Abstract
As cellular therapies gradually become the mainstay of treatment for several nonmalignant diseases, there appears to be varied accessibility to these therapies globally. Despite considerable burden of nonmalignant conditions, such as sickle cell disease, thalassemia, and aplastic anemia in populations of low-middle-income countries, the utilization of cellular therapies remain sparse because of lack of resources. Globally, the frequency of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has increased disproportionately in countries with higher gross national income (GNI) per capita, governmental healthcare expenditures, and a high human development index. This leads to a large subset of international patients seeking care in the United States. This review summarizes the unique set of challenges that often arise when offering sophisticated therapies such as HSCT to international patients constituting of cross-cultural, logistical, financial, and medical challenges and the opportunities that are available to bridge the gap.

Wu R, Ma L. BeEAM (Bendamustine, Etoposide, Cytarabine, Melphalan) Versus BEAM (Carmustine, Etoposide, Cytarabine, Melphalan) as Conditioning Regimen Before Autologous Haematopoietic Cell Transplantation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. Cell Transplant 2023; 32:9636897231179364. [PMID: 37350429 PMCID: PMC10291416 DOI: 10.1177/09636897231179364] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/13/2023] [Revised: 05/03/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 06/24/2023] Open
Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a standard of care for selected patients with refractory/relapsed Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) or non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), and it is also used as first-line clinical consolidation option for some aggressive NHL subtypes. Conditioning regimen prior to ASCT is one of the essential factors related with clinical outcomes post transplant. The conditioning regimen of carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) traditionally is considered the standard of care for patients with lymphoma who are eligible for transplantation. Replacement of carmustine with bendamustine (BeEAM) was described as an alternative conditioning regimen in the autograft setting for patients with lymphoma. Several studies have reported inconsistent clinical outcomes comparing BeEAM and BEAM. Therefore, in the lack of well-designed prospective comparative studies, the comparison of BeEAM versus BEAM is based on retrospective trials. To compare the clinical outcomes between BeEAM and BEAM, we performed a meta-analysis of 10 studies which compared the outcomes between BeEAM and BEAM in patients autografted for lymphoma disease (HL or NHL). We searched article titles and compared transplantation with BeEAM versus BEAM in MEDLINE (PubMed), Cochrane library, and EMBASE database. Here, we report the results of nine main endpoints in our meta-analysis comparing BeEAM and BEAM, including neutrophil engraftment (NE), platelet engraftment (PE), overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), non-relapse mortality (NRM), relapse rate (RR), grade 3 mucositis, renal toxicity, and cardiotoxicity. We discovered that the BeEAM regimen was associated with a slightly better PFS [pooled odds ratio (OR) of 0.70, 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.52-0.94, P = 0.02], lower RR (0.49, 95% CI, 0.31-0.76, P = 0.002), higher mucositis (3.43, 95% CI, 2.29-5.16, P = 0.001), renal toxicity (4.49, 95% CI, 2.68-7.51, P = 0.001), and cardiotoxicity (1.88, 95% CI, 1.03-3.40, P = 0.03). We also discovered that the two groups had equivalent NE (pooled WMD -0.64, 95% CI, -1.46 to 0.18, P = 0.13), PE (pooled WMD -0.3, 95% CI, -1.68 to 2.28, P = 0.77), OS (0.73, 95% CI, 0.52-1.01, P = 0.07), and NRM (1.51, 95% CI, 0.76-2.98, P = 0.24). The results of this meta-analysis show that the BeEAM regimen is a viable alternative to BEAM. More prospective comparisons between BeEAM and BEAM are required.

Interstitial lung diseases after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: New pattern of lung chronic graft-versus-host disease? Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:87-93. [PMID: 36309588 PMCID: PMC9812763 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-022-01859-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2021] [Revised: 10/03/2022] [Accepted: 10/14/2022] [Indexed: 01/10/2023]
Abstract
Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after allogeneic HSCT is the only formally recognized manifestation of lung chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Other lung complications were reported, including interstitial lung diseases (ILDs). Whether ILDs belong to the spectrum of lung cGVHD remains unknown. We compared characteristics and specific risk factors for both ILD and BOS. Data collected from consecutive patients diagnosed with ILD or BOS from 1981-2019 were analyzed. The strength of the association between patient characteristics and ILD occurrence was measured via odds ratios estimated from univariable logistic models. Multivariable models allowed us to handle potential confounding variables. Overall survival (OS) was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method. 238 patients were included: 79 with ILD and 159 with BOS. At diagnosis, FEV1 was lower in patients with BOS compared to patients with ILD, while DLCO was lower in ILD. 84% of ILD patients received systemic corticosteroids, leading to improved CT scans and pulmonary function, whereas most BOS patients were treated by inhaled corticosteroids, with lung-function stabilization. In the multivariable analysis, prior thoracic irradiation and absence of prior treatment with prednisone were associated with ILD. OS was similar, even if hematological relapse was more frequent in the ILD group. Both complications occurred mainly in patients with GVHD history.

Abstract
Members of the order Enterobacterales, including Escherichia coli , Klebsiella species and Enterobacter species, are important pathogens in healthcare-associated infections. Higher mortality has been reported from infections due to Klebsiella pneumoniae than from E. coli , but prior studies comparing Enterobacter aerogenes (recently renamed Klebsiella aerogenes ) bacteraemia and Enterobacter cloacae complex bacteraemia have yielded conflicting results regarding whether clinical outcomes differ. We found bacteraemia with K. aerogenes was independently associated with greater risk of 30-day mortality than bacteraemia with Enterobacter cloacae complex.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The Canadian Blood Services Cord Blood Bank (CBS CBB) was created to improve access to stem cell products for transplantation for patients across ethnic groups. An analysis of distributed units is needed to assess the effectiveness of the bank to meet the needs of patients from different ethnic groups. METHODS A descriptive analysis was performed on all cord blood units distributed from the CBS' CBB as of 30 June 2022. RESULTS Distribution of the first 60 units based on CBS' CBB inventory has been linear over time. A similar proportion of cord blood unit (CBU) recipients were pediatric or adult. More than half of the cord blood units (56.7%) were distributed to recipients outside of Canada, and CBUs were used to treat a broad range of hematologic and immune disorders. 43.3% of distributed CBUs were of non-Caucasian ethnicity and 18% were from donors self-reporting as multi-ethnic. The mean total nucleated cell counts and total CD34+ cell counts were 1.9 ± 0.1 × 109 cells and 5.3 ± 0.5 × 106 CD34+ cells, respectively. CD34+ cells per kg (recipient weight) varied significantly between pediatric (age 0-4), adolescent (age 5-17) and adult recipients (age 18 and older) (3.1 ± 0.5, 1.4 ± 0.5 and 0.9 ± 0.07 × 105 CD34+ cells/kg, respectively). HLA matching was 6/6 (15%), 5/6 (47%) or 4/6 (38%). CONCLUSIONS The CBS' CBB has facilitated the utilization of banked units for patients across a broad range of ages, geographic distribution, ethnicity, and diseases. Distributed units were well matched for HLA alleles and contained robust cell counts, reflecting a high-quality inventory with significant utility.

