Abstract

Relapsed/refractory (R/R) Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) is difficult to treat, facing a poor prognosis and short overall survival. The usage of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) and immunotherapy has brought new hope for the treatment of R/R Ph+ ALL for patients. This paper retrospectively analyzed a patient with Ph+ ALL experiencing multiple relapses, who was treated with olverembatinib in combination with a reduced dose of inotuzumab ozogamicin. The patient achieved complete response (CR) and minimal residual disease (MRD) negativity upon reexamination two months later, attaining a near-complete molecular response (CMR). A review of relevant literature is included to provide clinical treatment experience.
