Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the last two decades, umbilical cord blood (UCB) and haploidentical transplantation (HaploHSCT) have emerged as alternative sources of hematopoietic stem cell for allogeneic transplantation. There are few retrospective studies and no prospective studies comparing both types of alternative transplantation in pediatric patients. RESULTS We analyzed the data of 134 children with hematological malignancies who received a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a single umbilical cord blood (UCB) (n = 42) or an "ex-vivo" T-cell depleted transplant from a haploidentical-related donor (HaploHSCT) (n = 92) between 1996 and 2014. Hematological recovery was faster after HaploHSCT than the UCB transplant group (median times to neutrophil and platelet recovery: 13 vs. 16 days, 10 vs. 57 days, respectively) (P < 0.001). The HaploHSCT group had a significantly early immune reconstitution based on NK and CD8 + T cells compared with the UCB group. However, after the first year post-transplantation, HaploHSCT had a lower number of CD4 + T and B lymphocytes compared with the UCB transplant recipients. The cumulative incidence of TRM was 29±8% in the HaploHSCT group versus 40±5% in the UCB group. Relapse incidence was 21±7% in the HaploHSCT group and 19±8% in the UCB group. Probability of DFS was 58±8% in the HaploHSCT group versus 40±9% in the UCB group (P = 0.051). CONCLUSIONS TCD haploidentical transplant is associated with advantages in terms of engraftment and early immune reconstitution kinetics. TCD haploidentical transplant was associated with lower incidence of infectious and non-infectious complications, especially in the early phases of the transplant compared with UCB transplant recipients. However, there are no advantages in transplant outcomes compared with UCB transplant.

Comparison of haploidentical and umbilical cord blood transplantation after myeloablative conditioning. Blood Adv 2021; 5:4064-4072. [PMID: 34461630 PMCID: PMC8945645 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2021004462] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2021] [Accepted: 05/09/2021] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Three-year survival is similar after PTCy haplo- and UCB transplant. Lower relapse but higher nonrelapse mortality in ≤5/8 matched UCB as compared with haplo- and 6-8/8 UCB transplant.
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) has emerged as an important treatment modality. Most reports comparing haplo-HSCT with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) and other donor sources have focused on outcomes in older adults treated with reduced intensity conditioning. Therefore, in the current study, we evaluated outcomes in patients with hematological malignancy treated with myeloablative conditioning prior to haplo- (n = 375) or umbilical cord blood (UCB; n = 333) HSCT. All haplo recipients received a 4 of 8 HLA-matched graft, whereas recipients of UCB were matched at 6-8/8 (n = 145) or ≤5/8 (n = 188) HLA antigens. Recipients of 6-8/8 UCB transplants were younger (14 years vs 21 and 29 years) and more likely to have lower comorbidity scores compared with recipients of ≤5/8 UCB and haplo-HSCT (81% vs 69% and 63%, respectively). UCB recipients were more likely to have acute lymphoblastic leukemia and transplanted in second complete remission (CR), whereas haplo-HSCT recipients were more likely to have acute myeloid leukemia in the first CR. Other characteristics, including cytogenetic risk, were similar. Survival at 3 years was similar for the donor sources (66% haplo- and 61% after ≤5/8 and 58% after 6-8/8 UCB). Notably, relapse at 3 years was lower in recipients of ≤5/8 UCB (21%, P = .03) compared with haplo- (36%) and 6-8/8 UCB (30%). However, nonrelapse mortality was higher in ≤5/8 UCB (21%) compared with other groups (P < .0001). These data suggest that haplo-HSCT with PTCy after myeloablative conditioning provides an overall survival outcome comparable to that after UCB regardless HLA match group.

Abstract
Haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HSCT) has emerged as a novel strategy to treat patients suffering from severe aplastic anemia (SAA) who lack matched donors due to the availability and easy access to sources of donors. Anti-human leukocyte antigen donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) have been found to influence the outcome of Haplo-HSCT. Between March 2016 and March 2020, 7 SAA patients with DSAs underwent Haplo-HSCT in our center. We employed a modified protocol of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide and plasma exchange aiming to decrease the levels of DSAs. All 7 patients successfully achieved hematopoietic reconstruction. The median follow-up is 31 (range, 8 to 45) months. They survived and were transfusion-independent in the absence of clonality. No occurrence of primary or secondary graft failure has been noted among any of the patients. There was no severe acute and chronic GVHD occurred. This protocol is effective for Haplo-HSCT in SAA patients with DSAs, which provides an option for the SAA patients without other alternative donor.

