The Role of Pre-existing Anti-HLA Antibodies in Severe Aplastic Anemia Patients Undergoing Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:902.e1-902.e11. [PMID: 38740139 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.05.008] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/03/2024] [Revised: 04/15/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
The objective is to underscore the significance of pre-existing anti-HLA Abs in the context of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for SAA. A retrospective analysis was conducted using data from 244 SAA patients who underwent allo-HSCT between January 2016 and October 2022. The patient cohort was divided into 2 groups based on the presence of pre-existing anti-HLA Abs. Out of 244 SAA patients, 82 were tested positive for anti-HLA Abs. Seventeen patients were tested with DSA in haplo-HSCT. We found that the presence of pre-existing anti-HLA Abs did not influence neutrophil engraftment (P = .600); however, it resulted in delayed platelet recovery (P = .006). Comparatively, patients with anti-HLA Abs demonstrated lower overall survival (OS) compared to their counter parts without anti-HLA Abs (P = .001), with a correspondingly elevated transplant-related mortality (TRM) in the former group (P = .002). Multivariate analysis established pre-existing anti-HLA Abs as an independent risk factor for impaired platelet recovery (HR 1.67, 95% CI 1.16 to 2.44, P = .006) and OS (HR 2.19, 95% CI 1.03 to 4.67, P = .043). However, there were no differences between DSA and non-DSA patients after desensitization in haplo-HSCT. In summary, the presence of pre-existing anti-HLA Abs in SAA patients undergoing allo-HSCT appears to detrimentally affect platelet recovery and overall prognosis.

Effective desensitization for a strong donor-specific HLA antibody in a case of HLA-mismatched allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. HLA 2019; 94:307-311. [PMID: 31314169 DOI: 10.1111/tan.13627] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/17/2019] [Revised: 07/02/2019] [Accepted: 07/12/2019] [Indexed: 11/29/2022]
Abstract
We describe a unique ABO compatible and 9/10 HLA-matched case of successful allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) after effective desensitization of a strong anti-HLA-A24 donor-specific antibody (DSA) with mean fluorescence intensity of approximately 18 000. Due to absence of a suitable matched unrelated donor the patient sibling was considered the best available donor, and it was decided to desensitize patient prior to transplant. The strength of HLA-A24 DSA slowly decreased over the course of treatment, necessitating a total of 23 sessions of therapeutic plasma exchange in order to bring the DSA strength to undetectable levels, followed by a successful transplant. In summary, the outcome of this case shows effective application of desensitization treatment to remove strong DSA in HCT patients.
