Utility of routine pulmonary function test after autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation in lymphoma. Leuk Lymphoma 2023; 64:2279-2285. [PMID: 37690007 PMCID: PMC10981269 DOI: 10.1080/10428194.2023.2256912] [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: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 09/04/2023] [Indexed: 09/11/2023]
Abstract
This study aims to evaluate the predictive value of routine pulmonary function testing (PFT) at the 12-month mark post-autologous hematopoietic cell transplant (AHCT) in identifying clinically significant lung disease in lymphoma survivors. In 247 patients, 173 (70%) received BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan), and 49 (20%) received TBC (thiotepa, busulfan, cyclophosphamide) conditioning regimens. Abnormal baseline PFT was noted in 149 patients (60%). Thirty-four patients had a significant decline (reduction of >/= 20% in DLCO or FEV1 or FVC) in post-AHCT PFT, with the highest incidence in the CNS lymphoma group (39%). The incidence of clinically significant lung disease post-transplant was low at 2% and there was no association between abnormal pre- and 1-year post-transplant PFTs with the development of clinical lung disease. While this study illustrates the impact of treatment regimens on PFT changes, it did not demonstrate a predictive value of scheduled PFTs in identifying clinically significant post-AHCT lung disease.

Cardiovascular events among recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation-A systematic review and meta-analysis. Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:478-490.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are an emerging cause of mortality and morbidity in survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT); however, the incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) in this population is not well described. This systematic review summarizes the evidence on the incidence of CVEs in HSCT recipients. Medline and Embase were searched from inception to December 2020. Inclusion criteria were cohort studies and phase 3 randomized controlled trials that reported CVEs among adults who underwent HSCT for hematological malignancies. After reviewing 8386 citations, 57 studies were included. The incidence of CVEs at 100 days was 0.19 (95% CI: 0.17-0.21) per 100 person-days after autologous HSCT and 0.06 (95% CI: 0.05-0.07) per 100 person-days after allogeneic HSCT. This higher incidence after autologous HSCT was driven by reports of arrhythmia from one population-based study in patients with multiple myeloma. The incidence of long-term CVEs was 3.98 (95% CI; 3.44-4.63) per 1000 person-years in survivors of autologous HSCT and 3.06 (95% CI; 2.69-3.48) per 1000 person-years in survivors of allogeneic HSCT. CVEs remain an important but under-reported cause of morbidity and mortality in recipients of HSCT. Future studies are required to better understand the incidence and risk factors for CVEs in HSCT recipients.

A Retrospective Comparison of Mitoxantrone-Melphalan and BEAM Conditioning Regimens Before Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Relapsed/Refractory Lymphoma Patients. Indian J Hematol Blood Transfus 2022; 38:92-98. [PMID: 35125716 PMCID: PMC8804056 DOI: 10.1007/s12288-021-01439-4] [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: 07/29/2020] [Accepted: 04/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) is considered the standard therapy for patients with relapsed lymphoma. The aim of our study is the comparison of mitoxantrone-melphalan and BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabin and melphalan) conditioning regimens before autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant in patients with lymphoma. This study has been performed in a retrospective manner. Hundred and two patients with relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 35) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n = 67) who underwent high-dose treatment followed by AHSCT at Memorial Sisli Hospital between 2013 and 2018 were evaluated. We retrieved data on patient demographics, disease status and post AHSCT outcomes. For conditioning regimen 52 patients received mitoxantrone (60 mg/m2 × 1 day) and melphalan (180 mg/m2 × 1 day) and 50 patients received BEAM (carmustine at 300 mg/m2 × 1 day, etoposide at 200 mg/m2 × 4 days, cytarabine at 2 × 200 mg/m2 × 4 days and melphalan at 140 mg/m2 × 1 day). The median age was 45 (18-73) years at the time of the diagnosis. No significant difference was observed in baseline characteristics between groups, including the disease control and previous therapies. Prior to high-dose chemotherapy, 79.4% of the patients were in complete remission (CR) and 20.6% was in partial remission (PR). With a median follow up of 30.5 months (range: 1-70 months) for the whole cohort, even though the OS was similar in both groups (86% ± 2.4 vs. 84% ± 3.2; p = 0.85), the PFS was noted to be superior among those who received conditioning with BEAM protocol (55% ± 3.7) compared to those with mitoxantrone-melphalan (30.6% ± 2.8; p = 0.006). In conclusion, we demonstrated that the BEAM regimen is an effective high-dose chemotherapy for lymphoma patients before AHSCT. Nevertheless mitoxantrone-melphalan regimen is also an alternative to the BEAM regimen.

