Abstract
Bone marrow transplantation, now often known as haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), is a complex choreographed procedure used to treat both acquired and inherited disorders of the bone marrow. It has proven invaluable as therapy for haematological and immunological disorders, and more recently in the treatment of metabolic and enzyme disorders. As the number of performed transplants grows annually, and with patients enjoying improved survival, a knowledge of both early and late complications of HSCT is essential for respiratory trainees and physicians in practice. This article highlights the spectrum of respiratory complications, both infectious and non-infectious, the timeline of their likely occurrence, and the approaches used for diagnosis and treatment, keeping in mind that more than one entity may occur simultaneously. As respiratory issues are often a leading cause of short- and long-term morbidity, consideration of a combined haematology/respiratory clinic may prove useful in this patient population.

Abstract
Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), as chronic manifestation of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), is a debilitating complication leading to lung function deterioration in patients after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). In the present study, we evaluated BOS development risk in patients after receiving myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimens. We performed a retrospective analysis of patients undergoing allo-HCT, who received MAC with busulfan/cyclophosphamid (BuCy, n = 175) busulfan/fludarabin (FluBu4, n = 29) or thiotepa/busulfan/fludarabine (TBF MAC, n = 37). The prevalence of lung disease prior allo-HCT, smoking status, GvHD prophylaxis, HCT-CI score, EBMT risk score and GvHD incidence varied across the groups. The cumulative incidence of BOS using the NIH diagnosis consensus criteria at 2 years after allo-HCT was 8% in FluBu4, 23% in BuCy and 19% in TBF MAC (p = 0.07). In the multivariate analysis, we identified associated factors for time to BOS such as FEV1

Abstract
ABSTRACT Organizing pneumonia (OP) is a known noninfectious pulmonary complication following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and represents a significant risk factor for nonrelapse mortality in HCT recipients. Unlike bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, it is not universally acknowledged as a distinctive pulmonary manifestation of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) and, therefore, its diagnostic criteria and management approach are lacking. Given its shared similar clinical features and radiological and histologic findings to OP in the non-HCT population, the diagnostic approach and treatment strategy for OP in HCT recipients is largely adapted from the non-HCT population. In this article, we aim to enhance the understanding of OP within the context of cGVHD following HCT and distinguish its clinical features and treatment strategy from non-HCT counterparts, thereby reinforcing its recognition as a pulmonary manifestation of graft-versus-host disease. We will propose the diagnostic criteria and outline our approach in diagnosis and treatment strategy, highlighting the potential challenges that may arise in each process. Finally, we will discuss knowledge gaps in this field and identify the area of need for future research.

Abstract
Non-infectious pulmonary complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remain fatal. In particular, information regarding late-onset interstitial lung disease predominantly including organizing pneumonia and interstitial pneumonia (IP) is limited. A retrospective nationwide survey was conducted using data collected from the Japanese transplant outcome registry database from 2005 to 2010. This study focused on patients (n = 73) with IP diagnosed after day 90 post-HSCT. A total of 69 (94.5%) patients were treated with systemic steroids, and 34 (46.6%) experienced improvement. The presence of chronic graft-versus-host disease at the onset of IP was significantly associated with non-improvement of symptoms (odds ratio [OR] 0.35). At the time of last follow-up (median, 1471 days), 26 patients were alive. Of the 47 deaths, 32 (68%) were due to IP. The 3-year overall survival (OS) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) rates were 38.8% and 51.8%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, the predictive factors for OS were comorbidities at IP onset (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.19) and performance status (PS) score of 2-4 (HR 2.77). Furthermore, cytomegalovirus reactivation requiring early intervention (HR 2.04), PS score of 2-4 (HR 2.63), and comorbidities at IP onset (HR 2.90) were also significantly associated with increased risk of NRM.

Selection bias in follow-up studies of stem cell transplantation survivors: an experience within the Maastricht Observational study of late effects after Stem cell trAnsplantation (MOSA).

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for many malignant hematological and non-hematological diseases. Survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) are at risk of long-term health problems and reduced quality of life related to previous treatments. Many studies about these long-term effects have been conducted over the last decades. However, selection bias is a concern in long-term follow-up studies and little is known about the non-participating group. As part of the Maastricht Observational study of late effects after Stem cell trAnsplantation (MOSA), investigating long-term health effects by extensively phenotyping HCT survivors, we conducted a survey to characterise the non-participating group. This survey mostly focused on quality of life and physical complaints. The survey responders were generally older than the MOSA group, had more history of relapsed disease, and described their general health as bad or mediocre significantly more often than the MOSA group. Also, more deaths occurred in the group of non-participants between the start of study inclusion in 2015 and analysis of the survey results in 2021. This study suggests that a selection of higher functioning HCT survivors with a relatively better quality of life participated in this long-term follow-up study of stem cell transplantation survivors. These results could also impact the results of other long-term follow-up studies in cancer survivors, knowing that possibly an unhealthier population is missed in these studies and some long-term negative effects of treatments might be underestimated.Trial registration number: NL-48599.

