Abstract

Blastic Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cell Neoplasm (BPDCN) is a very rare type of leukemia in children, Although BPDCN is a chemo-sensitive tumor, the relapse rate is very high. Tagraxofusp, which is a CD123-directed cytotoxin has been used as a targeted therapy and has shown promising results in patients with either untreated or relapsed BPDCN. There is also a good response with Venetoclax, a selective BCL2 inhibitor, as a single agent or in combination with chemotherapy. Here, we described a case of a pediatric patient with BPDCN who was treated initially with ALL-based regimen followed by Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) and salvaged with Hyper-CVAD combined with Venetoclax after testicular relapse 11 months post Allogeneic HSCT. © 2022 The Authors
