Alectinib maintenance therapy following cord blood transplantation for relapsed pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma with central nervous system involvement
摘要
Pediatric ALK-positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and approximately 30% of patients relapse following treatment with conventional chemotherapy. Alectinib monotherapy has demonstrated excellent activity in relapsed and refractory ALCL, but its role as a maintenance therapy after hematopoietic cell transplantation is unclear. We experienced a relapse case of pediatric ALK-positive ALCL with central nervous system involvement treated with alectinib maintenance therapy following cord blood transplantation. The patient has maintained complete remission for more than 3 years after transplantation. There were no remarkable adverse effects that led to discontinuation of alectinib.
