Front Pharmacol 2023; 14:1195907. [PMID: 37680722 PMCID: PMC10482088 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2023.1195907] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 08/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: The role of body mass index (BMI) in the treatment outcomes of lymphoma patients is controversial. While investigating the efficacy of ABVD-like regimen in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) patients, we observed that obese patients had poor responses. To better understand this clinical phenomenon, we evaluated the effect of BMI on responses to ABVD-like chemotherapy in HL patients. Methods: This retrospective cohort study evaluated the clinical outcomes of all 67 patients with confirmed HL who were treated at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from November 2016 to March 2023 with an ABVD-like regimen as first-line chemotherapy. Baseline patient characteristics and clinical outcomes were compared across different BMI categories. The primary end-point was the overall response rate defined as the proportion of the HL patients who achieved complete response or partial response. The additional end-points included progression-free survival and overall survival. Results: The median age of the HL patients was 31 years old. Of the patients, 10.4% were obese, and 17.9% patients were overweight. Interim and end-term response evaluations revealed overall response rates of 98.5% and 83.6%, respectively. The proportion of patients with potential poor prognostic factors (IPS risk factors) did not differ significantly in the responders versus non-responders. However, non-responders had a higher average BMI when compared with responders (p = 0.002). Poor overall response rates in higher BMI patients indeed manifested with shorter progression free survival (p = 0.013). The minimum relative dose of the ABVD-like regimen in the overweight and obese groups was significantly lower than in the normal weight group (p < 0.001). Conclusion: Our analyses show that >80% of newly-diagnosed HL patients responded to the ABVD-like regimen. We find that being obese or overweight at the time of diagnosis correlated with a poorer overall response rate and that BMI was an independent risk factor in HL patients treated with the ABVD-like regimen. Lower doses of ABVD-like regimen contributed to the discrepant findings of responses in the high BMI groups. These findings indicate that newly-diagnosed, obese HL patients receiving an ABVD-like regimen require personalized treatment.

[PMID: 35887932 PMCID: PMC9317243 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11144169] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2022] [Revised: 07/13/2022] [Accepted: 07/14/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the correlation of body mass index (BMI) and proinflammatory cytokine levels with hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) mobilization triggered by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Stem cell donors (n = 309) were recruited between August 2015 and January 2018 and grouped into four groups according to their BMI: underweight (BMI < 18.5 kg/m2, n = 10), normal (18.5 kg/m2 ≦ BMI < 25 kg/m2, n = 156), overweight (25 kg/m2 ≦ BMI < 30 kg/m2, n = 102), and obese (BMI ≧ 30 kg/m2, n = 41). The participants were then administered with five doses of G-CSF and categorized as good mobilizers (CD34 ≧ 180/μL, n = 15, 4.85%) and poor mobilizers (CD34 ≦ 25/μL, n = 14, 4.53%) according to the number of CD34+ cells in their peripheral blood after G-CSF administration. The correlation between BMI and HSC mobilization was then analyzed, and the levels of proinflammatory cytokines in the plasma from good and poor mobilizers were examined by ProcartaPlex Immunoassay. Results showed that BMI was highly correlated with G-CSF-triggered HSC mobilization (R2 = 0.056, p < 0.0001). Compared with poor mobilizers, good mobilizers exhibited higher BMI (p < 0.001) and proinflammatory cytokine [interferon gamma (IFN-γ) (p < 0.05), interleukin-22 (IL-22) (p < 0.05), and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels (p < 0.05)]. This study indicated that BMI and proinflammatory cytokine levels are positively correlated with G-CSF-triggered HSC mobilization.

Price S, Kim Y. Body Composition Impacts Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Outcomes in Both Autologous and Allogeneic Transplants: A Systematic Review. Nutr Cancer 2021; 74:2731-2747.

Abstract
According to World Health Organization, over 50,000 hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCTs) are performed annually worldwide. Though HSCT can extend life-expectancy and improve disease-related health burdens, it is not without risks. Post-transplant overall survival is improving; therefore, it is imperative that factors contributing to or impeding further improvements are well understood. The purpose of this systematic review is to explore current data on body composition (specifically weight loss, BMI, obesity and sarcopenia) and the relation to HSCT outcomes. A literature search was conducted via PubMed and Web of Science databases. Key words included "body composition," "sarcopenia," "hematopoietic stem cell transplant," "malnutrition," "body mass index," and "obesity." Results indicated that 16 out of 18 analyzed studies found a statistically significant relationship between body composition, in particular higher BMI and weight loss, and at least one survival-related outcome variable (eg., non-relapse mortality, overall survival and/or relapse). Based on the findings of this review, body composition, whether evaluated before or during HSCT, can impact a wide variety of post-transplant outcomes. This speaks to the importance of evaluating patients pre-transplant, identifying potential risk factors for worsened outcomes, and providing immediate interventions in order to optimize transplant outcomes.

Long-acting granulocyte colony-stimulating factor pegfilgrastim (lipegfilgrastim) for stem cell mobilization in multiple myeloma patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation. Int J Hematol 2021; 114:363-372. [PMID: 34213732 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-021-03177-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2021] [Revised: 06/08/2021] [Accepted: 06/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a standard of care in newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) patients. Several studies before the introduction of novel therapies in MM, demonstrated a pegylated G-CSF to be successful in mobilizing peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs). Lipegfilgrastim is a novel long-acting G-CSF that is produced by the conjugation of a single 20-kDa polyethelene glycol to the natural O-glycosylation site of G-CSF. Twenty-four MM patients were included for PBSCs mobilization with a single SC injection of 6 mg lipegfilgrastim. PBSC collection was started when the CD34+ count was > 10 × 106 cells/L. The target progenitor cells were 6 × 106 cells/kg. The median day of apheresis was + 3 (range 2-5) following lipegfilgrastim. Median peripheral blood CD34+ count pre-mobilization was of 22.65 (range 3.36-105) × 106 cells/L. The median number of leukaphaeresis procedures was 2 (range 1-4). The median mobilized CD34+ cells/kg were 8.26 (range 0.77-12.42). One patient failed to mobilize and two patients mobilized < 6 × 106 cells/kg. Toxicity was mild and transient. Twenty-three patients underwent ASCT following high dose melphalan. All patients engrafted. As lipegfilgrastim is administered only once, it is conceivable that it improves both compliance and quality-of-life (NCT02488382).
