Abstract
There is lack of guidance for immune monitoring and infection prevention after administration of ex vivo genetically modified hematopoietic stem cell therapies (GMHSCT). We reviewed current infection prevention practices as reported by providers experienced with GMHSCTs across North America and Europe, and assessed potential immunologic compromise associated with the therapeutic process of GMHSCTs described to date. Based on these assessments, and with consensus from members of the International Society for Cell & Gene Therapy (ISCT) Stem Cell Engineering Committee, we propose risk-adapted recommendations for immune monitoring, infection surveillance and prophylaxis, and revaccination after receipt of GMHSCTs. Disease-specific and GMHSCT-specific considerations should guide decision making for each therapy.

Ann Hematol 2024:10.1007/s00277-024-05813-w. [PMID: 38809456 DOI: 10.1007/s00277-024-05813-w] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/30/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate whether BeEAM is an alternative to BEAM for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). METHODS Data of 60 patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL who underwent ASCT from January 2018 to June 2023 in our center, including 30 patients in the BeEAM group and 30 patients in the BEAM group, were retrospectively analyzed. The time to hematopoietic reconstitution, treatment-related adverse events, number of hospitalization days, hospitalization cost, and survival benefit were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The clinical characteristics of the patients did not significantly differ between the two groups. The median number of reinfused CD34 + cells was 5.06 × 106/kg and 5.17 × 106/kg in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively, which did not significantly different (p = 0.8829). In the BeEAM and BEAM groups, the median time to neutrophil implantation was 10.2 and 10.27 days, respectively (p = 0.8253), and the median time to platelet implantation was 13.23 and 12.87 days, respectively (p = 0.7671). In the BeEAM and BEAM groups, the median hospitalization duration was 30.37 and 30.57 days, respectively (p = 0.9060), and the median hospitalization cost was RMB 83,425 and RMB 96,235, respectively (p = 0.0560). The hospitalization cost was lower in the BeEAM group. The most common hematologic adverse events were grade ≥ 3 neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, whose incidences were similar in the two groups. The most common non-hematologic adverse events were ≤ grade 2 and the incidences of these events did not significantly differ between the two groups. Median overall survival was not reached in either group, with predicted 5-year overall survival of 72.5% and 60% in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively (p = 0.5872). Five-year progression-free survival was 25% and 20% in the BeEAM and BEAM groups, respectively (p = 0.6804). CONCLUSION As a conditioning regimen for relapsed or refractory DLBCL, BeEAM has a desirable safety profile and is well tolerated, and its hematopoietic reconstitution time, number of hospitalization days, and survival benefit are not inferior to those of BEAM. BeEAM has a lower hospitalization cost and is an alternative to BEAM.

Optimized BEAC conditioning regimen improves clinical outcomes of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Int J Hematol 2024:10.1007/s12185-024-03755-7. [PMID: 38587693 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-024-03755-7] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/11/2024] [Indexed: 04/09/2024]
Abstract
The conditioning regimen is an important part of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT). We explored the efficacy and safety of an optimized BEAC (adjusted-dose, intermediate-dose cytarabine and reduced-dose cyclophosphamide, AD-BEAC) conditioning regimen for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). A total of 141 NHL patients received AD-BEAC or a standard-dose BEAC (SD-BEAC) conditioning regimen from January 2007 to December 2017, and 104 patients were included in the study after 1:1 propensity matching. The 5-year overall survival (OS) and progression free survival (PFS) rates were significantly higher with AD-BEAC than with SD-BEAC (82.7% vs. 67.3%, P = 0.039; 76.9% vs. 57.7%, P = 0.039). Transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 3.8% in both the AD-BEAC and SD-BEAC groups. The AD-BEAC group had lower incidence of oral ulcers and cardiotoxicity than the SD-BEAC group. An optimized BEAC conditioning regimen is an effective conditioning regimen for ASCT in NHL with acceptable toxicity, that is more effective and safer than a standard BEAC conditioning regimen.

Abstract
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of noncoding RNAs of about 19-25 nucleotides, which serve as critical modulators of various cellular and biological processes by target gene regulation. Dysregulated expression of miRNAs modulates the pathophysiology of various human diseases, including cancer. Among miRNAs, miR-203a is one of the most extensively researched dysregulated miRNAs in different cancers. Our review investigated the roles of miR-203a in the hallmarks of cancer modulating different pathways through target gene regulations, chemoresistance, its crosstalk with other ncRNAs or genes in terms of ceRNAs impacting oncogenesis, and its potential applications in the diagnosis, prognosis, and chemotherapeutic responses in different cancer types. miR-203a impacts cancer cell behavior by regulating these exclusive hallmarks- sustaining proliferation, cell growth, invasion and metastasis, cell death, and angiogenesis. Besides, miR-203a is found in human circulating biofluids like plasma or serum of colorectal cancer, cervical cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma, hinting at its potential as a biomarker. Further, miR-203a is involved in enhancing the chemosensitivity of cisplatin, docetaxel, paclitaxel, doxorubicin, and 5-fluorouracil in a variety of malignancies through their cognate target genes. These results suggest that miR-203a is a crucial multifaceted miRNA that controls cancer cell proliferation, metastasis, and chemotherapy response, shedding new light on its possible application.

Abstract
Malignancies of the B-lymphocyte lineage are among the most diagnosed haematological malignancies in clinical practice. In our community, multiple myeloma (MM) and its precursor condition monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance are the commonest, accounting for ~12% of diagnoses, followed by chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) and its precursor condition monoclonal B lymphocytosis, ~9%. Along with diffuse large B cell lymphoma, follicular lymphoma and marginal zone lymphoma, these conditions comprise around a third of all haematological malignancies diagnosed. Infection remains an important cause of mortality and morbidity in the management of patients with these conditions. This is in part treatment-related but also reflective of disease-related immune dysfunction. Infectious complications account for up to 50% of early mortality in patients with myeloma and up to 50% of all mortality in patients with CLL. A variety of strategies are available to decrease the morbidity and mortality of infectious complications; however, practices vary between countries and often between treating physicians. Treatment options have evolved significantly over the last decade, with the introduction of monoclonal antibodies, small molecule inhibitors, second- and third-generation immunomodulatory agents and CAR-T cell therapy. Much of the data that inform clinical practice in infection management predates current therapeutic approaches. This is in part because of the rapid development of new therapies but also reflective of the long natural history of many of these diseases and the need for prolonged periods of observation. In this article, we review the aspects of disease and treatment that contribute to immune dysfunction in MM, CLL and B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma and review the current strategies used to manage immune dysfunction and infection.

Abstract
Lymphoma is the eighth most common type of cancer worldwide. Currently, lymphoma is mainly classified into two main groups: Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), with NHL accounting for 80% to 90% of the cases. NHL is primarily divided into B, T, and natural killer (NK) cell lymphoma. Nanotechnology is developing rapidly and has made significant contributions to the field of medicine. This review summarizes the advancements of nanobiotechnology in recent years and its applications in the treatment of NHL, especially in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), and follicular lymphoma (FL). The technologies discussed include clinical imaging, targeted drug delivery, photodynamic therapy (PDT), and thermodynamic therapy (TDT) for lymphoma. This review aims to provide a better understanding of the use of nanotechnology in the treatment of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Previous studies have suggested that the tyrosine kinase receptor RET plays a significant role in the hematopoietic potential in mice and could also be used to expand cord-blood derived hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). The role of RET in human iPSC-derived hematopoiesis has not been tested so far. METHODS To test the implication of RET on the hematopoietic potential of iPSCs, we activated its pathway with the lentiviral overexpression of RETWT or RETC634Y mutation in normal iPSCs. An iPSC derived from a patient harboring the RETC634Y mutation (iRETC634Y) and its CRISPR-corrected isogenic control iPSC (iRETCTRL) were also used. The hematopoietic potential was tested using 2D cultures and evaluated regarding the phenotype and the clonogenic potential of generated cells. RESULTS Hematopoietic differentiation from iPSCs with RET overexpression (WT or C634Y) led to a significant reduction in the number and in the clonogenic potential of primitive hematopoietic cells (CD34+/CD38-/CD49f+) as compared to control iPSCs. Similarly, the hematopoietic potential of iRETC634Y was reduced as compared to iRETCTRL. Transcriptomic analyses revealed a specific activated expression profile for iRETC634Y compared to its control with evidence of overexpression of genes which are part of the MAPK network with negative hematopoietic regulator activities. CONCLUSION RET activation in iPSCs is associated with an inhibitory activity in iPSC-derived hematopoiesis, potentially related to MAPK activation.

