Seven-years post allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation pure red cell aplastic anemia cured with daratumumab: A case report and review of literature. World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:5604-5612. [PMID: 39188601 PMCID: PMC11269989 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v12.i24.5604] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2024] [Revised: 06/04/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/11/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) is currently the only viable method of curing patients with acute myeloid leukaemia. In 30% to 50% of patients, donors and recipients have some level of ABO blood group incompatibility. ABO blood group incompatibility can cause antibodies against the donor's red blood cells to persist in the recipient's body, resulting in a delay of several months in the recovery of red blood cells. A number of different treatments have been reported for post-transplant pure red cell aplastic anaemia (PRCA), such as plasmapheresis, donor lymphocyte infusions, anti-thymocyte globulin, rituximab and steroids. CASE SUMMARY A 41-year-old female diagnosed with acute myeloid leukaemia underwent peripheral blood allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in November 2013 from an HLA matched unrelated donor. The donor was AB-positive and the recipient was O-positive. The patient was diagnosed with PRCA three months after receiving the donor stem cell transplant. After failing multiple lines of therapy, the patient applied for daratumumab. After receiving three doses of daratumumab, the patient developed a reticulocyte response and no longer required blood transfusions. CONCLUSION The use of daratumumab anti-CD38 for the remove of plasma cells is safe and effective and may be tried for refractory patients with PRCA after undergoing allo-HSCT for ABO incompatibility.

Successful treatment pure red cell aplasia after ABO major mismatched allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with avatrombopag and low dose rituximab. Transfusion 2024; 64:510-516. [PMID: 38351735 DOI: 10.1111/trf.17743] [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: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 01/15/2024] [Accepted: 01/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with ABO major incompatibility is characterized by transfusion dependent anemia. No standard treatment existed for PRCA following allo-HSCT yet. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS We conducted a retrospective study, and reported our experience with the use of avatrombopag and lower dose rituximab to treat five patients with PRCA subsequent to major ABO-incompatible allo-HSCT. RESULTS Five cases of PRCA were identified from 72 patients who underwent allo-HSCT with major or bidirectional ABO mismatch. Cumulative incidence at Day +60 was 6.9% (5/72) at our center. All donor and recipient blood groups were A+ and O+ , respectively. In the first three cases we reported, patients received erythropoietin, plasma exchange, and donor lymphocyte infusion, but none of them had any effect. After 4 weeks of treatment with low dose rituximab (100 mg/week) combined with avatrombopag (40 mg/day), favorable outcomes were obtained. According to the aforementioned experience, Cases 4 and 5 were administered low-dose rituximab and avatrombopag in 3 months after transplantation, and erythroid response was observed on 3 weeks after treatment. Our patients tolerated low-dose rituximab and avatrombopag well and experienced rapid efficacy, with a median duration of 3 weeks. Furthermore, no severe infection or thrombocytosis necessitated a dose adjustment. CONCLUSION Low-dose rituximab and avatrombopag may be an effective treatment for patients with PRCA after major ABO-incompatible allo-HSCT. The patients should be treated at least 90 days post transplantation if conventional erythropoietin therapy fails.

Parvovirus B19 infection in pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation - Single-center experience and review. Transpl Infect Dis 2023; 25:e14028. [PMID: 36748962 DOI: 10.1111/tid.14028] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/15/2022] [Revised: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 01/17/2023] [Indexed: 02/08/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Parvovirus B19 (B19V) infection following pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a rare complication and available data is scarce. Therefore, we present the experience with B19V Infection in allogeneic pediatric HCT recipients at our transplant center together with a systematic review of the literature. METHODS Pediatric HCT patients with Parvovirus B19 infection treated at the University Children's Hospital Münster between 1999 and 2021 were retrospectively identified and clinical data were analyzed. Additionally, a systematic MEDLINE search to identify relevant articles was performed. RESULTS We identified three out of 445 patients (0.6%) with B19V infection post-transplantation. B19V infection occurred in combination with other complications like Graft-versus-Host disease, additional infections, or autoimmune-mediated hemolysis potentially triggered by B19V. In one patient these complications lead to a fatal outcome. The review of the literature showed considerable morbidity of B19V infection with the potential for life-threatening complications. Most patients were treated by red blood cell transfusion and intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIG) with a high succession rate. CONCLUSION Symptomatic B19V infection following HCT remains a rare but potentially challenging complication. A causal antiviral therapy does not exist as well as general recommendations on dosage and duration of IVIG therapy. Despite this, most patients are treated successfully with these measures. Additionally, transmission via blood or stem cell products is also rare and no general recommendations on B19V screenings exist.