Abstract
Individuals with primary immunodeficiency (PIDD) experience not only infectious complications but also immune dysregulation leading to autoimmunity, inflammation, and lymphoproliferative manifestations. Management of these complications often requires treatment with additional immunosuppressive medications, which pose an additional risk of infectious complications. Immunosuppression in individuals with PIDD therefore requires careful assessment and consideration of risks and benefits. Medications should be closely monitored, and strategies for risk mitigation of adverse events considered, such as exposure reduction, appropriate vaccination, use of antibiotics/antivirals, and optimization of immunoglobulin replacement therapy. In a subset of individuals who are not tolerating immune modulation or experiencing disease progression despite appropriate interventions, hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation is a management option.

Abstract
The American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) and the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) have formed the ACCESS Initiative to address and reduce barriers to hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and cellular therapy (CT) in an effort to ensure equal access and outcomes for all patients in need. In addition to cellular therapy physicians, the initiative includes program administrators, health policy and health equity experts, health service researchers, participants from commercial payer organizations, and federal stakeholders. The inaugural ASTCT-NMDP ACCESS Workshop was held in Washington, DC on July 28 and 29, 2022, wherein committee members met to discuss and to define goals for 3 focus areas: awareness, poverty, and racial and ethnic inequity. This position paper reviews the mission, vision, and structure of the ACCESS Initiative and the proceedings from the inaugural workshop and provides an initial roadmap for the group's efforts at reducing access barriers and outcome disparities in HCT/CT.

Abstract
Historically, Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has been associated with poor outcomes, and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is recommended in first complete remission (CR1). However, in the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) era, rapid attainment of a complete molecular remission (CMR) is associated with excellent outcomes without allo-HCT, suggesting transplant may not be required for these patients. To test this hypothesis, we retrospectively identified adult patients with Ph+ ALL treated with induction therapy, including TKIs, and attained CMR within 90 days of diagnosis at 5 transplant centers in the United States. We compared outcomes of those who did and did not receive allo-HCT in first remission. We identified 230 patients (allo-HCT: 98; non-HCT: 132). The allo-HCT cohort was younger with better performance status. On multivariable analysis (MVA), allo-HCT was not associated with improved overall survival (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]: 1.05; 95% CI, 0.63-1.73) or relapse-free survival (aHR: 0.86; 95% CI, 0.54-1.37) compared with non-HCT treatment. Allo-HCT was associated with a lower cumulative incidence of relapse (aHR: 0.32; 95% CI, 0.17-0.62) but higher non-relapse mortality (aHR: 2.59; 95% CI, 1.37-4.89). Propensity score matching analysis confirmed results of MVA. Comparison of reduced-intensity HCT to non-HCT showed no statistically significant difference in any of the above endpoints. In conclusion, adult patients with Ph+ ALL who achieved CMR within 90 days of starting treatment did not derive a survival benefit from allo-HCT in CR1 in this retrospective study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The role of consolidation therapy with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in first complete remission (CR1) or partial remission (PR1) remains controversial. The existing data from China are limited. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the effect of ASCT on the survival of Chinese patients with PTCL showing response to induction chemotherapy at our hospital. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the data of patients with PTCL (excluding Natural killer/T cell lymphoma) in CR1 or PR1 treated at Peking University Hospital &Institute from 1996 to 2020. Propensity score matching (PSM) was used to balance clinical characteristics between the ASCT and non-ASCT groups. The primary endpoints were event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS). RESULTS Of the 414 selected patients, 73 received ASCT consolidation and 341 did not. Over a median follow-up of 5.7 years, survival was significantly better in the ASCT group than in the non-ASCT group (median EFS, 8.1 years vs. 2.8 years, P = 0.002; median OS, 14.9 years vs. 10.2 years, P = 0.007). The 5-year EFS and OS rates were 68.4% and 77.0% in ASCT group, and 43.2% and 57.6% in non-ASCT group, respectively. The survival benefit was confirmed in the propensity score matched cohort (46 patients who received ASCT and 84 patients who did not receive ASCT): P = 0.007 for median EFS and P = 0.022 for the median OS. Cox regression analysis showed that ASCT was independently associated with better survival: hazard ratio (HR) for EFS, 0.46 (95% CI: 0.28-0.76); HR for OS, 0.50 (95% CI: 0.31-0.84). Subgroup analysis showed that ASCT was more likely to benefit higher-risk patients and those with advanced disease. Among the subtypes of PTCL, the benefit was significant in angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (HR = 0.26 [95% CI: 0.10-0.66] for EFS and 0.29 [95% CI: 0.12-0.74] for OS), but not in the other subtypes. CONCLUSION ASCT may improve the long-term survival of patients with PTCL in first CR or PR, especially for patients with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma. The specific groups most likely to benefit from upfront ASCT need to be clearly identified.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study aimed to describe the impact of allogeneic/haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation on nutritional status and intake in a group of children aged 2 to 18 years. METHODS In an observational study, data were collected prospectively. Patients were prescribed individual nutritional support by hospital routines. Anthropometrics were measured pre-transplant at hospital admission and weekly from the day of transplant (day 0) until day +28. z scores for weight, height, and BMI were calculated using Norwegian growth references to assess nutritional status. Pre-transplant diet was assessed on the day of hospitalization. Nutrient provision from enteral nutrition (EN = oral and tube) and parenteral nutrition (PN) was assessed by daily records from day +1 until day +28, or previous discharge, and compared with recommendations (RI) from the Nordic Nutrition Recommendations and ESPGHAN guidelines. Total energy intake was presented as the percentage (%) of basal metabolic rate (BMR) calculated by the Schofield equation. Macro- and micronutrient provisions were presented as medians (interquartile range) and the % of RI. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients, mean age 10.3 years (range 3.5-16.6), were included. Two-thirds (n = 18) had malignant diseases. At admission, mean weight Z-score was -0.3, height z scores -0.7, and BMI Z-score 0.1. Eighteen percent (n = 5) were stunted and 25% (n = 7) had overweight. At admission, 25% (n = 7) had established tube feeding, and 7% (n = 2) also had PN. No significant changes in weight z scores were detected during the studied weeks ( P = 0.454). The median daily energy provision was 115% (110-123) of BMR and proteins 1.5 (1.3-1.8) g/kg. EN was provided during a median of 93% of the studied days and provided 21% of the energy. PN was given on a median of 96% of the studied days and provided 79% of energy. RI for vitamins, magnesium, and zinc was met. Provision of copper, iodine, selenium, calcium, and phosphate was below RI. CONCLUSIONS Combined EN and PN providing 115% of BMR and 1.5 g/kg protein ensured stable weight by day +28 and covered RI, except for trace elements and minerals.