Abstract
Human body cells are stem cell (SC) derivatives originating from bone marrow. Their special characteristics include their capacity to support the formation and self-repair of the cells. Cancer cells multiply uncontrollably and invade healthy tissues, making stem cell transplants a viable option for cancer patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy (HDC). When chemotherapy is used at very high doses to eradicate all cancer cells from aggressive tumors, blood-forming cells and leukocytes are either completely or partially destroyed. Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is necessary for patients in those circumstances. The patients who undergo autologous transplants receive their own stem cells (SCs). The transplanted stem cells first come into contact with the bone marrow and then undergo engraftment, before differentiating into blood cells. ASCT is one of the most significant and innovative strategies for treating diseases. Here we focus on the treatment of Hodgkin's lymphoma, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and AL amyloidosis, using ASCT. This review provides a comprehensive picture of the effectiveness and the safety of ASCT as a therapeutic approach for these diseases, based on the currently available evidence.

Front Vet Sci 2023; 10:1301536.

Abstract
Targeted next-generation sequencing (NGS) enables the identification of genomic variants in cancer patients with high sensitivity at relatively low costs, and has thus opened the era to personalized human oncology. Veterinary medicine tends to adopt new technologies at a slower pace compared to human medicine due to lower funding, nonetheless it embraces technological advancements over time. Hence, it is reasonable to assume that targeted NGS will be incorporated into routine veterinary practice in the foreseeable future. Many animal diseases have well-researched human counterparts and hence, insights gained from the latter might, in principle, be harnessed to elucidate the former. Here, we present the TiHoCL targeted NGS panel as a proof of concept, exemplifying how functional genomics and network approaches can be effectively used to leverage the wealth of information available for human diseases in the development of targeted sequencing panels for veterinary medicine. Specifically, the TiHoCL targeted NGS panel is a molecular tool for characterizing and stratifying canine lymphoma (CL) patients designed based on human non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) research outputs. While various single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with high risk of developing NHL, poor prognosis and resistance to treatment in NHL patients, little is known about the genetics of CL. Thus, the ~100 SNPs featured in the TiHoCL targeted NGS panel were selected using functional genomics and network approaches following a literature and database search that shielded ~500 SNPs associated with, in nearly all cases, human hematologic malignancies. The TiHoCL targeted NGS panel underwent technical validation and preliminary functional assessment by sequencing DNA samples isolated from blood of 29 lymphoma dogs using an Ion Torrent™ PGM System achieving good sequencing run metrics. Our design framework holds new possibilities for the design of similar molecular tools applied to other diseases for which limited knowledge is available and will improve drug target discovery and patient care.

Abstract
PURPOSE We undertook a scoping review of the literature to synthesize what is known about lymphoma survivorship and develop a comprehensive set of lymphoma-specific survivorship recommendations. METHODS We searched the peer-reviewed literature from January 1995 to April 2022, focused on topics relevant to survivorship care in patients ≥ 18 years of age, treated curatively for non-Hodgkin's and Hodgkin's lymphoma, and in remission for at least 2 years. RESULTS We retained 92 articles; themes included late effects of treatment (53.3%, 49/92), particularly fatigue and sleep disturbances, and fertility, as well as psychosocial considerations of survivors (27.2%; 25/92), screening for secondary malignancies (22.8%; 21/92), outcomes of interventions to improve survivorship care (10.9%; 10/92), and best practices and elements for survivorship plans (8.7%; 8/92). While there were published guidelines for screening for recurrence and secondary malignancies, despite the considerable number of articles on the psychosocial aspects of survivorship care, there remains limited guidance on screening frequency and management strategies for anxiety and depression, sleep disturbances, and treatment-related fatigue within the lymphoma population. CONCLUSION We have developed a comprehensive set of lymphoma-survivorship recommendations; however, work is needed to adapt them to local healthcare contexts. IMPLICATIONS FOR SURVIVORS While there is a focus in the literature on the long-term psychosocial impacts of cancer and its treatment on lymphoma survivors, there remains no concrete recommendations on effective screening and management of detriments to quality of life such as anxiety, depression, fatigue, and distress, and availability of local resources vary widely.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy is an effective, individualized immunotherapy, and novel treatment for hematologic malignancies. Six commercial CAR-T cell products are currently approved for lymphatic malignancies and multiple myeloma. In addition, an increasing number of clinical centres produce CAR-T cells on-site, which enable the administration of CAR-T cells on site. The CAR-T cell products are either fresh or cryopreserved. Manufacturing CAR-T cells is a complicated process that begins with leukapheresis to obtain T cells from the patient's peripheral blood. An optimal leukapheresis product is crucial step for a successful CAR-T cell therapy; therefore, it is imperative to understand the factors that may affect the quality or T cells. The leukapheresis for CAR-T cell production is well tolerated and safe for both paediatric and adult patients and CAR-Τ cell therapy presents high clinical response rate in many studies. CAR-T cell therapy is under continuous improvement, and it has transformed into an almost standard procedure in clinical haematology and stem cell transplantation facilities that provide both autologous and allogeneic stem cell transplantations. In patients suffering from advanced haematological malignancies, CAR-T cell therapy shows incredible antitumor efficacy. Even after a single infusion of autologous CD19-targeting CAR-T cells in patients with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), long lasting remission is observed, and a fraction of the patients are being cured. Future novel constructs are being developed with better T cell persistence and better expansion. New next-generation CAR-T cells are currently designed to avoid toxicities such as cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Research on the quality of life has become of great importance. It is used by clinical researchers to compare the impact of treatment regimens on patients. The choice of treatment method may significantly depend on the patient's opinion. A cross-sectional study was conducted using the method of a diagnostic questionnaire survey. The research tools were the authors' questionnaire and the standardized WHOQOL-BREF. The study was conducted among patients with lymphoma, treated systemically. More than half of the surveyed patients assessed their overall quality of life as good (50%) and very good (6%), while the expressed satisfaction with health most often ranged from neutral (38%-neither good nor bad) to dissatisfactory (30%) and very dissatisfactory (6%). As regards the detailed domains, the area of physical functioning was rated the lowest, while for the remaining domains-psychological, social, environmental-values above average (60.38-64.30) were observed. Social support, particularly from the immediate family, resulted in a higher assessment of the quality of life. The occurrence of side effects related to anticancer treatment and the disease had a statistically significant impact on the decrease in the quality of life, particularly in the physical domain.

Abstract
Introduction Successful mobilization and collection of peripheral hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) are necessary for lymphoma patients eligible for myeloablative chemotherapy with subsequent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Albeit G-CSF alone or combined with chemotherapy is well-established methods for HSC mobilization, up to 40% of the patients fail to mobilize (poor mobilizer, PM). Plerixafor (PLX) is commonly used in PM patients resulting in increased migration of HSCs into peripheral blood and thus improves the collection outcome. Methods The prospective, multicenter, open-label, non-interventional OPTIMOB study assessed mobilization and collection parameter of patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma to get deep insights in the treatment of those patients in clinical routine focusing on PM patients. PM was defined as follows: (1) no achievement of ≥20 CD34+ progenitor cells/µL before first apheresis, (2) PLX administration at any time point during the observational period, (3) reduction of the initially planned CD34+ progenitor cell yield as necessity due to failed mobilization or HSC collection, and (4) no performance of apheresis due to low CD34+ progenitor level. Primary objective of the study was to assess mobilization success by the proportion of PM patients achieving >2 × 106 CD34+ progenitor cells/kg body weight on the first day of apheresis. Here, the data of the lymphoma cohort are presented. Results Out of 238 patients with lymphoma documented in the study, 32% were classified as PM. 87% of them received PLX. Demographic data revealed no obvious differences between PM and good mobilizing (GM) patients. All patients were treated highly individualized prior to mobilization. Majority of all PM patients were able to undergo apheresis (95%) and reached their individual requested CD34+ progenitor cell target (72%). 57% of the PM patients achieved >2.0 × 106 CD34+ progenitor cells/kg body weight on day 1 of apheresis and nearby 70% of them underwent ASCT. Median time to engraftment was similar in PM and GM patients of the lymphoma cohort. Conclusions Majority of PM patients with lymphoma were successfully mobilized and underwent ASCT. Most of them received PLX during the study.