Abstract
Pulmonary complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are important sources of morbidity and mortality. Improvements in infection-related complications have made noninfectious pulmonary complications an increasingly significant driver of transplantation-related mortality. Broadly, these complications can be characterized as either early or late complications, with idiopathic pneumonia syndrome and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome the most prevalent early and late complications, respectively. Outcomes with historical treatment consisting mainly of corticosteroids are often poor, highlighting the need for a deeper understanding of these complications' underlying disease biology to guide the adoption of novel therapies that are being increasingly used in the modern era.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is a potentially curative treatment for many hematological disorders, but is often complicated by relapse of the underlying disease, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and infectious complications. We conducted a retrospective analysis on patients undergoing allo-SCT from 1984 to 2018 to better understand how survival has changed longitudinally with therapeutic advancements made to mitigate these complications. Method: We analyzed data from 1943 consecutive patients who received allo-SCT. Patients were divided into groups (gps) based on the year (yr) of transplant. Primary endpoints were overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), and GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS). Secondary endpoints were the cumulative incidences of grade II−IV and grade III−IV acute GVHD (aGVHD), chronic GVHD (cGVHD), and non-relapse mortality (NRM). Results: Our study found statistically significant improvements in OS, PFS, and GRFS. Five-year PFS among the groups increased from 24% to 48% over the years. Five-year OS increased from 25% to 53%. Five-year GRFS significantly increased from 6% to 14%, but remained relatively unchanged from 2004 to 2018. Cumulative incidences of grade II−IV aGVHD increased since 2009 (p < 0.001). However, cumulative incidence of NRM decreased since 2004 (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Our data show improved OS, PFS, and GRFS post allo-SCT over decades. This may be attributed to advances in supportive care and treatments focused on mitigation of GVHD and relapse.

Abstract
Introduction Regardless corticosteroids are recommended for the treatment of organizing pneumonia there is limited evidence supporting this practice. Thus, we performed a systematic review of the literature on systemic corticosteroid treatment for organizing pneumonia. Methods A search was implemented in the PubMed database (Medline) for articles published in the last 20 years. Those studies with incomplete or insufficient data and case reports were excluded. We collected data including: demographics, clinical data, diagnostic procedures, aetiology, treatment regimen (drug, posology, duration, response) and evolution. Results A total of 135 publications were selected and finally 13 studies with 849 patients were included in the review: 12 retrospective observational studies and a single prospective observational study. Most of the patients were started on treatment with systemic corticosteroids - a total of 627 (30-100% depending on the series), but there was a great heterogeneity regarding drug, doses and duration. On those that started treatment, 226 (36%) presented a relapse of the disease during follow-up. Only one study provided information regarding treatment side-effects. Conclusion The findings of this systematic review show the low quality data supporting the use of corticosteroids for the treatment of organizing pneumonia. This highlights a need to undertake appropriately designed studies to investigate which is the most appropriate treatment regimen that trades off benefits and risks of prolonged corticosteroid administration.

Abstract
The goal of curing children and adults with sickle cell disease (SCD) is to maximize benefits and minimize intermediate and long-term adverse outcomes so that individuals can live an average life span with a high quality of life. While greater than 2000 individuals with SCD have been treated with curative therapy, systematic studies have not been performed to evaluate the long-term health effects of hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in this population. Individuals with SCD suffer progressive heart, lung, and kidney disease prior to curative therapy. In adults, these sequalae are associated with earlier death. In comparison, individuals who undergo HSCT for cancer are heavily pretreated with chemotherapy, resulting in potential acute and chronic heart, lung, and kidney disease. The long-term health effects on the heart, lung, and kidney for children and adults undergoing HSCT for cancer have been extensively investigated. These studies provide the best available data to extrapolate the possible late health effects after curative therapy for SCD. Future research is needed to evaluate whether HSCT abates, stabilizes, or exacerbates heart, lung, kidney, and other diseases in children and adults with SCD receiving myeloablative and non-myeloablative conditioning regimens for curative therapy.

Abstract
Pulmonary complications post hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) are associated with poor outcomes and require extensive management depending on the etiology. They usually present in the form of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, interstitial pneumonitis, or drug toxicity that can lead to fibrosis. Scant data exists regarding diffuse cystic lung disease following HSCT, and the existing literature only mentions mild cystic changes. We present the case of a 25-year-old man with stage IVB Hodgkin's lymphoma post allogeneic HSCT, who developed progressive traction bronchiectasis, with the appearance of extensive pulmonary cysts that followed significant fibrotic changes and discuss the possible etiologies behind it.

