Minimal Residual Disease Eradication by Azacitidine Maintenance in a Patient with Core-Binding Factor Acute Myeloid Leukemia

Although core-binding factor AML (CBF-AML) has a favorable outcome, disease relapses occur in up to 35% of patients. Minimal residual disease (MRD) monitoring is one of the important tools to enable us to identify patients at high risk of relapse. Real-time quantitative PCR allows MRD to be measured with high sensitivity in CBF-AML. If the patient with CBF-AML is in complete morphologic remission but MRD positive at the end of treatment, what to do for those is still uncertain. Preemptive intervention approaches such as allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or intensive chemotherapy could be an option or another strategy might be just follow-up until overt relapse developed. Although using hypomethylating agents as a maintenance therapy has not been widely explored, here, we r...
