Unrelated cord blood transplantation vs. HLA-matched sibling transplantation for adults with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia in complete remission: superior OS for patients with long-term survival. STEM CELL RESEARCH & THERAPY 2022; 13:500. [PMID: 36210439 PMCID: PMC9549614 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-03186-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/30/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022]
Abstract
Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an important curative therapy for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). For patients who lack a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donor, unrelated cord blood (UCB) is an alternative graft option. Previous studies have focused mainly on all T- and B-cell ALL (B-ALL) patients, while data related specifically to adult B-ALL patients after UCB transplantation (UCBT) are scarce. Methods We retrospectively compared the outcomes of UCBT and HLA-matched sibling transplantation (MST) in the treatment of adult B-ALL patients in complete remission (CR) at our center. From June 2006 to December 2020, 156 adult B-ALL patients who achieved CR before transplantation were enrolled. The main clinical outcomes of UCBT and MST were analyzed. Results Hematopoietic recovery was significantly faster in MST recipients than in UCBT recipients. Higher incidences of grades II-IV and III-IV acute graft-versus host disease (aGVHD) were found in UCBT recipients (P < 0.001 and = 0.03), while a lower incidence of extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was found in UCBT recipients (P < 0.001). The cumulative incidences of 2-year non-relapse mortality (NRM), 2-year relapse, 5-year disease-free survival (DFS) and 5-year GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS) were comparable between MST and UCBT recipients. The overall survival (OS) during the first 700 days was similar between the MST and UCBT groups, while the OS of patients with a survival time of more than 700 days in the UCBT group was better than that in the MST group according to multivariate analysis (P = 0.03). Conclusions Our study shows that when treating adult B-ALL patients in CR, UCBT can achieve comparable effects as MST, may provide superior OS for patients with long-term survival, and should be considered a good alternative.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have immunomodulatory properties and support hematopoiesis in the bone marrow (BM). To develop a new strategy to not only prevent graft‐vs‐host disease (GVHD) but also to enhance engraftment, a phase I trial of cord blood transplantation (CBT) combined with intra‐BM injection of MSCs (MSC‐CBT) was designed. Third‐party BM‐derived MSCs were injected intra‐BM on the day of CBT. The conditioning regimen varied according to patient characteristics. GVHD prophylaxis was tacrolimus and methotrexate. The primary endpoint was toxicity related to intra‐BM injection of MSCs. Clinical outcomes were compared with those of six controls who received CBT alone. Five adult patients received MSC‐CBT, and no adverse events related to intra‐BM injection of MSCs were observed. All patients achieved neutrophil, reticulocyte, and platelet recoveries, with median times to recoveries of 21, 35, and 38 days, respectively, comparable with controls. Grade II‐IV acute GVHD developed in three controls but not in MSC‐CBT patients. No patients developed chronic GVHD in both groups. At 1 year after transplantation, all MSC‐CBT patients survived without relapse. This study shows the safety of MSC‐CBT, and the findings also suggest that cotransplantation of MSCs may prevent GVHD with no inhibition of engraftment. This trial was registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network Clinical Trials Registry as number 000024291.

Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2020; 26:2105-2114.

Abstract
The outcomes of 7/8 allele-matched unrelated bone marrow transplantation (7/8 UBMT) and umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) have been improving. We retrospectively analyzed adults with acute leukemia who underwent their first 7/8 UBMT or UCBT in Japan. Between January 2008 and December 2017, a total of 4150 patients were recorded, including 488 who underwent 7/8 UBMT and 3662 who underwent UCBT. Only 32 patients with 7/8 UBMT had graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) high-risk HLA mismatched pairs. Overall survival at 3 years was 54% for 7/8 the UBMT group and 46% for the UCBT group, a nonsignificant difference in multivariate analysis (hazard ratio [HR], 1.01; 95% confidence interval [CI], .88 to 1.17; P = .89). The 7/8 UBMT and UCBT groups showed a similar nonrelapse mortality rate (HR, 1.16; 95% CI, .96 to 1.45; P = .16) and relapse rate (HR, .85; 95% CI, .71 to 1.02; P = .08). However, the UCBT group had a lower risk of grade II-IV acute GVHD (HR, .76; 95% CI, .65 to .88; P < .001) and chronic GVHD (HR, .77; 95% CI, .66- .91; P = .002) compared with the 7/8 UBMT group. In stratified analyses combining disease risk with conditioning intensity, 7/8 UBMT showed superior overall survival to UCBT in standard risk and myeloablative conditioning (HR, .72; 95% CI, .56 to .93; P = .014). Both 7/8 UBMT and UCBT are appropriate alternative donor procedures. The stem cell source can be selected on the basis of disease risk, patient tolerability, or concerns regarding GVHD.

Prospective evaluation of alternative donor from unrelated donor and cord blood in adult acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Bone Marrow Transplant 2020; 55:1399-1409.

Abstract
A prospectively registered observational study was conducted to assess the significance of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from highly HLA-matched unrelated donors (UD) and cord blood (CB) on outcomes in adult acute leukemia (AL) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Between 2007 and 2015, 231 transplant-eligible patients were registered for a phase 2 study of alternative donor transplantation. After registration, a sufficient time period was given to find appropriate UD. Patients received CB transplantation (CBT) if an appropriate UD was unavailable. In total, 119 patients received CBT (106 AL and 13 MDS) and 91 patients received UD transplantation (UDT) (86 AL and 5 MDS). The median age was 39 years in both groups. The primary objective was overall survival (OS); secondary objectives included cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse, and disease-free survival. Diagnosis, disease status at transplantation, refined disease risk index, and hematopoietic cell transplant-specific comorbidity index did not differ between UDT and CBT. In multivariate analyses, graft source was not a significant risk factor for all objectives. In adjusted analyses, UDT and CBT showed similar OS, NRM, and relapse in this prospective study. CB can be a comparable alternative stem cell source to UD by achieving a timely transplant.
