Predicting the loss of hepatitis B surface antigen following haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with chronic HBV infection. Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:265-272.

Abstract
Clearance of hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) is an ideal therapeutic goal for patients with chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the most effective therapy for a variety of haematological diseases. For patients with chronic HBV infection who received allo-HSCT, recipient hepatitis B serological status might change after allo-HSCT; however, data on the loss of HBsAg following allo-HSCT are relatively rare. We first reviewed patients with chronic HBV infection who received allo-HSCT in our centre from 2010 to 2020, and 125 patients were included in our study. A total of 62 patients (49.6%) with chronic HBV infection achieved HBsAg loss after allo-HSCT. Positivity for HBeAb and HBsAb in donors as well as no cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection were identified as independent risk factors for HBsAg loss after allo-HSCT. A predictive model including positivity for HBeAb and HBsAb in donors and no CMV infection was subsequently developed and performed well with effective discrimination and calibration. In addition, patients could benefit when this model is used in the clinic, as revealed via decision-curve analysis (DCA). However, multicentre prospective studies are required for validation.

Abstract
Organ transplantation is a life-saving treatment for patients with end-stage organ disease, a severe condition associated with a high risk of waitlist mortality. It is primarily limited by a shortage of available organs. Maximising available donors can increase access to transplantation. Transplantation from donors positive for HBV and HIV has increased in many countries. However, antiviral therapies need to be readily available for recipients after transplantation to prevent possible reactivation of the virus following the administration of immunosuppressive therapies. Furthermore, the intentional transmission of a virus has practical, ethical, and clinical implications. In this review, we summarise the current research, focusing on grafts from donors positive for the HBV surface antigen, antibodies against the HBV core antigen, and HIV, to help hepatologists and physicians interested in transplantation to select the best antiviral and/or prophylactic regimens for after transplantation.

Hepatitis B Seropositive Status in Recipients or Donors Is Not Related to Worse Outcomes after Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. Transplant Cell Ther 2021; 27:668.e1-668.e9. [PMID: 34052506 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2021.05.015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/10/2021] [Revised: 05/15/2021] [Accepted: 05/19/2021] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
Hepatitis B virus (HBV) has a high rate of chronic infection in Asian populations, and only limited studies have been performed to analyze the impact of HBV-seropositive haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) recipients and donors. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect on clinical outcomes in those patients. We conducted a retrospective study enrolling 237 consecutive patients undergoing first haplo-HSCT. The patients were classified into 3 groups: recipient HBV-positive group (R+D-; n = 62), donor HBV-positive group (D+; n = 83), and HBV-negative group (R-D-; n = 92). Corresponding prophylactic antiviral treatment was given in the R+D- and D+ groups. The results were compared among the 3 groups using the Kruskal-Wallis test for continuous variables, Pearson's chi-square test for categorical variables, the competing-risk method to evaluate cumulative incidence, Kaplan-Meier curves to estimate overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS), and a Cox proportional hazard model to analyze multivariable influences. The 3-year cumulative HBV reactivation rate was 4.2%. The median time to HBV reactivation was 845 days (range, 545 to 1439 days) after haplo-HSCT. The R+D- group tended to have a higher cumulative incidence of HBV reactivation compared with the D+ group (11.8% versus 3.1%; P = .080). Significant differences in the causes of hepatic damage were observed among the 3 groups (P = .017), and all patients with acute hepatitis B after haplo-HSCT were from the R+D- group. Multivariate analysis showed that pretransplantation HBV status was associated with cytomegalovirus reactivation (R+D- versus R-D-: hazard ratio, 1.514; 95% confidence interval, 1.060 to 2.163; P = .023). The 3-year OS and DFS, 3-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM), rates of relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and causes of death were comparable among the 3 groups. Pretransplantation HBV serostatus had no significant effect on OS, DFS, NRM, relapse, or GVHD in the multivariate analysis. Based on our data, seropositivity for hepatitis B surface antigen (HbsAg) or core antibody (HBcAb) in donors or recipients before transplantation did not negatively affect the overall outcome after haplo-HSCT under the premise of proper antiviral prophylaxis along with regular post-transplantation surveillance, and HBV seropositivity should not be considered a contraindication to haplo-HSCT.

Abstract
The high morbidity of HBV reactivation following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is partially due to the intense immunologic potency of complex therapeutic regimens, the use of antithymocyte globulin and calcineurin inhibitors to prevent graft versus-host disease (GVHD), prolonged immune reconstitution, and hematological malignancies infected with hepatitis B virus (HBV). Immunosuppression results in the reactivation of HBV replication from covalently closed circular DNA (cccDNA) residing in hepatocytes. However, the role of viral mutations during HBV reactivation needs to be validated. All individuals scheduled to receive allo-HSCT or wish to donate stem cells should be screened for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), antibodies to hepatitis B core (anti-HBc), and HBV-DNA. HBsAg-positive recipients of allo-HSCT have a high risk of HBV reactivation; thus, they should receive prophylactic antiviral therapy. The high barrier to resistance nucleos(t)-ide analogs (NAs) seems to be superior to the low barrier agents. Resolved-HBV recipients have a lower risk of HBV reactivation than HBsAg-positive recipients. Although prophylactic antiviral therapy remains controversial, regular monitoring of alanine transaminase (ALT) and HBV-DNA combined with preemptive antiviral treatment may be an optimized strategy. However, optimal antiviral therapy duration and time intervals for monitoring remain to be established. Accepting stem cells from HBsAg-positive donors is associated with a risk of developing HBV-related hepatitis. The overall intervention strategy, including donors and recipients, may decrease the risk of HBV-related hepatitis following HSCT from HBsAg positive stem cells. In this review, we summarize the issues of HBV in allo-HSCT, including HBV reactivation mechanism, HBsAg-positive recipients, HBV-resolved infection recipients, and donor-related factors, and discuss their significance.
