Prognostic impact of complex karyotype on post-transplant outcomes of myelofibrosis. Hematol Oncol 2022; 40:1076-1085. [PMID: 35964301 DOI: 10.1002/hon.3058] [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: 05/26/2022] [Revised: 07/11/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Chromosomal abnormalities in the role of prognostic factor for transplant patients with myelofibrosis (MF) are not fully investigated. Regarding complex karyotype (CK), we retrospectively analyzed 241 patients with primary and secondary MF who received a first allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Based on an unfavorable karyotype in the Dynamic International Prognostic Scoring System, we compared the outcomes in 3 groups: favorable karyotype, unfavorable karyotype including CK (unfavorable-CK(+)), and unfavorable karyotype not including CK (unfavorable-CK(-)). Overall survival was significantly shorter in the unfavorable-CK(+) group (hazard ratio (HR) 2.49, 95% CI: 1.46-4.24, P < 0.001), whereas there was no difference between the unfavorable-CK(-) group and the favorable group (HR 0.57, 95% CI: 0.20-1.59, P = 0.28). In addition, a significantly higher proportion of patients in the unfavorable-CK(+) group did not achieve complete remission after HCT (P = 0.007). The cumulative incidence of disease progression was significantly higher in the unfavorable-CK(+) group (HR 2.5, 95% CI 1.6-3.92, P < 0.001), whereas that in the unfavorable-CK(-) group was comparable to that in the favorable group (HR 0.49, 95% CI 0.12-1.94, P = 0.31). Further investigations will be needed to clarify the impact of CK on transplant outcomes in MF.

Abstract
Moving from indication to transplantation is a critical process in myelofibrosis. Most of guidelines specifically focus on either myelofibrosis disease or transplant procedure, and, currently, no distinct indication for the management of MF candidates to transplant is available. Nevertheless, this period of time is crucial for the transplant outcome because engraftment, non-relapse mortality, and relapse incidence are greatly dependent upon the pre-transplant management. Based on these premises, in this review, we will go through the path of identification of the MF patients suitable for a transplant, by using disease-specific prognostic scores, and the evaluation of eligibility for a transplant, based on performance, comorbidity, and other combined tools. Then, we will focus on the process of donor and conditioning regimens’ choice. The pre-transplant management of splenomegaly and constitutional symptoms, cytopenias, iron overload and transplant timing will be comprehensively discussed. The principal aim of this review is, therefore, to give a practical guidance for managing MF patients who are potential candidates for allo-HCT.

Abstract
Myelofibrosis is one of the classical Philadelphia chromosome-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms characterized by progressive marrow failure and chronic inflammation. Discovery of the JAK2 mutation paved the way for development of small molecular inhibitors and further facilitated the research in understanding of molecular biology of the disease. Development of novel medications and synergistic combinations with standard JAK inhibitor (JAKi) therapy may have the potential to improve depth and duration of disease control and symptomatic benefit, whereas advancements in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) have improved tolerability and donor availability, allowing for more patients to pursue this potentially curative therapy. The increase in options for medical therapy and changing risk profile of HCT is leading to increased complexity in counseling patients on choice of management strategy. In this case-based review, we summarize our approach to symptom-directed medical therapy, including the use of novel drugs and combination therapies currently under study in advanced clinical trials. We outline our recommendations for optimal timing of HCT, including risk-adapted selection for early HCT as opposed to delayed HCT after upfront JAKi therapy, as well as the use of pretransplant JAKi and alternative donor sources.

Abstract
The aim of this review is to update the current status of allogeneic hemopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT) for patients with myelofibrosis (MF). We have first summarized the issue of an indication for allogeneic HSCT, discussing several prognostic scoring systems, developed to predict the outcome of MF, and therefore to identify patients who will benefit of an allogeneic HSCT. Patients with low risk MF are usually not selected for a transplant, whereas patients with intermediate or high risk MF are eligible. A separate issue, is how to predict the outcome of HSCT: we will outline a clinical molecular myelofibrosis transplant scoring system (MTSS), which predicts overall survival, ranging from 90% for low risk patients, to 20% for very high risk patients. We will also discuss transfusion burden and spleen size, as predictors of transplant outcome. The choice of a transplant platform including the conditioning regimen, the stem cell source and GvHD prophylaxis, are crucial for a successful program in MF, and will be outlined. Complications such as poor graft function, graft failure, GvHD and relapse of the disease, will also be reviewed. Finally we discuss monitoring the disease after HSCT with donor chimerism, driver mutations and hematologic data. We have made an effort to make this review as comprehensive and up to date as possible, and we hope it will provide some useful data for the clinicians.

