Résumé

The last decade has seen advances in delivering outpatient consolidation therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). The standard of care involves high-dose cytarabine or intermediate-dose cytarabine, given twice daily for three alternating days. At the London Regional Cancer Program, we have transitioned the administration of outpatient cytarabine to a once-daily regimen over six consecutive days. The outcomes of a longer duration interval of high-dose cytarabine and intermediate-dose cytarabine is currently unknown. This study aims to assess the feasibility of administering a continuous 6-day protocol of high-dose (HDAC-16) and intermediate-dose cytarabine (IDAC-16) consolidation therapy in the outpatient setting. This is a retrospective chart review to analyze AML patients treated with outpatient high-dose or intermediate-dose cytarabine consolidation therapy at the London Regional Cancer Program from January 1, 2019, through November 1, 2022. The primary objective was to determine the outcomes of the 6-day outpatient administration of once daily high-dose cytarabine or intermediate-dose cytarabine. Forty-five patients received 89 cycles of cytarabine as outpatients; males were 55.6% of the total population, with a median age of ~57 years. Our overall 2-year survival of HDAC-16 (57.1%) and IDAC-16 (83.3%) is consistent with the reported literature. There was no difference in delays, relapse rates, and nonrelapse mortality between both HDAC and IDAC groups. The 2-year relapse free survival was 57.1% for HDAC-16 and 66.7% for IDAC-16. Outpatient administration of intermediate-dose cytarabine once daily over six consecutive days results in similar overall survival and relapse rates as compared to high dose cytarabine consolidation chemotherapy. Moving to a once daily administration schedule can alleviate logistical and/or accessibility hurdles for outpatient oncology clinics. Prospective randomized trials are needed in this setting to validate our results.
