Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) remains the only potentially curative treatment for many hematologic malignancies (HM). We previously developed a two-step approach that separates the lymphoid and myeloid portions of the graft, allowing a consistent T cell dosing and sparing the stem cells from the effect of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (CY). The two-step approach demonstrated safety and efficacy in patients treated with myeloablative and reduced-intensity conditioning. Here, we extended our two-step platform to older and less fit patients and explored the effects of using a high dose of T cells on disease relapse and transplant outcomes. Thirty-four patients with HM were treated. Median age was 68 years old and included a minority population constituting 32%. Eighty-two percent had a hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index score ≥3. Ninety-one percent were haploidentical, and the rest were matched-related donor HSCT. Following administration of fludarabine and 2 Gy total body irradiation (TBI) (13 patients) or 4 Gy TBI (21 patients) conditioning regimen, a fixed dose of 2 × 108/kg CD3+ T cells was given, followed 2 days later by CY, then infusion of CD34-selected stem cells. Overall survival (OS) was 70% at 1 year and 48% at 3 years. The cumulative incidence (CI) of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse were 22% and 33% at 3 years. However, the CI of relapse was much lower for patients treated with 4 Gy TBI versus those treated with 2 Gy TBI (11% versus 54%, P = .045), while NRM was similar (23% versus 15%, P = .399). This contributed to a high OS of 64% in patients who received 4 Gy TBI-based conditioning at 3 years, with median OS not reached, although this was not statistically significant (P = .68). The median time to neutrophil and platelet recovery was 12 and 17 days, respectively. The CI of grade II acute graft-versus-host-disease (aGVHD) was 22% and 26% at 100 days and 6 months, respectively. The CI of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was 7.5% at 3 years. There was no grade III or IV aGVHD, no severe cGVHD, and no deaths attributable to GVHD. In conclusion, the two-step approach HSCT demonstrated a low disease relapse rate and high survival in patients treated with 4 Gy TBI-based conditioning, despite a generally older and more medically compromised patient population.

High CD34-positive cell dose in matched unrelated donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant is not associated with graft-versus-host disease or mortality. Transfusion 2024; 64:1068-1075. [PMID: 38693089 DOI: 10.1111/trf.17864] [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: 01/08/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 05/03/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND CD34+ stem cells serve as the primary graft source for allogeneic transplants, with a minimum of 2-4 × 106 cells/kg needed for engraftment. There are conflicting data on outcomes at high stem cell doses, with studies limited by few patients receiving doses far above the minimum target. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS In this retrospective, single-center study of patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent matched unrelated donor transplants, we assessed outcomes for engraftment, survival, relapse, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) for the highest CD34+ dose quintile (>13 × 106 cells/kg, n = 36) compared to the remaining patients (n = 139). Similar analysis was performed correlating T cell dose and outcomes. RESULTS There was no difference between the groups in neutrophil engraftment, with a trend toward faster platelet engraftment. There was no significant difference in mortality (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] = 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.85-1.22), relapse (aRR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.85-1.42), or overall survival by Kaplan-Meier analysis (p = .44). High CD34+ dose was not associated with higher incidence of acute GVHD (aRR = 0.99 grades II-IV, aRR = 1.18 grades III-IV) or chronic GVHD (aRR = 0.87 overall, RR = 1.21 severe). There was limited correlation between CD34+ and T cell dose (R2 = .073), and there was no significant difference in survival, relapse, or GVHD in the highest T cell dose quintile (n = 33) compared to the remaining quintiles (n = 132). DISCUSSION We found no difference in survival, relapse, or GVHD incidence or severity in patients receiving CD34+ doses above prior cutoffs reported in the literature. These data do not support the routine use of graft CD34+ dose reduction.

Graft Failure Incidence, Risk Factors, and Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Non-Myeloablative Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Using Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:588-596. [PMID: 38521411 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.03.018] [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: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 03/25/2024]
Abstract
Graft failure (GF) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) that results in significant morbidity and mortality. Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis has emerged as an effective regimen across the spectrum of donor-match settings, but few studies have investigated the characteristics of GF in the setting of PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis. The objective was to detail the incidence, clinical features, risk factors, and outcomes for patients with primary graft failure (PGF) and secondary graft failure (SGF). In this retrospective study at a single institution, 958 consecutive patients undergoing first nonmyeloablative (NMA) alloHCT with PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis were analyzed. PGF was defined as a failure to achieve an ANC ≥ 500 cells/m3 by day 30 of transplant in the absence of residual disease. SGF was defined as complete loss of donor chimerism after initial engraftment. The incidences of PGF and SGF were 3.8% (n = 37) and 1.8% (n = 17), respectively. Neither PGF nor SGF were associated with HLA disparity. In a multivariate analysis, risk factors for PGF in this cohort included age ≥ 65 (OR 2.4, 95% CI 1.2 to 4.8, P = .0120), an underlying diagnosis of MDS, MPN, or MDS/MPN overlap (OR 2.8, 95% CI 1.4 to 5.7, P = .0050), post-transplant viremia with HHV-6 (OR 2.9, 95% CI 1.5 to 5.7, P = .0030), and low CD34+ dose (OR 0.7, 95% CI 0.5 to 0.9, P = .0080). Patients with PGF had poor overall survival, driven primarily by a high rate of nonrelapse mortality (59% at 36 months). SGF was associated with use of a bone marrow graft source and a diagnosis of Hodgkin lymphoma. Patients with SGF had excellent clinical outcomes with only one of seventeen patients experiencing relapse and relapse-related mortality. The incidence of PGF and SGF in patients receiving NMA conditioning and PTCy is low and is not impacted by HLA disparities between donors and recipients. PGF is more common in recipients with age ≥ 65, a diagnosis of MDS, MPN, or MDS/MPN-overlap, post-transplant HHV-6 viremia, and low CD34+ cell dose. Low total nucleated cell dose is also a risk factor for PGF in patients receiving a bone marrow graft source. Patients who experience PGF have poor outcomes due to high rates of nonrelapse mortality, whereas patients who experience SGF have excellent long-term outcomes.