Abstract
We have studied the number of days alive outside the Hospital (DAOH) and the number of readmissions within the first 100 days after transplant in 185 patients who received an allogeneic hemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). The donors were matched siblings (SIB; n=61), or alternative donors (ALT; n=124). The median number of DAOH for SIB transplants (78 days, range 21–84) was significantly greater than DAOH for ALT donor grafts (73 days, range 2–87) (p=0.0003). Other positive predictors of DAOH were the use of reduced-intensity regimens (p=0.01), grade 0-I acute graft versus host disease (GvHD) (p=0.0006), and a comorbidity index equal or less than two (p=0.04). Fifty-one patients required readmission (22%), which was predicted by grade II–IV acute GvHD (p=0.009), higher comorbidity index (p=0.06), and ALT donors as compared to SIBS (p=0.08). The CI of readmission was 18% (95%CI 10–31) for SIB and 30% (95%CI 23–39) for ALT donor grafts. The non relapse mortality (NRM) for patients re-admitted was 25% (95%CI 15–43%), compared to 5% (95%CI 2–12%) for patients not readmitted (p=0.0001). In a multivariate analysis, readmission was the strongest predictor of non-relapse mortality (NRM) (HR 2.0) (p=0.0006) and survival (HR 3.4) (p<0.0001).

Abstract
Allogeneic stem cell transplantations (alloSCT) from haploidentical (>2 HLA mismatch) donors (HaploSCT) are constantly increasing in Europe. From 2005 to 2015 numbers of HaploSCT increased by close to 300%. In parallel, there is a major shift from T deplete (CD34+ megadose) to T replete (non-T deplete) HaploSCT. Graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis also changed from CD34+ cell purifications to anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and lately to post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy). Novel conditioning regimens have been developed incorporating novel drugs and innovative approaches. Results are persistently improving and currently, registry-based and single-center studies showed no statistical significance difference in transplantation outcome between HaploSCT to alloSCT from unrelated donors and even from HLA-matched sibling donors, although the numbers of those studies are small and the lack of randomized studies available so far. HaploSCT have several advantages and such as the possibility to choose between different potential donors. Parameters to consider in the Haplo donor selection are age, gender, kinship, ABO blood group, CMV status, non-shared HLA Haplotypes and killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR). Future goals are to further decrease transplant-related mortality currently mainly due to infection complications and reduce relapse rates especially in patients with high-risk acute leukemia.

Delayed NK Cell Reconstitution and Reduced NK Activity Increased the Risks of CMV Disease in Allogeneic-Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21103663.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection has a significant impact in patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We investigated natural killer (NK) cell reconstitution and cytotoxic/cytokine production in controlling CMV infection, especially severe CMV disease in HSCT patients. Fifty-eight patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who received allo-HSCT were included. We monitored NK reconstitution and NK function at baseline, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 days after HSCT, and compared the results in recipients stratified on post-HSCT CMV reactivation (n = 23), non-reactivation (n = 24) versus CMV disease (n = 11) groups. The CMV disease group had a significantly delayed recovery of CD56dim NK cells and expansion of FcRγ-CD3ζ+NK cells started post-HSCT 150 days. Sequential results of NK cytotoxicity, NK cell-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (NK-ADCC), and NK-Interferon-gamma (NK-IFNγ) production for 180 days demonstrated delayed recovery and decreased levels in the CMV disease group compared with the other groups. The results within 1 month after CMV viremia also showed a significant decrease in NK function in the CMV disease group compared to the CMV reactivation group. It suggests that NK cells' maturation and cytotoxic/IFNγ production contributes to CMV protection, thereby revealing the NK phenotype and functional NK monitoring as a biomarker for CMV risk prediction, especially CMV disease.

Long-term results of a pilot study evaluating hyperbaric oxygen therapy to improve umbilical cord blood engraftment. Ann Hematol 2018; 98:481-489.