Abstract
The optimal salvage chemotherapy regimen (SC) for relapsed/refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) prior to autologous stem cell transplant remains unclear. Moreover, although chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapies were recently approved for primary refractory DLBCL, head-to-head comparisons are lacking. We searched MEDLINE, EMBASE and CENTRAL to July 2022, for randomized trials that enrolled adult patients with R/R DLBCL and performed network meta-analyses (NMA) to assess the efficacy of SC and CAR-T therapies. NMA of SC (6 trials, 7 regimens, n = 1831) indicated that rituximab with gemcitabine, dexamethasone, cisplatin (R-GDP) improved OS and PFS over compared regimens. NMA of 3 CAR-T trials (n = 865) indicated that both axi-cel and liso-cel improved PFS over standard of care, with no difference in OS. Our results indicate that R-GDP may be preferred for R/R DLBCL over other SC compared. Longer follow-up is required for ongoing comparative survival analysis as data from CAR-T trials matures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early evaluation of symptoms and taking appropriate preventive measures can improve outcomes for patients with lymphoma undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This study aimed to examine the treatment and outcomes of patients with lymphoma undergoing HSCT. METHODS Patients with lymphoma undergoing SCT at a university hospital between 15.06.2018 and 15.06.2020, were selected for a retrospective study. The medical treatments of patients were obtained from the records on the Hospital Information Management System (HIMS) database. The study was reported following the STROBE checklist. RESULTS Sixty-four patients were analyzed. The mean age of the patients was 48.25 ± 16.93 (p = 0.76). Although relapse developed in 26 (40.6%) patients with lymphoma, remission was achieved in 38 (59.4%) patients. The incidence of skin graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) symptoms in patients with relapse [14(53.8%)] was found to be significantly higher than in patients in remission [4(10.5%)] (p < 0.001). The most common symptoms seen in patients undergoing HSCT were oral mucositis (78.1%), febrile neutropenia (68.8%), and anemia (56.3%). In the treatments applied after SCT, the administration of antifungal (p = 0.033), analgesic (p = 0.001), and anticoagulant (p = 0.008) treatments to the patients who were in remission compared with the relapsed patients was significant. Less courses (OR: 0.446; 95% CI: 0.22-0.907; p = 0.026), analgesic therapy (OR:6.22; 95% CI: 1.61-24.027; p = 0.008), and anticoagulant treatment (OR:7.13; %) 95 CI: 1.374-37.1; p = 0.019) were found to increase the risk of relapse. Because of the increase in the number of cures in SCT, the incidence of diarrhea (p = 0.016) and GIS GVHD (p = 0.022) was high. It was determined that the hospitalization period was shorter in patients with febrile neutropenia (p = 0.021), thrombocytopenia/bleeding (p = 0.031), and secretion (p = 0.036) symptoms. CONCLUSIONS Patients experienced severe symptoms such as oral mucositis, febrile neutropenia, and anemia due to HSCT, and necessary treatment was applied for the symptoms. Further clinical studies must determine the symptoms and patient outcomes associated with SCT. It is predicted that patients will benefit from regular follow-up of their symptoms and planning of appropriate evidence-based nursing interventions and that this will improve the quality of care to be offered to them and increase their life span.

Transplant Cell Ther 2023; 29:505.e1-505.e8. [PMID: 37160229 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2023.04.022] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 04/10/2023] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/11/2023]
Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) remains a cornerstone in the treatment of both Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and various non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) subtypes. BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) is the most frequently used conditioning regimen; however, owing due to limited availability and toxicity of carmustine, thiotepa-containing regimens have been suggested. We previously reported encouraging results in ASCT with a TECAM (thiotepa, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, and melphalan) conditioning regimen from 2000 to 2013. We aimed to update our experience with the TECAM regimen by adding our experience from 2013 to 2020 to the previously reported cohort. Moreover, we aimed to use the detailed data for the 2 transplant cohorts to identify improvements in ASCT outcomes in the recent era. We retrospectively analyzed all lymphoma patients who underwent ASCT at our center between January 2000 and December 2020. A total of 353 lymphoma patients were included (142 in the newer cohort added to 211 previously reported patients), all of whom were treated with our standard TECAM conditioning regimen. The cohort included 127 patients with HL, 107 with DLBCL, and 119 with other NHL subtypes. The newer cohort was characterized by significantly poorer Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG-PS) prior to ASCT (45.7% versus 19.3% with ECOG-PS ≥1; P < .01), whereas a higher proportion of patients entered transplantation in complete response (CR) (71.9% versus 47.8%; P < .01). The median follow-up after ASCT was 136.4 months (95% confidence interval [CI], 91.4 to 181.4 months). The 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates post-ASCT for the entire cohort were 59.8% and 79.3%, respectively. Evaluating the 303 of 353 patients (86.4%) who entered ASCT with a responsive disease-a population that represents today's approach to the selection of patients for ASCT-the 3-year PFS and OS rates were 61.5% and 81.9%, respectively. In this population, the 3-year PFS rate was 62.2% for HL, 62.6% for DLBCL, 64.3% for primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), and the 3-year OS rate were 90.1%, 75.2%, and 78.6%, respectively. OS was significantly better in the newer cohort (P < .01), but not when evaluating only patients who entered ASCT with responsive disease. Dose reductions, poor disease status, and poor ECOG-PS at ASCT entry were associated with worse outcomes across all lymphoma subtypes. In accordance with our previous report, patients entering transplantation for DLBCL with a partial response achieved similar outcomes as those with a CR. Eighteen patients died within the first 100 days, 8 due to disease progression and 10 due to transplantation-related complications (2.8%). There were no cases of interstitial pneumonitis syndrome. Twenty-two cases (6.2%) of secondary malignancies were documented. Our results confirm that TECAM is an effective and safe conditioning regimen for ASCT in patients with HL and various NHLs, including favorable results in PCNSL. Despite a higher proportion of frail patients, the newer cohort's outcomes were favorable, driven by better lymphoma control pretransplantation. In the DLBCL cohort, ECOG-PS had more prognostic value than achieving a CR pre-ASCT, a finding relevant to the optimal allocation of patients to different treatment options in the era of chimeric antigen receptor T cell availability.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hematopoietic autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a validated therapeutic strategy for lymphoma treatment and precise well-tolerated conditioning. Several conditioning methods are available, but the most commonly used are CVB, BEAM, and ICE, which are conventionally administered in 6 to 7 days. Since 2015, our program has moved toward noncryopreserved platforms that require concise times; therefore, we have modified the conditioning by reducing it to 4 to 5 days. In this study, we show our experience. METHODS We compared ASCT performed in our program before and after 2015 in lymphoma patients. Between 2000 and 2014 and from 2015 to 2022, we performed 46 and 61 ASCT procedures, respectively. RESULTS Since 2015, we observed a greater number of infused stem cells, fewer episodes of febrile neutropenia (60% vs. 37% P = .008), shorter hospitalizations (30 vs. 18 days P = .001), faster engraftment (20 vs. 14 days P = .001) and better progression-free survival (72 vs. 44 months P = .002). Additionally, a prolonged overall survival was observed at these results, and this prolonged survival is difficult to interpret due to the short follow-up. CONCLUSION In conclusion, conditioning adjusted for a noncryopreserved strategy offers at least similar or even better results than the cryopreserved strategy. Prospective studies are warranted.