Transplant Cell Ther 2023; 29:638.e1-638.e8. [PMID: 37419326 PMCID: PMC10592389 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2023.07.003] [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: 03/28/2023] [Revised: 06/29/2023] [Accepted: 07/02/2023] [Indexed: 07/09/2023]
Abstract
Higher doses of infused nucleated cells (NCs) are associated with improved clinical outcomes in bone marrow transplantation (BMT) recipients. Most clinicians recommend infusing at least 2.0 × 108 NCs/kg. BMT clinicians request a target NC dose, but the harvested NC dose may be below the requested NC dose even before cell processing. We conducted this retrospective study to investigate the quality of bone marrow (BM) harvest and factors that influence infused NC doses at our institution. We also correlated infused NC doses with clinical outcomes. The study population included 347 BMT recipients (median age, 11 years; range, <1 to 75 years) at the University of Minnesota between 2009 and 2019. Underlying diagnoses mainly included 39% malignant and 61% nonmalignant diagnoses. Requested, harvested, and infused NC doses, as well as cell processing data, were obtained from the Cell Therapy Laboratory; clinical outcomes data were obtained from the University of Minnesota BMT Database. BM harvests were facilitated either by our institution (61%) or by the National Marrow Donor Program (39%). Associations of infused doses with baseline characteristics were assessed using the general Wilcoxon test/Pearson's correlation coefficient. The association of infused dose with neutrophil engraftment (absolute neutrophil count >500) by day 42, platelet engraftment (>20,000) by 6 months, acute graft-versus-host disease grade II-IV, and overall survival (OS) at 5 years were evaluated using regression and Kaplan-Meier curves. The median requested NC dose was 3.0 × 108/kg (range, 2 to 8 × 108/kg), and the median harvested and infused NC doses were 4.0 × 108/kg and 3.6 × 108/kg, respectively. Only 7% of donors had a harvested dose below the minimum requested dose. Moreover, the correlation between requested doses and harvested doses was adequate, with a harvested/requested dose ratio <.5 observed in only 5% of harvests. Additionally, the harvest volume and cell processing method were significantly correlated with the infused dose. Harvest volume exceeding the median of 948 mL was related to a significantly lower infused dose (P < .01). Moreover, hydroxyethyl starch (HES)/buffy coat processing (used to reduce RBCs with major ABO incompatibility) led to a significantly lower infused dose (P < .01). Donor age (median, 19 years; range, <1 to-70 years) and sex did not significantly influence the infused dose. Finally, the infused dose was significantly correlated with neutrophil and platelet engraftment (P < .05) but not with 5-year OS (P = .87) or aGVHD (P = .33). In our program's experience, BM harvesting is efficient and meets the requested minimum dose for 93% of recipients. Harvest volume and cell process play significant roles in determining the final infused dose. Minimizing harvest volume and cell processing could lead to increased infused dose and thus improved outcomes. Moreover, a higher infused dose leads to a better rate of neutrophil and platelet engraftment but not to improved OS, which may be linked to the sample size of our study.

Transpl Immunol 2023; 77:101779. [PMID: 36596428 DOI: 10.1016/j.trim.2022.101779] [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: 07/19/2022] [Revised: 12/25/2022] [Accepted: 12/28/2022] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We examined the association between the composition of the cell subsets present in allogeneic grafts (allografts) and the occurrence and severity of aGVHD in pediatric patients. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 80 consecutive pediatric patients undergoing allo-HSCT at our center. RESULTS Both univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the number of CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells in allografts were the two highest risk factors associated with II-IV aGVHD. Using receiver operating characteristic analysis, the cutoff levels of the allo-HSCT cell doses were used to divide the recipients into low-dose and high-dose groups. The 100-day cumulative incidence of II-IV aGVHD in the high-dose CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells group was significantly higher than that of the low-dose group (CD34+: 57% vs. 29%, p = 0.009; CD3+: 63% vs. 18%, p < 0.001). No other clinical factors or cell subsets correlated with aGVHD incidence. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis indicates that the CD34+ and CD3+ T-cell numbers in the allografts could be the risk factors for the development of severe aGVHD (level II-IV). Further studies should aim to optimize the critical number of CD34+ and CD3+ T-cells to reduce the risk of severe aGVHD occurrence in pediatric patients.

Effect of CD34 + Cell Dose on the Outcomes of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation with Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide. Transplant Cell Ther 2023; 29:181.e1-181.e10.

Abstract
The impact of infused CD34+ cell dose on outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) using standard graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis remains controversial. Information on this subject is scarce for alloHSCT using high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy). We aimed to assess the effect of CD34+ cell dose in peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) grafts on the outcome of alloHSCT using PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis. To do so, we conducted a single-center retrospective analysis of 221 consecutive adult patients who underwent PTCy alloHSCT from HLA-matched sibling donors (MSDs; n = 22), HLA-matched unrelated donors (MUDs; n = 83), mismatched unrelated donors (MMUDs; n = 73), and haploidentical donors (n = 43). Based on the binary partitioning method, 5 × 106/kg was used as the optimal cutoff for CD34+ cell dose. According to our institutional protocol, the maximum CD34+ cell dose was capped at 8 × 106/kg. The study cohort was divided into 2 groups based on CD34+ cell dose: high dose (>5 to 8 × 106/kg) and low dose (≤5 × 106/kg). Patients receiving high-dose CD34+-containing grafts had significantly shorter median times to neutrophil engraftment and platelet engraftment compared to those who received low-dose CD34+ (19 days versus 21 days [P = .002] and 16 days versus 22 days [P = .04], respectively). There were no differences between the high-dose and low-dose groups in the cumulative incidence of day +100 acute GVHD (grade II-IV: 25% versus 23% [P = .7]; grade III-IV: 5% versus 4% [P = .4], respectively) or 2-year chronic GVHD (moderate/severe GVHD: 9% versus 6%; P = .5). There was no impact of CD34+ cell dose on survival outcomes with the use of MSDs, MUDs, or MMUDs. Recipients of haploidentical alloHSCT using low-dose CD34+ cells had significantly worse overall survival (hazard ratio [HR], 6.01; P = .004) and relapse-free survival (HR, 4.57; P = .004). In recipients of PBSC PTCy alloHSCT, infused CD34+ cell doses >5 to 8 × 106/kg were associated with faster neutrophil and platelet engraftment, independent of donor type. Our study suggests an impact of CD34+ cell dose on survival outcomes only with haploidentical donors, for whom the administration of a CD34+ cell dose ≤5 × 106/kg significantly decreased survival outcomes.