Abstract
Parvovirus B19 (PvB19) infection and PvB19 related pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) in recipients with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation have been reported sporadically. However, clinical studies with large sample sizes are lacking, especially in patients undergoing HLA-haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT). In addition, clinical features, immune reconstitution, and outcomes of these patients are not clear. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 164 patients who received haplo-PBSCT with low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) plus low-dose posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based regimen as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. We analyzed the incidence of PvB19 related PRCA and compared the clinical characteristics, immune reconstitution, incidence of GVHD, relapse rate, and survival between patients with and without PvB19 related PRCA. A total of 14 (8.5%) recipients developed PvB19 related PRCA after a median of 5.3 months after haplo-PBSCT. These patients with PvB19 related PRCA had slower immune reconstitution, but similar incidences of GVHD, relapse rate, and overall survival compared with recipients without PvB19 related PRCA. PvB19 related PRCA indicated relative delayed and poor immune reconstitution of the recipients early after haplo-PBSCT. PvB19 related PRCA had no effects on GVHD, relapse, and survival.

Abstract
Radix Rehmanniae (RR, from Radix Rehmanniae (Gaertn.) DC.) is a natural medicine used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) since ancient times for the treatment of blood disorders. RR is steamed to get Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata (RP), which has a tonic effect on blood; the content of 5-hydromethylfurfural (5-HMF) increases more than four times after steaming. Studies have shown that 5-HMF has positive pharmacological effects on cardiovascular and hematological disorders. This study aimed to explore and verify the impact of 5-HMF on rats with chemotherapy-induced blood deficiency syndrome (BDS). Rats were given cyclophosphamide (CP) and acetophenhydrazine (APH) to induce BDS, the coefficients of some organs (liver, spleen, and kidney) were measured, and a routine blood test examined the coefficients of several peripheral blood cells. Metabolomics and network pharmacology were combined to find important biomarkers, targets, and pathways. Western blot was used to detect the expression of CYP17A1 and HSD3B1 proteins in the spleen. All these findings suggested that the 5-HMF significantly increased the number of peripheral blood cells and reversed splenomegaly in rats. In addition, 5-HMF upregulated CYP17A1 and HSD3B1 protein expression in splenic tissues. Also, 5-HMF ameliorated chemotherapy-induced BDS in rats, and its therapeutic mechanism might depend on steroid hormone biosynthesis and other pathways. It acts on blood deficiency via multiple targets and pathways, which is unique to Chinese medicine.

Front Immunol 2022; 13:829670. [PMID: 35222414 PMCID: PMC8873189 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.829670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2021] [Accepted: 01/24/2022] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is one of the important complications in major ABO-incompatible allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The established pathogenic factor of PRCA is the persistence of high anti-donor isohemagglutinins. As previously verified, the conditioning regimen and donor type were the factors associated with the development of PRCA in the small-sized studies. Currently, the prevalence, risk factors, and prognosis of PRCA are still worth studying to provide evidence. Methods We conducted a prospective nested case-control study to determine the prevalence, donor-related factors, and the outcomes of PRCA following major ABO-incompatible transplantation. A total of 469 patients who underwent ABO-incompatible grafts were observed. Results None of the patients were diagnosed with PRCA with minor or bidirectional ABO-incompatible HSCT. Thirteen of the187 patients (7%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.9%–11.9%) developed PRCA following major ABO-incompatible HSCT. Eleven of the 13 patients with PRCA recovered entirely. Donor type was an independent factor associated with post-HSCT PRCA (odds ratio [OR]=0.030; 95% CI, 0.003–0.321; P=0.004). The cumulative incidence rates of post-HSCT PRCA in the context of major ABO-incompatible HSCT were 0.8%, 13.1%, and 27.2% for the haploidentical donor (HID), unrelated donor, and matched related donor, respectively. No significant influence of PRCA on transplantation outcomes was observed. In conclusion, post-HSCT PRCA is a rare and less threatening complication in major ABO-incompatible HSCT. The majority of patients with PRCA could recover. Additionally, HIDs for recipients may have a low risk of post-HSCT PRCA. This trial was registered at www.chictr.org.cn (#ChiCTR2000041412).

