity at least 1:10,000 cells
• Molecular
• Clonal rearrangements of T cell Receptor (TCR) genes
• Clonal rearrangement immunoglobulin (Ig) genes
• Flow cytometry
• Leukemia-associated phenotye (flow)
• FUTURE: high-throughput sequencing universally amplifies
antigen-receptor gene segments: more sensitive; use E1910

Unresolved Issues
• Greater use in Europe; need to penetrate USA & other areas
• Time to perform assay; real-time availability
• Determine optimal methodologies
• Standardization of methodologies and definitions
• Ensure comparability
• Which time points to assay?
• Increased cost; who will pay?
• Effect of change in therapy?
• Transplant (positive) vs no transplant (negative)

ALL CR1 PATIENTS AGE 35-70 YR
Recommendations and *Paradox
• Age <35 yr, enroll on “peds intensity” regimen:
• ? whether abrogates need for transplant
• ? age at which regimen not tolerated by adults
• Age 35-45 yr – gray area, assess risk factors
• strongly consider hematopoietic cell transplant
• Age > 45 yr – consider transplant, possibly RIC
Given greater use of more intensive induction &
consolidation therapy in younger patients:
*potentially more transplants in older patients
