Abstract
Introduction Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) possessed direct cytotoxicity and graft-versus-multiple myeloma effect (GvMM). Growing trials have shown survival benefits of performing alloHCT in both newly diagnosed and relapsed MM. Methods We aimed to provide a comprehensive analysis in the recent 10 years to verify the efficacy and survival outcome of alloHCT in MM patients. A total of 61 studies which provide data between 14/04/2013 and 14/04/2023 and a total of 15,294 data from MM patients who had undergone alloSCT were included in our study. The best response rates (CR, VGPR, PR) and survival outcomes (1-, 2-, 3-,5-, and 10-year OS, PFS, NRM) were assessed. We further conducted meta-analysis in the NDMM/frontline setting and RRMM/salvage setting independently. Results The pooled estimate CR, VGPR, and PR rates were 0.45, 0.21, and 0.24, respectively. The pooled estimates of 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year OS were 0.69, 0.57, 0.45, 0.45, and 0.36, respectively; the pooled estimates of 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year PFS were 0.47, 0.35, 0.24, 0.25, and 0.28, respectively; and the pooled estimates of 1-, 2-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year NRM were 0.16, 0.21, 0.16, 0.20, and 0.15, respectively. In the NDMM/upfront setting, the pooled estimate CR rate was 0.54, and those for 5-year OS, PFS, and NRM were 0.69, 0.40, and 0.11, respectively. In a relapsed setting, the pooled estimate CR rate was 0.31, and those for 5-year OS, PFS, and NRM were 0.24, 0.10, and 0.15, respectively. Discussion Our results showed constant OS, PFS, and NRM from the third year onwards till the 10th year, suggesting that alloSCT has sustained survival benefits. Good response rate and promising survival outcome were observed in the NDMM/ frontline setting. Conclusion Although comparing with other treatments, alloSCT had a lower response rate and poorer short-term survival outcome, long-term follow-up could reveal survival benefits of alloSCT in MM patients.

Abstract
The introduction of novel agents dramatically improved response and outcomes of multiple myeloma (MM) and led to a sharp decline in the use of allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Thus, recent guidelines do not recommend anymore allo-HSCT as consolidation in the first-line treatment of newly diagnosed MM, even in high-risk patients. In a relapsed/refractory setting, allo-HSCT is not routinely recommended but should only be performed within clinical trials in young and high-risk patients. Nonetheless, allo-HSCT still represents a potential curative approach that has been used for decades in the treatment of MM and plasma cell neoplasms with favorable results and may still represent a treatment option for carefully selected patients. Despite that promising results were obtained with CAR T-cell therapies and bispecific antibodies in triple- and penta-exposed/refractory MM, these patients will inevitably relapse. To date, less is known about outcomes of allo-HSCT in patients exposed to novel immunotherapeutic drugs. Therefore, allo-HSCT could represent a reasonable treatment choice for younger and high-risk patients who have relapsed after CAR T-cell therapies and bispecific antibodies as well as an alternative for patients not eligible to these treatments and in those countries where immunotherapies are not yet available. In the choice of conditioning, reduced intensity conditioning regimens are currently recommended for the lower toxicity and mortality. Moreover, the use of alternative donors, particularly haploidentical, has progressively increased in last years with results comparable to full matched donors. Finally, post-transplantation maintenance strategies are encouraged whenever feasible.

Optimization of Radiolabeling of a [ 90Y]Y-Anti-CD66-Antibody for Radioimmunotherapy before Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation. Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:3660.

Abstract
For patients with acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or acute lymphoblastic leukemia, allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative treatment. In addition to standard conditioning regimens for HCT, high-dose radioimmunotherapy (RIT) offers the unique opportunity to selectively deliver a high dose of radiation to the bone marrow while limiting side effects. Modification of a CD66b-specific monoclonal antibody (mAb) with a DTPA-based chelating agent should improve the absorbed dose distribution during therapy. The stability and radioimmunoreactive fraction of the radiolabeled mAbs were determined. Before RIT, all patients underwent dosimetry to determine absorbed doses to bone marrow, kidneys, liver, and spleen. Scans were performed twenty-four hours after therapy for quality control. A radiochemical purity of >95% and acceptable radioimmunoreactivity was achieved. Absorbed organ doses for the liver and kidney were consequently improved compared to reported historical data. All patients tolerated RIT well with no treatment-related acute adverse events. Complete remission could be observed in 4/5 of the patients 3 months after RIT. Two patients developed delayed liver failure unrelated to the radioimmunotherapy. The improved conjugation and radiolabeling procedure resulted in excellent stability, radiochemical purity, and CD66-specific radioimmunoreactivity of 90Y-labeled anti-CD66 mAb. RIT followed by conditioning and HCT was well tolerated. Based on these promising initial data, further prospective studies of [90Y]Y-DTPA-Bn-CHX-A″-anti-CD66-mAb-assisted conditioning in HCT are warranted.