This study investigated the pre-transplant risk factors for developing NIPCs using Japanese transplant registry database entries from 2001 to 2009. Among 13,573 eligible patients, 535 experienced NIPCs (3.9%). Multivariate analysis identified high recipient age (60 + years: HR 1.85, P = 0.003), HLA mismatch (HR 1.61, P < 0.001), female to male HSCT (HR 1.54, P < 0.001), and unrelated bone marrow transplantation (UR-BMT) (HR 3.88, P < 0.001) as significantly associated with an increased risk of NIPCs. In contrast, a non-total body irradiation (TBI) regimen with reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) were associated with a decreased risk of NIPCs compared with a cyclophosphamide (CY) + TBI regimen (busulfan + CY: HR 0.67, P = 0.009, other non-TBI: HR 0.46, P < 0.001), fludarabine-based RIC (HR 0.52, P < 0.001), and other RIC (HR 0.42, P = 0.003). The mortality rate was significantly worse for patients with NIPCs than those without (HR 1.54, 71 P < 0.001). This large-scale retrospective study suggests that both allo-reactions to donor cells and conditioning regimen toxicity contributed to NIPCs following HSCT.

Abstract
Pulmonary complications are common in children following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and contribute to their morbidity and mortality. Early diagnosis is essential for management and prevention of progression of lung injury and damage. In many cases, diagnosis can be challenging and may require diagnostic imaging and more invasive testing such as bronchoscopy and lung biopsy. We report the case of a 12-year-old girl who developed recurrent episodes of acute respiratory failure requiring intensive care unit admission in the post-HCT phase and describe the diagnostic and multidisciplinary approach for her management. In addition, we review the diagnostic approach of pulmonary complications post-HCT and highlight the utility and risks of bronchoscopy and lung biopsy in these children.

The association of lung function changes with outcomes in children with bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Pediatr Pulmonol 2021; 56:3332-3341. [PMID: 34357700 DOI: 10.1002/ppul.25617] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2020] [Revised: 06/17/2021] [Accepted: 07/15/2021] [Indexed: 01/17/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) is a life-threatening respiratory complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although pulmonary function testing is crucial for monitoring BOS, little information exists on the association of these test results with outcomes in children with BOS. OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to determine the correlation between changes in lung function after BOS diagnosis and long-term outcomes. METHODS A total of 428 children underwent allogeneic HSCT from January 2006 to December 2017 at Asan Medical Center. Twenty-three (5.4%) were diagnosed with BOS after allogeneic HSCT, and their clinical data were reviewed. Twenty-one subjects underwent regular pulmonary function testing for 24 months after BOS diagnosis. RESULTS Among the 21 children with BOS, 8 died, 5 underwent lung transplantation (TPL), and 15 required oxygen (O2 ) therapy. The FEV1 % predicted (pred), FVC% pred, and FEF25%-75% pred were 37.8 ± 12.7% (mean ± SD), 62.2 ± 16.2%, and 16.4 ± 9.6%, respectively, at the time of BOS diagnosis. Changes in the FEV1 % pred were greater in the death and lung TPL groups (-24.8 ± 22.3%) than in the survival without lung TPL group (5.7 ± 21.8%) and greater in the O2 therapy (-19.4 ± 23.4%) group than in the group without O2 therapy (14.2 ± 20.0%) during the first 3 months after BOS diagnosis. CONCLUSION The change in FEV1 during the first 3 months after BOS diagnosis correlated with outcomes including survival, lung TPL, and O2 therapy. These results suggest that more active intervention in the first 3 months after BOS diagnosis may be needed to improve prognosis.

Abstract
Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an effective treatment for many malignant and nonmalignant diseases both in adults and children, but this procedure can be burdened by the so-called “late-onset non-infectious pulmonary complications” (LONIPCs), which are characterised by significant morbidity and mortality [1]. LONIPCs include different forms of inflammatory lung involvement, occurring after 100 days and within 2–3 years following HSCT [2]. Ruxolitinib could be considered as an option in the treatment of LONIPCs in children when other treatments are ineffective. Spirometry is a valuable tool for both diagnosis and follow-up of LONIPCs in children.https://bit.ly/3BmOYfb

Abstract
Permanent impairment (PI) of vital organs is one of the transplantation-related health problems affecting the quality of life and morbidity even in patients who do not develop graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT), but no data are available on PI of multiple organs. This retrospective study aimed to estimate a novel composite endpoint of PI-free, relapse-free survival (PIRFS) in 164 allo-HCT recipients. We defined PI as >26% to 30% impairment of the whole person in 6 vital organs using the whole person impairment rating. Conventional GVHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) and PIRFS at 5 years were 33.8% (95% confidence interval [CI], 26.5% to 41.3%) and 40.6% (95% CI, 32.6% to 48.4%), respectively. In the whole cohort, PIRFS was higher than GRFS at any time after allo-HCT. However, PIRFS was lower than GRFS after day 397 post-transplantation in patients who underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). In UCBT recipients, 5-year GRFS and PIRFS were 47.6% (95% CI, 34.3% to 59.7%) and 39.2% (95% CI, 26.6% to 51.5%), respectively. The cumulative incidence of PI after 5 years was 20.9% (95% CI, 13.7% to 29.0%) in patients surviving for ≥6 months without relapse. The multivariate analysis revealed that high disease risk (hazard ratio [HR], 1.91; 95% CI, 1.26 to 2.88; P < .01) and Karnofsky Performance Status score ≤90% at transplantation (HR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.14 to 2.63; P = .01) were correlated with the lower PIRFS, whereas UCBT (HR, 2.35; 95% CI, 1.11 to 4.99; P = .03), grade III-IV acute GVHD by day 180 (HR, 3.59; 95% CI, 1.04 to 12.4; P = .04), and thrombotic microangiopathy by day 180 (HR, 2.74; 95% CI, 1.10 to 6.87; P = .03) were significantly correlated with a higher incidence of PI. More than 20% of long-term survivors had PI. Our data suggest that PIRFS is a useful endpoint for assessing long-term transplantation success from a different perspective than has been established previously.

