Acute Myeloid Leukemia Harboring the t(16;21)(p11;q22) Translocation Treated With Venetoclax Plus Azacitidine After Cord Blood Transplantation

A 62-year-old female was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t(16;21)(p11;q22). She achieved complete hematological remission after induction therapy and underwent umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation (CBT). At 150 days after the CBT, a bone marrow examination revealed relapse...

description A 62-year-old female was diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with t(16;21)(p11;q22). She achieved complete hematological remission after induction therapy and underwent umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation (CBT). At 150 days after the CBT, a bone marrow examination revealed relapse. We treated the patient with venetoclax plus azacitidine as salvage therapy. After five cycles of venetoclax and azacitidine therapy, the patient died due to disease progression. The prognosis of AML with t(16;21)(p11;q22) is very poor owing to the high rate of early relapse even after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Therefore, a novel therapeutic approach is required to improve patient outcomes.