Abstract
When a cardiologist is asked to evaluate the cardiac toxic effects of chemotherapy, he/she can use several tools: ECG, echocardiography, coronary angiography, ventriculography, and cardiac MRI. Of all these, the fastest and easiest to use is the ECG, which can provide information on the occurrence of cardiac toxic effects and can show early signs of subclinical cardiac damage. These warning signs are the most desired to be recognized by the cardiologist, because the dose of chemotherapeutics can be adjusted so that the clinical side effects do not occur, or the therapy can be stopped in time, before irreversible side effects. This review addresses the problem of early detection of cardiotoxicity in adult and pediatric cancer treatment, by using simple ECG recordings.

Abstract
Although drug-induced liver injury (DILI) is a rare clinical event, it carries significant morbidity and mortality, leaving it as the leading cause of acute liver failure in the United States. It is one of the most challenging diagnoses encountered by gastroenterologists. The development of various drug injury networks has played a vital role in expanding our knowledge regarding drug-related and herbal and dietary supplement-related liver injury. In this review, we discuss what defines liver injury, epidemiology of DILI, its biochemical and pathologic patterns, and management.

Abstract
Background: Impaired lung function has been detected in up to 65% of all childhood cancer survivors. It is often caused by exposure to radiation therapy and various chemotherapeutics. The first cytotoxic drug ever identified as a causative agent of lung injury was busulfan, reported in the early 1960s. Signs and symptoms of busulfan lung are nonspecific and it is therefore difficult to differentiate the condition from pulmonary impairment caused by other pulmotoxic agents, infections, pulmonary metastases, graft-versus-host disease, or other noninfectious post-transplant complications involving the lungs. Methods: A case example is provided to illustrate the difficulties in management of busulfan-induced lung injury in children. A retrospective review of cases of busulfan-induced lung injury indexed in PubMed until March 2019 was performed. Inclusion criteria for articles was available in full text in English. Results: Impaired lung function caused by busulfan may become an increasing problem for young survivors. Conclusion: Newly developed dyspnea or subclinical damage detected on pulmonary function tests, indicating primarily restrictive disease, should always arouse suspicion of busulfan-induced lung injury in a child conditioned with busulfan, especially after excluding other leading culprits of pulmonary damage affecting oncology patients.