Abstract
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation is a promising option for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with hematologic malignancies who lack an HLA-matched sibling or well-matched unrelated donor; however, it has a higher incidence of delayed or failed engraftment because cell doses are low and bone marrow homing is inefficient. We have demonstrated that pre-treating irradiated immune-deficient mice with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) prior to UCB CD34+ cell transplantation lowered host systemic erythropoietin (EPO) and improved UCB CD34+ cell homing and engraftment. These findings suggested that EPO-EPO-R signaling plays a role in UCB CD34+ homing and engraftment. In a pilot clinical trial, we showed that recipients of HBO therapy prior to UCB cell infusion had reduced systemic EPO, which was associated with improved kinetics of blood count recovery. Although early clinical outcomes at day 100 were encouraging, with improved overall survival, the long-term effects of HBO therapy on UCB-transplanted patients were not evaluated. In this study, we examined the long-term outcome of patients in our pilot study, compared with a historic control group, and correlated their clinical outcomes to serum EPO response to HBO. While 50% of HBO-treated patients received single UCB units, ~ 90% of the control patients received double UCB units. Although HBO patients had much better rates of survival at 6 months, their 1-year survival did not significantly differ from the control group. HBO-treated patients had on average lower relapse and non-relapse mortality rates, and less chronic graft versus host disease (GVHD), but had increased acute GVHD. However, these differences were not statistically significant, probably because of the small sample size. In the HBO-treated cohort, immune reconstitution analysis showed significant improvement in early B cell recovery, with a trend toward improvement in early NK cell recovery. When we evaluated the ratio of 8 h to baseline EPO levels, we found a non-significant trend toward lower EPO values in those who neither relapsed nor died by 1 year, compared to those who died or relapsed. This result suggests that EPO response to HBO may be associated with better outcomes. Disease progression-free survival was also improved in those who had more than 80% reduction in EPO levels in response to HBO. Our study highlights the long-term safety of HBO therapy when used prior to UCB transplantation. Future UCB transplant patients who receive HBO should have their serum EPO response measured, as it may be a marker of relapse/mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cord blood (CB) is a widely accepted stem cell source and its clinical utilization depends, to a great extent, on its cell content. Birth-to-clamping (BTC) time of umbilical cord determines placental transfusion to the newborn, and the remaining blood that can be collected and banked. The 2017 Committee Opinion of the American College of Obstetrics and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends a delay of "at least 30-60 seconds" before clamping the cord for all newborns to ensure adequate iron stores. The impact of delayed cord clamping (DCC) on public CB banking can be substantial. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS Cord blood units (CBUs) collected from 1210 mothers at one hospital were evaluated for total nucleated cells (TNCs) and weight/volume based on time to clamping. Bank staff recorded BTC time in seconds as reported by obstetricians; collections were performed ex utero. Immediate clamping was defined as BTC of less than 30 seconds, whereas DCC was defined as BTC of 30 seconds or more. RESULTS Cord clamping was immediate in 903 (75%) and delayed in 307 (25%) deliveries. Successful recovery (% clinical CBUs) decreased 10-fold with DCC of more than 60 seconds (22% vs. 2.4%, p < 0.001). CBUs collected after DCC of more than 60 seconds had significantly lower TNC counts than those after DCC of less than 60 seconds (p < 0.0001). Furthermore, 38% to 46% of CBUs after DCC of more than 60 seconds had volume of less than 40 mL. CONCLUSION Our study indicates that DCC of 30 to 60 seconds has a small negative impact on collection of high-TNC-count CBUs. However, increasing BTC to more than 60 seconds decreases significantly both TNC content and volume, reducing drastically the chances of obtaining clinically useful CBUs.

