[Efficacy comparison between Ph⁺ ALL patients treated with chemotherapyplus tyrosine kinase inhibitors followed by allo-HSCT and Ph-ALL patients with allo-HSCT: a case control study from a single center].

Objective: To compare the efficacy of the Ph⁺ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)patients treated with combination of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI)and chemotherapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and Ph⁻ ALL patients with allo-HSCT.

Methods: A total of 19 Ph⁺ALL patients were matched with 19 Ph⁻ALL patients from 55 B-ALL patients receiving allo-HSCT in our hospital between January 2003 and August 2014 and were analyzed retrospectively.

Results: Gender, median age, number of patients with blood white count more than 30 × 10⁹/L, number of patients with meningeal leukemia, disease status before allo-HSCT, period of allo-HSCT, the source of stem cell from donors, HLA disparities between donor and recipient, conditioning regimens and number of infused mononuclear cells and CD34⁺ cells were comparable between two groups of Ph⁺ and 19 Ph⁻ALL patients.