Abstract
Background/aim High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has become the standard approach for patients with relapsed/refractory Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) or non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL). In this study, we report the outcome of the mitoxantrone-melphalan conditioning regimen for lymphoma. Materials and methods The study group included 53 patients who were relapsed/refractory HL (n = 14) and NHL (n = 39) and received mitoxantrone and melphalan followed by ASCT. The transplant regimen consisted of mitoxantrone (60 mg/m2) and melphalan (180 mg/m2) followed by peripheral blood stem cell infusion (PBSC). Results Prior to high-dose chemotherapy, 37.7% of the patients were in complete remission (CR) and 45.3% were in partial remission (PR), and 17% had stable or progressive disease. After high-dose chemotherapy and PBSC, 44 out of 51 patients achieved CR (86.2%). CR was achieved in 24 out of 33 patients (72.7%) who were transplanted in a marginally active phase of the disease. At a median followup of 25.4 months (1.8–131.3 months) after ASCT, 13 patients relapsed/progressed and 8 patients died. The estimated 2-year overall survival (OS) was 81.9%, and event-free survival (EFS) was 59.3%. Conclusion High-dose chemotherapy followed by ASCT is an effective conditioning regimen in relapsed/refractory lymphoma patients who are undergoing ASCT.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine whether the modified BuCy (semustine, cytarabine, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide, mBuCy) conditioning regimen can be safely used as an alternative to the SEAM (semustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) regimen by comparing the efficacy and toxicity of the mBuCy and SEAM regimens. We matched 34 pairs of patients with regard to disease status at the time of autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT). We found no significant difference in the time of platelet engraftment between the two groups. Furthermore, neutrophil engraftment was somewhat faster in the mBuCy group than in the SEAM group (median: 9 days vs 10 days, p = 0.015). With regard to toxicity, the incidence of nausea/vomiting, hepatic impairment, renal impairment, pulmonary infection, and treatment-related mortality (TRM) was similar between the two groups. In addition, compared to patients conditioned with SEAM, patients conditioned with mBuCy were less likely to develop mucositis and diarrhea (p = 0.027; p = 0.050). The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates in the mBuCy and SEAM groups were 79% and 70% (p = 0.378), respectively, and the 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 81% and 78.0%, respectively (p = 0.789). These analyses showed that the mBuCy conditioning regimen was well tolerated and can be used as an alternative to the SEAM regimen for lymphoma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obstructive and restrictive dysfunction in long-term lymphoma survivors (LSs) after high-dose therapy with autologous stem-cell transplantation (HDT-ASCT) has not been addressed systematically previously. MATERIAL AND METHODS LSs treated in Norway 1987-2008 with HDT-ASCT who performed spirometry, measurement of static lung volumes and echocardiography 2012-2014 at either Oslo or St. Olavs University Hospitals was eligible. Smoking data were recorded by questionnaire. Treatment data were collected from medical records or hospital databases. Factors associated with obstructive and restrictive impairments (dichotomous outcomes) were examined by Poisson regression. Linear regression with the margins post-estimation command was used to derive adjusted mean values of forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). We used the normative reference data recommended by the European Respiratory Society for calculating percent predicted values. RESULTS A total of 226 LSs were studied, of whom 11.5 and 5.8% had obstructive and restrictive impairment, respectively. For women and men, mean FEV1 was 2.31 and 3.34 l corresponding to 11.4%- and 11.1%-points below that predicted from norms, respectively. In multivariable regression analyses, cumulative doxorubicin dose (400-775 mg/m2) and current smoking were associated with increased risk of obstructive impairment, and chest RT (>13-66 Gy) was associated with increased risk of restrictive impairment. Currently smoking LSs within the highest doxorubicin category (400-775 mg/m2), had the lowest adjusted mean FEV1. CONCLUSIONS Despite intensive cancer treatment, our analysis showed modest reductions in obstructive parameters among long-term LSs after HDT-ASCT compared to normative reference data. To limit obstructive impairments in LSs after HDT-ASCT, we suggest that targeted smoking-cessation advice is directed towards patients who have received high cumulative doses of doxorubicin.

Abstract
Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is an important cause of infertility and also cause menopausal symptoms, which greatly reduced the quality of life for women. Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), as an important strategy, improved the quality of life for patients, however, the role of HRT in promoting fertility remains controversial. Therefore, seeking an optimal regime for POI becomes more urgent. In this study, we established POI model induced by CTX and BUS and utilized bone marrow derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) transplantation to treat the POI. We found that the decrease of estrogen and the increase of FSH induced by administration of CTX and BUS were rescued by BM-MSC transplantation. H&E staining and TUNEL assay showed that there were more healthy ovarian follicles and less apoptosis of ovarian cells after treatment with BM-MSCs. Further studies showed that there was an obvious decrease of Bax, p53, and p21 after transplantation, however, CyclinD2 was increased. In conclusion, our results demonstrated that BM-MSCs could restore injured ovarian function. Inhibiting apoptosis and promoting residual ovarian cell proliferation may contribute to the process.

Abstract
When a patient with suspected drug-induced liver injury (DILI) undergoes liver biopsy, the pathologist is confronted with two major challenges. The first and most important is to establish the pattern(s) of injury which are present. Patterns of injury represent stereotypical responses of an organ to injury and relate to specific aetiologies of liver damage. The pattern of injury and the histological details of that injury can then be analysed with respect to the patient's intercurrent diseases and medication history. The specific expertise of the pathologist can be used to weigh the prospect of DILI against the likelihood of other explanations of injury. The second challenge is to characterize specific types of injury and the severity of injury, both of which may have importance for clinical decision-making and prognosis. The pathologist's report should convey both an accurate description of the pathology as well its interpretation.