Abstract
Post-transplant thoracic air-leak syndrome (ALS) is rare but potentially life-threatening in patients receiving allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Nevertheless, papers on thoracic ALS are limited, and this complication remains largely unknown. We reviewed 423 adult patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT from 2003 to 2014. Risk factors, clinical features and survival for thoracic ALS were collected and analysed. Thirteen out of 423 patients (3.1%) developed post-transplant thoracic ALS, including two ALS patients in the early phase. The median age at HSCT was 33 years among 13 patients with thoracic ALS. Male patients were predominant (69%). The median onset time was 253 days (range: 40–2680) after HSCT. Multivariate analysis revealed that grade III–IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (p = 0.017), extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) (p = 0.019) and prior history of pulmonary invasive fungal infection (p = 0.007) were significant risk factors for thoracic ALS. In patients with cGVHD, those with thoracic ALS had a significantly worse survival than those without thoracic ALS (p = 0.04). Currently, published data analysing and exploring post-transplant thoracic ALS are limited. Our study employed a large patient cohort and determined the risk factors and clinical features for post-transplant thoracic ALS.

Cause of pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Respir Investig 2019; 57:321-324.

Abstract
Late-onset noninfectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs) are life-threatening complications after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a LONIPC, but its etiology remains elusive. Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) and alkylating agents used for conditioning have been considered possible causes of PPFE. Therefore, to investigate the primary cause of PPFE in allogeneic HSCT, we compared three secondary PPFE groups, namely, the post-lung-transplantation, post-autologous-HSCT or chemotherapy-alone, and post-allogeneic-HSCT groups, and focused on the coexistence of bronchiolitis obliterans (BO), a typical phenotype of cGVHD. We found a trend towards higher rates of PPFE with BO in the post-allogeneic-HSCT and post-lung-transplantation groups (71% and 90%, respectively) than in the post-autologous-HSCT or chemotherapy-alone group (25%). The incidence of BO following allogeneic HSCT is reportedly <10%. If PPFE in the post-allogeneic-HSCT group has no association with BO and is induced by alkylating agents rather than cGVHD, the incidence of BO in PPFE in this group is estimated to be <10%, which is inconsistent with our data (71%). Thus, this study suggests that PPFE following allogeneic HSCT could be mainly induced by cGVHD because the majority of cases are associated with BO, a typical phenotype of cGVHD.

Abstract
Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is characterized by frequent recurrence. Few studies have examined onset and recurrence patterns of COP after HSCT. We investigated the clinical features of COP after HSCT in a single-center retrospective study including 165 consecutive patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT. Eighteen patients (11%) developed COP after HSCT. Hypoxemia and pleural effusion at the onset of COP were significantly associated with umbilical cord blood transplantation (P = 0.002 and P = 0.002, respectively). Recurrence of COP was observed in six patients and significantly associated with the presence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD; P = 0.013) and stem cell sources other than umbilical cord blood (P = 0.038). Four patients with COP died of pulmonary failure after recurrence of COP. No patients who underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation experienced recurrence of COP. These findings suggest that the clinical features at the onset of COP may depend on stem cell sources. Moreover, both stem cell source and the absence or presence of cGVHD may affect COP recurrence, indicating the need to develop treatment strategies against COP according to stem cell source and risk of cGVHD.

Abstract
This article discusses the complications of hematopoietic stem cell transplantion (HSCT) that affect infections in HSCT recipients, with analogies to patients with hematologic malignancies. Mucositis, with mucosal barrier disruption, is common and increases the risk of gram-positive and anaerobic bacterial, and fungal infections, and can evolve to typhlitis. Engraftment syndrome; graft-versus-host disease, hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome; and posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome can affect the infectious potential either directly from organ dysfunction or indirectly from specific treatment. Pulmonary infections can predispose to life threatening complications including diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, idiopathic pulmonary syndrome, bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, and bronchiolitis obliterans with organizing pneumonia.

