Severe Hypertriglyceridemia

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a serious complication of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) therapy. The aim of this population-based study was to evaluate the rate, risk factors, and long-term sequelae of VTE in children treated for ALL. The cohort included 1191 children aged 1–19 years diagnosed with ALL between 2003–2018, prospectively enrolled in two consecutive protocols: ALL-IC BFM 2002 and AIEOP-BFM ALL 2009. VTEs occurred in 89 patients (7.5%). Long-term sequelae were uncommon. By univariate analysis, we identified four significant risk factors for VTEs: Severe hypertriglyceridemia (p = 0.005), inherited thrombophilia (p < 0.001), age >10 years (p = 0.015), and high-risk ALL group (p = 0.039). In addition, the incidence of VTE was significantly higher in patients enrolled in AIEOP-BFM ALL 2009 than in those enrolled in ALL-IC BFM 2002 (p = 0.001). Severe VTE occurred in 24 children (2%), all of whom had at least one risk factor. Elevated triglyceride levels at diagnosis did not predict hypertriglyceridemia during therapy. In a multivariate analysis of 388 children, severe hypertriglyceridemia and inherited thrombophilia were independent risk factors for VTE. Routine evaluation for these risk factors in children treated for ALL may help identify candidates for intervention.

Pegaspargase, a long acting formulation of L-asparaginase, is an asparagine specific enzyme that selectively kills leukemic cells by depleting plasma asparagine. Pegaspargase is FDA approved for the first-line treatment of adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia and is a critical component of numerous multi-chemotherapeutic regimens. Pegaspargase is associated with well-described toxicities including hypersensitivity reactions, hepatotoxicity, and thrombosis. However, hypertriglyceridemia is a much rarer complication of pegaspargase and has only been described in a limited number of reports. We present a case of severe hypertriglyceridemia after a single dose of pegaspargase. The patient was re-challenged with pegaspargase and again developed hypertriglyceridemia which was complicated by pancreatitis. Here, we summarize published reports and a literature review describing the incidence of pegaspargase-induced hypertriglyceridemia in common acute lymphoblastic leukemia protocols.
