Long-Term Outcomes of Patients with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia Treated with Myeloablative Fractionated Total Body Irradiation TBI-Based Conditioning with a Tacrolimus- and Sirolimus-Based Graft-versus-Host Disease Prophylaxis Regimen: 6-Year Follow-Up from a Single Center.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide (Cy)/etoposide combined with fractionated total body irradiation (FTBI) or i.v. busulfan (Bu) has been the main conditioning regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for young patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) eligible for a myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen. Recent data has suggested that i.v. Bu could be the preferred myeloablative regimen in patients with myeloid malignancies. However, Bu-based regimens are associated with higher rates of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome. Here we report long-term survival outcomes of patients with AML receiving FTBI combined with Cy or etoposide before undergoing alloHCT at City of Hope (COH). We obtained a retrospective review of a prospectively maintained institutional registry of clinical outcomes in 167 patients (median age, 41 years; range, 18 to 57 years) with AML in first or second complete remission who underwent alloHCT at COH between 2005 and 2015. Eligible patients received a MAC regimen with FTBI (1320 cGy) and Cy (120 mg/kg) for unrelated donor transplantation or etoposide (60 mg/kg) for related donor transplantation. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was provided with tacrolimus and sirolimus. In this retrospective study, 6-year overall survival was 60% and nonrelapse mortality was 15%. The GRFS rate was 45% at 1 year and 39% at 2 years. We also describe late metabolic effects and report the cumulative incidence of secondary malignancies (9.5%). Overall, in this young adult patient population, our results compare favorably to chemotherapy-based (i.v. Bu) conditioning regimens without significant long-term toxicity arising from TBI-based regimens.