Abstract
Multiple myeloma (MM) is an indolent B-cell malignancy, where treatment is aimed at preventing organ dysfunction from light chain accumulation (slowing disease progression) and inducing remission. Allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT), through graft versus myeloma (GVM) effects, has the potential to induce remission to a potentially curative-like state. In this systematic review, we aimed to understand this relationship to the risks and severity of disease in categorized patients and gain an updated comprehension of the future of allo-SCT in MM treatment. We conducted this review according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines and searched the PubMed database to obtain the specified literature with both the use of keywords and Medical Subject Headings (MeSH). A total of 16 relevant articles were included for discussion after the quality appraisal was completed, as appropriate, by either the Cochrane tool or Newcastle-Ottawa checklist. Our review concludes that while allo-SCT may benefit high-risk patients, successful procedures may incorporate a tandem autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant approach in combination with novel pharmacologic contributions for which there is an observed synergy in the modulation of the immunologic microenvironment. Furthermore, tailored patient selection by evaluating pre-transplant factors including high-risk cytogenetics, age, and pre-salvage International Staging System (ISS) can predict post-transplantation success including non-relapse mortality. Successive research should continue to revise and update treatment options as the evolving therapeutic drug regimens may change over the course of indolent disease.

Abstract
Sickle cell disease (SCD) is a severe autosomal recessively inherited disorder of the red blood cell characterized by erythrocyte deformation caused by the polymerization of the abnormal hemoglobin, which leads to erythrocyte deformation and triggers downstream pathological changes. These include abnormal rheology, vaso-occlusion, ischemic tissue damage, and hemolysis-associated endothelial dysfunction. These acute and chronic physiologic disturbances contribute to morbidity, organ dysfunction, and diminished survival. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from HLA-matched or unrelated donors or haploidentical related donors or genetically modified autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells is performed with the intent of cure or long-term amelioration of disease manifestations. Excellent outcomes have been observed following HLA-identical matched related donor HCT. The majority of SCD patients do not have an available HLA-identical sibling donor. Increasingly, however, they have the option of undergoing HCT from unrelated HLA matched or related haploidentical donors. The preliminary results of transplantation of autologous hematopoietic progenitor cells genetically modified by adding a non-sickling gene or by genomic editing to increase expression of fetal hemoglobin are encouraging. These approaches are being evaluated in early-phase clinical trials. In performing HCT in patients with SCD, careful consideration must be given to patient and donor selection, conditioning and graft-vs.-host disease regimen, and pre-HCT evaluation and management during and after HCT. Sociodemographic factors may also impact awareness of and access to HCT. Further, there is a substantial decisional dilemma in HCT with complex tradeoffs between the possibility of amelioration of disease manifestations and early or late complications of HCT. The performance of HCT for SCD requires careful multidisciplinary collaboration and shared decision making between the physician and informed patients and caregivers.

Abstract
Despite significant progress made in the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) in the last decade, for patients with early relapse or rapidly progressing high-risk disease, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) might be an option leading to long-term survival. Here, we retrospectively analyzed the outcomes of 90 MM patients who received allogeneic SCT in our center between 1999 and 2017. We specifically assessed the association of impaired humoral immune reconstitution, referred to as immunoparesis, and post-transplant survival. Sixty-four patients received allogeneic SCT in relapse following 2–7 lines of therapy; 26 patients received upfront tandem autologous-allogeneic SCT. With a median follow-up of 76 months, OS and PFS were 52.6% (95% CI 42.9–64.3) and 36.4% (95% CI 27.6–47.9) at 2 years and 38.6% (95% CI 29.2–51.1) and 25.3% (95% CI 17.5–36.4) at 5 years, respectively. Receiving more than two therapy lines prior to transplantation was an independent risk factor for OS (HR 3.68, 95% CI 2.02–6.70) and PFS (HR 3.69, 95% CI 2.09–6.50). In a landmark analysis at day 200, prolonged immunoparesis was associated with reduced OS (HR 3.22, 95% CI 1.14–9.11). Allogeneic stem cell transplantation offers an additional treatment element that may lead to long-term remission in selected patients with poor prognosis, probably exploiting graft-versus-myeloma effects. Immunoparesis could potentially serve as an indicator for impaired survival following allogeneic transplantation, an observation to be further studied prospectively.