Abstract
The number of patients receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is rapidly rising worldwide. Despite substantial improvements in peri-transplant care, pulmonary complications resulting in respiratory failure remain a major contributor to morbidity and mortality in the post-transplant period, and represent a major barrier to the overall success of HSCT. Infectious complications include pneumonia due to bacteria, viruses, and fungi, and most commonly occur during neutropenia in the early post-transplant period. Non-infectious complications include idiopathic pneumonia syndrome, peri-engraftment respiratory distress syndrome, diffuse alveolar hemorrhage, pulmonary veno-occlusive disease, delayed pulmonary toxicity syndrome, cryptogenic organizing pneumonia, bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome, and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder. These complications have distinct clinical features and risk factors, occur at differing times following transplant, and contribute to morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Epidemiological data on late-onset noninfectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs) following allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are derived exclusively from retrospective studies and are conflicting. We aimed to evaluate prospectively the incidence, risk factors and outcomes for LONIPCs.All consecutive patients scheduled to receive allogeneic HSCT between 2006 and 2008 at a university teaching hospital in France were screened for inclusion in the study. Eligible patients were those surviving at day 100. Among 243 screened patients, 198 patients were included in the analysis. The median (interquartile range) follow-up was 72.3 (15.2-88.5) months. 55 LONIPCs were diagnosed in 43 patients. Bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (n=22) and interstitial lung disease (n=12) were the most common LONIPCs. At 36 months after inclusion, the estimated cumulative incidence of LONIPCs was 19.8% (95% CI 14.2-25.3%). The estimated median survival after the diagnosis of LONIPCs was 78.5 months (95% CI 20.0-not reached). Based on a multivariate Cox model, a history of chest irradiation anytime prior to HSCT, a history of pneumonia within 100 days post-HSCT and a low mean forced expiratory flow at 25-75% of forced vital capacity at day 100 were associated with the development of LONIPCs.Our data provide clues to identify patients at high risk of developing LONIPCs. These patients should be targeted for close monitoring to provide earlier LONIPC treatment or prophylactic treatment.

Abstract
PC are a main cause of death following HSCT in children. We aimed to evaluate early predictors of mortality in paediatric recipients with PCs. A retrospective observational study of 35 patients with 49 episodes of PI on chest radiography (of 124 patients) who had undergone HSCT at a tertiary university hospital between January 2011 and December 2012 was performed. During follow-up (median 26.1 months), 15 episodes led to death (30.6%). An aetiologic diagnosis was made by non-invasive tests in 24 episodes (49.0%) and by adding bronchoalveolar lavage and/or lung biopsy in 7 episodes with diagnostic yield (77.8%, P = .001). Thus, a specific diagnosis was obtained in 63.3% of the episodes. Aetiology identification and treatment modification after diagnosis did not decrease mortality (P = .057, P = .481). However, the number of organ dysfunctions at the beginning of PI was higher in the mortality group, compared to the survivor group (1.7 ± 1.2 vs 0.32 ± 0.59; P = .001). Hepatic dysfunction (OR, 11.145; 95% CI, 1.23 to 101.29; P = .032) and neutropaenia (OR, 10.558; 95% CI, 1.07 to 104.65; P = .044) were independently associated with risk of mortality. Therefore, hepatic dysfunction and neutropaenia are independent early predictors of mortality in HSCT recipients with PCs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Late-onset non-infectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs) contribute to higher morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Therefore, we investigated the risk factors of LONIPCs in pediatric patients. METHOD Between 2001 and 2011, 74 pediatric patients (range, 7 months to 22.7 years old; median 6.5 years old), including 29 with a primary immunodeficiency, underwent 80 allo-HSCTs at our institution. Sixty-seven patients who survived more than 3 months after allo-HSCT were analyzed retrospectively. The median follow-up period was 1 973 days (range, 126-5 145 days). RESULTS Nine patients (13.4%) developed LONIPCs between 90 and 3 578 days after allo-HSCT. A myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen and chronic GVHD were determined as significant risk factors of LONIPCs. None of 18 patients who received the reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen developed LONIPCs, although there was no difference in overall survival between the MAC and RIC regimen. Notably, two immunodeficient patients who received busulfan-based MAC regimen under 2 years old developed LONIPC with no history of chronic GVHD after 5 years and 10 years from SCT, respectively, suggesting the direct toxicity of busulfan. CONCLUSION Our study's findings indicate that the RIC regimen reduces the risk of LONIPCs in pediatric patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic cell transplantation is a curative treatment for a variety of hematologic diseases. Advances in transplantation technology have reduced early transplant-related mortality and expanded application of transplantation to older patients and to a wider variety of diseases. Management of late effects after transplantation is increasingly important for a growing number of long-term survivors that is estimated to be half a million worldwide. Many studies have shown that transplant survivors suffer from significant late effects that adversely affect morbidity, mortality, working status and quality of life. Late effects include diseases of the cardiovascular, pulmonary, and endocrine systems, dysfunction of the thyroid gland, gonads, liver and kidneys, infertility, iron overload, bone diseases, infection, solid cancer, and neuropsychological effects. The leading causes of late mortality include recurrent malignancy, lung diseases, infection, secondary cancers and chronic graft-versus-host disease. The aim of this review is to facilitate better care of adult transplant survivors by summarizing accumulated evidence, new insights, and practical information about individual late effects. Further research is needed to understand the biology of late effects allowing better prevention and treatment strategies to be developed.