Effects of CD34 + cell dose on haematopoietic recovery in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia patients with positive pretransplant measurable residual disease. Int J Lab Hematol 2023; 45:72-81. [PMID: 36193870 DOI: 10.1111/ijlh.13974] [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: 04/19/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION A higher CD34+ cell dose in allografts is associated with faster haematopoietic recovery after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Leukaemia stem cells impair normal bone marrow (BM) niches and induce BM failure during leukemogenesis. However, whether measurable residual disease (MRD), known as the persistence of low-level leukaemic cells, could influence the effects of CD34+ cell dose on haematopoietic recovery after transplantation in acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL) patients is unknown. METHODS A total of 975 ALL patients were enrolled and classified into pre-HSCT MRD-positive and MRD-negative subgroups. Cox proportional hazard regression models were built for time-to-event outcomes. Multivariate analysis was performed to determine independent influencing factors from the univariate analysis. RESULTS An appropriate CD34+ cell dose was positively associated with faster haematopoietic recovery in the total ALL population. More importantly, in pre-HSCT MRD-positive ALL patients, a higher CD34+ cell dose (≥2.76 × 106 /kg) was related to faster neutrophil (HR 1.330, 95% CI 1.045-1.692, p = 0.021) and platelet engraftment (HR 1.808, 95% CI 1.412-2.316, p < 0.001) in multivariate analysis. CD34+ cell dose was a crucial factor associated with either engraftment or transplant outcomes, although we did not demonstrate direct correlations of CD34+ cell dose with relapse, TRM, LFS or OS after allo-HSCT. CONCLUSION Our results indicated that no additional CD34+ stem and progenitor cell harvests were needed to ensure successful haematopoietic recovery in pre-HSCT MRD-positive patients compared to pre-HSCT MRD-negative patients.

Comparison of Outcomes of Haploidentical Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation Supported by Third-Party Cord Blood Versus Human Leukocyte Antigen-Matched Sibling Peripheral Blood Stem Cell Transplantation in Hematologic Malignancy Patients. Front Oncol 2022; 12:922120. [PMID: 35912178 PMCID: PMC9331161 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.922120] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 06/13/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Recent studies have shown that haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation supported by third-party cord blood (haplo-cord-HSCT) results in rapid hematopoietic recovery, low incidences of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and relapse of hematologic malignancies. However, few reports on haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation supported by third-party cord blood (haplo-cord-PBSCT) have been published. To evaluate the outcomes of patients who underwent haplo-cord-PBSCT or human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donor peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (MSD-PBSCT), we retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent haplo-cord-PBSCT (n = 93) or MSD-PBSCT (n = 72) in our hospital from March 2017 to December 2020. In the haplo-cord-PBSCT and MSD-PBSCT groups, the median time for neutrophil and platelet engraftment was 13 vs. 12 days (p = 0.07) and 16 vs. 13 days (p = 0.06), respectively. The 30-day cumulative incidences of neutrophil engraftment were 100.0% and 98.6% (p = 0.12). The 100-day cumulative incidences of platelet engraftment were 96.8% and 98.6% (p = 0.01). The 100-day cumulative incidences of grade II–IV and grade III–IV acute GVHD were 29.1% vs. 23.6% (p = 0.42) and 9.7% vs. 4.2% (p = 0.18). The cumulative incidences of total and moderate/severe chronic GVHD at 1 year were 26.5% vs. 17.4% and 8.1% vs. 4.5%, respectively, and at 3 years were 34.7% vs. 34.3% (p = 0.60) and 13.6% vs. 10.6% (p = 0.49), respectively. The cumulative incidences of relapse at 1 year were 9.3% and 7.2% and at 3 years were 17.0% and 17.0% (p = 0.98). Non-relapse mortality (NRM) at 1 year was 14.6% and 8.6% and at 3 years was 17.4% and 8.6% (p = 0.13) in two groups. The probabilities of overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and GVHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) at 1 year were 81.7% vs. 88.6%, 76.1% vs. 84.2%, and 71.7% vs. 79.7%, respectively, and at 3 years were 78.7% vs. 79.0%, 65.6% vs. 74.4%, and 55.5% vs. 63.6%, respectively, in the corresponding group, p > 0.05. In conclusion, for patients with acute myeloid leukemia/myelodysplastic syndrome (AML/MDS) and acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL), haplo-cord-PBSCT results in similar outcomes compared with MSD-PBSCT, and it may be a valid alternative transplantation method.

Abstract
The optimal CD34 + cell dose in the setting of RIC allo-HCT for myelofibrosis (MF) remains unknown. We retrospectively analyzed 657 patients with primary or secondary MF transplanted with use of peripheral blood (PB) stem cells after fludarabine/melphalan or fludarabine/busulfan RIC regimen. Median patient age was 58 (range, 22-76) years. Donors were HLA-identical sibling (MSD) or unrelated (UD). Median follow-up was 46 (2-194) months. Patients transplanted with higher doses of CD34 + cells (>7.0 × 106/kg), had an increased chance of achievement of both neutrophil (hazard ratio (HR), 1.46; P < 0.001) and platelet engraftment (HR, 1.43; P < 0.001). In a model with interaction, for patients transplanted from a MSD, higher CD34 + dose was associated with improved overall survival (HR, 0.63; P = 0.04) and relapse-free survival (HR, 0.61; P = 0.02), lower risk of non-relapse mortality (HR, 0.57; P = 0.04) and higher rate of platelet engraftment. The combined effect of higher cell dose and UD was apparent only for higher neutrophil and platelet recovery rate. We did not document any detrimental effect of high CD34 + dose on transplant outcomes. More bulky splenomegaly was an adverse factor for survival, engraftment and NRM. Our analysis suggests a potential benefit for MF patients undergoing RIC PB-allo-HCT receiving more than 7.0 × 106/kg CD34 + cells.

