Abstract

Objectıve: Demographic features, treatment endications, responds to treatment of 114 chronic lymphocytic leukemia patients observed in years of 2000-2011 on hematology department of Dokuz Eylül University Medical Faculty have been analyzed in our study. Methods: Features of 114 CLL patients were evaluated retrospectively. Results: In 60 patients were male (%52.6), 54 patients were female(%47.4). The median age was 64. While 61 patients were being observed without treatment, 53 patients were under medical treatment. The therapy free survival was 15.57 months. Chlorambucil was the most prefered drug on the first line therapy (%62). In the evaluation first line chemotherapy; partial remission for 40, complete remission for 5, stable disease for 7, progression for 1 patient was observed.Progression free survival was 18 months. 25 patients have second line therapy. The progression free survival of the second line therapy was 6.23 months. The third line therapy was given to 6 patients, the progression free survival of the third line therapy was 5,5 months. At the end of the study overall survival was 92.8 months. For the patients whose Rai and Binet stage is high, therapy free survival and progression free survival 1 time is shorter (p<0.05). During the study deaths of the 14 patients were related to the CLL and 9 patients related to another reasons. Conclusıon: Demographic features of patients are similar to other studies. Causes of shorter survival time in therapy group may be related to lack of using modern prognostic markers in our center, lack of using monoclonal antibodies on the first line therapy and poor patient adaptation to treatment

Özet

Amaç: Çalışmamızda 2000-2011 yılları arasında Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Hematoloj Bilim Dalı tarafından takip edilen 114 hastanın demografik verileri, tedavi endikasyonları, tedavi yanıtları ve total sağ kalım analizlerinin yapılması amaçlandı. Yöntemler: Kronik lenfoblastik lösemi tanısıyla takip edilen 114 hastanın verileri geriye dönük olarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Hastaların 60’ı erkek (%52,6), 54’ü kadındı (%47,4). Ortanca yaş 64 olarak saptandı. 61 hasta tedavisiz izlenirken 53 hasta tedavi aldı. Tanıdan ilk tedaviye kadar geçen süre ortalama 15,57 ay idi. İlk sıra kemoterapide en sık klorambusil kullanıldı (%62). Hastaların ilk sıra kemoterapi sonrası yapılan değerlendirmelerinde 40 hastada kısmi yanıt, 5 tam yanıt, 7 stabil hastalık ve 1 hastada progresyon izlendi ve progresyonsuz sağ kalım ortalaması 18 ay olarak bulundu. 25 hasta ikinci sıra kemoterapi aldı. İkinci sıra kemoterapinin progresyonsuz sağ kalım ortalaması 6,23 ay olarak hesaplandı. 6 hastaya üçüncü sıra kemoterapi verildi ve üçüncü sıra kemoterapinin progresyonsuz sağ kalım ortalaması 5,5 ay idi. Çalışma sonunda 114 hastanın ortalama toplam sağ kalım süreleri 92,8 ay olarak hesaplandı. Rai ve Binet evresi yüksek olan hastalarda tedavisiz sağ kalım ve progresyonsuz sağ kalım sürelerinin kısaldığı görüldü (p<0,05). Çalışma süresinde 14 hasta hastalık ilişkili nedenlerle 9 hasta hastalık dışı nedenlerle hayatını kaybetti. Sonuç: Hastalarımızın demografik özellikleri diğer çalışmalarla benzer iken tedavi alan hastalarda toplam sağ kalım süresinin daha kısa olmasının nedeni gelişmiş prognostik belirteçlerin merkezimizde kullanılmaması, ilk sıra tedavilerde monoklonal antikorların yer almaması ve yetersiz hasta uyumu olabilir.
