Graft CD8 T-cell-based risk system predicts survival in antithymocyte globulin-based myeloablative haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Clin Transl Immunology 2024; 13:e1484. [PMID: 38223258 PMCID: PMC10786671 DOI: 10.1002/cti2.1484] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/28/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 01/04/2024] [Indexed: 01/16/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective This study investigated the cellular composition of peripheral blood grafts for anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)-based myeloablative haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Methods Clinical characteristics were retrospectively evaluated in a training cohort with ATG-based myeloablative haplo-HSCT between January 2016 and February 2020 and confirmed in a validation cohort between March 2020 and June 2021. Results A higher dose of graft CD8+ T cells (≥ 0.85 × 108 kg-1) was significantly improved overall survival (OS; hazard ratio [HR], 1.750; P = 0.002) and disease-free survival (DFS; HR, 1.751; P < 0.001) in the training cohort, according to multivariate Cox regression analysis. Higher doses of mononuclear cells (MNCs) demonstrated better OS (HR, 1.517; P = 0.038) and DFS (HR, 1.532; P = 0.027). Older patient age (> 46 years), older donor age (≥ 50 years) and a higher refined disease risk index (rDRI) were also related to OS. A graft CD8+ T-cell risk system based on graft CD8+ T-cell dose, donor age and rDRI was constructed using a nomogram model after LASSO Cox regression analysis. It showed acceptable discrimination, with a C-index of 0.62 and 0.63, respectively. Graft CD8+ T-cell dose was negatively correlated with donor age (P < 0.001) and positively correlated with a higher lymphocyte percentage in the peripheral blood before mobilisation (P < 0.001). Conclusion A higher CD8+ T-cell dose in peripheral blood-derived grafts improves patients' survival with ATG-based myeloablative haplo-HSCT. Younger donors with higher lymphocyte percentages improved patients' survival with an intermediate rDRI risk.

Effect of donor age in patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation vary by conditioning intensity and recipient age. Am J Hematol 2024; 99:38-47. [PMID: 37850688 DOI: 10.1002/ajh.27126] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/27/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
We investigated the impact of donor age (younger [≤35 years] vs. older [>35 years]) after accounting for other non-HLA and HLA factors on outcomes of patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (n = 790). The effect differed by conditioning-partly related to the differences in the recipient age in myeloablative (MAC; median 46 years) versus reduced-intensity/non-myeloablative conditioning (RIC/NMA; median 61 years) groups. With MAC (n = 320), donor age had no impact on acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), but older donors were associated with a significantly higher risk of chronic GVHD (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.6, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.10-2.30, p = .02) independent of recipient age and other factors. Donor age had no impact on either relapse or non-relapse mortality (NRM). The impact of donor/recipient age on overall survival changed over time. Older donors were associated with significantly higher late overall mortality (>6 months) in younger recipients (≤ 50 years; HR: 2.2, 95% CI: 1.03-4.6, p = .04) but not older recipients. With RIC/NMA (n = 470), neither recipient's nor donor's age influenced the risk of GVHD. Donor age had no significant impact on the risk of relapse, but older donors were associated with a significantly higher risk of NRM (HR: 1.6, 95% CI: 1.02-2.6, p = .04) independent of recipient age. Older donor age was associated with significantly higher late overall mortality (>9 months) in older recipients (>50 years; HR: 1.66, 95% CI: 1.0-2.67; p = .049) but not in younger recipients. Donor selection based on donor age may require a tailored approach for a particular recipient.

Longitudinal Changes of Ocular Surface Microbiome in Patients Undergoing Hemopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT). J Clin Med 2023; 13:208. [PMID: 38202215 PMCID: PMC10779677 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13010208] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2023] [Revised: 12/04/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE To evaluate changes in the ocular surface microbiome (OSM) between pre- and post-haemopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in the same patient, and to assess the potential impact of these changes in ocular graft-versus-host disease (o)GVHD development. METHODS Lower fornix conjunctival swabs of 24 patients were obtained before and after HSCT and subjected to DNA extraction for amplification and sequencing of the V3-V4 regions of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene. The obtained reads were reconstructed, filtered, and clustered into zero-radius operational taxonomic units (zOTUs) at 97% identity level before taxonomic assignment, and biodiversity indexes were calculated. Transplant characteristics were recorded, and dry eye was diagnosed and staged 1-4 according to the Dry Eye WorkShop (DEWS) score. RESULTS No significant difference in OSM alpha diversity between pre- and post-transplant was found. A significant difference in beta diversity was observed between patients with a DEWS score of 1 versus 3 (p = 0.035). Increased corneal damage between pre- and post-HSCT was significantly associated with a decrease in alpha diversity. The changes in OSM were not associated with oGVHD, nor with any transplant parameter. CONCLUSIONS This preliminary study is the first study to analyse changes in the OSM before and after HSCT longitudinally. No trend in OSM biodiversity, microbial profile, or overall composition changes before and after HSCT was significant or associated with oGVHD onset. The great variability in the observed OSM profiles seems to suggest the absence of a patient-specific OSM "signature".