High-dose Chemotherapy Impairs Cardiac Autonomic Control of Hospitalized Cancer Patients Undergoing Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. CLINICAL LYMPHOMA, MYELOMA & LEUKEMIA 2023; 23:e131-e138. [PMID: 36604245 DOI: 10.1016/j.clml.2022.12.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/29/2022] [Revised: 12/10/2022] [Accepted: 12/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients have intermediary and late cardiac autonomic dysfunction, which is an independent mortality predictor. However, it is unknown when this HSCT-related autonomic dysfunction begins during hospitalization for HSCT and whether cardiac autonomic control (CAC) is related to cardiotoxicity in these patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS CAC was assessed in 36 autologous-HSCT inpatients (HSCT group) and 23 cancer-free outpatients (CON group) using heart rate variability analysis. The HSCT group was assessed at five time-points from admission to hospital discharge during hospitalization period. The CON group was assessed once. The severity of cardiotoxicity (CTCAE 5.0) and cardiac troponin I were recorded. RESULTS The CAC was significantly reduced after high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) (reduction of MNN, SDNN, RMSSD, LFms2 and HFnu, and increase of LFnu and LF/HF; P<0.05). At the onset of neutropenia, pNN50 and HFms2 were also reduced (P<0.05) compared to the admission ones. Although both groups were similar regarding CAC at hospital admission, the HSCT patients showed impaired CAC at hospital discharge (P<0.05). The LF/HF was positively associated with cardiac troponin I and RMSSD was inversely associated with the severity of cardiotoxicity (P≤0.05). CONCLUSION CAC worsened during hospitalization for autologous-HSCT, mainly after HDC. In addition, it seems associated to early signs of cardiotoxicity in these patients.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Autologous peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation has become a standard treatment option for certain hematological malignancies. The collection of PBSCs for transplantation is a well-established process and the effectiveness can vary depending on the cell separator. We aimed to compare the effectivity of two devices, the Spectra Optia and the Amicus for autologous PBSC collection. We also evaluated the effect of the peripheral white blood cell (WBC) count on the CD34+ collection efficiency (CE2). METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 262 apheresis procedures performed in patients between 2015 and 2021 at the Apheresis Unit of our transplantation center. The PBSCs were collected by the Spectra Optia cell separator with continuous Mononuclear Collection (cMNC) (128 procedures) or the Amicus (MNC) (134 procedures). In addition to the apheresis parameters and product characteristics, we also evaluated the effect of the pre-apheresis peripheral WBC count on the CE2. RESULTS There was no significant difference in the CD34+ CE2 between the Spectra Optia and Amicus devices (median 65.06% and 68.24%, respectively, p = 0.070). In the Amicus group, the CE2 ratio was found to be statistically significantly higher in patients with a pre-apheresis peripheral WBC count of 15 × 109/L (median 81.70%, 68.06%, 61.35% and 58.13%, respectively, p < 0.001). CONCLUSION While both devices collected autologous PBSC effectively and safely, the Amicus provided a higher rate of CE2 at low pre-apheresis WBC counts. To our knowledge, this is the first study to evaluate the CE2 in autologous PBSC collection devices based on pre-apheresis WBC counts.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this retrospective study, we evaluated the effect of ferritin levels on the outcomes of autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with MM or lymphoma. METHODS In this study, 170 patients with measured ferritin levels within one month before transplantation who underwent ASCT with the diagnosis of MM or lymphoma were evaluated. The cut-off value of ferritin was determined as 500 ng/mL to evaluate the transplant outcomes in both groups. The hematological recovery status/duration, febrile neutropenia rate, hospitalization time, transplant-related mortality (TRM) in the first 100 days, and OS were evaluated according to the ferritin level RESULTS: Of all patients, 105 (61,8%) were diagnosed with MM and 65 (38.2%) with lymphoma. Ferritin levels had no statistically significant effect on the engraftment status/times, the febrile neutropenia rates, and hospitalization times of both lymphoma and myeloma patients (p > .05). Ferritin level was not significantly associated with TRM in MM (p = .224). However, in lymphoma, ferritin level was significantly associated with TRM (33.3% for ferritin level ≥500 ng/L vs. 5.3% for ferritin level ng/mL, p = .005). There was no statistically significant correlation between ferritin value and OS in MM group [ferritin level ≥ 500 ng/L: 39.9 months (95% CI: 33.7-46.1) and ferritin level 500 ng/mL: 39.4 months (95% CI: 36.5-42.2), p = .446]. Ferritin level was significantly associated with OS in patients with lymphoma [ferritin level ≥ 500 ng/L: 22.1 months 95% CI: 14.7-29.5), ferritin level 500 ng/mL: 27.3 months (95% CI: 22.4-32.2), p = .038] CONCLUSION: High ferritin level is important prognostic factor on survival after ASCT in patients with lymphoma.

Abstract
Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) therapy has transformed the care of patients with relapsed/refractory large B cell lymphoma (LBCL). However, approximately 60% of CAR-T recipients ultimately will experience disease recurrence or progression. Salvage therapies after CAR-T treatment failures are of limited efficacy and have a short duration of response. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the role of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) after CAR-T therapy in LBCL patients. This was a multicenter observational study reporting the outcome of 39 adult LBCL patients who underwent allo-HCT following anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy. The median patient age was 47 years (range, 20 to 68 years). HLA-matched sibling, HLA-matched unrelated, and alternative donors were used in 36%, 36%, and 28% of transplantations, respectively. Conditioning regimens were primarily of low or intermediate intensity. Disease status at allo-HCT was complete response in 41%, partial response in 38%, and progressive disease in 21%. Allo-HCT was performed at a median of 127 days (range, 82 to 206 days) after CAR-T therapy. A high incidence of hepatic toxicity (28%), including sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (15.4%; 95% confidence interval; [CI], 6.2% to 28.5%), was observed. The 1-year cumulative incidence of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 38.5% (95% CI, 23.2% to 53.6%) and 15.4% (95% CI, 6.1% to 28.5%), respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of moderate-severe chronic GVHD was 11.1% (95% CI, 3.3% to 24.3%). Overall, 2-year nonrelapse mortality and relapse/progression incidence were 26% (95% CI, 13% to 41%) and 43% (95% CI, 27% to 59%), respectively. With a median follow-up of 32 months, the 2-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 45% (95% CI, 31% to 66%) and 31% (95% CI, 19% to 50%), respectively. In multivariable analyses, pre-HCT elevated lactate dehydrogenase level and transformed lymphoma were predictive of OS and PFS, respectively. Our data suggest that allo-HCT after anti-CD19 CAR-T treatment failure is feasible with a relatively promising efficacy but possibly high toxicity rate.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established therapeutic strategy for the treatment of malignant (leukemia and lymphoma) and non-malignant (thalassemia, anemia, and immunodeficiency) hematopoietic diseases. Thanks to the improvement in patient care and the development of more tolerable conditioning treatments, which has extended the applicability of therapy to the elderly, a growing number of patients have successfully benefited from HSCT therapy and, more importantly, HSCT transplant-related mortality has consistently reduced in recent years. However, concomitantly to long term patient survival, a growing incidence of late HSCT-related sequelae has been reported, being variably associated with negative effects on quality of life of patients and having a non-negligible impact on healthcare systems. The most predominantly observed HSCT-caused complications are chronic alterations of the endocrine system and metabolism, which endanger post-operative quality of life and increase morbidity and mortality of transplanted patients. Here, we specifically review the current knowledge on HSCT-derived side-effects on the perturbation of mineral metabolism; in particular, the homeostasis of calcium, focusing on current reports regarding osteoporosis and recurrent renal dysfunctions that have been observed in a percentage of HSC-transplanted patients. Possible secondary implications of conditioning treatments for HSCT on the physiology of the parathyroid glands and calcium homeostasis, alone or in association with HSCT-caused renal and bone defects, are critically discussed as well.

Abstract
PURPOSE High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is the standard management for relapsed or high-risk non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). We reported the busulfan, melphalan, and etoposide (BuME) conditioning regimen was effective in patients with relapsed or high-risk NHL. Moreover, the busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (BuCE) conditioning regimen has been used widely in ASCT for NHL. Therefore, based on these encouraging results, this randomized phase II multicenter trial compared the outcomes of BuME and BuCE as conditioning therapies for ASCT in patients with NHL. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients were randomly assigned to receive either BuME (n=36) or BuCE (n=39). The BuME regimen was comprised of busulfan (3.2 mg/kg/day, intravenously) administered on days -7, -6, and -5, etoposide (400 mg/m2 intravenously) on days -5 and -4, and melphalan (50 mg/m2/day intravenously) on days -3 and -2. The BuCE regimen was comprised of busulfan (3.2 mg/kg/day intravenously) on days -7, -6, and -5, etoposide (400 mg/m2/day intravenously) on days -5 and -4, and cyclophosphamide (50 mg/kg/day intravenously) on days -3 and -2. The primary endpoint was 2-year progression-free survival (PFS). RESULTS Seventy-five patients were enrolled. Eleven patients (30.5%) in the BuME group and 13 patients (33.3%) in the BuCE group had disease progression or died. The 2-year PFS rate was 65.4% in the BuME group and 60.6% in the BuCE group (p=0.746). There were no non-relapse mortalities within 100 days after transplantation. CONCLUSION There were no significant differences in PFS between the two groups. Therefore, busulfan-based conditioning regimens, BuME and BuCE, may be important treatment substitutes for the BCNU-containing regimens.

