1 Granulozytensupport in der Therapie der akuten Leukämie, eine Chance? Volker Witt in cooperation with TFM MUW Vienna

2 Anti-infective prophylaxis in pediatric patients with acute myeloid leukemia. Lehrnbecher T 1, Sung L. Expert Rev Hematol Dec;7(6): doi: / Epub 2014 Oct 31. Abstract Pediatric patients undergoing treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) are at high risk for infectious complications, predominantly due to Gram-negative bacteria, viridans group streptococci and fungal pathogens. In order to prevent infections in these patients, most institutions have implemented a number of non-pharmacological approaches to supportive care. In addition, antibiotic prophylaxis reduces bacterial infection, but may increase the emergence of resistance. Antifungal prophylaxis is generally recommended for children with AML. Whereas the use of hematopoietic growth factors has not resulted in improved survival, the efficacy of prophylactic granulocyte transfusions has to be determined.

5 How does it work collecting Granuloycyte concentrates plus HAES 6% to spread the lyers of platelets, Lymphocytes, Monocytes and Granulocytes => absolute necessary

7 Who donates GT Volunteer donors Unrelated donors Mobilization with dexamethason 4 8 mg p.o. 8 h before donation Maximum 2 4 times a year due to the exposure to HAES 6% Family donors Related donors Mobilization with GCSF 5µg/kg 12 8 h before donation s.c. Maximum 5 times in one mobilization course due to the exposure to HAES 6% and GCSF

44 Outcome and pathogen

45 Outcome regarding to the condition of neutropenia

46 retrospective study, 10 year, single center cohort

47 conclusion There is still no randomized controlled trial in pediatric patients which shows clearly an advantage for GT in life threatening infections During the last 15 years empiric data suggest consistent the possible benefit of GT in life threatening infectious complications especially in local infections +/- Sepsis, but not in SIRS and MOF There are no consistent data about HLA, HNA, HPA before and after GT use in pediatric patients
