我们在此重点介绍了慢性粒细胞白血病(CML)治疗后出现的烟雾病(MMD)病例。Moyamoya,一个术语在日语中的意思是“朦胧的烟雾”,表示慢性闭塞性脑血管疾病,涉及颈内动脉(ICAs)末端部分的双侧狭窄或闭合以及大脑前动脉(ACAs)和大脑中动脉(MCAs)的近端部分,导致异常血管的发展。一名40岁的非洲裔美国女性,既往有CML病史,因表达性失语症出现在肿瘤诊所。值得注意的是,她在8年前被诊断为CML,之前曾接受达沙替尼和尼洛替尼治疗,但仅部分缓解.她的T315I突变检测呈阳性,并在症状出现前约一个月开始接受阿司替尼治疗。阿西替尼,一种针对断点簇区的变构抑制剂-阿贝尔森小鼠白血病1(BCR-ABL1)激酶活性,已获得批准用于治疗被诊断为慢性期CML的患者,这些患者对先前的两种疗法均无反应,或用于携带T315I突变的患者。入院期间,患者接受了脑部磁共振成像(MRI)和头部计算机断层扫描(CT)血管造影显示双侧MCA和ACA起源的中度至重度狭窄,关于烟雾综合症。虽然与阿西替尼治疗没有经典联系,我们在此报道了一名CML患者,他在开始用药1个月后出现了表达性失语症.由于怀疑指数高,阿西替尼被停用,患者被转介接受骨髓移植评估,并同时开始接受阿糖胞苷+聚乙二醇干扰素治疗。停药后,患者的失语症症状有所改善,并恢复到基线功能状态。目前文献中没有报道与使用阿西替尼相关的心血管副作用。然而,我们已经描述了这种情况。因此,对于有危险因素或有卒中既往史的患者,应格外谨慎.
We highlight here a case of Moyamoya disease (MMD) developed after treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Moyamoya, a term meaning \"a hazy puff of smoke\" in Japanese, denotes a chronic occlusive cerebrovascular condition involving bilateral stenosis or closure of the terminal part of the internal carotid arteries (ICAs) and the proximal sections of the anterior cerebral arteries (ACAs) and middle cerebral arteries (MCAs) resulting in the development of abnormal vascular collaterals. A 40-year-old African-American female with a past medical history of CML presented to the oncology clinic with expressive aphasia. Of note, she was diagnosed with CML eight years ago and was previously treated with dasatinib and nilotinib with only partial remission. She tested positive for the T315I mutation and was initiated on asciminib therapy about a month before her symptoms surfaced. Asciminib, an allosteric inhibitor targeting breakpoint cluster region-abelson murine leukemia 1 (BCR-ABL1) kinase activity, has gained approval for treating patients diagnosed with chronic-phase CML who have not responded to two prior lines of therapy or for those carrying the T315I mutation. During admission, the patient underwent brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a computed tomography (CT) angiogram of the head showed moderate to severe narrowing at the origins of the bilateral MCA and ACA, concerning Moyamoya syndrome. Although not classically associated with asciminib therapy, we report here a patient with CML who developed expressive aphasia one month after starting the medication. Due to the high index of suspicion, asciminib was discontinued, and the patient was referred for bone marrow transplant evaluation and concurrently started on cytarabine + peginterferon. The patient had improvement in her symptoms of aphasia after the drug was discontinued and returned to her baseline functional status. No cardiovascular side effects associated with the use of asciminib are currently reported in the literature. However, we have described a case of such an occurrence. Therefore, extra caution should be taken in prescribing asciminib in patients with risk factors or a prior history of stroke.