Abstract
The prognosis of central nervous system (CNS) relapse of systemic non-Hodgkin lymphoma is poor with 1-year survival historically at 0% to 20%. Aiming to improve these results, we performed a multicenter phase 2 study in patients with a CNS relapse, with or without concurrent systemic relapse. Treatment consisted of 2 cycles of R-DHAP alternating with high-dose methotrexate (MTX) and was combined with intrathecal rituximab. Responding patients received a third R-DHAP-MTX cycle followed by busulfan and cyclophosphamide myeloablative therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation. In patients with persistent cerebrospinal fluid lymphoma after cycle 1, the intrathecal rituximab was replaced by intrathecal triple therapy, with MTX, cytarabine, and dexamethasone. Thirty-six patients were included. Eighteen had evidence of cerebrospinal fluid lymphoma, 24 had brain parenchymal disease, and 20 (56%) had concurrent systemic disease. The overall response rate after 2 R-DHAP-MTX was 53% (19/36), with 22% (8/36) complete remission. Fifteen patients (42%) underwent a transplant. One-year progression-free survival was 19% (95% confidence interval, 9-34): 25% in patients without and 15% in patients with systemic disease. One-year overall survival was 25% (95% confidence interval, 12-40). This treatment regimen did not result in a major improvement of outcome of secondary CNS lymphoma, especially when concurrent systemic disease was present.

Abstract
Busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide (BuCyE) is a commonly used conditioning regimen for autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). This multicenter, phase II study examined the safety and efficacy of BuCyE with individually adjusted busulfan based on preconditioning pharmacokinetics. The study initially enrolled Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients ages 18 to 80 years but was amended due to high early treatment-related mortality (TRM) in patients > 65 years. BuCyE outcomes were compared with contemporaneous recipients of carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research. Two hundred seven subjects with HL (n = 66) or NHL (n = 141) were enrolled from 32 centers in North America, and 203 underwent ASCT. Day 100 TRM for all subjects (n = 203), patients > 65 years (n = 17), and patients ≤ 65 years (n = 186) were 4.5%, 23.5%, and 2.7%, respectively. The estimated rates of 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) were 33% for HL and 58%, 77%, and 43% for diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL; n = 63), mantle cell lymphoma (MCL; n = 29), and follicular lymphoma (FL; n = 23), respectively. The estimated rates of 2-year overall survival (OS) were 76% for HL and 65%, 89%, and 89% for DLBCL, MCL, and FL, respectively. In the matched analysis rates of 2-year TRM were 3.3% for BuCyE and 3.9% for BEAM, and there were no differences in outcomes for NHL. Patients with HL had lower rates of 2-year PFS with BuCyE, 33% (95% CI, 21% to 46%), than with BEAM, 59% (95% CI, 52% to 66%), with no differences in TRM or OS. BuCyE provided adequate disease control and safety in B cell NHL patients ≤ 65 years but produced worse PFS in HL patients when compared with BEAM.

Abstract
AIM This study aims to investigate the expression levels of elastin and lysyl oxidase (LOX) family members in the urogenital tissues of natural aging mice and accelerated ovarian aging mice. METHOD Uteri, vaginas and bladders were harvested from 18-month-old female mice and accelerated ovarian aging mice developed by chemotherapeutic agents. Untreated 3-month-old female mice were used as controls. The expression levels of elastin and LOX family members were determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction and western blot. RESULTS Compared with untreated young female mice, the expression of elastin and LOX family members significantly decreased both in natural aging mice and accelerated ovarian aging mice. CONCLUSION Aging is a high-risk factor for pelvic floor disorders. The failure of elastic fiber synthesis and assembly due to the decline in expression levels of elastin and LOX family members during aging may explain the molecular mechanism causing pelvic floor disorders.

