Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is indicated in pediatric patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who have relapsed or are at a very high risk of relapse during first complete remission. Two types of myeloablative conditioning are employed before allogeneic HSCT: total body irradiation (TBI)-based regimens and chemotherapy (CHT) alone. This study compares the efficacy and safety of TBI-based regimens and CHT-based conditioning in pediatric, adolescent, and young adult patients with ALL (0-24 years old). TBI-based and CHT-conditioning regimens were evaluated in 4262 and 1367 patients, respectively, from 15 studies. Compared to CHT alone, TBI-based regimens were associated with better overall survival (OS), relative risk (RR) 1.21, better event-free survival (RR 1.34), and a reduced risk of relapse (RR 0.69). Both approaches had comparable risk of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), grades 3 to 4 acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, and nonrelapse mortality (NRM). In the subgroup analysis for patients in first complete remission, TBI-based regimens and CHT alone had comparable OS and NRM. Our results demonstrate the superiority of TBI-based regimens compared to CHT alone in pediatric patients with ALL.

Impact of a Bayesian Individualization of Cyclosporine Dosage Regimen for Children Undergoing Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: A Cost-Effectiveness Analysis. Ther Drug Monit 2021; 43:481-489. [PMID: 33814541 DOI: 10.1097/ftd.0000000000000886] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 02/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cyclosporine A (CsA) is the main drug used to prevent graft-versus-host disease in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). CsA therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) has been performed for ages, with studies revealing clinical benefits, but failing to examine its economic impact. In this article, the main objective was to evaluate the economic impact of the CsA TDM strategy, based on a Bayesian approach, by assessing costs related to its clinical impact. Furthermore, TDM effectiveness was analyzed for pharmacokinetics and clinical outcomes. METHODS A cost-effective, nonrandomized, retrospective, single-center study compared 2 CsA monitoring and dose adaptation strategies in pediatric patients undergoing HSCT. From 2014 to 2016, CsA TDM was performed using a population pharmacokinetics model-coupled Bayesian approach by a pharmacist ["pharmacist-assisted individualization" (PAI)]. From 2017 to 2018, CsA TDM was performed by the clinician without a Bayesian approach (non-PAI group). HSCT costs were evaluated from the French National Insurance perspective. Economic and clinical outcomes were assessed by measuring incremental cost-effectiveness ratios. RESULTS The study included 144 patients: 90 and 54 patients in PAI and non-PAI groups, respectively. Both groups were comparable for sociodemographic and clinical characteristics. The mean total cost per patient was significantly lower (P < 0.01) in the PAI group (€85,947) than in the non-PAI group (€100,435). Multivariate analysis revealed that TDM based on the Bayesian approach was a protective factor (odds ratio = 0.86) for severe acute graft-versus-host disease. We noted that pharmacist-based TDM was the dominant strategy. Bayesian method-based TDM allowed an increase in the percentage of target attainment at any period post-HSCT. CONCLUSIONS CsA TDM with a Bayesian approach is a cost-effective procedure, and highlighted clinical benefits encourage the development of new TDM strategies for HSCT.

Comparison of outcomes after umbilical cord blood and unmanipulated haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Int J Cancer 2016; 139:2106-15.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective therapy for children with high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical HSCT (haplo-HSCT) or umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) are both important alternative sources of stem cells for those without an HLA-identical sibling donor or unrelated matched donor. We aimed to compare the therapeutic effects of single UCBT and unmanipulated haplo-HSCT in high-risk ALL children (n = 129). Hematopoietic recovery was significantly faster in haplo-HSCT recipients than in UCBT recipients. The 2-year cumulative incidences of relapse in the haplo-HSCT and UCBT groups were 16.1% and 24.1%, respectively (p = 0.169). The 2-year cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality in the haplo-HSCT and UCBT groups were 12.8% and 18.8%, respectively (p = 0.277). The 2-year probabilities of overall survival in the haplo-HSCT and UCBT groups were 82.0% and 69.6%, respectively (p = 0.071), and the 2-year probability of disease-free survival in the haplo-HSCT group was higher than in the UCBT group (71.0% vs. 57.2%, p = 0.040). However, several variables (such as leukocyte count and cytogenetics at diagnosis) were different between the groups, and a possible center effect should also be considered. In addition, only mild and moderate chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was associated with significantly improved survival compared to those without chronic GVHD in multivariate analysis. Thus, our results show that both unmanipulated haplo-HSCT and UCBT are valid for high-risk ALL children lacking a HLA matched donor, and both strategies expand the donor pool for children in need.