Abstract
Aim To retrospectively assess if the modified lung function score (LFS) and/or its components, forced expiratory volume within the first second (FEV1) and diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide corrected for hemoglobin level (cDLCO), predict overall survival (OS) and chronic graft-vs-host-disease (cGvHD). Methods We evaluated 241 patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) at the University of Regensburg Transplant Center between June 1998 and July 2005 in relation to their LFS, FEV1 and cDLCO, before and after HSCT. Results Decreased OS after allo-HSCT was related to decreased pre-transplantation values of FEV1<60% (P = 0.040), cDLCO<50% of predicted value (P = 0.025), and LFS≥III (P = 0.037). It was also related to decreased FEV1 at 3 and 12 months after HSCT (P < 0.001 and P = 0.001, respectively) and increased LFS at 3 and 12 months after HSCT (P = 0.028 and P = 0.002, respectively), but not to changes of cDLCO. A higher incidence of cGvHD was related to decreased FEV1 at 6, 12, and 18 months (P = 0.069, P = 0.054, and P = 0.009, respectively) and increased LFS at 12 months (P = 0.002), but not to changes in cDLCO. Conclusions OS was related to both LFS and FEV1, but cGvHD had a stronger relation to FEV1 than to cDLCO or LFS. FEV1 alone offered more information on the outcome after allo-HSCT than LFS or cDLCO, suggesting limited value of LFS for the patients’ assessment after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Background and objective High‐dose chemotherapy (HDCT) followed by autologous haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is widely used in paediatric cancer patients, but few data about noninfectious interstitial lung disease (ILD) following this treatment are available. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the incidence, clinical features and risk factors of noninfectious ILD after HDCT in paediatric patients. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study of paediatric solid tumour patients who underwent HDCT and autologous HSCT between 1997 and 2012. ILD was diagnosed using clinical symptoms and radiography after excluding cardiac, renal and infectious causes. Risk factors were analysed using a Cox proportional hazard regression model. Results Three hundred and forty patients were enrolled, and the median age was 3 years (interquartile range 1–7). Eight patients (2.4%) were diagnosed with noninfectious ILD. The median duration of symptom onset was 30 months (range 7–74). Six (75%) of eight ILD patients died during the study period, even though steroids were administered for treatment. High‐dose cyclophosphamide use (hazard ratio = 11.37, 95% confidence interval = 1.38–93.32, P = 0.023) and sex (hazard ratio = 0.10, 95% confidence interval = 0.01–0.84, P = 0.034) were associated with late‐onset, noninfectious ILD upon multivariate analysis. Conclusion The incidence of noninfectious ILD after HDCT and autologous HSCT was not negligible, and the clinical features of ILD showed late onset and a poor prognosis. Female gender and high‐dose cyclophosphamide treatment may be risk factors for noninfectious ILD, but further studies with a larger number of ILD patients are suggested. We investigated noninfectious interstitial lung disease after autologous transplantation in 340 paediatric patients. The incidence was 2.4%. The symptom onset was late and the prognosis was poor. High‐dose cyclophosphamide and female gender were risk factors of interstitial lung disease.

Abstract
It is plausible that infections post-hematopoietic SCT play a role in the pathogenesis of BOS. A prospective study for children with history, questionnaire, examination, PFTs, and blood counts at one, three, six, nine, 12, 18, and 24 months post-SCT was conducted. Between September 2009 and September 2011 (n = 39), six developed BOS at 200 days (range 94-282), three patients had probable clinical respiratory infection, and all six had higher neutrophil count compared to non-BOS patients (4.7 vs. 2.4 at three months and 6.3 vs. 2.9 at six months ×10(9) /L, p = 0.03). Contribution of clinical and subclinical infection needs to be considered in the pathogenesis of BOS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over 3000 persons undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in Germany every year. Advances in allo-HSCT have prolonged the survival of treated patients but have concomitantly increased the risk of long-term complications that impair their quality of life. METHODS This literature review of the long-term sequelae of allo-HSCT is based on pertinent articles that were retrieved by a selective search of PubMed, and on current international guidelines. Case reports were excluded from consideration. RESULTS Hardly any randomized clinical trials have been performed to investigate the long-term outcome of allo-HSCT, but international consensus-based guidelines have been published. 50% to 70% of patients treated with allo-HSCT develop chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) within ten years of treatment. Transplant recipients are at higher risk of infection, including the reactivation of dormant herpes viruses; therefore, vaccination is recommended, as described in the current guidelines. Gonadal dysfunction arises in up to 92% of men and up to 99% of women; its frequency depends on the timing of transplantation, on radiotherapy, and on other factors. The medications that transplant recipients need to take can impair liver function, and transfusionassociated hemosiderosis can do so as well. 40% to 50% of patients suffer from lipid metabolic disturbances that increase the risk of myocardial infarction, peripheral arterial occlusive disease, and stroke. Their life expectancy is shorter than that of the overall population. CONCLUSION Measures should be taken to prevent the potential long-term complications of allo-HSCT. All patients who have been treated with allo-HSCT should receive individualized, risk-adapted, and multidisciplinary follow-up care, so that any complications that arise can be correctly diagnosed and appropriately treated. Long-term follow-up care could be improved by prospective clinical trials investigating the long-term sequelae of allo-HSCT, as well as by consistent, uniform documentation of these sequelae in supraregional data registries.

