N2 - Patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) have a dismal prognosis. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) provides a curative approach; however, the overall survival (OS) remains low (20% to 40%). In this setting, although some effective approaches have been evaluated in recent years, the management of such patients still remains challenging. In this study we evaluated the predictive role of post-transplant day 100 minimal residual disease (MRD) detection for post-transplantation outcomes for patients with refractory AML. Fifty-six adult patients with refractory AML (median age 58, range 20-76; male, 61%) who underwent allo-SCT were included in this retrospective monocentric study. Twenty-nine patients (52%) received fludarabine, amsacrine, and cytarabine (FLAMSA)-based conditioning. MRD was assessed using multicolored flow cytometry (MFC) according to European Leukemia Net guidelines ("different from normal" and leukemia-associated phenotype). The sensitivity of the method was 10-4 to 10-5. The median marrow blast count at allo-SCT was 25% (range 6% to 91%). At day 100 after transplantation, 40 patients (71%) experienced MFC-MRD negativity, and 16 patients (29%) were MRD positive. All included patients survived at least 100 days after transplantation without relapse. Univariate and multivariate analysis based on Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazards method were performed. The median follow-up was 16 months (range 3 to 66). The post-transplantation day 100 MRD-negative patients instead received 2 allografts (27% versus 6%, P = .08). In multivariate analysis, day 100 MRD status (negative versus positive) (OS: 0.23 [0.1 to 0.54], P =0.001; relapses: 0.20 [0.1 to 0.49], P = .0005) and FLAMSA versus other regimens (0.34 [0.1 to 0.83], P = .018; relapses: 0.43 [0.17 to 1.1], P = .07) independently impacted post-transplantation survival. We suggest that post-transplantation day 100 MFC-MRD detection plays predictive role in refractory AML patients and may help to define possible candidates for early post-transplantation interventions aiming to decrease the relapse risk and improve survival.