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.

Comparison of Mitoxantrone-Melphalan and BEAM Conditioning Regimens in Patients with Lymphoma. Hematol Oncol Stem Cell Ther 2022; 15:201-207. [PMID: 33933474 DOI: 10.1016/j.hemonc.2021.03.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/16/2020] [Revised: 03/20/2021] [Accepted: 03/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/14/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE/BACKGROUND Lymphoma is seen as a highly treatable and curable malignancy with aggressive treatment methods. Efficacy is often limited by toxicity and many patients need alternative treatment strategies as they cannot tolerate existing high cytotoxic approaches. Our aim is to compare BEAM [carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine (ARA-C, cytosine arabinoside), and melphalan] and mitoxantrone-melphalan (Mx-Mel) regimens utilized in our patients with a diagnosis of lymphoma who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), and to demonstrate that the Mx-Mel regimen has similar but less toxic results than the BEAM regimen we have been using frequently as standard conditioning regimen. METHODS A total of 101 patients with lymphoma who underwent ASCT were included in our study. The BEAM regimen included BCNU, etoposide, ARA-C, and melphalan. The Mx-Mel regimen included mitoxantrone and melphalan. RESULTS Of 101 patients included in the study, 60 (59.4%) received BEAM and 41 (40.6%) received Mx-Mel (40.6%) conditioning regimen. The median time to neutrophil engraftment was 10 (range: 9-20) days and 12 (range: 9-12) days in the BEAM and Mx-Mel arms, respectively; it was statistically significantly shorter in the BEAM arm (p = .001). CONCLUSION This study demonstrates that the Mx-Mel regimen has similar efficacy and toxicity compared with the BEAM regimen. Although time to neutrophil engraftment was shorter in the BEAM arm, it did not result as significant transplant-related complications between the two regimens. The Mx-Mel regimen is seen as a good alternative with low toxicity and high efficacy.

[PMID: 36453136 PMCID: PMC9753434 DOI: 10.1111/jcmm.17550] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2022] [Revised: 07/06/2022] [Accepted: 07/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapy has shown promising efficacy in relapsed and refractory diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). While most patients undergo CAR T infusion with active disease, the impact of some clinical variables, such as responsiveness to the pre-CAR T chemotherapy on the response to CAR T, is unknown. In this single-institution study, we studied the impact of several pre-CAR T variables on the post-CAR outcomes. Sixty patients underwent apheresis for axicabtagene-ciloleucel (axi-cel) and 42 of them (70.0%) had primary refractory disease. Bridging therapy between apheresis and lymphodepletion was given in 34 patients (56.7%). After axi-cel, the overall response rate was 63.3%. Responsiveness to the immediate pre-CAR T therapy did not show a significant association with response to axi-cel, progression-free (PFS) or overall (OS) survival. Multivariable analysis determined that bulky disease before lymphodepletion was independently associated with inferior outcomes, and patients that presented with high-burden disease unresponsive to immediate pre-CAR T therapy had a dismal outcome. This data supports proceeding with treatment in CAR T candidates regardless of their response to immediate pre-CAR T therapy. Interim therapeutic interventions should be considered in patients who have known risk factors for poor outcomes (bulky disease, high LDH).

Abstract
Here, we report the first comparative analysis of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) with chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy vs standard-of-care (SOC) therapy in second-line relapsed/refractory large B-cell lymphoma (R/R LBCL) from the pivotal randomized phase 3 ZUMA-7 study of axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) vs SOC. PRO instruments were administered at baseline, day 50, day 100, day 150, month 9, and every 3 months from randomization until 24 months or an event-free survival event. The quality of life (QoL) analysis set comprised patients with a baseline and ≥1 follow-up PRO completion. Prespecified hypotheses for Quality of Life Questionnaire-Core 30 (QLQ-C30) physical functioning, global health status/QoL, and EQ-5D-5L visual analog scale (VAS) were tested using mixed-effects models with repeated measures. Clinically meaningful changes were defined as 10 points for QLQ-C30 and 7 for EQ-5D-5L VAS. Among 359 patients, 296 (165 axi-cel, 131 SOC) met inclusion criteria for QoL analysis. At day 100, statistically significant and clinically meaningful differences in mean change of scores from baseline were observed favoring axi-cel over SOC for QLQ-C30 global health status/QoL (estimated difference 18.1 [95% confidence interval (CI), 12.3-23.9]), physical functioning (13.1 [95% CI, 8.0-18.2]), and EQ-5D-5L VAS (13.7 [95% CI, 8.5-18.8]; P < .0001 for all). At day 150, scores significantly favored axi-cel vs SOC for global health status/QoL (9.8 [95% CI, 2.6-17.0]; P = .0124) and EQ-5D-5L VAS (11.3 [95% CI, 5.4-17.1]; P = .0004). Axi-cel showed clinically meaningful improvements in QoL over SOC. Superior clinical outcomes and favorable patient experience with axi-cel should help inform treatment choices in second-line R/R LBCL. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03391466.

Abstract
Objective: Efficacy and safety analysis of pegylated recombinant human granulocyte colony stimulating factor (PEG-rhG-CSF) in promoting hematopoietic recovery after autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in patients with lymphoma. Methods: A total of 149 patients after auto-HSCT in Ruijin Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine were enrolled in this study from April 2016 to December 2021. There were 75 cases in the PEG-rhG-CSF group who were given a single subcutaneous dose of 100 µg/kg on the first day and +8 d, while 74 cases in the rhG-CSF group were given a dose of 5-10 µg·kg(-1)·d(-1) by subcutaneous injection from +1d continuing to an absolute value of neutrophil (ANC) of more than 1.5×10(9)/L. Results: ①The time of grade 3/4 agranulocytosis and neutrophil implantation in the PEG-rhG-CSF group were significantly different from that in rhG-CSF group (P=0.010, 0.030, 0.007) . There were no significant differences in the platelet implantation time, anemia incidence and duration, and platelet and red blood cell infusion within 1 month after transplantation between groups. ②The agranulocytosis with fever incidence in PEG-rhG-CSF group was similar to that in rhG-CSF group (84.0% vs 82.4% , P=0.798) , but the duration was shorter in the PEG-rhG-CSF group (4.0 d vs 5.5 d, P=0.005) . ③The incidence of infection in the PEG-rhG-CSF and the rhG-CSF groups were 22.7% (17/75) and 31.1% (23/74) , respectively (P=0.247) , and the bloodstream infection incidence were 5.3% (4/75) and 9.5% (7/74) , respectively (P=0.336) . ④The PEG-rhG-CSF group and rhG-CSF group's mean length of hospital stay were 31.5 (23-43) days and 37 (25-75) days, respectively (P<0.001) . ⑤The PEG-rhG-CSF group and rhG-CSF group's disease-free survival rates were (96.4±2.5) % and (94.7±2.6) % (P=0.638) , respectively, and the OS rates were 100.0% and (98.6±1.3) % (P=0.312) , respectively. Conclusion: PEG-rhG-CSF application after auto-HSCT in patients with lymphoma can promote hematopoietic granulocyte reconstruction and shorten hospital stay, but has no significant effect on the incidence of infection, disease-free survival, and overall survival after transplantation.