Association of CD34 Cell Dose with 5-Year Overall Survival after Peripheral Blood Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Adults with Hematologic Malignancies. Transplant Cell Ther 2021; 28:88-95. [PMID: 34774817 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2021.11.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2021] [Revised: 10/14/2021] [Accepted: 11/07/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
Higher CD34 cell dose is associated with improved engraftment after peripheral blood allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) but also may increase the risk of long-term complications, such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Prior studies examining the relationship between CD34 cell dose and long-term survival outcomes have yielded conflicting results. In this study, we sought to clarify the prognostic impact of CD34 cell dose by examining a large contemporary cohort of patients undergoing alloHCT with a matched sibling peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donor. We retrospectively examined the impact of CD34 cell dose on overall survival (OS), neutrophil engraftment, platelet engraftment, treatment-related mortality, relapse, acute GVHD grade II-IV and III-IV, and chronic GVHD in 377 consecutive patients undergoing alloHCT with a PBSC graft source from a matched sibling donor at the University of Minnesota between 2002 and 2015. The patients were classified into 3 groups based on the tertile (T) of CD34 cell dose received: T1, <5 × 106 cells/kg; T2, 5 to 7.5 × 106 cells/kg; and T3, ≥7.5 × 106 cells/kg. Multivariable analysis demonstrated that high CD34 cell dose was associated with superior 5-year OS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.57; P = .01) and more rapid platelet engraftment (HR, 1.70; P < .01). Higher CD34 cell dose also was associated with improved absolute neutrophil count engraftment (T2: HR, 1.54; T3: HR, 1.52; P < .01). There was no association between CD34 cell dose and TRM or relapse at 5 years. Although higher CD34 cell dose was not associated with acute GVHD grade II-IV, it was associated with chronic GVHD (T2: HR, 1.68; T3: HR, 1.50; P = .04). Our data indicate that higher CD34 cell dose (>7.5 × 106/kg) is associated with superior OS at 5 years and improved engraftment but carries an increased risk of chronic GVHD. These data support a target CD34 cell dose goal of 7.5 × 106/kg for sibling PBSC graft donors.

Cryopreservation of unrelated donor hematopoietic stem cells: the right answer for transplantations during the COVID-19 pandemic? Bone Marrow Transplant 2021; 56:2489-2496. [PMID: 34127808 PMCID: PMC8201455 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-021-01367-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2020] [Revised: 05/16/2021] [Accepted: 05/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/02/2022]
Abstract
Cryopreservation was recommended to ensure continuity of unrelated donor (UD) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) during COVID-19 pandemic. However, its impact on clinical outcomes and feasibility was not well known. We compared 32 patients who underwent UD HSCT using cryopreserved peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) during the COVID-19 pandemic with 32 patients who underwent UD HSCT using fresh PBSC in the previous period. Median neutrophil engraftment was 17.5 and 17.0 days with cryopreserved and fresh grafts, respectively. Non-significant delays were found in platelet recovery days (25.5 versus 19.0; P = 0.192) and full donor chimerism days (35.0 and 31.5; P = 0.872) using cryopreserved PBSC. The rate of acute graft-versus-host disease at 100 days was 41% (95% CI [21-55%]) in cryopreserved group versus 31% (95% CI [13-46%]) in fresh group (P = 0.380). One-hundred days progression-relapse free survival and overall survival did not differ significantly. During COVID-19 pandemic, six frozen UD donations were not transfused and logistical and clinical issues regarding cryopreservation procedure, packaging, and transporting appeared. In summary, UD HSCT with cryopreserved PBSC was safe during this challenging time. More efforts are needed to ensure that all frozen grafts are transplanted and cryopreservation requirements are harmonized.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoeitic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is the only curative treatment for myelofibrosis (MF). We evaluate the impact of various factors on survival outcomes post-transplant in MF. Data of 89 consecutive MF patients (primary 47%) who underwent allo-HCT between 2005 and 2018 was evaluated. Fifty-four percent patients had received JAK1/2 inhibitors (JAKi) pre-HCT. The median CD34 count was 7.1x106 cells/kg. Graft failure was seen in 10% of the patients. Grade 3-4 acute GVHD (aGVHD) and moderate/severe chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) occurred in 24% and 40% patients, respectively. Two-year overall survival (OS) and relapse free survival (RFS) were 51% and 43%, respectively. Cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) at 2 years were 11% and 46%, respectively. Higher CD34 cell dose (≤5 × 106 cells/kg vs 5-9 or ≥9 × 106 cells/kg) and lower pre-HCT ferritin (</=1000 ng/ml) were associated with better OS, RFS and lower NRM. Grade 3-4 aGVHD was associated with higher NRM. Use of pre-transplant JAKi was associated with lower incidence of grade 3-4 aGVHD. In summary, higher CD34 cell dose is associated with better allo-HCT outcomes in MF and pre-HCT JAKi use is associated with reduced risk of severe aGVHD. These two modifiable parameters should be considered during allo-HCT for MF.

CD34+ cell dose effects on clinical outcomes after T-cell replete haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia using peripheral blood stem cells. A study from the acute leukemia working Party of the European Society for blood and marrow transplantation (EBMT). Am J Hematol 2020; 95:892-899.