Abstract
Standard therapy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consists of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) including autologous-HCT (AUTO) and allogeneic-HCT from a matched-sibling donor (MSD) or well-matched unrelated donor (WM-URD). When a conventional donor is not available, HCT from a partially-matched (PM)-URD or familial-mismatched donor (FMMD) is typically considered. We analyzed 561 patients with intermediate to poor-risk molecular cytogenetics who underwent transplant from 2002 to 2013 in their first remission. Engraftment was successful in all donor types except five patients who died in aplasia. Disease-free survival (DFS) at 5 years was 61.4% for MSD, 62.1% for WM-URD, 65.3% for FMMD, 44.7% for AUTO and 36.8% for PM-URD. AUTO showed the highest relapse rate (51.0%) compared to MSD (23.5%) and FMMD (18.5%), but showed the lowest 5-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) rate (3.8%). PM-URD showed the highest NRM (29.3%) with more instances of acute graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) with grade≥III (29.3%), compared to MSD (15.6%) and FMMD (15.7%). In a poor-risk subgroup, the 5-year DFS for FMMD and MSD was 59.8% and 46.7%, respectively, while for AUTO and PM-URD it was 12.6% and 0.0%, respectively, which was caused by a high relapse rate (87.1% in AUTO, 83.3% in PM-URD). In the intermediate-risk subgroup, the 5-year DFS of AUTO (53.9% was not different from the conventional donors in multivariate analysis, presenting a low NRM rate (5.1%). FMMD should be considered prior to PM-URD in intermediate-to-poor-risk AML and GVHD prophylaxis should be intensified when PM-URD is needed. AUTO might be considered for selected patients in the intermediate-risk group.

Abstract
Introduction Identifying sociodemographic disparities in chemotherapy and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) utilization for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) may improve survival for underserved populations. In this study, we incorporate neighborhood socioeconomic status (nSES), marital status, and distance from transplant center with previously studied factors to provide a comprehensive analysis of sociodemographic factors influencing treatments for ALL and AML. Methods Using the California Cancer Registry, we performed a retrospective, population-based study of patients ≥15 years old with ALL (n = 3,221) or AML (n = 10,029) from 2003 through 2012. The effect of age, sex, race/ethnicity, marital status, nSES, and distance from nearest transplant center on receiving no treatment, chemotherapy alone, or chemotherapy then HCT was analyzed. Results No treatment, chemotherapy alone, or chemotherapy then HCT were received by 11%, 75%, and 14% of ALL patients and 36%, 53%, and 11% of AML patients, respectively. For ALL patients ≥60 years old, HCT utilization increased from 5% in 2005 to 9% in 2012 (p = 0.03). For AML patients ≥60 years old, chemotherapy utilization increased from 39% to 58% (p<0.001) and HCT utilization from 5% to 9% from 2005 to 2012 (p<0.001). Covariate-adjusted analysis revealed decreasing relative risk (RR) of chemotherapy with increasing age for both ALL and AML (trend p <0.001). Relative to non-Hispanic whites, lower HCT utilization occurred in Hispanic [ALL, RR = 0.80 (95% CI = 0.65–0.98); AML, RR = 0.86 (95% CI = 0.75–0.99)] and non-Hispanic black patients [ALL, RR = 0.40 (95% CI = 0.18–0.89); AML, RR = 0.60 (95% CI = 0.44–0.83)]. Compared to married patients, never married patients had a lower RR of receiving chemotherapy [ALL, RR = 0.96 (95% CI = 0.92–0.99); AML, RR = 0.94 (95% CI = 0.90–0.98)] or HCT [ALL, RR = 0.58 (95% CI = 0.47–0.71); AML, RR = 0.80 (95% CI = 0.70–0.90)]. Lower nSES quintiles predicted lower chemotherapy and HCT utilization for both ALL and AML (trend p <0.001). Conclusions Older age, lower nSES, and being unmarried predicted lower utilization of chemotherapy and HCT among ALL and AML patients whereas having Hispanic or black race/ethnicity predicted lower rates of HCT. Addressing these disparities may increase utilization of curative therapies in underserved acute leukemia populations.

Infectious Complications after Umbilical Cord-Blood Transplantation from Unrelated Donors. Mediterr J Hematol Infect Dis 2016; 8:e2016051. [PMID: 27872731 PMCID: PMC5111514 DOI: 10.4084/mjhid.2016.051] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2016] [Accepted: 10/03/2016] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Umbilical cord-blood (UCB) is a well-recognized alternative source of stem cells for unrelated donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). As compared with other stem cell sources from adult donors, it has the advantages of immediate availability of cells, absence of risk to the donor and reduced risk of graft-versus-host disease despite donor-recipient HLA disparity. However, the use of UCB is limited by the delayed post-transplant hematologic recovery due, at least in part, to the reduced number of hematopoietic cells in the graft and the delayed or incomplete immune reconstitution. As a result, severe infectious complications continue to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality following UCB transplantation (UCBT). We will address the complex differences in the immune properties of UCB and review the incidence, characteristics, risk factors, and severity of bacterial, fungal and viral infectious complications in patients undergoing UCBT.