Abstract
Noninfectious pulmonary toxicity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) causes significant morbidity and mortality. Main presentations are idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS) in the acute setting and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) and cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP) at later time point. While COP responds well to corticosteroids, IPS and BOS often are treatment refractory. IPS, in most cases, is rapidly fatal, whereas BOS progresses over time, resulting in chronic respiratory failure, impaired quality of life, and eventually, death. Standard second-line treatments are currently lacking, and current approaches, such as augmented T cell-directed immunosuppression, B cell depletion, TNF blockade, extracorporeal photopheresis, and tyroskine kinase inhibitor therapy, are unsatisfactory with responses in only a subset of patients. Better understanding of underlying pathophysiology hopefully results in the identification of future targets for preventive and therapeutic strategies along with an emphasis on currently underutilized rehabilitative and supportive measures.

Abstract
RATIONALE Pulmonary complications are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. OBJECTIVES The relationship between pretransplant pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and development of post-transplant pulmonary complications in children was studied. METHODS This is a retrospective single institution cohort study of 410 patients who underwent pretransplant PFT and were monitored to 10 years posttransplant. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Pulmonary complications were observed in 174 (42%) patients. Children with pulmonary complications had significantly lower forced expiratory flow at 25-75% of vital capacity (P = 0.02) derived using conventional predicted equations for age, and the Global Lung Initiative-2012 predicted equations (P = 0.01). T-cell depletion (P = 0.001), acute grade 3-4 graft-versus-host disease (P = 0.008), and chronic graft-versus-host disease (P = 0.01) increased risk for pulmonary complications. Patients who had pulmonary complications had a 2.8-fold increased risk of mortality (P < 0.0001). The cumulative incidence of death due to pulmonary complications was significantly higher in children who had low lung volumes, FRC less than 50% (P = 0.005), TLC less than 50% (P = 0.0002), residual volume less than 50% (P = 0.007), and T-cell depletion (P = 0.01). Lower FEV1 (P = 0.0005), FVC (P = 0.0005), TLC (P < 0.0001), residual volume less than 50% (P = 0.01), and restrictive lung disease (P = 0.01) predicted worse overall survival. CONCLUSIONS Abnormal pretransplant PFT significantly increased risk after transplant. These patients may benefit from modified transplant strategies to reduce morbidity and mortality.

Abstract
Lung function decline is a well-recognized complication following allogeneic SCT (allo-SCT). Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) and in vivo T-cell depletion by administration of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) may have a protective role in the occurrence of late pulmonary complications. This retrospective study reported the evolution of lung function parameters within the first 2 years after allo-SCT in a population receiving the same RIC regimen that included fludarabine and i.v. BU in combination with low-dose ATG. The median follow-up was 35.2 months. With a median age of 59 years at the time of transplant, at 2 years, the cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality was as low as 9.7%. The cumulative incidence of relapse was 33%. At 2 years, the cumulative incidences of extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD) and of pulmonary cGVHD were 23.1% and 1.9%, respectively. The cumulative incidences of airflow obstruction and restrictive pattern were 3.8% and 9.6%, respectively. Moreover, forced expiratory volume (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC) and FEV1/FVC ratio remained stable from baseline up to 2 years post transplantation (P=0.26, P=0.27 and P=0.07, respectively). These results correspond favorably with the results obtained with other RIC regimens not incorporating ATG, and suggest that ATG may have a protective pulmonary role after allo-SCT.

Abstract
We herein report the case of a 68-year-old man with a history of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for acute myelocytic leukemia in whom graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) developed in the gastrointestinal tract and liver five months after transplantation. In that same period, chest computed tomography showed infiltration in both upper lungs. We performed bronchoscopy to clarify the GVHD and pulmonary infection. Nocardia nova was identified in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and we diagnosed the patient as having pulmonary nocardiosis. Because the differential diagnosis is important for the medical management of GVHD and pulmonary infection, performing bronchoscopy is essential for making an appropriate and rapid diagnosis.