Abstract
Previous observations have reported controversial conclusions regarding cell dose and survival endpoints after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We conducted a retrospective analysis on 414 adult patients (median age 54 years, range, 18-74 years) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first and second complete remission. They received a T-cell replete allogeneic HSCT from haploidentical donors, using peripheral blood stem cells, between 2006-2018. Median number of infused CD34+ was 6.58 × 106 /kg (range, 2.2-31.2 × 106 /kg). Graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was post-transplant cyclophosphamide in 293 patients and anti-lymphocyte serum in 121 patients. Conditioning was myeloablative in 179 patients and reduced-intensity in 235 patients. After a median follow-up of 23.3 months (range, 12.1-41.8 months), 2-year overall survival (OS) was 64.5% (95% CI 59.3%-69.7%) with leukemia-free survival (LFS) of 57.3% (95% CI 51.8%-62.7%) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) of 23.3% (95% CI 19%-27.7%). Grades III-IV acute GVHD day+100 incidence was 14.6% while extensive chronic GVHD was 14.4% at 2-years. Thirteen (3.2%) patients experienced graft failure. We found the optimal CD34+/kg threshold defining high (n = 334) vs low cell dose (n = 80) at 4.96 × 106 . Recipients of >4.96 × 106 /kg CD34+ cells experienced less NRM (Hazard ratio [HR] 0.48; 95% CI 0.30-0.76) and prolonged LFS (HR 0.63; 95% CI 0.43-0.91) and OS (HR 0.60; 95% CI 0.40-0.88) compared to those in the lower cell dose cohort. Larger cohort studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Analysis of a large single institution cohort of related donors fails to detect a relation between SDF1/CXCR4 or VCAM/VLA4 genetic polymorphisms and the level of hematopoietic progenitor cell mobilization in response to G-CSF. PLoS One 2020; 15:e0228878. [PMID: 32134938 PMCID: PMC7058310 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0228878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/09/2019] [Accepted: 01/24/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
We studied a cohort of 367 healthy related donors who volunteered to donate their hematopoietic stem cells for allogeneic transplantation. All donors were homogeneously cared for at a single institution, and received rhG-CSF as a mobilization treatment prior to undergoing apheresis. Peripheral blood CD34+ cell counts were used as the main surrogate marker for rhG-CSF induced mobilization. We searched whether inter-individual variations in known genetic polymorphisms located in genes whose products are functionally important for mobilization, could affect the extent of CD34+ mobilization, either individually or in combination. We found little or no influence of individual SNPs or haplotypes for the SDF1, CXCR4, VCAM and VLA4 genes, whether using CD34+ cell counts as a continuous or a categorical variable. Simple clinical characteristics describing donors such as body mass index, age and possibly sex are more potent predictors of stem cell mobilization. The size of our cohort remains relatively small for genetic analyses, however compares favorably with cohorts analyzed in previously published reports suggesting associations of genetic traits to response to rhG-CSF; notwithstanding this limitation, our data do not support the use of genetic analyses when the choice exists of several potential donors for a given patient.

Abstract
The effect of CD34+ cell dose in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) on overall survival (OS) and incidence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) has not been established and few studies have been performed. Our single center analysis included 189 patients with hematological malignancies who received peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) grafts from sibling donors. Myeloablative conditioning was used in 88 cases and 101 received reduced intensity conditioning. The median CD34+ cell dose was 5.6 × 106/kg (0.6–17.0). In the multivariate analysis, a CD34 cell dose of 6–7 × 106/kg was associated with better OS and lower transplant-related mortality (TRM), while a dose of <5 × 106/kg led to increased relapse and reduced chronic GVHD (cGVHD). A high CD34 cell-dose (>6.5 × 106/kg) correlated with less acute GVHD (aGVHD) II–IV. We conclude that the CD34 cell dose has an impact on the outcome of HSCT from sibling donor PBSCs.

Abstract
Data on whether the T cell dose of allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) products influences transplantation outcomes are conflicting. Using the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research database, we identified 2736 adult patients who underwent first allogeneic PBSC transplantation for acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome between 2008 and 2014 using an HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD) or an 8/8-matched unrelated donor (MUD). We excluded ex vivo and in vivo T cell-depleted transplantations. Correlative analysis was performed between CD3+ T cell dose and the risk of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD), relapse, nonrelapse mortality (NRM), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS). Using maximum likelihood estimation, we identified CD3+ T cell dose cutoff that separated the risk of acute GVHD (aGVHD) grade II-IV in both the MSD and MUD groups. A CD3+ T cell dose cutoff of 14 × 107 cells/kg identified MSD/low CD3+ (n = 223) and MSD/high CD3+ (n = 1214), and a dose of 15 × 107 cells/kg identified MUD/low CD3+ (n = 197) and MUD/high CD3+ (n = 1102). On univariate analysis, the MSD/high CD3+ group had a higher cumulative incidence of day +100 aGVHD grade II-IV compared with the MSD/low CD3+ group (33% versus 25%; P = .009). There were no differences between the 2 groups in engraftment rate, risk of aGVHD grade III-IV or chronic GVHD (cGVHD), NRM, relapse, DFS, or OS. The MUD/high CD3+ group had a higher cumulative incidence of day +100 aGVHD grade II-IV compared with the MUD/low CD3+ group (49% versus 41%; P = .04). There were no differences between the 2 groups in engraftment rate, risk of severe aGVHD or cGVHD, NRM, relapse, DFS, or OS. Multivariate analysis of the MSD and MUD groups failed to show an association between CD3+ T cell dose and the risk of either aGVHD grade II-IV (P = .10 and .07, respectively) or cGVHD (P = .80 and .30, respectively). Subanalysis of CD4+ T cells, CD8+ T cells, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio failed to identify cutoff values predictive of transplantation outcomes; however, using the log-rank test, the sample size was suboptimal for identifying a difference at this cutoff cell dose. In this registry study, the CD3+ T cell dose of PBSC products did not influence the risk of aGVHD or cGVHD or other transplantation outcomes when using an MSD or an 8/8-matched MUD. Subset analyses of CD4+ and CD8+ T cell doses were not possible given our small sample size.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation involves consideration of both donor and recipient characteristics to guide the selection of a suitable graft. Sufficient high-resolution donor-recipient HLA match is of primary importance in transplantation with adult unrelated donors, using conventional graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis. In cord blood transplantation, optimal unit selection requires consideration of unit quality, cell dose and HLA-match. In this summary, the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) and the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research, jointly with the NMDP Histocompatibility Advisory Group, provide evidence-based guidelines for optimal selection of unrelated donors and cord blood units.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was the analysis of transplant outcomes and survival in children treated with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) for non-malignant disorders, with a focus on risk factor analysis of transplant-related mortality (TRM). MATERIAL AND METHODS The treatment outcome was analyzed retrospectively in 10 consecutive years in 4 pediatric transplant centers in Poland. To compare the outcomes, patient data were analyzed according to the diagnosis, age at transplant, donor type, stem cell source, conditioning regimens, transplanted CD34+ cells dose, and pediatric TRM score. RESULTS From 183 analyzed patients, 27 (14.8%) died, all of them due to transplant-related complications. TRM occurred more frequently in matched unrelated donor (MUD) transplant recipients vs. matched sibling donor (MSD) transplant recipients (p=0.02); in peripheral blood (PB) recipients vs. bone marrow (BM) recipients (p=0.004); and in patients receiving >5×10⁶/kg CD34+ cells (p<0.0001). OS differed significantly according to underlying disease comparing to other diagnoses. Lower survival was found in patients transplanted from MUD (p=0.02). OS was higher in patients receiving BM (p=0.001) and in those receiving ≤5×10⁶/kg CD34+ cells (p<0.001). Multivariate analysis showed lower probability of TRM in BM recipients (p=0.04). The probability of TRM was higher in SCID patients (p=0.02) and in patients receiving >5×10⁶/kg CD34+ cells (p=0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Underlying disease, stem cell source, and CD34+ dose higher than 5×10⁶/kg were the most important risk factors for TRM, and they all affected OS.