Inspiratory muscle training in addition to conventional physical rehabilitation in hospitalized patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: a randomized controlled trial. Support Care Cancer 2022; 30:9393-9402. [PMID: 36173561 DOI: 10.1007/s00520-022-07373-z] [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: 12/18/2021] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the effect of inspiratory muscle training (IMT) in addition to conventional physical rehabilitation on muscle strength, functional capacity, mobility, hemodynamics, fatigue, and quality of life in hospitalized patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). METHODS We conducted a randomized controlled trial in 57 inpatients with hematological diseases undergoing HSCT. Conventional inpatient physical rehabilitation was delivered to the IMT (n = 27) and control (CON; n = 30) groups according to usual care, and the first group additionally performed IMT. The IMT was prescribed according to clinical and laboratory parameters at 40% of maximal inspiratory pressure (MIP), 5 days/week throughout the hospitalization, in sessions of 10-20 min. The primary outcome was MIP and the secondary outcomes were maximal expiratory pressure (MEP), peripheral muscle strength (handgrip and sit-to-stand tests), functional capacity (6-min step test), mobility (timed up and go test), blood pressure, quality of life (EORTC-QLQ-C30), and fatigue (FACT-F) at admission and hospital discharge. RESULTS The population was predominately autologous HSCT. The IMT group significantly increased the MIP (P < 0.01) and decreased both fatigue (P = 0.01) and blood pressure (P < 0.01) compared with control. No differences were found between admission and hospital discharge in peripheral and expiratory muscle strength, functional capacity, mobility, and quality of life in both groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Our results support the effectiveness of IMT as part of rehabilitation for HSCT inpatients, improving inspiratory muscle strength, and reducing fatigue and blood pressure.

Abstract
Objective: This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of cladribine, smustine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, and cytarabine (C+SCAV) and smustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (SEAM) conditioning regimens in autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) . Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 NHL patients who received auto-HSCT in the Department of Hematology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Suzhou University, from March 2018 to May 2021. The C + SCAV group and SEAM group had 19 and 42 patients, respectively. Results: ① Among the 61 patients with NHL, 37 were male and 24 were female. The median age was 48 (21-66) years old. There were 19 cases in the C+SCAV group and 42 cases in the SEAM group. There was no significant difference in the baseline characteristics between the two groups (P>0.05) . ② The median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment in the C+SCAV cohort were 10 (8-15) days and 13 (9-22) days, respectively, which does not differ from the SEAM group (P=0.103, P=0.403) . ③ No differences existed between the two groups in terms of survival. The 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) was (76.5±10.3) % for patients receiving C+SCAV and (78.4±6.8) % for those who received SEAM (P=0.841) . The 1-year overall survival was 100.0% for the C+SCAV group and 95.2±3.3% for the SEAM group (P=0.339) . ④The 1-year PFS of patients with complete remission in the C+SCAV group was similar to those who in the SEAM group [ (92.3±7.4) % vs (82.5±7.2) %, P=0.406]. ⑤ The incidence of non-hematological serious adverse events (≥ grade 3) in the C+SCAV group and SEAM group were 10.5% (2/19) and 40.5% (17/42) (P=0.013) , the incidence of severe mucositis was 5.3% (1/19) and 31.0% (13/42) (P=0.015) , and the incidence of severe infection (≥ grade 3) was 10.5% (2/19) and 19.0% (8/42) (P=0.389) , respectively. Conclusion: C + SCAV conditioning regimen appeared to be no different from the SEAM regimen in terms of survival. It can lower the incidence of SAE and does not increase the risk of severe infection. As a result, it can be used as an alternative conditioning regimen for lymphoma patients undergoing auto-HSCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Here we asked, whether contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) enables to judge early treatment response in malignant lymphoma as a potential guidance for further treatment. METHODS From May 2017 to May 2018, 21 patients with histologically confirmed diagnosis of lymphoma were examined by B-mode ultrasound (B-US) and CEUS at fixed early time points after commencing therapy (days [d] 0, 15 and 30 after therapy start) and contrast enhancement patterns in target lymphoma lesions were quantified using Bracco-VUE Box® (DCE-US). To estimate the potential value of CEUS-enhancement patterns for early response prediction, patients were grouped according to their best achieved actual response into complete remission (CR) patients, partial remission (PR) patients or progressive disease (PD) patients. RESULTS Between d0, d15 and d30, CR-patients showed a median lymphoma shrinking by 34% in B-US. PD-patients experienced a median lymphoma size reduction by 44% on day 15, but lymphoma mass again increased by 20% between d15 and d30. In contrast, the median CEUS enhancement intensity, as assessed by the area under the curve (AUC) was increasing at d15 in CR and PD patients (CR to 152%, PD: to 126%), but decreased at d30 to 14% in CR patients and 22% in PD patients. CONCLUSIONS While early response assessment using B-US might be useful to predict treatment response in lymphoma, CEUS and DCE-US-although often feasible-do not provide additional value in this regard.

Abstract
There are no data in Argentina on the response rates to first-line treatment of classical Hodgkin Lymphoma (cHL) outside clinical trials. A total of 498 patients from 7 public and private hospitals in Argentina were retrospectively examined. The median follow-up was 37.4 months (CI 95% 17.7–63.5). The median time from diagnosis to treatment was 22 days (IQR 14–42), which was significantly longer in public hospitals (49.3 (IC 95% 38.5–60.2) versus 32.5 (IC 95% 27–38); p = 0.0027). A total of 96.8% of patients were treated with ABVD.:84.3% achieved complete remission (CR) and 6.02% partial remission (PR), being the CR rate higher in private hospitals. End-of-treatment metabolic CR was achieved in 85.4% (n = 373). The interim PET scan was widely used in our cohort (70.5%; n = 351), but in only 23.3% (n = 116) was the treatment strategy response-adapted. The 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 76% (CI 95% 70–81). The 2 and 5-years-OS rates were 91% (CI 95% 88–94%) and 85% (CI 95% 80–89%), respectively. No differences in OS were found between public and private institutions (p = 0.27). This is one of the largest retrospective cHL cohorts reported. In Argentina ABVD is the chemotherapy regimen of choice and, although it is well tolerated, it is not exempt from toxicity. We showed that early initiation of treatment impacts the induction results. Although the use of PET scan is widespread, only a minority of patients was treated with respons- adapted strategies. The use of PET-guided treatment is strongly encouraged.

Abstract
Lymphoma is a common malignant tumor globally. Tumor-derived extracellular vesicles (Evs) participate in genetic information exchange between tumor cells. We investigated the role and mechanism of human Burkitt lymphoma cells Raji-derived Evs (Raji-Evs) in lymphoma cells. Effects of Evs on lymphoma cell proliferation, invasion, autophagy, and apoptosis were assessed using Cell Counting Kit-8 method, Transwell assay, laser confocal microscopy, Western blotting, and flow cytometry. microRNA (miR)-106a expression in lymphoma cells was determined using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction and then downregulated in Raji cells and then Evs were isolated (Evs-in-miR-106a) to evaluate its role in lymphoma cell growth. The binding relationship between miR-106a and Beclin1 was verified using RNA pull-down and dual-luciferase assays. Beclin1 was overexpressed in SU-DHL-4 and Farage cells and SU-DHL-4 cell autophagy and apoptosis were detected. The levels of miR-106a and Beclin1 in SU-DHL-4 cells were detected after adding autophagy inhibitors. The tumorigenicity assay in nude mice was performed to validate the effects of Raji-Evs in vivo. Raji-Evs promoted lymphoma cell proliferation and invasion and increased miR-106a. miR-106a knockdown reversed Evs-promoted lymphoma cell proliferation and invasion. miR-106a carried by Raji-Evs targeted Beclin1 expression. Beclin1 overexpression or miR-106a inhibitor reversed the effects of Evs on lymphoma cell autophagy and apoptosis. Autophagy inhibitors elevated miR-106a expression and lowered Beclin1 expression. Raji-Evs-carried miR-106a inhibited Beclin1-dependent autophagy and apoptosis in lymphoma cells, which were further verified in vivo, together with promoted tumor growth. We proved that Raji-Evs inhibited lymphoma cell autophagy and apoptosis and promoted cell growth via the miR-106a/Beclin1 axis.

Abstract
Cellular therapies offer a promising therapeutic strategy for the highly malignant brain tumor, glioblastoma (GBM). However, their clinical translation is limited by the lack of effective target identification and stringent testing in pre-clinical models that replicate standard treatment in GBM patients. In this study, we show the detection of cell surface death receptor (DR) target on CD146-enriched circulating tumor cells (CTC) captured from the blood of mice bearing GBM and patients diagnosed with GBM. Next, we developed allogeneic "off-the-shelf" clinical-grade bifunctional mesenchymal stem cells (MSCBif) expressing DR-targeted ligand and a safety kill switch. We show that biodegradable hydrogel encapsulated MSCBif (EnMSCBif) has a profound therapeutic efficacy in mice bearing patient-derived invasive, primary and recurrent GBM tumors following surgical resection. Activation of the kill switch enhances the efficacy of MSCBif and results in their elimination post-tumor treatment which can be tracked by positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. This study establishes a foundation towards a clinical trial of EnMSCBif in primary and recurrent GBM patients.