Abstract
Non-infectious pulmonary complication (NIPC) is a serious adverse event for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) patients. NIPC includes both categories of lung complications: early onset idiopathic pneumonia syndrome (IPS) (onset <120 days) and late-onset non-infectious pulmonary complications (LONIPCs). Both categories have high mortality and morbidity rates, and critical treatments are not available. The renin-angiotensin system plays a critical role in pulmonary fibrosis. We, therefore, studied the relationship between angiotensin-converting enzyme gene (ACE) insertion/deletion polymorphisms and NIPC incidence in 149 consecutive allo-HSCT recipients. A total of 12.1 % (18/149) of these patients were diagnosed with NIPC (IPS, 3; LONIPCs, 15). Eight NIPC patients died from respiratory failure (mortality rate, 44.4 %). Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation was associated with a significantly higher incidence of NIPC than bone marrow transplantation and cord blood transplantation by univariate analysis (HR 3.13, P = 0.031). The serum ACE levels differed significantly according to the ACE insertion/deletion polymorphism. Patients with an ACE D/D genotype occurred at a significantly higher frequency among NIPC patients than I/D and I/I patients (HR 9.03, P < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis confirmed that NIPC is associated with ACE D/D genotypes (HR 8.8, P < 0.001). Our data support a role for the renin-angiotensin system in the pathogenesis of NIPC after allo-HSCT, and may represent a therapeutic target for complications.

Pre-transplant risk factors for cryptogenic organizing pneumonia/bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia after hematopoietic cell transplantation. Bone Marrow Transplant 2013; 48:1317-23.

Abstract
Cryptogenic organizing pneumonia (COP), previously known as bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP), is a significant complication after allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (HCT). However, the pathogenesis of this complication has not yet been elucidated. Therefore, we identified the pre-transplant risk factors for the development of COP/BOOP using the Japan transplant registry database between 2005 and 2009. Among 9550 eligible recipients, 193 experienced COP/BOOP (2%). HLA disparity (odds ratio (OR) 1.51, P=0.05), female-to-male HCT (OR 1.53, P=0.023), and PBSC transplant (OR 1.84, P=0.0076) were significantly associated with an increased risk of COP/BOOP. On the other hand, BU-based myeloablative conditioning (OR 0.52, P=0.033), or fludarabine-based reduced-intensity conditioning (OR 0.50, P=0.0011) in comparison with a TBI-based regimen and in vivo T-cell depletion (OR 0.46, P=0.055) were associated with a lower risk. Of the 193 patients with COP/BOOP, 77 died, including non-relapse death in 46 (59%). Pulmonary failure and fatal infection accounted for 41% (n=19) and 26% (n=12) of the non-relapse death. Allogeneic immunity and conditioning toxicity could be associated with COP/BOOP. Prospective studies are required to elucidate the true risk factors for COP/BOOP and to develop a prophylactic approach.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in children is accompanied by a transplant-related mortality of 10% to 30%, which is the result of lethal pulmonary complications (LPCs) in many cases. METHODS We retrospectively assessed prevalence and risk factors of LPC following 234 allogeneic HSCTs in 228 patients for malignant or nonmalignant diseases at a single institution. RESULTS Pulmonary complications (PCs) were observed following 81 of 234 transplants (35%). LPCs were observed in 4% of HSCT within 100 days and in 14% within 5 years after HSCT. Late PCs after day 100 were lethal in 56% (22/39) of the patients with PCs, who are 11% (22/202) of all evaluable patients still alive after day +100. Causes of LPC after day 100 were viral (10 cases), bacterial (1 case), fungal (5 cases) pulmonary infection, or noninfectious (6 cases) PCs. Abnormal pretransplant pulmonary function test was not associated with an increased risk of LPC. Children older than 10 years and those undergoing a second HSCT had an increased incidence of overall LPC. T-cell depletion and mismatched donor HSCT (P = 0.001), but not age, were associated with an increased risk of lethal viral pneumonia. CONCLUSIONS Transplant-related mortality up to 5 years after HSCT in children was associated with LPC in 14%. There were more late (>100 days) than early LPCs, predominantly due to infectious etiologies and affecting children >10 years of age.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in childhood is associated with severe pulmonary complications, but the pathophysiologic mechanisms remain unclear. Our aim was to evaluate the association of total and specific IgE, eosinophil cationic protein (ECP) and eosinophilia in HSCT recipients with pulmonary complications. We prospectively measured total and specific serum IgE, eosinophils, and ECP before and 28, 100, and 180 days after HSCT. We included 30 children (age 2-17 years) undergoing HSCT. Nine patients had a history of previous atopy without being associated with pulmonary complications after HSCT until day +360. Specific IgE levels showed a decline after HSCT, associated with the absence of allergy symptoms, suggesting a reduction of atopy. Elevated total serum IgE levels occurred in seven patients on day +28 after HSCT. This elevation did not coincide with allergy symptoms. ECP showed no correlation with total allergy symptoms, eosinophilia, IgE levels, or pulmonary complications. There was a significant correlation (p = 0.0367) between ECP levels on day +28 and concurrent acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Non-atopic serum ECP and IgE levels are elevated on day +28 after HSCT in children, with ECP showing a potential relation to acute GvHD.