Abstract
Myelofibrosis (MF) is a clonal myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by inflammation, marrow fibrosis, and an inherent risk of blastic transformation. Hematopoietic allogeneic stem cell transplant is the only potentially curative therapy for this disease, however, survival gains observed for other transplant indications over the past two decades have not been realized for MF. The role of transplantation may also evolve with the use of novel targeted agents. The chronic inflammatory state associated with MF necessitates pretransplantation assessment of end-organ function. Applying the transplant methodology employed for other myeloid disorders to patients with MF fails to acknowledge differences in the underlying disease pathophysiology. Limited understanding of the causes of poor transplant outcomes in this cohort has prevented refinement of transplant eligibility criteria in MF. There is increasing evidence of heterogeneity in molecular disease grade, beyond the clinical manifestations which have traditionally guided transplant timing. Exploring the physiological consequences of disease chronicity unique to MF, acknowledging the heterogeneity in disease grade, and using advanced prognostic models, molecular diagnostics and other organ function diagnostic tools, we present an innovative review of strategies with the potential to improve transplant outcomes in this disease. Larger, prospective studies which consider the impact of molecular-based disease grade are needed for MF transplantation.

Transplant Cell Ther 2022; 28:727-736. [PMID: 35878743 PMCID: PMC10487280 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2022.07.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2022] [Revised: 06/30/2022] [Accepted: 07/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Cellular therapy modalities, including autologous (auto-) hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), allogeneic (allo-) HCT, and now chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy, have demonstrated long-term remission in advanced hematologic malignancies. Auto-HCT and allo-HCT, through hematopoietic rescue, have permitted the use of higher doses of chemotherapy. Allo-HCT also introduced a nonspecific immune-mediated targeting of malignancy resulting in protection from relapse, although at the expense of similar targeting of normal host cells. In contrast, CAR T therapy, through genetically engineered immunotherapeutic precision, allows for redirection of autologous immune effector cells against malignancy in an antigen-specific and MHC-independent fashion, with demonstrated efficacy in patients who are refractory to cytotoxic chemotherapy. It too has unique toxicities and challenges, however. Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (including large B cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma), B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and multiple myeloma are the 3 main diseases associated with the use of fully developed CAR T products with widespread deployment. Recent and ongoing clinical trials have been examining the interface among the 3 cellular therapy modalities (auto-HCT, allo-HCT, and CAR T) to determine whether they should be "complementary" or "competitive" therapies. In this review, we examine the current state of this interface with respect to the most recent data and delve into the controversies and conclusions that may inform clinical decision making.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the gold standard curative therapy for infants and children with many inborn errors of immunity (IEI), but adolescents and adults with IEI are rarely referred for transplant. Lack of published HSCT outcome data outside small, single-center studies and perceived high risk of transplant-related mortality have delayed the adoption of HSCT for IEI patients presenting or developing significant organ damage later in life. This large retrospective, multicenter HSCT outcome study reports on 329 IEI patients (age range, 15-62.5 years at HSCT). Patients underwent first HSCT between 2000 and 2019. Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS). We also evaluated the influence of IEI-subgroup and IEI-specific risk factors at HSCT, including infections, bronchiectasis, colitis, malignancy, inflammatory lung disease, splenectomy, hepatic dysfunction, and systemic immunosuppression. At a median follow-up of 44.3 months, the estimated OS at 1 and 5 years post-HSCT for all patients was 78% and 71%, and EFS was 65% and 62%, respectively, with low rates of severe acute (8%) or extensive chronic (7%) graft-versus-host disease. On univariate analysis, OS and EFS were inferior in patients with primary antibody deficiency, bronchiectasis, prior splenectomy, hepatic comorbidity, and higher hematopoietic cell transplant comorbidity index scores. On multivariable analysis, EFS was inferior in those with a higher number of IEI-associated complications. Neither age nor donor had a significant effect on OS or EFS. We have identified age-independent risk factors for adverse outcome, providing much needed evidence to identify which patients are most likely to benefit from HSCT.

Abstract
Background Severe graft versus host disease (GVHD) is the main reason for non-relapse mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We investigated the serum protein profiles of patients who had undergone HCT to identify predictive biomarkers of severe acute GVHD (aGVHD). Methods Serum samples were collected for 30 patients from day − 7 to day + 14 of HCT. The serum levels of plasma beta2-microglobulin (β2-MG), soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (sVCAM-1), platelet factor 4, and TNFSF-14 were measured by ELISA as potential biomarkers following 310 cytokine profiling array. Results The median age of the study patients was 53.5 years (range, 19–69). All grade and grade 2–4 aGVHD developed in 21 (70.0%) and 17 (56.7%) patients, respectively. Compared with their baseline levels on day − 7, β2-MG and sVCAM-1 were significantly increased on day + 14 of the HCT procedure (P = 0.028 and P < 0.001, respectively). Patients with a grade 2–4 severe aGVHD showed a significantly higher sVCAM-1 level at baseline (day-7) and at day + 14, compared with the other group with a grade 1 aGVHD or no aGVHD (P = 0.028 and P = 0.035, respectively). Conclusion Higher sVCAM- levels at baseline and on day + 14 in HCT patients could be a significant predictive biomarker of severe aGVHD.

Abstract
Objective: Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCLs) are an uncommon and quite heterogeneous group of disorders, representing only 10%-15% of all non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Although both molecular and clinical studies have increased in recent years, we still have little knowledge regarding real-life practice with PTCLs. In this study, we aimed to investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of a large population-based cohort of patients presenting with systemic non-cutaneous PTCL. Materials and Methods: We conducted a multicenter retrospective analysis of 190 patients consecutively diagnosed and treated with non-cutaneous PTCLs between 2008 and 2016. Results: Considering all first-line treatment combinations, the overall response rate was 65.9% with 49.4% complete remission (n=81) and 16.5% partial response (n=27). The 5-year overall survival and event-free survival rates were significantly different between the transplant and non-transplant groups (p<0.01, and p=0.033, respectively). Conclusion: The retrospective analysis of a large volume of real-life data on the Turkish experience regarding non-cutaneous PTCL patients showed consistent results compared to other unselected PTCL cohorts with some minor differences in terms of survival and transplantation outcomes. The long-term outcome of patients who receive autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation as part of upfront consolidation or salvage therapy is favorable compared to patients who are unable to receive high-dose therapy.

Abstract
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has been successfully used to treat many malignant and nonmalignant conditions. As supportive care, donor selection, and treatment modalities evolve, documenting HCT trends and outcomes is critical. This report from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) provides an update on current transplantation activity and survival rates in the United States. Additional data on the use and outcomes of HCT in the adolescent and young adult (AYA) population are included. AYA patients more frequently receive peripheral blood stem cell grafts than pediatric patients, which may reflect differences in practice in pediatric versus adult treatment centers. The proportions of donor types also differ those in adult and pediatric populations. Outcomes for patients in the AYA age range are similar to those of pediatric patients for acute myelogenous leukemia but worse for acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Outcomes for both leukemias are better in AYA patients compared with older adults. Comparing the time periods 2000 to 2009 and 2010 to 2019 revealed significant improvement in overall survival across the age spectrum, but the greatest improvement in the AYA age group.

