High-dose alemtuzumab and cyclosporine vs tacrolimus, methotrexate, and sirolimus for chronic graft-versus-host disease prevention. Blood Adv 2024; 8:4294-4310.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) remains a significant problem for patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Although in vivo lymphodepletion for cGVHD prophylaxis has been explored in the myeloablative setting, its effects after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) are not well described. Patients (N = 83) with hematologic malignancies underwent targeted lymphodepletion chemotherapy followed by a RIC allo-HSCT using peripheral blood stem cells from unrelated donors. Patients were randomized to 2 GVHD prophylaxis arms: alemtuzumab and cyclosporine (AC; n = 44) or tacrolimus, methotrexate, and sirolimus (TMS; n = 39), with the primary end point of cumulative incidence of severe cGVHD. The incidence of severe cGVHD was lower with AC vs TMS prophylaxis at 1- and 5-years (0% vs 10.3% and 4.5% vs 28.5%; overall, P = .0002), as well as any grade (P = .003) and moderate-severe (P < .0001) cGVHD. AC was associated with higher rates of grade 3 to 4 infections (P = .02) and relapse (52% vs 21%; P = .003) with no difference in 5-year GVHD-free-, relapse-free-, or overall survival. AC severely depleted naïve T-cell reconstitution, resulting in reduced T-cell receptor repertoire diversity, smaller populations of CD4Treg and CD8Tscm, but a higher ratio of Treg to naïve T-cells at 6 months. In summary, an alemtuzumab-based regimen successfully reduced the rate and severity of cGVHD after RIC allo-HSCT and resulted in a distinct immunomodulatory profile, which may have reduced cGVHD incidence and severity. However, increased infections and relapse resulted in a lack of survival benefit after long-term follow-up. This trial was registered at www.ClinicalTrials.gov as #NCT00520130.

Abstract
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is the most common long-term complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The patients with pulmonary cGVHD in particular have a very poor prognosis. NK cells are the first reconstituted lymphocyte subset after allo-HSCT; however, the impact of reconstituted NK cells on cGVHD is unclear. Here, we found allogeneic recipients showed obvious pulmonary cGVHD. Surprisingly, deletion of reconstituted NK cells resulted in maximal relief of pulmonary cGVHD. Mechanistically, reconstituted NK cells with donor profiles modulated the pulmonary inflammatory microenvironment to trigger cGVHD. Reconstituted NK cells secreted IFN-γ and TNF-α to induce CXCL10 production by epithelial cells, which recruited macrophages and CD4+ T cells to the lungs. Then macrophages and CD4+ T cells were activated by the inflammatory microenvironment, thereby mediating lung injury. Through assessment of differences in cellular energy, we found that CD74+ NK cells with high mitochondrial potential and pro-inflammatory activity triggered pulmonary cGVHD. Furthermore, targeted elimination of CD74+ NK cells using the anti-CD74 antibody significantly alleviated pulmonary cGVHD but preserved the CD74- NK cells to exert graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects. Data from human samples corroborated our findings in mouse models. Collectively, our results reveal that reconstituted CD74+ NK cells trigger pulmonary cGVHD and suggest that administration of CD74 antibody was a potential therapeutic for patients with cGVHD.

Identification of Fibroinflammatory and Fibrotic Transcriptomic Subsets of Human Cutaneous Sclerotic Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease. JID INNOVATIONS 2024; 4:100246.

Abstract
Cutaneous sclerotic chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a common and highly morbid complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Our goals were to identify signals active in the skin of patients with sclerotic cGVHD in an effort to better understand how to treat this manifestation and to explore the heterogeneity of the disease. We identified genes that are significantly upregulated in the skin of patients with sclerotic cGVHD (n = 17) compared with those in the skin of patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation without cutaneous cGVHD (n = 9) by bulk RNA sequencing. Sclerotic cGVHD was most associated with T helper 1, phagocytic, and fibrotic pathways. In addition, different transcriptomic groups of affected patients were discovered: those with fibrotic and inflammatory/T helper 1 gene expression (the fibroinflammatory group) and those with predominantly fibrotic/TGFβ-associated expression (the fibrotic group). Further study will help elucidate whether these gene expression findings can be used to tailor treatment decisions. Multiple proteins encoded by highly induced genes in the skin (SFRP4, SERPINE2, COMP) were also highly induced in the plasma of patients with sclerotic cGVHD (n = 16) compared with those in plasma of control patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation without sclerotic cGVHD (n = 17), suggesting these TGFβ and Wnt pathway mediators as candidate blood biomarkers of the disease.

Abstract
Graft versus host disease (GvHD) is the clinical condition in which bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been most frequently studied. In this review, we summarize the experience from clinical trials that have paved the way to translation. While MSC-based therapy has shown an exceptional safety profile, identifying potency assays and disease biomarkers that reliably predict the capacity of a specific MSC batch to alleviate GvHD has been difficult. As GvHD diagnosis and staging are based solely on clinical criteria, individual patients recruited in the same clinical trial may have vastly different underlying biology, obscuring trial outcomes and making it difficult to determine the benefit of MSCs in subgroups of patients. An accumulating body of evidence indicates the importance of considering not only the cell product but also patient-specific biomarkers and/or immune characteristics in determining MSC responsiveness. A mode of action where intravascular MSC destruction is followed by monocyte-efferocytosis-mediated skewing of the immune repertoire in a permissive inflammatory environment would both explain why cell engraftment is irrelevant for MSC efficacy and stress the importance of biologic differences between responding and nonresponding patients. We recommend a combined analysis of clinical outcomes and both biomarkers of disease activity and MSC potency assays to identify patients with GvHD who are likely to benefit from MSC therapy.

Abstract
Chronic graft-versus host disease (cGVHD) is a major risk for patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. With the emergence of novel therapies and the increased understanding of the mechanisms underlying cGVHD, there are more options for cGVHD treatment. Regardless of improvements in treatment, diagnosis mainly depends on identification of symptoms, which makes precise treatment a challenge. Numerous biomarkers for cGVHD have been validated and have demonstrated strong associations with prognosis and response to treatment. The most common biomarkers mainly include critical types of immune cells, chemokines, cytokines, microRNAs, and autoantibodies, all of which play important roles in the development of cGVHD. Compared to traditional tools, biomarkers have several advantages, for example, they can be applied for early diagnosis, to identify cGVHD risk before onset, and predict which therapy is most likely to benefit patients. In this review, we summarize biomarkers with potential clinical value and discuss future applications.

Abstract
Limited information is available regarding clinical and biological properties of fatigue in patients with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD). Patients with moderate-to-severe cGvHD per NIH criteria were enrolled on a cross-sectional study and categorized as "fatigued" if SF-36 vitality score was <40. Clinical and laboratory parameters of fatigued (n = 109) and nonfatigued patients (n = 72) were compared. In univariate analysis, walk velocity, NIH joint-fascia score, human activity profile, and SF-36 physical and mental health self-report scales were correlates of fatigue. No cGvHD biomarkers were associated with fatigue. NIH joint score, Lee sleep and depression questions, and PG-SGA activities and function score jointly predicted fatigue. Though higher rates of depression and insomnia were reported in the fatigued group, antidepressant or sleep aid use did not differ between groups. Survival ratio was not significantly different by fatigue status. Pathophysiology of fatigue in patients with cGvHD is complex and may involve mechanisms unrelated to disease activity. Patients with cGvHD experiencing fatigue had higher rates of untreated depression and insomnia, highlighting the need to focus clinical management of these conditions to improve health-related quality of life.