Abstract
Donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) is an effective method to establish full donor chimerism or to prevent and treat relapse after allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Usually, DLIs are collected from naïve donors as steady-state lymphocytes. When donor lymphocytes are collected during stem cell apheresis, donors are pre-treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). However, the impact of G-CSF stimulation and the resulting composition of DLIs on beneficial anti-leukaemic responses and survival remain elusive. Therefore, we performed a retrospective analysis to evaluate the role of G-CSF-DLIs: 44 patients received either steady-state DLIs or G-CSF-DLIs to prevent and treat relapse or establish full donor chimerism after allo-HCT. The G-CSF-DLI patient cohort showed an improved conversion to full donor chimerism and a lower cumulative incidence of relapse or disease progression without a significantly increased cumulative incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). CD34+ cells, monocytic myeloid-derived suppressor cells and monocytes as well as donor age and the subsequent occurrence of chronic GVHD were identified as risk factors that significantly improve overall survival after DLI administration. In conclusion, our data suggest that administration of G-CSF-DLIs results in graft-versus-leukaemia effects without exacerbating GVHD, therefore, improving survival after DLIs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and relapse remain majobstacles ftreatment success in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the present study, we evaluated the immune cell profile of the graft to outcome after HSCT. STUDY DESIGN AND METHOD Flow cytometry data of graft cell subsets [CD34+ , CD3+ , CD19+ , CD4+ , CD8+ , CD3-CD56+ CD16+ , CD4+ CD127low CD25high ] from G-CSF primed peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donors was collected retrospectively from 299 patients with hematological malignancies undergoing HSCT between 2006 and 2013. The association to overall survival, transplant-related mortality (TRM), GVHD and probability of relapse was analyzed. Patients outcome from HLA-identical sibling (Sib) (n = 97) and unrelated donors (URD) (n = 202) were analyzed separately as all URD patients received anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG). RESULTS Five-year overall survival was similar in the two cohorts (68% (Sib) vs 65% (URD)). The relapse incidence was significantly lower in the Sib cohort (24% vs 35%, P = 0.04). Multivariate analysis in the URD group revealed an association between a higher CD8+ dose and less relapse (HR, 0.94; 95%CI, 0.90-0.98; P = 0.006) as well as an association between higher CD34+ dose and both higher TRM (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.02-1.20; P = 0.02) and relapse (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.01-1.17; P = 0.025). The Sib analysis showed an association between a higher graft CD19+ dose and more severe acute GVHD (HR, 1,09; 95%CI, 1.03-1.15; P = 0.003) and TRM (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.01-1.17; P = 0.036). In addition, a higher CD4+ graft content was associated to an increased risk for chronic GVHD (HR, 1.02; 95%CI 1.00-1.04; P = 0.06). CONCLUSION These data indicate an importance of PBSC dongraft composition in patients with a hematological malignancy.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell graft cellular composition has been generally accepted to impact outcomes. Recent studies question this hypothesis. We conducted a single-center retrospective study of sixty-one pediatric BMT recipients for malignant (68%) and nonmalignant diseases (32%) examining effects of graft composition on engraftment, acute GVHD, chronic GVHD, and survival at day 100 and 1 year. Grafts contained a median of 3.63 x 08 TNC/kg (range: 0.031-10.31 x 108 TNC/kg) and 4.09 x 106 CD34+ /kg (range: 0.76-24.15 x 106 CD34+ /kg) with median neutrophil and platelet engraftment times of 17 and 29 days, respectively. A univariate analysis showed a trend for increasing TNC and increasing time to neutrophil engraftment HR: 0.875; CI: 0.075-1.001). Increasing CD34+ counts shortened time to platelet engraftment (HR: 1.085; CI: 1.015-1.161). No significant relationship was found between TNC, CD34+ , or CD3+ and acute or chronic GVHD. TNC or CD34+ did not affect day 100, 1-year survival, or 2-year survival. Increasing CD3+ counts demonstrated a negative trend on day 100 survival (HR: 1.108; CI: 1.001-1.036) but not 1-year survival or 2-year survival. These results add additional data questioning the effect of graft composition on outcomes in pediatric BMT patients with important ramifications for the management of donors.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) provides the best chance for cure for many patients with malignant and nonmalignant hematologic disorders. Recent advances in selecting candidates and determining risk, procedure safety, utilization in older patients, use of alternative donors, and new or novel application of anti-cancer, immunosuppressive and antimicrobial agents have improved outcomes and expanded the role of HCT in hematologic disorders. Relapse remains the predominant cause of failure but enlightened use of new targeted and immunotherapeutic agents in combination with HCT promises to reduce relapse and further improve HCT outcomes.

Abstract
Transplants using peripheral blood hemopoietic stem/progenitor (PBHS) cells are widely performed for the treatment of patients with hematologic disorders in routine practice and clinical trials. Although the process from mobilization to infusion of PBHS cells has been mostly established, optimal conditions for each process remain undetermined. Adverse reactions caused by PBHS cell infusions have not been systematically recorded. In transplants using PBHS cells, a number of problems still exist. In this section, the current status of and future perspectives regarding PBHS cells are described.

