Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
After complete remission, elderly AML patients cannot tolerate hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and standard-dose consolidation chemotherapy, and the 5-year survival rate is around 10%. Therefore, it is necessary to explore treatment strategy that can support chemotherapy or improve immunity. Umbilical cord blood is rich in hematopoietic stem cells and immune cells. However,Cord blood transplantation for adults is still being explored. The application of cord blood in supportive treatment can be actively explored. Cord blood has low immunogenicity and is unlikely to cause Graft versus host disease (GVHD), and the infusion is relatively safe. The Department of Hematology of Shanghai Ruijin Hospital has conducted a related phase II clinical study, and found that cord blood transfusion reduced the chance of infection and increased the 2-year survival. Our subject is a prospective single-arm clinical study. It is planned to recruit 20 elderly AML patients to explore whether the application of cord blood infusion can further improve the prognosis of patients during their consolidation chemotherapy.