Abstract
Hematological malignancy like lymphoma originates in lymph tissues and has a propensity to spread across other organs. Managing such tumors is challenging as conventional strategies like surgery and local treatment are not plausible options and there are high chances of relapse. The advent of novel targeted therapies and antibody-mediated treatments has proven revolutionary in the management of these tumors. Although these therapies have an added advantage of specificity in comparison to the traditional chemotherapy approach, such treatment alternatives suffer from the occurrence of drug resistance and dose-related toxicities. In past decades, nanomedicine has emerged as an excellent surrogate to increase the bioavailability of therapeutic moieties along with a reduction in toxicities of highly cytotoxic drugs. Nanotherapeutics achieve targeted delivery of the therapeutic agents into the malignant cells and also have the ability to carry genes and therapeutic proteins to the desired sites. Furthermore, nanomedicine has an edge in rendering personalized medicine as one type of lymphoma is pathologically different from others. In this review, we have highlighted various applications of nanotechnology-based delivery systems based on lipidic, polymeric and inorganic nanomaterials that address different targets for effectively tackling lymphomas. Moreover, we have discussed recent advances and therapies available exclusively for managing this malignancy.

Abstract
Conditioning with treosulfan and fludarabine (Treo/Flu) has been proven to be feasible and efficient in several types of malignancies before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Given its favorable reduced toxicity profile, we introduced Treo/Flu as conditioning before autologous HSCT (auto-HSCT) in patients with B-cell Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Treo/Flu in comparison to TEAM. Fifty-seven patients with NHL received auto-HSCT after conditioning with either Treo/Flu (n = 22) or TEAM (n = 35). All patients achieved sustained engraftment. PFS, EFS and OS were not significant in both groups. Of note is that patients in the Treo/Flu group were less dependent on thrombocyte transfusions (p = 0.0082), significantly older (in median 11 years, p < 0.0001) and suffered less frequently from infectious complications (p = 0.0105), mucositis and stomatitis (p < 0.0001). This study is the first to present efficacy, feasibility, and safety of conditioning with Treo/Flu preceding auto-HSCT in patients with NHL. Since it demonstrated a lack of significant difference in comparison to TEAM conditioning it might be a valuable alternative especially in elderly patients with B-cell NHL and comorbidities. Further evaluation by prospective clinical trials is warranted.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The prognosis of patients with early relapsed or refractory large B-cell lymphoma after the receipt of first-line chemoimmunotherapy is poor. METHODS In this international, phase 3 trial, we randomly assigned, in a 1:1 ratio, patients with large B-cell lymphoma that was refractory to or had relapsed no more than 12 months after first-line chemoimmunotherapy to receive axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel, an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy) or standard care (two or three cycles of investigator-selected, protocol-defined chemoimmunotherapy, followed by high-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem-cell transplantation in patients with a response to the chemoimmunotherapy). The primary end point was event-free survival according to blinded central review. Key secondary end points were response and overall survival. Safety was also assessed. RESULTS A total of 180 patients were randomly assigned to receive axi-cel and 179 to receive standard care. The primary end-point analysis of event-free survival showed that axi-cel therapy was superior to standard care. At a median follow-up of 24.9 months, the median event-free survival was 8.3 months in the axi-cel group and 2.0 months in the standard-care group, and the 24-month event-free survival was 41% and 16%, respectively (hazard ratio for event or death, 0.40; 95% confidence interval, 0.31 to 0.51; P<0.001). A response occurred in 83% of the patients in the axi-cel group and in 50% of those in the standard-care group (with a complete response in 65% and 32%, respectively). In an interim analysis, the estimated overall survival at 2 years was 61% in the axi-cel group and 52% in the standard-care group. Adverse events of grade 3 or higher occurred in 91% of the patients who received axi-cel and in 83% of those who received standard care. Among patients who received axi-cel, grade 3 or higher cytokine release syndrome occurred in 6% and grade 3 or higher neurologic events in 21%. No deaths related to cytokine release syndrome or neurologic events occurred. CONCLUSIONS Axi-cel therapy led to significant improvements, as compared with standard care, in event-free survival and response, with the expected level of high-grade toxic effects.

Reappraising the Role of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed and Refractory Hodgkin’s Lymphoma: Recent Advances and Outcomes. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12020125. [PMID: 35207613 PMCID: PMC8880200 DOI: 10.3390/jpm12020125] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/22/2021] [Revised: 01/04/2022] [Accepted: 01/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/07/2022] Open
Abstract
Hodgkin’s lymphoma is a rare yet highly curable disease in the majority of patients treated with modern chemotherapy regimens. For patients who fail to respond to or relapse after initial systemic therapies, treatment with high-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can provide a cure for many with chemotherapy-responsive lymphoma. Patients who relapse after autologous transplant or those with chemorefractory disease have poor prognosis and represent a high unmet need. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation provides a proven curative therapy for these patients and should be considered, especially in young and medically fit patients. The use of newer agents in this disease such as brentuximab vedotin and immune checkpoint inhibitors can help bring more patients to transplantation and should be considered as well.

Gong D, Aronow ME, Eliott D. Rapid, Spontaneous Resolution of Prominent Subretinal Infiltrate in Vitreoretinal Lymphoma. JOURNAL OF VITREORETINAL DISEASES 2022; 6:80-85. [PMID: 37007723 PMCID: PMC9976220 DOI: 10.1177/24741264211009804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose: This case report describes a patient with vitreoretinal lymphoma who subacutely developed a large, peripapillary subretinal infiltrate that rapidly and spontaneously resolved. Methods: A case report is presented. Results: A 65-year-old Asian-American woman was referred for evaluation of a dense, peripapillary subretinal infiltrate in the left eye. A diagnostic vitrectomy revealed large, atypical lymphocytes with irregularly shaped nuclei, and mutational testing was positive for myeloid differentiation primary response 88 ( MYD88). Prior to surgery, the patient’s subretinal infiltrate had begun to resolve spontaneously, a process that continued after surgery without initiation of systemic or local ocular therapy. Conclusions: Patients with vitreoretinal lymphoma may present with transient, subretinal infiltrates that can resolve without treatment.

Abstract
Neutropenia postchemotherapy is associated with favorable outcomes, which was attributed to optimal dosing. However, little is known about the neutrophil decline rate as a predictor of cancer outcomes, which may reflect a dynamic marker of chemosensitivity. We assessed the association between the neutrophil decline rate and disease outcomes in a known cohort of 212 lymphoma patients, treated with thiotepa, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, cytarabine, and melphalan (TECAM) conditioning followed by autologous transplant in our center between 2000 and 2013. Slower neutrophil decline rate was correlated with worse overall survival, mediated not by shorter time to progression (TTP), but rather by worse survival post-progression, possibly pointing to chemosensitivity at each line of therapy as the responsible mechanism. The effect was seen across histologies and was independent of stronger predictors of outcome like performance status (PS) and response before transplant. Prospective research is needed to confirm our results and expand their validity to other clinical scenarios.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have emerged as an effective therapy for patients with relapsed and refractory haematological malignancies. However, there are many challenges preventing clinical efficacy and thus broader translation of this approach. These hurdles include poor autologous T cell fitness, manufacturing issues and lack of conserved tumour-restricted antigens to target. Recent efforts have been directed toward incorporating genome editing technologies to address these challenges and develop potent CAR T cell therapies for a diverse array of haematopoietic cancers. In this review, the authors discuss gene editing strategies that have been employed to augment CAR T cell fitness, generate allogeneic ‘off-the-shelf’ CAR T cell products, and safely target elusive myeloid and T cell cancers that often lack appropriate tumour-specific antigens.