EBV-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified: 2022 update on diagnosis, risk-stratification, and management. Am J Hematol 2022; 97:951-965. [PMID: 35472248 DOI: 10.1002/ajh.26579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/02/2022] [Revised: 04/12/2022] [Accepted: 04/16/2022] [Indexed: 01/04/2023]
Abstract
DISEASE OVERVIEW Epstein Barr virus-positive (EBV+) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), not otherwise specified (NOS) is an entity included in the WHO classification of lymphoid neoplasms since 2016. EBV+ DLBCL, NOS, is an aggressive B-cell lymphoma associated with EBV infection, and a poor prognosis with standard chemotherapeutic approaches. DIAGNOSIS The diagnosis is made through a careful pathological evaluation. Detection of EBV-encoded RNA (EBER) is considered standard for diagnosis; however, a clear cutoff for percentage of positive cells has not been defined. The differential diagnosis includes plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL), DLBCL associated with chronic inflammation, primary effusion lymphoma (PEL), among others. RISK-STRATIFICATION The International Prognostic Index (IPI) and the Oyama score can be used for risk-stratification. The Oyama score includes age >70 years and presence of B symptoms. The expression of CD30 and PD-1/PD-L1 are emerging as potential adverse but targetable biomarkers. MANAGEMENT Patients with EBV+ DLBCL, NOS, should be staged and managed following similar guidelines than patients with EBV-negative DLBCL. EBV+ DLBCL, NOS, however, might have a worse prognosis than EBV-negative DLBCL in the era of chemoimmunotherapy. Therefore, the inclusion of patients in clinical trials when available is recommended. There is an opportunity to study and develop targeted therapy in the management of patients with EBV+ DLBCL, NOS.

Non-Classical HLA Determinants of the Clinical Response after Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Systemic Sclerosis. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23137223. [PMID: 35806227 PMCID: PMC9266677 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23137223] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2022] [Revised: 06/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/10/2022] Open
Abstract
Systemic Sclerosis (SSc) is a chronic autoimmune disease with high morbidity and mortality. Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (AHSCT) is the best therapeutic option for rapidly progressive SSc, allowing increased survival with regression of skin and lung fibrosis. The immune determinants of the clinical response after AHSCT have yet to be well characterized. In particular, the pivotal role of the Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) system is not well understood, including the role of non-classical immuno-modulatory HLA-E and HLA-G molecules in developing tolerance and the role of Natural Killer cells (NK) in the immunomodulation processes. We retrospectively tested whether the genetic and/or circulating expression of the non-classical HLA-E and HLA-G loci, as well as the imputed classical HLA determinants of HLA-E expression, influence the observed clinical response to AHSCT at 12- and 24-month follow-up. In a phenotypically well-defined sample of 46 SSc patients classified as clinical responders or non-responders, we performed HLA genotyping using next-generation sequencing and circulating levels of HLA-G and quantified HLA-E soluble isoforms by ELISA. The -21HLA-B leader peptide dimorphism and the differential expression level of HLA-A and HLA-C alleles were imputed. We observed a strong trend towards better clinical response in HLA-E*01:03 or HLA-G 14bp Del allele carriers, which are known to be associated with high expression of the corresponding molecules. At 12-month post-AHSCT follow-up, higher circulating levels of soluble HLA-E were associated with higher values of modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS) (p = 0.0275), a proxy of disease severity. In the non-responder group, the majority of patients carried a double dose of the HLA-B Threonine leader peptide, suggesting a non-efficient inhibitory effect of the HLA-E molecules. We did not find any correlation between the soluble HLA-G levels and the observed clinical response after AHSCT. High imputed expression levels of HLA-C alleles, reflecting more efficient NK cell inhibition, correlated with low values of the mRSS 3 months after AHSCT (p = 0.0087). This first pilot analysis of HLA-E and HLA-G immuno-modulatory molecules suggests that efficient inhibition of NK cells contributes to clinical response after AHSCT for SSc. Further studies are warranted in larger patient cohorts to confirm our results.

Abstract
Many congenital or acquired nonmalignant diseases (NMDs) of the hematopoietic system can be potentially cured by allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with varying types of donor grafts, degrees of HLA matching, and intensity of conditioning regimens. Unique features that distinguish the use of allogeneic HCT in this population include higher rates of graft failure, immune-mediated cytopenias, and the potential to achieve long-term disease-free survival in a mixed chimerism state. Additionally, in contrast to patients with hematologic malignancies, a priority is to completely avoid graft-versus-host disease in patients with NMD because there is no theoretical beneficial graft-versus-leukemia effect that can accompany graft-versus-host responses. In this review, we discuss the current approach to each of these clinical issues and how emerging novel therapeutics hold promise to advance transplant care for patients with NMDs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate extent of interstitial lung disease (ILD) and oesophageal involvement using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) in early diffuse SSc patients after autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT). METHODS Overall chest HRCT, lung function and skin score changes were evaluated in 33 consecutive diffuse SSc patients before and after aHSCT during yearly routine follow-up visits between January 2000 and September 2016. Two independent radiologists blindly assessed the ILD extent using semi-quantitative Goh and Wells method, the widest oesophageal diameter (WOD) and the oesophageal volume (OV) on HRCT. Patients were retrospectively classified as radiological responders or non-responders, based on achieved stability or a decrease of 5% or more of HRCT-ILD at 24 months post-aHSCT. RESULTS Using a linear mixed model, the regressions of the extent of ILD and of ground glass opacities were significant at 12 months (ILD P = 0.001; ground glass opacities P = 0.0001) and at 24 months (ILD P = 0.007; ground glass opacities P = 0.0008) after aHSCT, with 18 patients classified as radiological responders (probability of response 0.78 [95% CI 0.58, 0.90]). Meanwhile the WOD and the OV increased significantly at 12 months (WOD P = 0.03; OV P = 0.34) and at 24 months (WOD P = 0.002; OV P = 0.007). Kaplan-Meier analyses showed a trend towards better 5-year survival rates (100% vs 60%; hazard ratio 0.23 [95% CI 0.03, 1.62], P = 0.11) among radiological responders vs non-responders at 24 month follow-up after aHSCT. CONCLUSION Real-world data analysis confirmed significant improvement in extent of HRCT SSc-ILD 24 months after aHSCT, although oesophageal dilatation worsened requiring specific attention.