Abstract
Umbilical cord blood (CB) is an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) for patients requiring allogeneic HSC transplantation but lacking a suitable human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donor. Using CB has many advantages, including lower HLA-matching requirements, increased donor availability, and low rates of graft-versus-host disease. Furthermore, with over 630,000 cryopreserved volunteer CB units currently stored in international CB banks worldwide, CB is rapidly available for those patients requiring urgent transplantation. However, concern remains over the low HSC doses available in CB grafts, resulting in delayed engraftment and poor immune reconstitution. This article reviews the current use and future developments of unrelated allogeneic CB transplantation (CBT). An overview of the encouraging results of CBT and the comparisons with other HSC sources and transplant strategies both in children and adults with malignant and non-malignant diseases are shown. We will discuss important factors that need to be considered when selecting CB units for transplantation to further improve the results of CBT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The presence of human leukocyte antigen donor-specific antibodies (DSAs) increases the risk of graft failure in T-cell-replete haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) CASE REPORT: A 49-year-old female with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia in first complete remission received a haplo-HSCT from her daughter. Pretransplant recipient screening examination showed high DSAs levels against unshared class I leukocyte antigens. RESULTS The patient underwent a desensitization program consisting of plasma exchange (PEX), polyvalent intravenous (IV) immunoglobulins, and IV tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). This protocol resulted in the disappearance of the DSA anti HLA B41. Engraftment was prompt with stable full donor chimerism. CONCLUSIONS This case report suggests that the adopted scheme is safe for reducing DSA levels and facilitating donor engraftment in patients scheduled for haplo-HSCT.

Abstract
In absence of available matched-related or unrelated donor (MUD), mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) and unrelated cord blood (UCB) are both considered to be suitable donors, with similar post-transplant overall survival. In most of these retrospective comparisons, HLA typing of adult donors was performed at eight loci. The aim of this study was to compare the outcome of patients transplanted from UCB (N = 64) with those transplanted from 9/10-HLA MMUD (N = 84) or 10/10-HLA MUD (N = 196). In multivariate analysis, UCB was associated with less Grade II-IV acute GVHD in comparison with MUD (aHR 1.97, 95% CI 1.19-3.27, P = 0.009) and MMUD transplants (aHR 1.79, 95% CI 1.02-3.15, P = 0.042), while the cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was not significantly different between the three groups. Overall survival (OS), non-relapse mortality, and relapse were not different between MMUD and UCB transplantation, whereas OS was impaired after UCB in comparison with MUD (aHR 0.65, 95% CI 0.43-0.99, P = 0.043). Factors also impacting OS were the donor/recipient CMV serostatus (Donor-/Recipient+ aHR 1.76, 95% CI 1.23-2.52, P = 0.002 compared with D-/R-), the donor/recipient gender combination (Female/Male versus other combinations aHR 1.57, 95% CI 1.11-2.22, P = 0.012) and disease risk (aHR 1.58, 95% CI 1.05-2.38, P = 0.027 for high vs. low risk disease). Our data confirm that UCB and 9/10-HLA MMUD are both relevant alternative options when no 10/10-HLA donor is available. Donor/recipient gender combination and CMV serostatus had a significant impact on survival and may be taken into account, along with donor type, in the setting of MMUD and UCB transplants.

