የሕክምና እቅድ ለ11 ዓመት ልጅ ከከፍተኛ ሉኪሚያ (HR-ALL) ጋር

ይህ ልጅ በአስቸኳይ BFM-አይነት 4-መድሃኒት induction chemotherapy መጀመር አለበት፣ ይህም vincristine፣ dexamethasone፣ anthracycline (daunorubicin ወይም doxorubicin)፣ እና L-asparaginase/pegaspargase ያካትታል፣ ከጠንካራ supportive care እና የኢንፌክሽን ህክምና ጋር። 1, 2

የአደጋ ደረጃ ግምገማ

ይህ ታካሚ ከፍተኛ-አደጋ (High-Risk) ALL አለው በሚከተሉት ምክንያቶች:

• Hyperleukocytosis (WBC 212.3 × 10⁹/L) - ከ30 × 10⁹/L በላይ ለB-cell ALL 2
• ዕድሜ 11 ዓመት - ከ10 ዓመት በላይ የሆኑ ልጆች የከፋ prognosis አላቸው 1, 2
• የአጥንት metastasis (left proximal tibial mass) 1
• Organomegaly (spleen 10cm, liver 2cm) 1

የአስቸኳይ ጊዜ ማስተዳደር (የመጀመሪያዎቹ 24-48 ሰዓታት)

1. Hyperleukocytosis Management

• Hydration: IV fluids በከፍተኛ መጠን (2-3 ጊዜ maintenance) ለtumor lysis syndrome መከላከል 1
• Allopurinol: አሁን መጀመር አለበት (በአሁኑ ጊዜ on hold ነው) - 300mg/m²/day PO ለuric acid nephropathy መከላከል 3, 1
• Rasburicase: ከፍተኛ uric acid (5.9) እና LDH (2335) ካለ ግምት ውስጥ ማስገባት 1
• Leukapheresis: ለclinical leukostasis (የመተንፈስ ችግር፣ የነርቭ ስርዓት ምልክቶች) ካለ ብቻ - በዚህ ጉዳይ ላይ አሁን አያስፈልግም 4

2. የደም ምርቶች ድጋፍ

• Platelet transfusion: ≥30-50 × 10⁹/L ለመጠበቅ (አሁን 29 × 10⁹/L) - ከchemotherapy በፊት ማስተካከል አስፈላጊ ነው 1
• PRBC transfusion: Hemoglobin ≥7-8 g/dL ለመጠበቅ (አሁን 4.2 g/dL) 1
• Intrathecal therapy (IT-MTX): platelet count ≥50 × 10⁹/L እስኪሆን ድረስ መጠበቅ አለበት 1

3. የኢንፌክሽን ቁጥጥር

• Ceftriaxone 1g IV BID መቀጠል ለcellulitis (በአሁኑ ጊዜ day 7) 1
• Cotrimoxazole prophylaxis መቀጠል ለPneumocystis jirovecii 1, 2
• Chlorhexidine mouth wash መቀጠል ለmucositis መከላከል 1

የInduction Chemotherapy ፕሮቶኮል

BFM-Type 4-Drug Induction (የመጀመሪያ 4-6 ሳምንታት)

1. Vincristine: 1.5 mg/m² IV (maximum 2mg) weekly × 4 doses 2, 5

• BSA = 1.39 m² → 2.1 mg IV weekly (capped at 2mg = 2mg IV weekly)
• የነርቭ ስርዓት toxicity (peripheral neuropathy, constipation) መከታተል 5

2. Dexamethasone:

• አሁን 60mg/m²/day = 83mg/day PO በ4 ተከፋፍሎ (QID) እየተሰጠ ነው - ይህ ትክክል ነው 2, 6
• Dexamethasone ከprednisone የተሻለ ነው ለCNS relapse መከላከል፣ ግን ከፍተኛ infection risk አለው 2
• ጥንቃቄ: hyperglycemia፣ hypertension፣ psychiatric symptoms፣ infections መከታተል 6

3. Anthracycline (Daunorubicin ወይም Doxorubicin):

• Daunorubicin 25-30 mg/m² IV weekly × 4 doses (preferred) 2, 1
• BSA = 1.39 m² → 35-42 mg IV weekly
• ወይም Doxorubicin 30 mg/m² IV weekly × 4 doses 2
• Cardiac monitoring (echocardiogram) በinduction በፊት እና በኋላ 4

4. L-Asparaginase/Pegaspargase:

• Pegaspargase 2,500 units/m² IM/IV በየ2 ሳምንት (preferred) 2, 1
• BSA = 1.39 m² → 3,475 units IM/IV በየ2 ሳምንት
• ወይም L-asparaginase 6,000-10,000 units/m² IM/IV 3× per week 2
• Pancreatitis፣ hepatotoxicity፣ coagulopathy፣ allergic reactions መከታተል 1

የመድሃኒት መስተጋብር ማስጠንቀቂያ

• Vincristine + CYP3A inhibitors (itraconazole፣ fluconazole): የነርቭ ስርዓት toxicity ይጨምራል - ማስወገድ 5
• Dexamethasone + phenytoin: seizure control ይቀንሳል 5

የCNS Prophylaxis

• Intrathecal methotrexate (IT-MTX): platelet count ≥50 × 10⁹/L ሲሆን መጀመር 1
  • Age-adjusted dose: 12 mg IT በየ1-2 ሳምንት በinduction ወቅት 1, 2
• CSF cytology: በመጀመሪያው IT-MTX ጊዜ መላክ 1

የምላሽ ግምገማ

Day 8-15 Assessment

• Peripheral blood blast count: የቀደመ ምላሽ ለመገምገም 1, 2
• Bone marrow aspiration (Day 15-21): morphologic remission መፈተሽ 1, 2

Day 29-35 End-of-Induction Assessment

• Bone marrow aspiration + MRD testing:
  • MRD negativity (<0.01%) = በጣም ጥሩ prognosis 1, 2
  • MRD positivity = ተጨማሪ intensive therapy ያስፈልጋል 1
• Complete remission (CR): <5% blasts in bone marrow 1, 2

የConsolidation እና Maintenance Therapy

ከInduction በኋላ (CR ከተገኘ)

• Consolidation: high-dose methotrexate + cytarabine cycles 1, 2
• Delayed intensification (reinduction): vincristine + anthracycline + asparaginase + dexamethasone 1, 2
