Complications:
Prognosis:
Apart from AMKL in Down syndrome patients, the prognosis of AMKL is poor. The efficacy profile of AMKL in Down syndrome patients is favorable, but it comes with a lot of treatment-related toxicity.
- According to the Children’s Oncology Group (COG) AML0431 trial results, the 5-year event-free survival and overall survival rates were 90% and 93% in 204 eligible Down syndrome with AMKL patients.[1]
- Similarly, the reported 3-year overall survival rate was 100% among 3 AMKL with Down syndrome patients while (47±12%) in non-Down syndrome patients.[2]
- The 5-year overall survival rate in AMKL was 10.6% versus 17.5% in non-M7 Acute Myeloid leukemia subtypes.[3] Currently, chemotherapy and Allo-BMT are main therapy. Treatment-related toxicity is a big challenge. To address this issue, elaborated large future clinical studies are required.
