PURPOSE We retrospectively analyzed the outcome of children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR) who received HLA-identical bone marrow transplantation (BMT) in 13 French transplant centers. PATIENTS AND METHODS Seventy-four children were treated from June 1979 through December 1990. The conditioning regimen included total-body irradiation (TBI) in 54 cases and busulfan in 20. Prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) consisted of cyclosporine (CycloA) plus methotrexate (MTX) for 38 patients, MTX for 17, CycloA for 18, and T depletion without other prophylaxis for one. The mean value of the interval from diagnosis to transplantation was 167 days. RESULTS Sixteen patients died of transplant-related complications, 12 relapsed, and 46 are alive in continuous remission with a median follow-up of 46 months. We examined results obtained over three successive periods: 1979 to 1982 (n = 14 children), 1983 to 1986 (n = 29), and 1987 to 1990 (n = 31). Probabilities of event-free survival (EFS) were 43%, 48%, and 82% for the three successive periods, respectively (P < .02). This improvement in EFS was linked to a decreased risk of transplant-related mortality: 36%, 36%, and 3%, respectively (P < .01). Other factors associated with a better EFS in the univariate analysis were a short time interval from diagnosis to transplant (< 120 days), the absence of significant (grade > or = 2) acute GVHD, and the absence of chronic GVHD. In the multivariate analysis, two factors had a favorable impact on long-term survival: the year of transplantation (years 1987 to 1990 v others) and the absence of acute GVHD. CONCLUSION The outcome for children receiving allogeneic BMT in first CR of AML has improved in France during recent years.