Abstract
Purpose To describe a case of severe, bilateral periorbital edema after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Observations A three-year old girl with metastatic neuroblastoma underwent the second of two tandem autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplants, complicated by engraftment syndrome. On post-engraftment day 11, she developed acute onset of severe periorbital edema. She was soon thereafter diagnosed with transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy with significant volume overload requiring treatment with eculizumab and etanercept. Periorbital edema resolved after four days with concurrent treatment of her underlying condition. Conclusions and Importance We report an ocular manifestation related to complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This highlights a non-infectious etiology of eyelid swelling in the post-transplant, immunocompromised population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infantile-onset inflammatory bowel disease can be caused by defects in interleukin-10 signalling. The natural history and clinical outcomes of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation, medical treatment and surgery have not been thoroughly described. AIMS This study evaluates disease progression and clinical outcome in patients with interleukin-10 signalling deficiency. METHODS One hundred and nine patients with interleukin-10 signalling deficiency were retrospectively reviewed from a single tertiary centre. The Kaplan-Meier method was applied to calculate probabilities of survival and interval between transplant and stoma closure. RESULTS One hundred and nine patients were reviewed, and 102 patients were included in the survival analysis. One hundred and eight patients were identified with IL10RA mutations, and one patient harboured IL10RB mutation. Seventy-three patients received haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The overall survival after transplantation was 64.2% (95% confidence interval, 52.8 to 75.6), and without transplantation, it was 47.5% (95% confidence interval, 14.8 to 80.2, P = 0.47). The median timeframe between transplant and stoma closure was 19.6 months. The probability of survival was significantly lower in patients with perforation (P < 0.001), ileus (P = 0.038) and without thalidomide treatment (P < 0.001) among patients who did not receive haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The survival probability was not associated with timeframe between transplant and onset, graft source and genotypes. CONCLUSIONS The survival probability was not significantly different between patients with transplantation and the non-transplanted patients.

Abstract
Primary cutaneous γδ T-cell lymphoma (PCGDTL) is a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) that arises from T-cells with γδ T-cell receptors. The exact incidence of PCGDTL is unknown, as it is usually lumped with other cutaneous lymphomas, which are also uncommon. It is one of the peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) subtypes which is known to have a dismal prognosis due to poor response and the paucity of available therapies. Despite the rarity and uncertainties of PCGDTL, a number of studies over the past decade were published about the pathologic, diagnostic, cytogenetic and clinical features of this disease. These diagnostic advances will open the doors to explore new therapeutics for this rare entity, specifically targeted and immune therapies. In this review, we highlight these advances, summarize the contemporary treatment approaches, and shed the light on future potential therapeutic targets.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The use of PTCY for graft-versus-host disease (GHVD) prevention is becoming prevalent in the transplant community when HLA-identical sibling (MSD) and 10/10 HLA-matched (MUD) and 9/10 mismatched (MMUD) unrelated donors are selected for alloHSCT. However, reported evidence on outcomes from elderly receiving PTCY-containing GVHD prophylaxis remains limited. OBJECTIVES This study aims to compare the outcomes of PTCY-TK prophylaxis and conventional GVHD prophylaxis in patients aged >50 years undergoing peripheral blood alloHSCT from a single institution. STUDY DESIGN A total of 161 consecutive patients aged >50 years undergoing alloHSCT between Jan-2014 and Feb-2021 were included. Data was collected retrospectively and updated in December 2021. Patients received grafts from HLA-identical sibling (MSD), and from 10/10 and 9/10 HLA matched and mismatched unrelated donors (UD). RESULTS Overall, median age was 60 years and 91 (54.8%) received PTCY-TK for GVHD prevention. Time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment was longer in the PTCY-TK group (20 vs. 16 days and 19 vs. 11 days, P< 0.001). The cumulative incidences of grade II-IV and III-IV aGVHD at day +100 and moderate/severe cGVHD at 2 years were 18.2%, 5.7% and 9.5% for patients receiving PTCY-TK, and 26.0%, 9.6% and 39.5% for those that did not. The multivariate analysis showed that PTCY-TK reduced the probability of grade II-IV aGVHD (HR 0.41, p=0.035), of cGVHD [any grade: HR 0.43 (p=0.014), and of moderate/severe cGVHD (HR 0.15 (p<0.001)]. At 2-years, the overall survival (65.4% vs. 65.6%, p=0.472), non-relapse mortality (17.4% vs. 13.7%, p=0.967), and cumulative incidence of relapse rates (24.2% vs. 27.5%, p=0.712) were comparable between both cohorts; GVHD-Free/Relapse-free survival (GRFS) was higher in the PTCY-TK group (2-years: 50.2% vs. 21.8%; HR 0.42, p=0.001). In patients aged ≥50 years, Conclusion: PTCY-TK was safe and a more effective drug combination than non-PTCY containing GVHD prophylaxis, even with the use of matched and mismatched UD, and resulted in comparable relapse rates and better GRFS.

Abstract
Data for outcomes after autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (auto-HCT) in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients ≥70 years are limited. Auto-HCT is feasible in older DLBCL patients. Using the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research database, we compared outcomes of auto-HCT in DLBCL patients aged 60 to 69 years (n = 363) versus ≥70 years (n = 103) between 2008 and 2019. Non-relapse mortality (NRM), relapse/progression (REL), progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) were modeled using Cox proportional hazards models. All patients received BEAM conditioning (carmustine, etoposide, cytosine arabinoside and melphalan). On univariate analysis, in the 60 to 69 years versus ≥70 years cohorts, 100-day NRM was 3% versus 4%, 5-year REL was 47% versus 45%, 5-year PFS 40% versus 38% and 5-year OS 55% versus 41%, respectively. On multivariate analysis, patients ≥70 had no significant difference in NRM (hazard ratio [HR] 1.43, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.85-2.39), REL (HR 1.11, 95% CI 0.79-1.56), PFS (HR 1.23, 95% CI 0.92-1.63) compared to patients 60 to 69 years. Patients ≥70 years had a higher mortality (HR 1.39, 95% CI 1.05-1.85, p=0.02), likely because of inferior post-relapse OS in this cohort (HR 1.82, 95% CI 1.27-2.61, P = .001). DLBCL was the major cause of death in both cohorts (62% versus 59%). Older patients should not be denied auto-HCT solely on the basis of chronological age.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nutritional support posthematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with total parenteral nutrition (TPN) or nasogastric tube feeding (NGT) in pediatric patients is associated with benefits and risks. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the indication of TPN use in our pediatric HSCT patients and its impact on survival and possible related complications. RESULTS A total of 228 HSCTs were performed during the study period. TPN was used in 144 patients (63.2%) for a median of 14 days, while 8.8% had NGT feeding and 28% were able to tolerate oral feeding. Severe mucositis was seen in 104 TPN patients (72.2%) in comparison with 22 patients (26.2%) who were on Enteral Nutrition (EN) (p = <.001). Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) was seen in 19 (13.2%) patients who had TPN compared to none in the patients who received EN (p = .001). The majority of patients who had SOS received myeloablative conditioning (MAC) therapy for hemoglobinopathy. Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was seen in 24.8% of TPN patients and 9.1% of non-TPN patients (p = .01). However, there were no statistically significant differences in chronic GVHD, bacteremia, and patients' survival between both groups. CONCLUSIONS TPN is commonly used after pediatric HSCT in cases of severe mucositis. NGT feeding was found to be the least used nutritional support method. SOS and aGVHD were associated more frequently in TPN patients compared to EN patients. This suggests the possible disadvantages of TPN and importance of SOS preventative measures in high-risk patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Cerebral X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (cALD) is an inflammatory demyelination of the brain that can lead to death unless treated by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Survival and improved outcomes for cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy are associated with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at earliest evidence of disease on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Our goal was to determine average duration between diagnosis of cALD and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS This was a retrospective review of data of patients aged 18 years or younger, using a nationwide administrative health care database (Pediatric Health Information System), with an International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) diagnosis of adrenoleukodystrophy. Time range was October 1, 2015, through June 30, 2021. We determined time to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation by duration between index brain MRI and a code for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. RESULTS We identified 27 patients with cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy. Total charges for the cohort was $53 million. Time to transplant averaged 97 days. For Hispanic patients, time to transplant was 117 days, compared with 80 days for White, non-Hispanic patients. Comparison of different hospitals showed significant variability in time to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. DISCUSSION We found that time to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was >3 months for patients with cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy in the hospitals we evaluated. We noted differences in average time by race/ethnicity and by hospital. Our findings suggest opportunity to reduce time to transplant in cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy.

