Outcomes in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Congenital Amegakaryocytic Thrombocytopenia. Transplant Cell Ther 2022; 28:101.e1-101.e6. [PMID: 34670170 PMCID: PMC8816844 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2021.10.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2021] [Revised: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/10/2021] [Indexed: 02/03/2023]
Abstract
Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) is a rare, inherited bone marrow failure syndrome. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is considered a curative treatment option, but existing descriptions of patient and transplant characteristics and outcomes after related and unrelated donor HSCT are sparse. We describe outcomes after HSCT for congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT; n = 86) from 2000 to 2018. We conducted an analysis of data collected by the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research on patients with CAMT receiving therapeutic allogeneic HSCT. The predominant donor type was HLA-matched or mismatched unrelated donors (n = 58, 67%). The remaining included HLA-matched sibling (n = 23, 27%) and HLA-mismatched relative (n = 5, 6%). The predominant graft types were bone marrow (n = 53, 62%) and cord blood (n = 25, 29%). The median age at transplantation was 3 years, with 82 of 86 patients being transplanted aged ≤10 years. The 5-year graft failure-free and overall survival were 83% (95% confidence interval [CI], 74-90) and 86% (95% CI, 78-93), respectively. An examination for risk factors confirmed mortality was higher after HLA-mismatched relative and mismatched unrelated donor HSCT compared to HLA-matched sibling and matched unrelated donor HSCT (hazard ratio 3.52, P = .04; 75% versus 93%). The 1-year incidence of graft failure was 19% after HLA-mismatched HSCT (n = 32) compared to 7% after HLA-matched HSCT (n = 54, P = .15). Day-100 grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease was 13%, 26%, and 30% after HLA-matched sibling, HLA-matched and mismatched unrelated donor HSCT. The 5-year incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease was 33% with 24 of 28 patients having received grafts from HLA-matched (n = 13) and mismatched unrelated (n = 11) donors. Although HLA-matched donors are preferred, HLA-mismatched donors also extend survival for CAMT.

Oved JH, Shah YB, Venella K, Paessler ME, Olson TS. Non-myeloablative conditioning is sufficient to achieve complete donor myeloid chimerism following matched sibling donor bone marrow transplant for myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene ( MPL) mutation-driven congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia: Case report. Front Pediatr 2022; 10:903872. [PMID: 35967582 PMCID: PMC9366100 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2022.903872] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/24/2022] [Accepted: 06/29/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) is a rare platelet production disorder caused mainly by loss of function biallelic mutations in myeloproliferative leukemia virus oncogene (MPL), the gene encoding the thrombopoietin receptor (TPOR). Patients with MPL-mutant CAMT are not only at risk for life-threatening bleeding events, but many affected individuals will also ultimately develop bone marrow aplasia owing to the absence of thrombopoietin/TPOR signaling required for maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells. Curative allogeneic stem cell transplant for patients with CAMT has historically used myeloablative conditioning; however, given the inherent stem cell defect in MPL-mutant CAMT, a less intensive regimen may prove equally effective with reduced morbidity, particularly in patients with evolving aplasia. METHODS We report the case of a 2-year-old boy with MPL-mutant CAMT and bone marrow hypocellularity who underwent matched sibling donor bone marrow transplant (MSD-BMT) using a non-myeloablative regimen consisting of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and antithymocyte globulin (ATG). RESULTS The patient achieved rapid trilinear engraftment and resolution of thrombocytopenia. While initial myeloid donor chimerism was mixed (88% donor), due to the competitive advantage of donor hematopoietic cells, myeloid chimerism increased to 100% by 4 months post-transplant. Donor chimerism and blood counts remained stable through 1-year post-transplant. CONCLUSION This experience suggests that non-myeloablative conditioning is a suitable approach for patients with MPL-mutant CAMT undergoing MSD-BMT and is associated with reduced risks of conditioning-related toxicity compared to traditional myeloablative regimens.

Abstract
Nonmalignant hematologic disorders (NMHD) of childhood comprise a variety of disorders, including acquired severe aplastic anemia and inherited marrow failure syndromes. Patients with high-risk NMHD without matched related donors fare poorly with allogeneic hematopoietic alternative donor stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and are at high risk for developing graft-versus-host disease following unmodified grafts. The authors retrospectively analyzed data on 18 patients affected by NMHD, lacking a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling donor, who underwent an alternative donor allo-HSCT at their institution between April 2005 and May 2013. Fifty percent of the patients had received prior immunosuppressive therapy, 72% had a history of infections, and 56% were transfusion dependent at the time of transplant. Cytoreduction included a combination of 3 of 5 agents: fludarabine, melphalan, thiotepa, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide. Grafts were T-cell depleted. All evaluable patients engrafted. Five died of transplant complications. The cumulative incidence of graft-versus-host disease was 6%. No patient had recurrence of disease. Five-year overall survival was 77%. Age at transplant <6 years was strongly associated with better survival. Based on these results, transplant with chemotherapy-only cytoreductive regimens and T-cell-depleted stem cell transplants could be recommended for patients with high-risk NMHD, especially at a younger age.

Abstract
Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia (CAMT) is a rare inherited disorder that presents with thrombocytopenia in infancy and evolves into bone marrow failure over time. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant remains the only curative treatment option. We report our experience with identical twin sisters diagnosed with CAMT and treated successfully with matched unrelated donor bone marrow transplants. Before the transplant, 1 twin developed pancytopenia, whereas the other had a relatively benign clinical course. Choice of conditioning regimens was based on their pretransplant bone marrow cellularity and presence or absence of panyhypoplasia. Both twins tolerated the procedure well with no significant complications.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The role of hematopoietic cell transplantation in non-malignant disorders has increased exponentially with the recognition that multiple diseases can be controlled or cured if engrafted with donor-derived cells. This review provides an overview of advances made in alternative donor transplants for nonmalignant disorders. RECENT FINDINGS Stem cell sources, novel transplant methods, and sophisticated supportive care have simultaneously made giant strides toward improving the safety and efficacy of hematopoietic cell transplantation. This has led to the utilization of marrow, cord, peripheral blood stem cell and haploidentical stem cell sources, and novel reduced toxicity or reduced intensity conditioning regimens to transplant non-malignant disorders such as immune dysfunctions, marrow failure syndromes, metabolic disorders and hemoglobinopathies. Transplant complications such as graft rejection, infections, and graft versus host disease are better combated in this modern era of medicine, achieving better survival with decreased late effects. These aspects of transplant for non-malignant disorders are discussed. SUMMARY This review presents the progress made in the realm of hematopoietic cell transplantation for non-malignant disorders. It advocates the consideration of alternative donor transplants in the absence of human leukocyte antigen matched siblings when indicated by disease severity. The ultimate goal is to provide curative transplant options for more patients that can benefit from this intervention, prior to detrimental outcomes.

Abstract
CAMT is a bone marrow failure syndrome that usually presents with isolated thrombocytopenia soon after birth. HSCT is curative, and MAC is associated with increased transplant-related morbidity and mortality, especially in the unrelated setting. We used a RIC regimen with alemtuzumab, fludarabine, and melphalan in a seven-month-old patient with CAMT who underwent a MUD HSCT. The transplant was well tolerated with few complications. Neutrophil and platelet engraftment occurred on day +12 and +29, respectively, and she had 100% donor chimerisms on days +19.