Abstract
Allogeneic haploidentical HSCT (haplo-HSCT) and unrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation(UCBT)are used in patients lacking HLA-identical sibling or unrelated donors. With myeloablative condition and GVHD prophylaxis of using low-dose ATG and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY), we conducted a prospective clinical trial. Of eligible 122 patients from February 2015 to December 2019 in the study, 113 patients were involved. Forty-eight patients were in the group of sequential haplo-cord transplantation (haplo-cord HSCT), and 65 patients were in the group of single UCBT. The primary endpoint of 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) was no statistical difference between groups (64.1 vs. 56.5%), p>0.05. The analysis of subgroup patients with relapsed/refractory showed haplo-cord HSCT was associated with better OS (HR 0.348, 95% CI, 0.175–0.691; p=0.0025), DFS (HR 0.402, 95% CI, 0.208–0.779; p=0.0069), and GRFS (HR 0.235, 95% CI, 0.120–0.457, p<0.0001) compared to the single cord group. The 2-year’s probability in OS, DFS, and GRFS was 64.9 vs. 31.6%, 64.5 vs. 31.6%, and 60.8 vs. 15.0% in the haplo-cord group and single cord group, respectively. III-IV acute GVHD 8.3 vs. 6.2%, chronic GVHD 25.8 vs. 13.7%, and extensive chronic GVHD 5.3 vs. 1.8% were shown in corresponding group, p>0.05. The patients engrafted persistently with UCB showed better survival outcomes. Our sequential Haplo-cord HSCT with ATG/PTCY improved the survival of patients and might be an alternative transplantation approach for patients with relapsed/refractory hematologic malignancies.

Abstract
Stable and sustainable stem cell sources for stem cell‐based therapies are scarce and a key bottleneck for clinical applications. The regenerative potential of stem cells is usually attributed to several allogeneic or even autologous donor‐related factors. Genetic background and epigenetic variations in different individuals may significantly affect the functional heterogeneity of stem cells. Particularly, single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been implicated in diseases with monogenetic or multifactorial and complex genetic etiologies. However, the possible effects of individual SNPs on donor stem cells remain far from fully elucidated. In this Perspective, we will discuss the roles played by donor genetic traits in the functional heterogeneity of induced pluripotent stem cells, mesenchymal stem cells, and hematopoietic stem cells and their implications for regenerative medicine and therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and relapse remain majobstacles ftreatment success in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the present study, we evaluated the immune cell profile of the graft to outcome after HSCT. STUDY DESIGN AND METHOD Flow cytometry data of graft cell subsets [CD34+ , CD3+ , CD19+ , CD4+ , CD8+ , CD3-CD56+ CD16+ , CD4+ CD127low CD25high ] from G-CSF primed peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) donors was collected retrospectively from 299 patients with hematological malignancies undergoing HSCT between 2006 and 2013. The association to overall survival, transplant-related mortality (TRM), GVHD and probability of relapse was analyzed. Patients outcome from HLA-identical sibling (Sib) (n = 97) and unrelated donors (URD) (n = 202) were analyzed separately as all URD patients received anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG). RESULTS Five-year overall survival was similar in the two cohorts (68% (Sib) vs 65% (URD)). The relapse incidence was significantly lower in the Sib cohort (24% vs 35%, P = 0.04). Multivariate analysis in the URD group revealed an association between a higher CD8+ dose and less relapse (HR, 0.94; 95%CI, 0.90-0.98; P = 0.006) as well as an association between higher CD34+ dose and both higher TRM (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.02-1.20; P = 0.02) and relapse (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.01-1.17; P = 0.025). The Sib analysis showed an association between a higher graft CD19+ dose and more severe acute GVHD (HR, 1,09; 95%CI, 1.03-1.15; P = 0.003) and TRM (HR, 1.09; 95%CI, 1.01-1.17; P = 0.036). In addition, a higher CD4+ graft content was associated to an increased risk for chronic GVHD (HR, 1.02; 95%CI 1.00-1.04; P = 0.06). CONCLUSION These data indicate an importance of PBSC dongraft composition in patients with a hematological malignancy.

Abstract
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is a curable method for the treatment of hematological malignancies. In the past two decades, the establishment of haploidentical transplant modalities make “everyone has a donor” become a reality. However, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and relapse remain the major two causes of death either in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched transplant or haploidentical transplant settings, both of which restrict the improvement of transplant outcomes. Preclinical mice model showed that both donor-derived T cells and natural killer (NK) cells play important role in the pathogenesis of GVHD and the effects of graft-versus-leukemia (GVL). Hence, understanding the immune mechanisms of GVHD and GVL would provide potential strategies for the control of leukemia relapse without aggravating GVHD. The purpose of the current review is to summarize the biology of GVHD and GVL responses in preclinical models and to discuss potential novel therapeutic strategies to reduce the relapse rate after allo-SCT. We will also review the approaches, including optimal donor selection and, conditioning regimens, donor lymphocyte infusion, BCR/ABL-specific CTL, and chimeric antigen receptor-modified T cells, which have been successfully used in the clinic to enhance and preserve anti-leukemia activity, especially GVL effects, without aggravating GVHD or alleviate GVHD.

Abstract
Allogenic hematopoietic progenitor cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is an established treatment for many diseases. Stem cells may be obtained from different sources: mobilized peripheral blood stem cells, bone marrow, and umbilical cord blood. The progress in transplantation procedures, the establishment of experienced transplant centres, and the creation of unrelated adult donor registries and cord blood banks gave those without an human leucocyte antigen- (HLA-) identical sibling donor the opportunity to find a donor and cord blood units worldwide. HSCT imposes operative cautions so that the entire donation/transplantation procedure is safe for both donors and recipients; it carries with it significant clinical, moral, and ethical concerns, mostly when donors are minors. The following points have been stressed: the donation should be excluded when excessive risks for the donor are reasonable, donors must receive an accurate information regarding eventual adverse events and health burden for the donors themselves, a valid consent is required, and the recipient's risks must be outweighed by the expected benefits. The issue of conflict of interest, when the same physician has the responsibility for both donor selection and recipient care, is highlighted as well as the need of an adequate insurance protection for all the parties involved.