Abstract
Haplo-identical transplants (Haplo-Tx) are an important alternative for patients with hematological malignancies who lack a HLA-identical donor. Seventy-one T-replete Haplo-Tx were performed in 70 high-risk patients at our center; 22/70 (31%) patients with refractory/relapsed leukemia received sequential salvage therapy (SeqTh) with high-dose chemotherapy followed by Haplo-Tx during the chemotherapy-induced neutropenia. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (days + 3 and + 4) with tacrolimus and mycophenolic acid. After a median follow-up of 29.2 months, 3-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were 43.8 and 40.2%, while 3-year cumulative incidences (CIs) of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse (RI) were 27 and 33%. Day 100 and day 400 CI of grade III-IV acute and moderate-severe chronic GVHD were 11 and 15%. Three-year RI was significantly lower in patients in complete remission (CR) versus those not in CR at the time of transplant (21.5 vs. 48%, p = 0.009) and in patients who received PBSC as compared to BM (22 vs. 45%, p = 0.009). In patients treated with SeqTh, 3-year OS was 19%, while 3-year RI and NRM were 52 and 28% at a median follow-up of 50 months. Overall, Haplo-Tx was feasible in heavily pretreated high-risk patients without a suitable HLA-identical donor.

Abstract
This study was conducted to characterize and compare peripheral blood stem cell grafts from healthy donors who underwent granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilization and subsequently received 1 dose of plerixafor after insufficient stem cell yields were achieved at the first apheresis. Aliquots from 35 donors were collected from the first apheresis after mobilization with G-CSF alone and from the second apheresis after additional plerixafor administration. Samples were freshly analyzed for cellular subsets by 8-color flow cytometry. Leukapheresis samples mobilized with additional plerixafor showed a significant increase of total nucleated cells, including B cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, and CD34+ hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Absolute numbers of plasmacytoid dendritic cells were also significantly increased, whereas no changes were detected for myeloid dendritic cells. Furthermore, absolute numbers of regulatory T cells increased, with naive CD45RA+ regulatory T cells showing the highest rise. Finally, strikingly higher numbers of myeloid-derived suppressor cells were detected in the plerixafor and G-CSF-mobilized graft. The mobilization of peripheral stem cells in healthy donors with G-CSF and plerixafor led to a significant difference in cellular graft composition compared with G-CSF alone. The clinical impact of the different cell composition for the graft recipient warrants further clinical investigation.

Abstract
The effects of graft or donor characteristics in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) are largely unknown. In this multicenter retrospective study we analyzed the correlations between graft cell composition (CD34+, CD3+) and donor features on transplant outcomes in 234 patients who underwent HCT between 2010 and 2016. On multivariate analysis, the use of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) was associated with an increased incidence of grade 2-4 acute GVHD [HR 1.94, 95% confidence Interval (CI) = 1.01-3.98, p = 0.05]. An elevated CD3+ graft content was associated with an increased incidence of all-grade chronic GVHD [HR 1.36 (95% CI = 1.06-1.74), p = 0.01]. This effect was confirmed only for the PBSC graft group. A higher CD34+ graft content had a protective role on non-relapse mortality [HR 0.78 (95% CI = 0.62-0.96), p = 0.02] but this was confirmed only for the bone marrow (BM)-derived graft cohort. Donor characteristics did not influence any outcomes. GVHD prophylaxis should be modulated accordingly to CD3+ graft content, especially when a PBSC graft is used. These results need further validation in prospective trials.

Abstract
Inconsistent results have been reported regarding the influence of graft composition on the incidence of graft versus host disease (GVHD), disease control and survival after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT). These discrepancies may be at least in part explained by the differences in disease categories, disease status at transplant, donor type and conditioning. The current retrospective EBMT registry study aimed to analyze the impact of CD3+ and CD34+ cells dose on the outcome of RIC allo-PBSCT in patients with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) in first complete remission, allografted from HLA-matched unrelated donors (10 of 10 match). We included 203 adults. In univariate analysis, patients transplanted with the highest CD3+ and CD34+ doses (above the third quartile cut-off point values, >347 x 10^6/kg and >8.25 x 10^6 /kg, respectively) had an increased incidence of grade III-IV acute (a) GVHD (20% vs. 6%, P = .003 and 18% vs. 7%, P = .02, respectively). There was no association between cellular composition of grafts and transplant-related mortality, AML relapse, incidence of chronic GVHD and survival. Neither engraftment itself nor the kinetics of engraftment were affected by the cell dose. In multivariate analysis, CD3+ and CD34+ doses were the only adverse predicting factors for grade III-IV aGVHD (HR = 3.6; 95%CI: 1.45-9.96, P = .006 and 2.65 (1.07-6.57), P = .04, respectively). These results suggest that careful assessing the CD3+ and CD34+ graft content and tailoring the cell dose infused may help in reducing severe acute GVHD risk without negative impact on the other transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
Although the CD34+ cell dose in allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) is considered to be associated with transplantation outcomes, a lower acceptable threshold has not been defined. We retrospectively analyzed 2919 adult patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent related PBSCT in Japan between 2001 and 2014. According to the number of CD34+ cells in the graft, we categorized 2494 patients in the standard group (2 to 5 × 106 cells/kg), 377 patient in the low group (1 to 2 × 106 cells/kg), and 48 patients in the very low group (<1 × 106 cells/kg). Compared with the standard group, the low and very low groups showed delayed neutrophil recovery (93.8%, 89.5%, and 78.3%, respectively at day +28; P < .001) and platelet recovery (69.3%, 53.0%, and 45.5%, respectively at day +28; P < .001). The 2-year overall survival (OS) in the 3 groups was 45.5%, 45.3%, and 29.8%, respectively, with inferior survival in the very low group. However, a higher percentage of high-risk patients may account for the inferior survival in the very low group, and no significant difference in OS was found in a multivariate analysis. There were no differences in relapse, nonrelapse mortality, or the development of graft-versus-host disease among the 3 groups. In conclusion, allogeneic PBSCT with low CD34+ cell doses of 1 to 2 × 106 cells/kg gives acceptable results, whereas further investigations are needed to evaluate the effects of lower doses of <1 × 106 cells/kg owing to the smaller number and the higher percentage of patients with adverse prognostic factors in this cohort.