Abstract
There are limited data to guide the choice of high-dose therapy (HDT) regimen before autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) for patients with Hodgkin (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). We studied 4917 patients (NHL, n = 3905; HL, n = 1012) who underwent AHCT from 1995 to 2008 using the most common HDT platforms: carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) (n = 1730); cyclophosphamide, BCNU, and etoposide (CBV) (n = 1853); busulfan and cyclophosphamide (BuCy) (n = 789); and total body irradiation (TBI)-containing treatment (n = 545). CBV was divided into CBV(high) and CBV(low) based on BCNU dose. We analyzed the impact of regimen on development of idiopathic pulmonary syndrome (IPS), transplantation-related mortality (TRM), and progression-free and overall survival. The 1-year incidence of IPS was 3% to 6% and was highest in recipients of CBV(high) (hazard ratio [HR], 1.9) and TBI (HR, 2.0) compared with BEAM. One-year TRM was 4% to 8%, respectively, and was similar between regimens. Among patients with NHL, there was a significant interaction between histology, HDT regimen, and outcome. Compared with BEAM, CBV(low) (HR, .63) was associated with lower mortality in follicular lymphoma (P < .001), and CBV(high) (HR, 1.44) was associated with higher mortality in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (P = .001). For patients with HL, CBV(high) (HR, 1.54), CBV(low) (HR, 1.53), BuCy (HR, 1.77), and TBI (HR, 3.39) were associated with higher mortality compared with BEAM (P < .001). The impact of specific AHCT regimen on post-transplantation survival is different depending on histology; therefore, further studies are required to define the best regimen for specific diseases.

Abstract
We retrospectively examined the outcomes of 56 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who underwent autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) with BEAM/BEAC (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan/cyclophosphamide) or busulfan (Bu)-containing conditioning regimens. The Bu group had lower disease-related mortality and more frequent achievement of complete remission (CR) after ASCT from partial remission (PR) or refractory status before ASCT compared with the BEAM/BEAC group. The estimated 2-year EFS (59.3% vs. 15.0%) and overall survival (OS) (70.2% vs. 42.0%) in pre-ASCT rituximab-exposed patients with DLBCL were higher in the Bu group. In patients with high-risk DLBCL exposed to rituximab with first remission, the Bu group had better EFS (p = 0.004) and OS (p = 0.053) rates, while survival rates for relapsed/refractory patients did not differ between groups. Bu regimens are highly effective for preparing patients with DLBCL with previous exposure to rituximab for ASCT, especially in high-risk patients who achieved a first remission.

Abstract
Since the outcome of relapsed/refractory aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is highly variable, a risk-adapted treatment approach was evaluated. After two cycles of DHAP, patients received high-dose treosulfan/etoposide/carboplatinum (TEC) and autologous stem cell rescue. After TEC, low-risk patients with late relapse (>1 year after first CR who achieved CR after DHAP received no further treatment. Patients with late relapse who achieved CR or PR only after TEC underwent a second cycle of TEC. High-risk patients with early relapse/refractory disease received treosulfan/fludarabine followed by allogeneic transplantation. Rituximab was added in patients with B-cell lymphoma (86%). At entry, 36% of all 57 patients had refractory disease, 32% early and 32% late relapse. During DHAP treatment, progression occurred in 32% of patients. Of 33 patients who received TEC, 5 received second TEC and 15 allogeneic transplantation. Main toxicity after TEC was oral mucositis (CTC grades 3 and 4 in 50% and 13%, respectively). In total, 42% patients achieved CR. Median OS was 21.4 months for all patients and 32.6 for those who underwent allogeneic transplantation. International prognostic index (IPI) at study entry was highly discriminative at predicting OS (P<0.0001). Risk-adapted, treosulfan-based therapy with auto- and allo-SCT is feasible. Long-term survival is possible with allogeneic transplantation.

Abstract
Busulfan/cyclophosphamide (Bu/Cy) conditioning regimen has been widely used to treat cancer patients, while their effects on major internal organs in females are not fully understood. We treated female mice with Bu/Cy, and examined the histopathology of major internal organs on Day 30 after the treatment. The results show that Bu/Cy treatment affected the ovaries most extensively, while it had less effect on the spleen, lungs, and kidneys, and no effect on the heart, liver, stomach, and pancreas. To better understand the effect of Bu/Cy on the ovaries, we counted follicles, and determined the levels of ovarian steroids. The Bu/Cy-treated mice showed a reduction of primordial and primary follicles (P<0.01) on Day 30 and a marked loss of follicles at all developmental stages (P<0.01) on Day 60. Plasma levels of estradiol and progesterone in Bu/Cy-treated mice decreased by 43.9% and 61.4%, respectively. Thus, there was a gradual process of follicle loss and low estradiol in Bu/Cy-treated mice; this is a profile similar to what is found in women with premature ovarian failure (POF). The Bu/Cy-treated mice may serve as a useful animal model to study the dynamics of follicle loss in women undergoing POF.