Abstract
Stem cells can be defined as the cells that have the capacity to both self-renew and give rise to differentiated cells. Under the right conditions and signals, depending on their origin and bio-plasticity, stem cells can differentiate into multiple cell lineages and develop into various mature cells. Stem cell therapy is a fast-developing branch of medicine that includes the most innovative regenerative therapies for the restoration of cell and tissue function in individuals with severe diseases. Stem cell research has resulted in the emergence of cell-based therapies for disorders that are resistant to conventional drugs and therapies, and they are considered under the category of an Advanced Therapeutic Medicinal Product (ATMP). The FDA and the European Medicines Agency (EMA) devised a new strategy in 2017 with the aim of unifying the standards for development of ATMPs such that it is easy to exchange information at the international level. In this review, we discuss the evolution of mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy as an ATMP in the global and Indian scenarios, along with the guidelines governing their usage and clinical application of these therapeutics.

Abstract
The relative efficacy of autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (auto-HCT) vs chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who achieve a partial remission (PR) after salvage chemotherapy is not known. Using the Center for International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research registry database, we identified adult patients with DLBCL who received either an auto-HCT (2013-2019) or CAR-T treatment with axicabtagene ciloleucel (2018-2019) while in a PR by computed tomography or positron emission tomography scan. We compared the clinical outcomes between the 2 cohorts using univariable and multivariable regression models after adjustment for relevant baseline and clinical factors. In the univariable analysis, the 2-year progression-free survival (52% vs 42%; P = .1) and the rate of 100-day nonrelapse mortality (4% vs 2%; P = .3) were not different between the 2 cohorts, but consolidation with auto-HCT was associated with a lower rate of relapse/progression (40% vs 53%; P = .05) and a superior overall survival (OS) (69% vs 47%; P = .004) at 2 years. In the multivariable regression analysis, treatment with auto-HCT was associated with a significantly lower risk of relapse/progression rate (hazard ratio = 1.49; P = .01) and a superior OS (hazard ratio = 1.63; P = .008). In patients with DLBCL in a PR after salvage therapy, treatment with auto-HCT was associated with a lower incidence of relapse and a superior OS compared with CAR-T. These data support the role of auto-HCT as the standard of care in transplant-eligible patients with relapsed DLBCL in PR after salvage therapy.

Rates and Predictors of Nonadherence to the Post-Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Medical Regimen in Patients and Caregivers. Transplant Cell Ther 2022; 28:165.e1-165.e9. [PMID: 34875403 PMCID: PMC9004486 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2021.11.020] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2021] [Revised: 11/18/2021] [Accepted: 11/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) requires a complex, multicomponent medical regimen after hospital discharge. Patients must manage multiple medications; care for their catheter; minimize exposure to sources of potential infection; follow diet, exercise, and self-care guidelines; and attend frequent follow-up medical appointments. Their caregivers are tasked with helping them manage the regimen. Despite the importance of this management in preventing adverse clinical outcomes, there has been little study of regimen nonadherence and its predictors. We sought to prospectively determine rates and predictors of nonadherence to components of the post-HCT medical regimen during the first 8 weeks after hospital discharge. Patients (n = 92) and their caregivers (n = 91) (total n = 183) completed interview assessments pre-HCT, and at 4 weeks and 8 weeks after hospital discharge post-HCT. Sociodemographic factors (eg, age, sex), patient clinical status (eg, disease type, donor type), patient and caregiver self-reported health-related factors (eg, medical comorbidities), and patient and caregiver psychosocial factors (eg, anxiety, depression, HCT task-specific and general self-efficacy, relationship quality) were assessed pre-HCT. Nonadherence to each of 17 regimen tasks was assessed at 4 and 8 weeks after hospital discharge via self and caregiver collateral reports. Nonadherence rates varied among tasks, with 11.2% to 15.7% of the sample reporting nonadherence to immunosuppressant medication, 34.8% to 38.6% to other types of medications, 14.6% to 67.4% to required infection precautions, and 27.0% to 68.5% to lifestyle-related behaviors (eg, diet/exercise). Nonadherence rates were generally stable but worsened over time for lifestyle-related behaviors. The most consistent nonadherence predictors were patient and caregiver pre-HCT perceptions of lower HCT task efficacy. Higher caregiver depression, caregiver perceptions of poorer relationship with the patient, having a nonspousal caregiver, and having diseases other than acute myelogenous leukemia also predicted greater nonadherence in 1 or more areas. Rates of nonadherence varied across tasks, and both patient and caregiver factors, particularly self-efficacy, predicted nonadherence. The findings highlight the importance of considering not only patient factors, but also caregiver factors, in post-HCT regimen nonadherence.

Abstract
This work aims to review the role of endothelial dysfunction underlying the main complications appearing early after autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). The endothelial damage as the pathophysiological substrate of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) is well established. However, there is growing evidence of the involvement of endothelial dysfunction in other complications, such as acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMAs). Moreover, HCT-related endotheliopathy is not only limited to the HCT setting, as there is increasing evidence of its implication in complications derived from other cellular therapies. We also review the incidence and the risk factors of the main HCT complications and the biological evidence of the endothelial involvement and other linked pathways in their development. In addition, we cover the state of the art regarding the potential use of the biomarkers of endotheliopathy in the prediction, the early diagnosis, and the follow-up of the HCT complications and summarize current knowledge points to the endothelium and the other linked pathways described as potential targets for the prevention and treatment of HCT-complications. Lastly, the endothelium-focused therapeutic strategies that are emerging and might have a potential impact on the survival and quality of life of post-HCT-patients are additionally reviewed.

Abstract
Pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia generally carries a good prognosis, and most children will be cured and become long-term survivors. However, a portion of children will harbor high-risk features at the time of diagnosis, have a poor response to upfront therapy, or suffer relapse necessitating more intensive therapy, which may include allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). Recent advances in risk stratification, improved detection and incorporation of minimal residual disease (MRD), and intensification of upfront treatment have changed the indications for HSCT over time. For children in first complete remission, HSCT is generally reserved for those with the highest risk of relapse. These include patients with unfavorable features/cytogenetics who also have a poor response to induction and consolidation chemotherapy, usually reflected by residual blasts after prednisone or by detectable MRD at pre-defined time points. In the relapsed setting, children with first relapse of B-cell ALL are further stratified for HSCT depending on the time and site of relapse, while all patients with T-cell ALL are generally consolidated with HSCT. Alternatives to HSCT have also emerged over the last decade including immunotherapy and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy. These novel agents may spare toxicity while attempting to achieve MRD-negative remission in the most refractory cases and serve as a bridge to HSCT. In some situations, these emerging therapies can indeed be curative for some children with relapsed or resistant disease, thus, obviating the need for HSCT. In this review, we seek to summarize the role of HSCT in the current era of immunotherapy.