Abstract
Thiotepa, an antineoplastic ethylenimine alkylating agent that can penetrate the central nervous system, was recently approved in Japan as high-dose chemotherapy prior to autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for patients with malignant lymphoma. To further evaluate the safety and efficacy of thiotepa, a multicenter, open-label, non-comparative, expanded access program was undertaken in Japan, including a larger population of Asian patients with malignant lymphoma. Intravenous thiotepa (200 mg/m2/day) was administered over 2 h on days -4 and -3 before scheduled HSCT, plus intravenous busulfan (0.8 mg/kg) over 2 h every 6 h on days -8, -7, -6 and -5. In the safety analysis population (N = 51), 25 patients (49.0%) had primary central nervous system lymphomas. The most common treatment-emergent adverse event was febrile neutropenia (49/51 [96.1%]). No unexpected safety events were observed, and no event resulted in death or treatment modification. Forty-seven patients (92.2%) had engraftment (neutrophil count ≥ 500/mm3 for three consecutive days after bone-marrow suppression and HSCT). The survival rate at day 100 post-transplantation was 100%. These data confirm the safety of thiotepa prior to autologous HSCT for patients with malignant lymphoma. Trial registration: JapicCTI-173654.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is a severe or even fatal inflammatory status. Lymphoma associated hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (LAHS) is a kind of secondary HLH (sHLH). It suffers the worst outcome among sHLH. Allo-HSCT is often considered necessary. Autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT) is widely used in the treatment of lymphoma, especially for high-risk NHL. There have been no clinical reports on the use of auto-SCT in LAHS in the past 20 years. METHODS We retrospectively evaluated 12 LAHS patients who received auto-SCT at our center from January 2013 to January 2020. Follow-up started at the date of LAHS diagnosis and ended at the date of death or last examination. Overall survival (OS) was calculated from the diagnosis of HLH to death of any cause. RESULTS The median period between diagnosis and auto-SCT is 6.7 months. All 12 patients achieved remission after transplantation. Follow-up to 1 January 2021, 8 patients remained disease-free, 4 patients relapsed and 2 of them died eventually. The median follow-up time is 20.9 months, and the median overall survival time has not been reached yet. The 3-year OS rates was 71%. Compared with LAHS patients who did not undergo transplantation during the same period (median OS time is 3.4 months), patients who underwent auto-SCT had a significantly better prognosis (P=0.001). Even if the lymphoma reaches CR after treatment, auto-SCT still provides a better prognosis compared to CR patients without transplantation (P=0.037). Compared with lymphoma patients without HLH who underwent auto-SCT during the same period, they had a similar prognosis (P=0.350). CONCLUSION LAHS, as a common type in secondary HLH, may have a better prognosis after removing the trigger of HLH. In this study, the autologous transplantation in LAHS can significantly improve the prognosis, and provide LAHS a similar prognosis as high-risk lymphoma without HLH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Consolidation with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is recommended for patients with recurrent or refractory lymphoma after salvage chemotherapy. Stem cells which will be used in ASCT are provided by mobilization using granulocyte colony stimulation factor (G-CSF) or chemotherapy plus G-CSF. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of various mobilization regimens on the clinical parameters of lymphoma patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mobilization interventions of lymphoma patients were analysed retrospectively. The patients were divided into 3 groups according to the mobilization method implemented to collect stem cells before ASCT, (Group 1: Salvage chemotherapy plus G-CSF, Group 2: Cyclophosphamide plus G-CSF, Group 3: G-CSF alone). RESULTS Analysis of CD34+ cell counts of the 3 groups revealed a significant difference (p < 0.001). Although the number of CD34+ cells collected were different, the neutrophil and platelet engraftment of the 3 groups were similar (p > 0.05). Furthermore, the results were similar in the separate analysis of NHL and HL patients. While the mobilization success rate in group 1 was 97.8 %, it was 90.2 % in group 3. This difference showed a certain trend towards statistical significance (p = 0.074). Patients who received DHAP plus G-CSF had a higher CD34+ count, while neutrophil engraftment was shorter than with ESHAP plus G-CSF (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION Although the success rate of mobilization and number of CD34+ cell collected were higher in the salvage chemotherapy plus G-CSF than G-CSF alone, G-CSF alone group provided similar neutrophil and thrombocyte engraftment in most lymphoma patients.

Abstract
Primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) is a rare but highly aggressive subtype of extra nodal non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), which is confined in the central nervous system (CNS). Despite recent advancements in treatment options, the overall prognosis of PCNSL remains poor. Among many unfavorable factors affecting efficacy, inadequate drug delivery into the CNS is still the thorniest challenge. Blood-brain barrier (BBB) constitutes a significant impediment, restricting entry of most therapeutics to the brain. Nanotechnology has offered great promise for brain diseases, as various nano-based drug delivery systems (NDDSs) have been developed for delivery of theranostic agents in to the CNS. These drug delivery systems possess significant advantages, including good feasibility, reliable safety profile, excellent BBB penetration and potent antitumor effects. As for treatment of PCNSL, numerous well-developed BBB-crossing nano-based strategies can be applied with proper modifications and improvements. Some exquisitely designed NDDSs specific for PCNSL have shown great potential. In this review, we provide a summary on current status of diagnosis and treatment of PCNSL, followed by an overview of BBB-crossing strategies applied in management of PCNSL, both novel and wellestablished. Finally, challenges and future perspectives in this field are also discussed.

Symptom prevalence and health-related quality of life in patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation - A longitudinal observational study. Eur J Oncol Nurs 2021; 53:101997. [PMID: 34294574 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejon.2021.101997] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/10/2020] [Revised: 04/16/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/21/2022]
Abstract
PURPOSE The aims of this study are to assess symptoms, health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and associations between symptoms and HRQoL in adult patients with myeloma or lymphoma undergoing autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) during the pre- and post-transplantation phases in the outpatient setting. METHODS This longitudinal, observational study conducted at a Swiss tertiary care hospital assesses the prevalence, frequency, severity and distress of symptoms, as well as HRQoL prior to hospital admission (T1), within two weeks after hospital discharge (T2) and three months after hospital discharge (T3). The study uses an adapted version of the Memorial Symptom Assessment Scale and the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy - Bone Marrow Transplant. Correlations between symptoms and HRQoL are explored. RESULTS The total cohort included 47 patients. Participants experienced the highest mean number of symptoms (7.58, SD ± 2.67) within two weeks after hospital discharge. At T1, participants reported a mean of 6.29 (SD ± 2.49) symptoms, and 5.28 (SD ± 2.42) at T3. Lack of energy, numbness/tingling in hands/feet and pain were the most prevalent and distressing symptoms. The overall HRQoL scores varied only moderately (range 0-188); mean HRQoL scores were 142.95 (SD ± 21.06) at T1, 139.87 (SD ± 21.92) at T2 and 147.54 (SD ± 23.27) at T3. No significant correlations were found between symptoms and HRQoL. CONCLUSION Because of the high symptom prevalence during the first few weeks after hospital discharge, a systematic symptom assessment in this period is needed with the aim of intervening at an early stage and reducing the patient's symptom burden.

Abstract
Purpose In the present study, we mainly aimed to evaluate the prognostic value of 2-deoxy-2-[18F]fluoro-D-glucose ([18F]F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) after autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in lymphoma. Procedures. A total of 76 lymphoma patients who benefited from [18F]F-FDG PET-CT (within 3 months and 3–6 months) after ASCT in our institution between April 2010 and December 2019 were enrolled in this retrospective study. These abovementioned patients were divided into two groups based on the Deauville criteria. The Kaplan–Meier method was used in survival analysis, and the log-rank method was adopted in comparison. Prognostic factor analysis was performed by the Cox regression model. Results Positive post-ASCT [18F]F-FDG PET-CT was associated with lower progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) (p = 0.001 and p = 0.022, respectively). Univariate analysis showed the post-ASCT PET-CT result was the only independent factor associated with PFS (p = 0.002). Both the number of previous treatments and post-ASCT PET-CT result had a different impact on OS (p = 0.040 and p = 0.028, respectively). Multivariate analysis showed the post-ASCT PET-CT result was the only independent factor associated with OS (p = 0.028). The results showed no significant change from the abovementioned results when DS < 3 was defined as the negative result. For patients who had a PET-CT scan within 3–6 months after ASCT, the negative PET-CT group had a better prognosis including PFS and OS (p = 0.009 and p = 0.025, respectively). However, among the patients receiving PET-CT within 3 months, the result was not statistically significant (p = 0.064 and p = 0.445, respectively). Conclusion Collectively, we found that the post-ASCT [18F]F-FDG PET-CT was a strong indicator for PFS and OS, and a time window of 3–6 months was appropriate for post-ASCT [18F]F-FDG PET-CT. Trial registration number: ChiCTR2100042745.