Anemia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can be immune or non–immune mediated. Auto- or alloimmunity resulting from blood group incompatibility remains an important cause in post-HSCT immune-mediated anemia. ABO incompatibility is commonly encountered in HSCT and may lead to serious clinical complications, including acute hemolysis, pure red cell aplasia, and passenger lymphocyte syndrome. It remains controversial whether ABO incompatibility may affect HSCT outcomes, such as relapse, nonrelapse mortality, graft-versus-host disease, and survival. Non-ABO incompatibility is less frequently encountered but can have similar complications to ABO incompatibility, causing adverse clinical outcomes. It is crucial to identify the driving etiology of post-HSCT anemia in order to prevent and treat this condition. This requires a comprehensive understanding of the mechanism of anemia in blood group–incompatible HSCT and the temporal association between HSCT and anemia. In this review, we summarize the literature on post-HSCT immune-mediated anemia with a focus on ABO and non-ABO blood group incompatibility, describe the underlying mechanism of anemia, and outline preventive and treatment approaches.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a well-recognized complication of ABO major mismatched allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), with a reported incidence of 10%-20% (Zhidong et al., 2012; Busca et al., 2018). It is clinically characterized by anemia, reticulocytopenia, and the absence of erythroblasts in a normal-appearing bone marrow biopsy (Shahan and Hildebrandt, 2015). The mechanism for PRCA has been presumed to be persistence of recipient isoagglutinins, produced by residual host B lymphocytes or plasma cells, which can interfere with the engraftment of donor erythroid cells (Zhidong et al., 2012). Several risk factors of PRCA at presentation are known, such as presence of anti-A isoagglutinins before transplantation, reduced intensity conditioning, absence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), sibling donors, and cyclosporin A (CsA) as GVHD prophylaxis (Hirokawa et al., 2013). PRCA is not considered to be a barrier to HSCT, as some patients can recover spontaneously or benefit from various approaches including high-dose steroids, erythropoietin (EPO), plasma exchange, immunoadsorption, donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI), treatment with rituximab, bortezomib, or daratumumab, and tapering or discontinuation of immunosuppression (Hirokawa et al., 2013; Bathini et al., 2019). However, there are still some patients who fail to respond even to aggressive treatment; they become red cell transfusion-dependent and iron-overloaded, and their life quality is impaired.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) with major ABO incompatibility is responsible for transfusion dependent anaemia, impaired quality of life and iron overload. We conducted a retrospective study, over a 10-year period, which included all consecutive patients who received a major ABO mismatched aHSCT, to assess the impact of specific treatment on PRCA. We did not observe any PRCA in the 57 aHSCT issued from cord blood. Among the remaining 631 patients, cumulative incidence of PRCA was 10·5% [range 8·2-13.0]. The median duration of resolved PRCA was 171 days [IQR 116; 261]. Pre-transplant high isohaemagglutinins titre was associated with an increased risk of PRCA (P < 10-4 ). PRCA did not affect overall survival (P = 0·95). Twenty-two patients (33·3%) received at least one specific treatment. The most commonly used treatments were rituximab (17 patients) and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI; seven patients). Regarding PRCA resolution, we did not observe a significant difference between treated or untreated subjects (HR = 0·93, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0·48- 1·80; P = 0·82). Similar results were observed with erythropoietin treatment (22 patients, HR = 0·86 95% CI: [0·47-1·57] P = 0·62). Our data do not support the use of erythropoietin, rituximab or DLI for the treatment of PRCA.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is a complication related to major or bidirectional ABO mismatched hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This disorder is characterized by anemia, reticulocytopenia, and the absence or virtual absence of erythroid progenitors, other causes such as infections, hemolysis, disease relapse, or drug toxicity having been excluded. Patients with PRCA may become RBC transfusion dependent for long periods, suffering an important long-term iron overload, alloimmunization, and transfusion reactions. The persistence of recipient isoagglutinins against donor ABO antigens produced by host residual plasmatic cells has been considered as the immunological cause of the prolonged erythroid aplasia. PRCA behaves in many cases as a self-limited condition and resolution may occur spontaneously within weeks, months, and even years. Many different therapeutic approaches have been reported for posttransplant PRCA as plasmapheresis, high doses of erythropoietin, donor lymphocyte infusions, anti-thymocyte globulin, Rituximab and steroids, among others. However, to date there is no standard of care and the question if patients with PRCA should be treated and at which point remains. The objective of this article is to review the natural evolution of PRCA, and the treatments that have been used over time focusing on their suitability and efficacy.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell patients regularly require transfusion support. Indications for transfusion in this population are similar to other patients being treated with chemoradiation; however, special considerations must be made in regards to pretransfusion testing, ABO compatibility, product modifications, and anticipated challenges while patients undergo engraftment. Additionally, infusion of hematopoietic stem cells requires acute understanding of product collection, modification, and potential side effects. As these patients often require numerous platelet transfusions, platelet refractoriness may be encountered and practice options are discussed. We review current indications and guidelines for transfusion in hematopoietic stem cell patients and make recommendations for best practice based on current literature.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia is a known complication after ABO incompatible stem cell transplant. Due to rarity of disease, no established treatment guidelines are available for PRCA. Daratumumab is a monoclonal antibody against CD38 expressed by plasma cells. In this report we present our experience of successfully managing a patient of post-transplant PRCA with daratumumab. Our patient had failed multiple lines of therapy prior to receiving daratumumab. Response was seen after the 3rd weekly dose of daratumumab.