Abstract
The development of a California-based induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) bank based on human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haplotype matching represents a significant challenge and a valuable opportunity for the advancement of regenerative medicine. However, previously published models of iPSC banks have neither addressed the admixed nature of populations like that of California nor evaluated the benefit to the population as a whole. We developed a new model for evaluating an iPSC haplobank based on demographic and immunogenetic characteristics reflecting California. The model evaluates haplolines or cell lines from donors homozygous for a single HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-DRB1 haplotype. We generated estimates of the percentage of the population matched under various combinations of haplolines derived from six ancestries (black/African American, American Indian, Asian/Pacific Islander, Hispanic, and white/not Hispanic) and data available from the U.S. Census Bureau, the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine, and the National Marrow Donor Program. The model included both cis (haplotype-level) and trans (genotype-level) matching between a modeled iPSC haplobank and the recipient population following resampling simulations. We showed that serving a majority (>50%) of a simulated California population through cis matching would require the creation, redundant storage, and maintenance of almost 207 different haplolines representing the top 60 most frequent haplotypes from each ancestry group. Allowances for trans matching reduced the haplobank to fewer than 141 haplolines found among the top 40 most frequent haplotypes. Finally, we showed that a model optimized, custom haplobank was able to serve a majority of the California population with fewer than 80 haplolines.

Abstract
PURPOSE This study investigated the differences between allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) patients receiving HSC from human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical donors (HID) and other donors that included HLA-matched sibling, matched unrelated, and unrelated umbilical cord blood donors in the 6 weeks after HSCT with respect to quality of life (QOL), psychological status, and physical function. METHODS The study included 126 patients (HID group, n = 100; other donor group, n = 26) who underwent allo-HSCT between July 2007 and December 2012. Patients were evaluated for health-related QOL using the Medical Outcome Study 36-item Short Form Health Survey. Psychological status was measured by Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Physical function was assessed using tests for handgrip strength, knee extensor strength, and the 6-min walk test. RESULTS After HSCT, the HID group showed significantly greater improvements in the general health subscale and Mental Component Summary (MCS) of QOL than the other donor group (P < 0.01). Multivariate analysis confirmed that complete remission and age were associated with changes in the general health subscale before and after HSCT (P < 0.05). With regard to physical function, the HID group showed significantly more decline than the other donor group with respect to handgrip strength and knee extensor muscle strength after HSCT (P < 0.05). Total corticosteroid dose was associated with decreased handgrip strength before and after HSCT (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The donor type affects QOL, psychological status, and physical function in allo-HSCT recipients; these findings may provide insights for customised rehabilitation strategies for HSCT recipients.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) arises within the bone marrow from a malignant hematopoietic progenitor cell. Though AML is still often fatal, cure rates overall continue to improve incrementally yet steadily, primarily for two reasons: first, insights into the pathogenesis of AML over the last several decades have led to the development of a relatively sophisticated classification scheme that allows more nuanced risk stratification to guide treatment choices; second, improvements in stem cell transplantation have allowed many more patients to take advantage of this highly effective therapeutic technique. Improvements in overall survival for patients with AML are expected to continue rising because of the anticipated introduction of targeted therapies into this treatment platform.