Abstract
Despite the relatively high long-term disease-free survival (DFS) rate for patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) with modern combination chemotherapy or combined modality regimens, ∼20% of patients die from progressive or relapsed disease. The standard treatment for relapsed and primary refractory HL is salvage chemotherapy followed by high-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), which has shown a 5-year progression-free survival rate of ∼50%-60%. Recent developments in a number of diagnostic and therapeutic modalities have begun to improve these results. Functional imaging, refinement of clinical prognostic factors, and development of novel biomarkers have improved the predictive algorithms, allowing better patient selection and timing for ASCT. In addition, these algorithms have begun to identify a group of patients who are candidates for more aggressive treatment beyond standard ASCT. Novel salvage regimens may potentially improve the rate of complete remission prior to ASCT, and the use of maintenance therapy after ASCT has become a subject of current investigation. We present a summary of developments in each of these areas.

Phase I trial and pharmacokinetic study of high-dose clofarabine and busulfan and allogeneic stem cell transplantation in adults with high-risk and refractory acute leukemia.

Abstract
We conducted a phase I trial to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of clofarabine with high-dose busulfan followed by allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) in patients with high-risk and refractory acute leukemia. Patients received intravenous busulfan 0.8 mg/kg every 6 h on days -6 to -3 and clofarabine 30-60 mg/m(2) per day on days -6 to -2. Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis included sirolimus plus tacrolimus (days -2 to +180). A total of 15 patients, median age 48 (30-58) years, with acute leukemia that was relapsed and refractory (n=8), primary refractory (n=6), or in CR2 (n=1), were treated at four clofarabine dose levels: 30 (n=3), 40 (n=3), 50 (n=3) and 60 mg/m(2) per day (n=6) with busulfan. All engrafted, and the MTD was not reached. Grades 3-4 non-hematological toxicities included vomiting (n=3), mucositis (n=9), hand-foot syndrome (n=1), acute renal failure (n=1) and reversible elevation of aspartate aminotransferase/alanine aminotransferase (n=10). The 1-year event-free survival was 53% (95% confidence interval: 33-86%), and the 1-year overall survival was 60% (95% confidence interval: 40-91%). Given the good tolerability and promising results, we recommend clofarabine 60 mg/m(2) per day × 5 days as a phase II dose in combination with busulfan (12.8 mg per kg total dose) for further study as a myeloablative regimen for allogeneic SCT for high-risk acute leukemia.

Abstract
We investigated the administration of intravenous (i.v.) busulfan (Bu) combined with melphalan (Mel) in patients with advanced lymphoid malignancies undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation. Bu 130 mg/m(2) was infused daily for 4 days, either as a fixed dose per body surface area (BSA), or to target an average daily area under the curve of 5000 μmol-min, determined by a test dose of i.v. Bu at 32 mg/m(2) given 48 hours prior to the high-dose regimen, followed by a rest day, followed by 2 daily doses of Mel at 70 mg/m(2). Stem cells were infused the following day. Eighty patients had i.v. Bu delivered per test dose guidance. The median daily systemic Bu exposure was 4867 μmol-min. One hundred two patients (Hodgkin lymphoma n = 49, non-Hodgkin lymphoma n = 12, multiple myeloma = 41) with a median age of 44 years (range: 19-65 years) were treated. The 2-year overall survival and progression-free survival rates were 85% and 57%, respectively, for patients with Hodgkin lymphoma, 67% and 64%, respectively, for patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, and 82% and 42%, respectively, for patients with multiple myeloma. The regimen was very well tolerated with treatment-related mortality at 100 days, 1 year, and 2 years of 1%, 3%, and 3%, respectively. Intravenous Bu-Mel was well tolerated. Disease control wa encouraging, and should be explored in larger phase II studies.
