Overview
The mainstay of therapy for symptomatic mast cell leukemia patients is immunochemotherapy.[1][2]
Medical Therapy
Therapeutic approaches are limited and consist of reducing the tumor burden and conservation of organ functions.[2]
Corticosteroids
- Corticosteroids have been recommended as a short term use in combination with cytotoxic drugs.[1][2]
- It could also be beneficial in some situations such as:
- Malabsorption
- Ascites
- Anaphylaxis
Interferon-α
Interferon-α reduces the frequency of:[1][2]
- Histamine related attacks
- Decrease bone marrow infiltration by mast cells
- Decrease liver infiltration by mast cells
- Decrease skin manifestations
- Improve osteoporosis
2-Chloro-deoxy-adenosine
2-Chloro-deoxy-adenosine has a potential value in the treatment of mast cell leukemia with symptomatic responses and improvement in mast cell variables.[1][2]
Cladribine
Cladribine has been used in rare cases of mast cell leukemia with relatively small or no efficacy.[1][2]
Imatinib
Imatinib does not have direct effect on the D816V KIT mutation, but it may affect other sporadic mutations.[1][2]
Dasatinib
Dasatinib demonstrates significant inhibitory activity against WT KIT as well as juxtamembrane domain mutant KIT. This activity has been proven in patients negative for D816V KIT.[1][2]
Nilotinib
Nilotinib displays also equipotent activity to imatinib in D816V c-KIT negative patients.[1][2]