Abstract
We studied 459 consecutive patients with hematologic malignancies, median age 44 years (range, 15 to 71 years), who underwent transplantation with grafts from identical sibling donors (SIB; n = 176), matched unrelated donors (MUD; n = 43), mismatched unrelated donors (mmUD; n = 43), unrelated cord blood (UCB; n = 105) or HLA-haploidentical family donors (HAPLO; n = 92). Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine and methotrexate in the SIB recipients; antithymocyte globulin for the MUD, mmUD, and UCB recipients; and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, and mycophenolate in the HAPLO recipients. Conditioning regimens were mostly myeloablative (69%). Advanced disease phase was more frequent, but not significantly so, in the HAPLO and mmUD groups (P = .08). Acute GVHD grade II-IV was significantly less frequent in the HAPLO, UCB, and MUD groups (14% to 21%) compared with the SIB (31%) and mmUD (42%) groups (P < .001), and there was a trend toward less moderate-severe chronic GVHD in the HAPLO and UCB groups (P = .053). The proportion of patients off cyclosporine at 1 year ranged from 55% for the SIB group to 81% for the HAPLO group (P < .001). Transplantation-related mortality at 2 years was lower in the HAPLO and SIB groups (18% to 24%) compared with the MUD, mmUD, and UCB groups (33% to 35%; P = .10). Relapse rate was comparable in the 5 groups (P = .80). The 4-year actuarial survival was 45% in the SIB group, 43% in the MUD group, 40% in the mmUD group, 34% in the UCB group, and 52% in the HAPLO group (P = .10). In multivariate analysis, advanced disease was a negative predictor of survival (hazard ratio [HR], 2.4; P < .0001), together with a diagnosis of acute leukemia (HR, 1.8; P = .0001); HAPLO grafts were comparable to SIB (P = .80), whereas UCB had inferior survival (P = .03). In conclusion, unmanipulated haploidentical family donor transplants are an additional option for patients lacking a matched sibling donor.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Umbilical cord blood (UCB) stem cells allow the transplantation of partially human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched grafts and are a valuable resource for the treatment of hematologic malignancies and heritable hematologic, immunologic and metabolic diseases, especially when a compatible bone marrow donor is unavailable. The aim of this study was to determine how many ethnic groups in Iran are covered by the available UCB units based on HLA diversity. METHODS From 2009 until mid-2013, 4,981 (30.3%) of the 16,437 UCB samples collected met the storage criteria and were cryopreserved at a public cord blood bank (CBB) in Tehran, Iran. HLA-A, -B and -DRB1 were typed in 1,793 samples. RESULTS The mean volume of the cryopreserved samples was 81.25 ± 20.3 ml. The range of total nucleated cells per unit was 51 × 10(7)-107 × 10(7). The most common HLA alleles were HLA-A*2 (17%) and HLA-A*24 (15.6%), HLA-B*35 (16.8%) and HLA-B*51 (13.9%), and HLA-DRB1*11 (20%) and HLA-DRB1*15 (14%). The predominant haplotypes were HLA-A*24-B*35-DRB1*11 (2%), HLA-A*02-B*50-DR*07 (1.8%), and HLA-A*02-B*51-DRB1*11 (1.5%). CONCLUSIONS Based on the HLA-DRB1 profiles, the UCB units available at the Royan public UCB bank are a potentially adequate resource for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Iranian recipients belonging to particular ethnic groups. Regular educational programs to improve the public knowledge of UCB for transplantation can enhance the public CBB stocks for all Iranian ethnic groups in the future.

Abstract
A disadvantage of umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) is the delay in immune reconstitution, placing patients at increased risk for infections after transplant. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) in particular has been shown to cause significant morbidity in patients undergoing UCBT. Here, we comprehensively evaluate the development of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses to CMV in a cohort of patients that underwent double UCBT. Our findings demonstrate conclusively that a diverse polyclonal CMV-specific T-cell response derived from the UCB graft is primed to viral antigens as early as day 42 after UCBT, but these T cells fail to achieve sufficient numbers in vivo to control CMV reactivations. This is not due to an inherent inability of UCB-derived T cells to proliferate, as these T cells underwent rapid proliferation in vitro. The TCR diversity and antigen specificity of CMV-specific T cells remained remarkably stable in the first year after transplant, suggesting that later control of virus replication results from improved function of T cells primed early after transplant and not from de novo responses derived from later thymic emigrants. Ex vivo expansion and adoptive transfer of CMV-specific T cells isolated from UCBT recipients early after transplant could augment immunity to CMV.

Abstract
Omentum fat derived stem cells have emerged as an alternative and accessible therapeutic tool in recent years in contrast to the existing persuasive sources of stem cells, bone marrow and subcutaneous adipose tissue. However, there has been a scanty citation on human omentum fat derived stem cells. Furthermore, identification of specific cell surface markers among aforesaid sources is still controversial. In lieu of this existing perplexity, the current research work aims at signifying omentum fat as a ground-breaking source of stem cells by surface antigenic profiling of stem cell population. In this study, we examined and compared the profiling of cell surface antigenic expressions of hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, cell adhesion molecules and other unique markers such as ABCG2, ALDH and CD 117 in whole cell population of human omentum fat, subcutaneous fat and bone marrow. The phenotypic characterization through flowcytometry revealed the positive expressions of CD 34, CD 45, CD 133, HLADR, CD 90, CD 105, CD 73, CD 29, CD 13, CD 44, CD 54, CD 31, ALDH and CD 117 in all sources. The similarities between the phenotypic expressions of omentum fat derived stem cells to that of subcutaneous fat and bone marrow substantiates that identification of ultimate source for curative therapeutics is arduous to assess. Nevertheless, these results support the potential therapeutic application of omentum fat derived stem cells.