Abstract
Pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) is an uncommon complication secondary to ABO mismatched allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The best approach for PRCA after allo-HSCT remains unclear. We aim to report a single case with refractory PRCA post-ABO mismatched allo-HSCT resolved with daratumumab. A 34-year-old male diagnosed with aplastic anemia in March 2014 received a peripheral blood reduced-intensity allo-HSCT from an HLA-matched related donor in July 2016. Donor and recipient blood groups were AB positive and 0 positive, respectively, indicating a major ABO incompatibility. The patient was diagnosed with PRCA 2 months after allo-HSCT. After failing multiple standard lines of treatment, compassionate treatment with daratumumab was requested. After receiving six doses of daratumumab, the patient had a marked reticulocyte response and consecutively become transfusion independent. In conclusion, Daratumumab is a human IgG1κ monoclonal antibody targeting CD38 and is used to treat multiple myeloma. The use of anti-CD38 therapy with daratumumab to target residual host plasma cells is safe and effective, and it can be considered in refractory recipients with PRCA after allo-HSCT secondary to ABO incompatibility.

Abstract
The American Society for Apheresis (ASFA) Journal of Clinical Apheresis (JCA) Special Issue Writing Committee is charged with reviewing, updating and categorizing indications for the evidence-based use of therapeutic apheresis (TA) in human disease. Since the 2007 JCA Special Issue (Fourth Edition), the committee has incorporated systematic review and evidence-based approaches in the grading and categorization of apheresis indications. This Eighth Edition of the JCA Special Issue continues to maintain this methodology and rigor in order to make recommendations on the use of apheresis in a wide variety of diseases/conditions. The JCA Eighth Edition, like its predecessor, continues to apply the category and grading system definitions in fact sheets. The general layout and concept of a fact sheet that was introduced in the Fourth Edition, has largely been maintained in this edition. Each fact sheet succinctly summarizes the evidence for the use of TA in a specific disease entity or medical condition. The Eighth Edition comprises 84 fact sheets for relevant diseases and medical conditions, with 157 graded and categorized indications and/or TA modalities. The Eighth Edition of the JCA Special Issue seeks to continue to serve as a key resource that guides the utilization of TA in the treatment of human disease.

Abstract
Daratumumab, a human IgG1κ monoclonal antibody targeting CD38, is used to treat multiple myeloma. We describe successful treatment with daratumumab in a case of treatment-refractory pure red-cell aplasia after ABO-mismatched allogeneic stem-cell transplantation. The patient was a 72-year-old man with the myelodysplastic syndrome who received a transplant from an HLA-matched, unrelated donor with a major ABO incompatibility (blood group A in the donor and blood group O in the recipient). The patient had persistent circulating anti-A antibodies and no red-cell recovery 200 days after transplantation. Standard treatments had no effect. Within 1 week after the initiation of treatment with daratumumab, he no longer required transfusions.