Outcome of Allogeneic Transplantation for Mature T-cell Lymphomas: Impact of Donor Source and Disease Characteristics. Blood Adv 2021; 6:920-930. [PMID: 34861680 PMCID: PMC8945300 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2021005899] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2021] [Accepted: 10/07/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
OS (3-year) of patients with TCL getting haplo-HCT or MSD, MUD TCD+, or MUD TCD− allo-HCT was 60%, 63%, 59%, and 64%, respectively. PFS (3-year) of patients with TCL getting haplo-HCT or MSD, MUD TCD+, or MUD TCD− allo-HCT is 50%, 50%, 48%, and 52%, respectively.
Mature T-cell lymphomas constitute the most common indication for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) of all lymphomas. Large studies evaluating contemporary outcomes of allo-HCT in mature T-cell lymphomas relative to commonly used donor sources are not available. Included in this registry study were adult patients who had undergone allo-HCT for anaplastic large cell lymphoma, angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL), or peripheral T-cell lymphoma not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS) between 2008 and 2018. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) platforms compared were posttransplant cyclophosphamide-based haploidentical (haplo-)HCT, matched sibling donor (MSD) HCT, matched unrelated donor HCT with in vivo T-cell depletion (MUD TCD+), and matched unrelated donor HCT without in vivo T-cell depletion (MUD TCD−). Coprimary end points were overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS); secondary end points included nonrelapse mortality (NRM), and relapse/progression incidence (RI). A total of 1942 patients were eligible (237 haplo-HCT; 911 MSD; 468 MUD TCD+; 326 MUD TCD−). Cohorts were comparable for baseline characteristics with the exception of higher proportions of patients with decreased performance status (PS) and marrow graft recipients in the haplo-HCT group. Using univariate and multivariate comparisons, OS, PFS, RI, and NRM were not significantly different among the haplo-HCT, MSD, MUD TCD+, and MUD TCD− cohorts, with 3-year OS and PFS of 60%, 63%, 59%, and 64%, respectively, and 50%, 50%, 48%, and 52%, respectively. Significant predictors of inferior OS and PFS on multivariate analysis were active disease status at HCT and decreased PS. AITL was associated with significantly reduced relapse risk and better PFS compared with PTCL-NOS. Allo-HCT can provide durable PFS in patients with mature T-cell lymphoma (TCL). Outcomes of haplo-HCT were comparable to those of matched donor allo-HCT.

Ice-cream used as cryotherapy during high-dose melphalan conditioning reduces oral mucositis after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Sci Rep 2021; 11:22507.

Abstract
Oral mucositis (OM) is one of the most frequent adverse events of high-dose conditioning chemotherapy with melphalan prior to autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT). It significantly reduces the patients’ quality of life. One of the preventive strategies for OM is cryotherapy. We retrospectively analyzed whether commercially available ice-cream could prevent OM during the melphalan infusion. We retrospectively analyzed 74 patients after AHSCT to see whether there is any correlation between OM and cryotherapy (ice-cream), melphalan dose (140 mg/m2 or 200 mg/m2). The incidence of OM in our study inversely correlated with cryotherapy in the form of ice-cream. Out of 74 patients receiving conditioning chemotherapy with high-dose melphalan, 52 received cryotherapy. Fifteen patients in the cryotherapy group (28.84%) developed OM, whereas 13 patients (59.09%) developed it in the group without cryotherapy. In a multiple linear regression test cryotherapy remained a significant protective factor against OM (p = 0.02) We have also seen the relationship between melphalan dose with OM (p < 0.005). Cryotherapy in the form of ice-cream is associated with a lower rate of OM and, therefore, could potentially be used as a cost-effective, less burdensome, and easy to implement method in prevention of oral mucositis.

Abstract
We analysed long-term outcome of patients receiving haematopoietic allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) as a first transplant for high-risk Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). One hundred and ninety patients were included in this study, 63% of them had previously received brentuximab vedotin and/or checkpoint inhibitors. Seventy patients (37%) received an unrelated donor allo-HSCT, 99 (51%) had myeloablative conditioning (MAC) and 60% had in vivo T-cell/depleted grafts (TCD). The 100-day cumulative incidence (CI) of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 25% and the 3-year CI of chronic GVHD was 38%. The 3-year CI of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse rate were 21% and 38% respectively. After a median follow-up of 58 months, 3-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 58% and 41% respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that, in comparison to reduced-intensity conditioning regimens with or without TCD, MAC using TCD had similar NRM and a lower risk of relapse leading to significantly better OS and PFS. MAC without TCD was associated with higher NRM and worse survival outcomes. These results suggest that in patients with high-risk HL and candidates of allo-HSCT, a MAC strategy with TCD might be the best option.

Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate pathological changes in blood vessels and meibomian glands (MGs) in the eyelids of sclerodermatous chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) model mice. METHODS We used an established major histocompatibility complex compatible, multiple minor histocompatibility antigen-mismatched sclerodermatous cGVHD mouse model. Blood vessels and MGs of eyelids from allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT) recipient mice and syngeneic bone marrow transplantation (syn-BMT) recipient mice were assessed by histopathology, immunohistochemistry and transmission electron microscopy. Peripheral blood samples from the recipients were examined by flow cytometry. RESULTS Allo-BMT samples showed dilating, tortuous and branching vessels and shrunk MGs in the eyelids; showed significantly higher expression of VEGFR2 (p = 0.029), CD133 (p = 0.016), GFP (p = 0.006), and α-SMA (p = 0.029) in the peripheral MG area; showed endothelial damage and activation, fibrotic change, and immune cell infiltration into MGs compared with syn-BMT samples. Fewer Ki-67+ cells were observed in allo- and syn-BMT samples than in wild-type samples (p = 0.030). Ultrastructural changes including endothelial injury and activation, fibroblast activation, granulocyte degranulation, immune cell infiltration into MGs, and necrosis, apoptosis of MG basal cells were found in allo-BMT samples compared with syn-BMT samples. CONCLUSION A series of our studies indicated that cGVHD can cause eyelid vessel and MGs changes, including endothelial injury and activation, neovascularization, early fibrotic changes, immune cell infiltration, MG basal cell necrosis and apoptosis, and resultant MG atrophy.