Abstract
Myelofibrosis (MF) is a clonal stem cell neoplasm with heterogeneous clinical phenotypes and well-established molecular drivers. Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers an important curative treatment option for primary MF and post-essential thrombocythaemia/polycythaemia vera MF or secondary MF. With a disease course that varies from indolent to highly progressive, we are now able to stratify risk of mortality through various tools including patient-related clinical characteristics as well as molecular genetic profile. Owing to the high risk of mortality and morbidity associated with HSCT for patients with myelofibrosis, it is important to improve patient selection for transplant. Our primary goal is to comprehensively define our understanding of current practices including the role of Janus Kinase (JAK) inhibitors, to present the data behind transplantation before and after leukaemic transformation, and to introduce novel personalization of MF treatment with a proposed clinical-molecular prognostic model to help elucidate a timepoint optimal for consideration of HSCT.

Abstract
To date, there are no data focusing on outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms, unclassifiable (MDS/MPN-U). This study aimed to evaluate outcomes and prognostic factors in patients with MDS/MPN-U after allo-HSCT using Japanese nationwide registry data. The primary endpoint was 3-year overall survival (OS); secondary endpoints included the cumulative incidence of relapse and nonrelapse mortality (NRM). We evaluated the prognostic factors for 3-year OS by univariate analysis using the log-rank test. In our cohort of 86 patients with MDS/MPN-U, we found a 3-year OS of 48.5%, cumulative incidence of relapse of 23.7%, and NRM of 26.3%. The 3-year OS was significantly worse in patients age ≥50 years compared with those age <50 years (38.1% versus 65.0%; P = .049) and in patients with disease progression compared with those without disease progression (28.4% versus 57.2%; P = .042). Our results suggest that allo-HSCT may offer a curative option for patients with MDS/MPN-U, and that age and disease status could be important indicators in helping clinicians determine treatment options for these patients.

Optimizing the Conditioning Regimen for Hematopoietic Cell Transplant in Myelofibrosis: Long-Term Results of a Prospective Phase II Clinical Trial. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2020; 26:1439-1445.

Abstract
Optimal conditioning regimens for older patients with myelofibrosis undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant are not known. Likewise, the role of dose intensity is not clear. We conducted a nonrandomized, prospective, phase II trial using low-dose, later escalated to high-dose (myeloablative conditioning), busulfan with fludarabine (Bu-Flu) in myelofibrosis patients up to age 74 years. The first 15 patients received i.v. busulfan 130 mg/m2/day on days -3 and -2 ("low dose"); 31 patients received high-dose conditioning, either 100 mg/m2/day (days -5 to -2; n = 4) or pharmacokinetic-guided area under the curve of 4000 μmol/min (days -5 to -2; n = 27). The primary endpoint was day 100 nonrelapse mortality (NRM). Median age was 58 years (interquartile range [IQR], 53-63). Dynamic international prognostic scoring system-plus was intermediate (n = 28) or high (n = 18). Donors were related (n = 19) or unrelated (n = 27). Cumulative incidence of NRM was 9.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 0-20.3) at day 100 and at 3 years in the high-dose group and 0% in the low-dose group at day 100, which increased to 20% (95% CI, 0-41.9) at 3 years. With a median follow-up of 5.1 years (IQR, 3.8-6), 3-year relapse was 32.3% (95% CI, 15.4-49.1) in high dose versus 53.3% (95% CI, 26.6-80.1) in low dose. Event-free survival was 58% (95% CI, 43-78) versus 27% (95% CI, 12-62), and overall survival was 74% (95% CI, 60-91) versus 60% (95% CI, 40-91). In multivariate analysis, high-dose busulfan had a trend toward lower relapse (hazard ratio, .44; 95% CI, .18-1.07; P = .07), with no impact on NRM. Intensifying the Bu-Flu regimen using pharmacokinetic-monitoring appears to be promising in reducing relapse without increasing NRM.

