Reduced-intensity stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia with fludarabine-based conditioning with intravenous busulfan versus melphalan
Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) has been facilitating allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for patients originally considered ineligible for HCT with myeloablative conditioning. Fludarabine (Flu) with reduced doses of busulfan (Bu) (Flu + Bu) and Flu with reduced doses of me...

Summary: | Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) has been facilitating allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for patients originally considered ineligible for HCT with myeloablative conditioning. Fludarabine (Flu) with reduced doses of busulfan (Bu) (Flu + Bu) and Flu with reduced doses of melphalan (Mel) (Flu + Mel) are widely used RIC regimens for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A nationwide retrospective study comparing clinical outcomes of adult patients with AML receiving first allo-HCT after RIC between 2001 and 2010 was performed. Cumulative incidences of relapse were not significantly different among the Flu + ivBu-based (FBiv), Flu + poBu-based (FBpo), and Flu + Mel-based (FM) groups (
p
= 0.29). Non-relapse mortality (NRM) was significantly lower in patients receiving FBiv compared with FBpo (
p
= 0.003) and FM (