TCRαβ/CD19 depleted HSCT from an HLA-haploidentical relative to treat children with different non-malignant disorders. Blood Adv 2021; 6:281-292. [PMID: 34592755 PMCID: PMC8753220 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2021005628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Several non-malignant disorders (NMDs), either inherited or acquired, can be cured by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Between January 2012 and April 2020, 70 consecutive children affected by primary immunodeficiencies, inherited/acquired bone marrow failure syndromes, red blood cell disorders or metabolic diseases, lacking a fully-matched donor or requiring urgent transplantation, underwent TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical HSCT from an HLA-partially matched relative as part of a prospective study (#NCT01810120). Median age at transplant was 3.5 years (range 0.3-16.1); median time from diagnosis to transplant was 10.5 months (2.7 for SCID patients). Primary engraftment was obtained in 51 patients, while 19 and 2 patients experienced either primary or secondary graft failure (GF), the overall incidence of this complication being 30.4%. Most GFs were observed in children with disease at risk for this complication (e.g., aplastic anemia, thalassemia). All but 5 patients experiencing GF were successfully retransplanted. Six patients died of infectious complications (4 had active/recent infections at time of HSCT), the cumulative incidence of transplant-related mortality (TRM) being 8.5%. Cumulative incidence of grade I-II acute GvHD was 14.4% (no patient developed grade III-IV acute GVHD). Only one patient at risk developed mild chronic GvHD. With a median follow-up of 3.5 years, the 5-year probability of overall and disease-free survival was 91.4% and 86.8%, respectively. In conclusion, TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical HSCT from an HLA-partially matched relative is confirmed to be an effective treatment for children with NMDs. Prompt donor availability, low incidence of GvHD and TRM make this strategy an attractive option in NMDs patients.

Abstract
The consensus recommendations in 2018 from The Chinese Society of Hematology (CSH) on indications, conditioning regimens and donor selection for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) facilitated the standardization of clinical practices of allo-HSCT in China and progressive integration with the world. There have been new developments since the initial publication. To integrate recent developments and further improve the consensus, a panel of experts from the CSH recently updated the consensus recommendations, which are summarized as follows: (1) there is a new algorithm for selecting appropriate donors for allo-HSCT candidates. Haploidentical donors (HIDs) are the preferred donor choice over matched sibling donors (MSDs) for patients with high-risk leukemia or elderly patients with young offspring donors in experienced centers. This replaces the previous algorithm for donor selection, which favored MSDs over HIDs. (2) Patients with refractory/relapsed lymphoblastic malignancies are now encouraged to undergo salvage treatment with novel immunotherapies prior to HSCT. (3) The consensus has been updated to reflect additional evidence for the application of allo-HSCT in specific groups of patients with hematological malignancies (intermediate-risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML), favorable-risk AML with positive minimal residual disease, and standard-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia). (4) The consensus has been updated to reflect additional evidence for the application of HSCT in patients with nonmalignant diseases, such as severe aplastic anemia and inherited diseases. (5) The consensus has been updated to reflect additional evidence for the administration of anti-thymocyte globulin, granulocyte colony-stimulating factors and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide in HID-HSCT.

Abstract
Background Racial/ethnic disparities in the utilization of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) have been reported for patients with hematologic malignancies, but population‐based data are lacking for lymphoma patients. The objective of this study was to determine whether racial and ethnic disparities exist in the utilization of autologous HCT for lymphoma in the United States. Method We used Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results data linked to Medicare fee‐for‐service claims. We included Medicare beneficiaries aged 66+ years with Hodgkin or Non‐Hodgkin lymphomas diagnosed between 2008 and 2015. The primary outcome was time‐to‐autologous HCT. We used Cox proportional hazards models to estimate racial/ethnic differences in utilization. Missing data were handled using multiple imputation with chained equations. Results We included 40,605 individuals with lymphoma. A total of 452 autologous transplants were performed. In the unadjusted model, Non‐Hispanic Black patients were 51% less likely to receive a transplant than Non‐Hispanic White patients (95% CI, 0.26–0.96; p = 0.04). After adjusting for age at diagnosis and sex, Non‐Hispanic Black patients were 61% less likely to receive a transplant (95% CI, 0.20–0.76; p = 0.01). However, observed differences attenuated and became non‐significant after adjustment for socioeconomic factors (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.62; 95% CI, 0.32–1.21; p = 0.16) and disease‐specific factors (aHR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.30–1.12; p = 0.11), separately. In the fully adjusted model, we also did not observe a statistically significant association between Non‐Hispanic Black race/ethnicity and receipt of transplant (aHR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.28–1.05; p = 0.07). Conclusion In this population‐based cohort study of lymphoma patients, Non‐Hispanic Black patients were less likely to receive autologous HCT compared to Non‐Hispanic White patients, but this difference was partially explained by socioeconomic and disease‐specific factors.

Abstract
Cellular therapies such as allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and immune-effector cell therapy (IECT) continue to have a critical role in the treatment of patients with high risk malignancies and hematologic conditions. These therapies are also associated with inflammatory conditions such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and cytokine release syndrome (CRS) which contribute significantly to the morbidity and mortality associated with these therapies. Recent advances in our understanding of the immunological mechanisms that underly GVHD and CRS highlight an important role for Janus kinases (JAK). JAK pathways are important for the signaling of several cytokines and are involved in the activation and proliferation of several immune cell subsets. In this review, we provide an overview of the preclinical and clinical evidence supporting the use of JAK inhibitors for acute and chronic GVHD and CRS.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The use of checkpoint blockade therapy (CBT) has shown impressive results for the treatment of relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). The impact of CBT depends on the reversal of an exhausted T-cell immune phenotype and a consequential increase in the immunological, anti-tumor effect derived from a patient's adaptive immunity. As most patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma will relapse during or after this treatment, clinicians often provide consolidation with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) in fit patients. However, the mechanisms responsible for CBT efficacy can also be those that increase the risk of immunological complications after alloHCT. AREAS COVERED We carried out in-depth research on the current medical literature to report and discuss the mechanism of action of CBT within a cHL setting; clinical results of CBT in cHL setting pre-alloHCT and post-alloHCT; interactions between CBT and alloHCT; and further clinical considerations. EXPERT OPINION Checkpoint blockade therapy is an effective strategy for relapsed/refractory cHL. Its use is associated with higher immunological toxicities when administered before or after alloHCT. Whenever alloHCT is planned, clinicians should follow international recommendations such as using post-transplant cyclophosphamide GVHD prophylaxis.

Assessment of cellular response to mitogens in long-term allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation survivors. Int J Hematol 2021; 114:682-690.

Abstract
Infection is one of the major causes of death in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) survivors. Precise assessments of immune function after HSCT will be critical in establishing appropriate treatment and prophylaxis, such as re-vaccination. Although several surrogate markers for prediction of clinical outcomes after HSCT have been proposed, definitive markers of immune reconstitution and data on those markers in long-term survivors are lacking. In this study, cellular response to mitogens was assessed and clinical features associated with a poor response to mitogens were investigated in long-term allogeneic HSCT survivors. Age at transplantation and age at the time of mitogen stimulation test were each identified as significant risk factors for poor response to phytohemagglutinin and concanavalin A, respectively (P < 0.001 each). However, time elapsed since transplantation was not found to be correlated with responsiveness to mitogens in this study. Prospective, in-depth studies on immune reconstitution are needed to establish appropriate prophylaxis against infections after HSCT and a schedule for re-vaccination.
