ABSTRACT
Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) has cured many patients with malignant hematologic diseases such as mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL), while those relapsing after allo-HSCT still exhibit high mortality, poor prognosis, and no standard treatment modalities. It is necessary to explore more therapeutic modalities for post-transplant relapse obtain a better prognosis. Case presentation In this case report, young male MPAL received reaching complete remission (CR) by induction chemotherapy. Unfortunately, of both myeloid T lineages occurred nine months later. After receiving demethylating chemotherapy, lineage measurable residual disease (MRD) turned negative. T-lineage MRD negative CD7-targeted chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T therapy. The bone marrow remained MRD-negative 4 months. This preliminarily demonstrated long-lasting CR CAR-T therapy, allowing Conclusion Demethylating drugs combined therapy feasible in treating transplantation, good efficacy safety, which will be promising option MPAL.