Zhang L, Yang F, Feng S. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation for myelofibrosis. Ther Adv Hematol 2020; 11:2040620720906002. [PMID: 32110286 PMCID: PMC7019406 DOI: 10.1177/2040620720906002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2019] [Accepted: 01/09/2020] [Indexed: 12/22/2022] Open
Abstract
Myelofibrosis is one of the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-negative
myeloproliferative neoplasms with heterogeneous clinical course. Though many
treatment options, including Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitors, have provided
clinical benefits and improved survival, allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell
transplantation (AHSCT) remains the only potentially curative therapy.
Considering the significant transplant-related morbidity and mortality, it is
crucial to decide who to proceed to AHSCT, and when. In this review, we discuss
recent updates in patient selection, prior splenectomy, conditioning regimen,
donor type, molecular mutation, and other factors affecting AHSCT outcomes.
Relapse is a major cause of treatment failure; we also describe recent data on
minimal residual disease monitoring and management of relapse. In addition,
emerging studies have reported pretransplant therapy with ruxolitinib for
myelofibrosis showing favorable results, and further research is needed to
explore its use in the post-transplant setting.

Abstract
Objective Little information is available about the outcome of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for patients with secondary myelofibrosis from essential thrombocythemia (ET) and polycythemia vera (PV). A nationwide retrospective study of the outcome of HSCT for post-ET and post-PV myelofibrosis was conducted in Japan. Patients and Methods Clinical data for patients with post-ET (n=29) and post-PV (n=9) myelofibrosis who had received first allogeneic HSCT were extracted from the Transplant Registry Unified Management Program, which is a registry of the outcomes of HSCT in Japan. Results Five patients died without neutrophil recovery within 60 days after transplantation. The incidence of neutrophil recovery was significantly lower in umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation than in related donor transplantation (40% vs. 92%, p=0.010). The 1-year non-relapse mortality for post-ET and post-PV myelofibrosis was 35% and 27%, respectively (p=0.972). No patient or transplantation characteristics were associated with non-relapse mortality. The 4-year overall survival for post-ET and post-PV myelofibrosis was 46% and 65%, respectively (p=0.362). A univariate analysis identified UCB transplantation (vs. related donor, p=0.017) and ≥10 times red blood cell transfusions before transplantation (vs. <10 times, p=0.037) as predictive of a lower overall survival. Conclusion Allogeneic HSCT provides a long-term survival for at least some patients with post-ET and post-PV myelofibrosis. Further studies with more patients are required to determine the best alternative donor.

Reduced-intensity conditioning allogeneic transplant with dual T-cell depletion in myelofibrosis. Eur J Haematol 2019; 103:597-606. [PMID: 31514253 DOI: 10.1111/ejh.13327] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/14/2019] [Revised: 08/29/2019] [Accepted: 09/05/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There remains a significant mortality in recipients with MF who undergo allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT). The combination of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) provides good control of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) when peripheral blood stem cell grafts are used. METHODS We report the outcome of 37 recipients with myelofibrosis who underwent reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allo-HSCT with ATG and PTCy. Median follow-up was 16.4 months. RESULTS Nine (24.3%) recipients received 10/10 MRD grafts, 17 (45.9%) 10/10 MUD grafts, 4 (10.8%) 9/10 MUD grafts, and 7 (18.9%) haploidentical donor grafts. Six (16.3%) patients had graft failure. The cumulative incidence of grade II-IV and grade III-IV aGVHD at day +100 and moderate/severe chronic GVHD at 1 year was as follows: 13.5%, 5.4%, and 17%. There were no deaths secondary to GVHD. One-year overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), non-relapse mortality (NRM), and GVHD-free/RFS (GRFS) were respectively 74.4%, 71.3%, 23%, and 43.3%. Those recipients who had worse KPS ≤ 80% had worse OS and RFS. CONCLUSION RIC allo-HSCT with ATG and PTCy results in high OS and RFS in patients with myelofibrosis and absence of mortality secondary to GVHD. Further investigations are required to reduce NRM and graft failure rates.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) is, at present, the only potentially curative therapy for myelofibrosis (MF). Despite many improvements, outcomes of HSCT are still burdened by substantial morbidity and high transplant-related mortality. Allogeneic transplant is generally considered in intermediate-2 and high-risk patients aged <70 years, but the optimal selection of patients and timing of the procedure remains under debate, as does as the role of JAK inhibitors in candidates for HSCT. Starting from a real-life clinical case scenario, herein we examine some of the crucial issues of HSCT for MF in light of recent refinements on MF risk stratification, data on the use of ruxolitinib before and after transplant and findings on the impact of different conditioning regimens and donor selection.