Abstract
Little is known about the characteristics that make patients with acute leukemia suitable for undergoing salvage therapy by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Here, we analyzed the clinical outcomes of 223 patients with acute leukemia who underwent allo-HSCT while not in complete remission (CR). The primary end points were overall survival (OS) and CR rate. CR was achieved in 79.8% of patients after allo-HSCT. Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was significantly associated with CR (P = 0.045). During a median follow-up of 30.1 months, the median OS was 6.1 months. OS was significantly longer in patients with good or standard risk cytogenetic characteristics than in those with poor risk cytogenetic characteristics (P = 0.029, P = 0.030, respectively). Patients who received allo-HSCT from a matched sibling donor had better survival than those with unrelated donors (P = 0.015). Primary chemorefractoriness was not associated with poor survival (P = 0.071). The number of chemotherapies before allo-HSCT was significantly correlated with outcome (P = 0.006). Chronic GVHD was a strong predictor of a longer OS (P = 0.025). In conclusion, survival of patients with primary chemorefractory acute leukemia is not lower when treated upfront with allo-HSCT. Hence, allo-HSCT should be actively considered in such patients. Acute and chronic GVHD is associated with better outcomes patients with acute leukemia who have undergone allo-HSCT and not achieved CR.

Abstract
Mobilized peripheral blood is the most common graft source for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation following reduced-intensity conditioning. In assessing the effect of donor cell dose and graft composition on major transplant outcomes in the reduced-intensity setting, prior studies focused primarily on CD34(+)cell dose and reported conflicting results, especially in relation to survival end-points. While the impact of total nucleated cell dose has been less frequently evaluated, available studies suggest higher total nucleated cell dose is associated with improved survival outcomes in the reduced-intensity setting. In order to further explore the relationship between CD34(+)cell dose and total nucleated cell dose on reduced-intensity transplant outcomes, we analyzed the effect of donor graft dose and composition on outcomes of 705 patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent reduced-intensity peripheral blood stem cell transplantation at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute from 2000 to 2010. By multivariable analysis we found that higher total nucleated cell dose (top quartile; ≥10.8 × 10(10)cells) was associated with improved overall survival [HR 0.69 (0.54-0.88),P=0.0028] and progression-free survival [HR 0.68 (0.54-0.85),P=0.0006]. Higher total nucleated cell dose was independently associated with decreased relapse [HR 0.66 (0.51-0.85),P=0.0012] and increased incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease [HR 1.4 (1.12-1.77),P=0.0032]. In contrast, higher doses of CD34(+)cells (top quartile; ≥10.9 × 10(6)/kg) had no significant effect on graft-versus-host disease or survival outcomes. These data suggest total nucleated cell dose is a more relevant prognostic variable for reduced-intensity transplant outcomes than the more commonly studied CD34(+)cell dose.

Abstract
In haploidentical (haplo)-cord blood (CB) transplantations, early haplo donor engraftment serves as a myeloid bridge to sustainable CB engraftment and is associated with early neutrophil recovery. The conditioning regimens as published for haplo-cord protocols usually contain serotherapy, such as rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG) (Thymoglobulin, Genzyme, Cambridge, MA). However, reducing or omitting serotherapy is an important strategy to improve early immune reconstitution after transplantation. The need for serotherapy in successful haplo-cord transplantation, defined as having a haplo-derived myeloid bridge to CB engraftment, has not been investigated before. Two consecutive cohorts of patients underwent transplantation with haplo-CB. The first group underwent transplantation with haplo-CB for active infection and/or an underlying condition with expected difficult engraftment without a conventional donor available. They received a single unit (s) CB and haplo donor cells (CD34(+) selected, 5 × 10(6) CD34(+)/kg). The second cohort included patients with poor-risk malignancies, not eligible for other treatment protocols. They received a sCB and haplo donor cells (CD19/αβTCR-depleted; 5 × 10(6) CD34(+)/kg). Retrospectively in both cohorts, active ATG (Thymoglobulin) levels were measured and post-hematopoietic cell transplantation area under the curve (AUC) was calculated. The influence of ATG exposure for having a successful haplo-myeloid bridge (early haplo donor engraftment before CB engraftment and no secondary neutropenia) and transplantation-related mortality (TRM) were analyzed as primary endpoints. Twenty patients were included (16 in the first cohort and 4 in the second cohort). In 58% of evaluable patients, there was no successful haplo-derived myeloid bridge to CB engraftment, for which a low post-transplantation ATG exposure appeared to be a predictor (P <.001). TRM in the unsuccessful haplo-bridge group was 70% ± 16% versus 12% ± 12% in the successful haplo-bridge group (P = .012). In conclusion, sufficient in vivo T depletion with ATG is required for a successful haplo-myeloid bridge to CB engraftment.

Abstract
AML is currently the most common indication for reduced-intensity conditioned (RIC) allo-SCT. Reduced-intensity regimens allow a potent GVL response to occur with minimized treatment-related toxicity in patients of older age or with comorbidities that preclude the use of myeloablative conditioning. Whether RIC SCT is appropriate for younger and more standard risk patients is not well defined and the field is changing rapidly; a prospective randomized trial of myeloablative vs RIC (BMT-CTN 0901) was recently closed when early results indicated better outcomes for myeloablative regimens. However, detailed results are not available, and all patients in that study were eligible for myeloablative conditioning. RIC transplants will likely remain the standard of care as many patients with AML are not eligible for myeloablative conditioning. Recent publication of mature results from retrospective and prospective cohorts provide contemporary efficacy and toxicity data for these attenuated regimens. In addition, recent studies explore the use of alternative donors, introduce regimens that attempt to reduce toxicity without reducing intensity, and identify predictive factors that pave the way to personalized approaches. These studies paint a picture of the future of RIC transplants. Here we review the current status of RIC allogeneic SCT in AML.
