Comparison of Melphalan Dose in Patients with Myelodysplastic Syndrome Undergoing Allogeneic Transplantation with Reduced-Intensity Conditioning. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:510.e1-510.e10. [PMID: 38331193 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.01.083] [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: 10/21/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 01/31/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
The present study compared lower-dose melphalan (80 mg/m2, FM80) and higher-dose melphalan (140 mg/m2, FM140) when administering reduced-intensity conditioning with fludarabine in adult patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We retrospectively analyzed nationwide registry data (2006 to 2019) and compared transplant outcomes between the 2 groups. Ninety-two patients (median age, 61 [interquartile range, 56 to 65] years) were assigned to the FM80 and FM140 groups by propensity score matching. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate in the FM140 group (63.9%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 52.9% to 73.0%) was significantly higher than that in the FM80 group (54.2%; 95% CI, 37.1% to 52.1%) (P = .038). The FM140 group had a nonsignificantly (P = .095) lower 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (15.5%; 95% CI, 8.9% to 23.8% versus 26.0%; 95% CI, 17.3% to 35.5%). The 3-year cumulative incidences of nonrelapse mortality were 22.3% (95% CI, 14.1% to 31.8%) and 23.7% (95% CI, 15.4% to 33.2%) in the FM80 and FM140 groups, respectively (P = .49). The beneficial effect of FM140 was more evident in patients with a poor cytogenetic risk. Our findings suggest the superiority of FM140 in patients with MDS undergoing allo-HSCT, especially in high-risk patients.

Abstract
Conditioning regimens play a crucial role in preventing relapse of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). In early times, myeloablative conditioning was used exclusively, but it was associated with significant toxicity. However, the advent of reduced-intensity conditioning has allowed allogeneic HCT to be performed more safely, leading to an expansion of our choices for conditioning regimens. As the transplantation methods have become highly diversified, it is reasonable to determine an optimal conditioning regimen in consideration of patient-, disease-, and transplantation-related factors. In this context, large-scale registry-based studies provide real-world data to allow for a detailed evaluation of the utility of individual conditioning regimens in specific clinical settings. The Japanese Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy has been conducting a nationwide survey for HCT since 1993 that currently covers >99% of all the transplantation centers nationwide, and >1,000 allogeneic HCTs performed for adults with AML are registered per year. We have been using the registry data to implement a number of studies focusing on adults with AML, and the large number of patients registered consecutively from nearly all transplantation centers nationwide represent real-world practice in Japan. This article reviews and discusses the results obtained from our registry-based studies pertaining to various conditioning regimens.

Improved survival after single-unit cord blood transplantation using fludarabine and melphalan-based reduced-intensity conditioning for malignant lymphoma: impact of melphalan dose and graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with mycophenolate mofetil. Ann Hematol 2022; 101:2743-2757.

Abstract
We evaluated 413 adult patients with lymphoma who underwent unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) with fludarabine and melphalan (FM)-based reduced-intensity conditioning between 2002 and 2017 to investigate longitudinal changes in outcomes and the optimal melphalan dose and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen. Outcomes were compared between FM80/100 (melphalan dose: 80 or 100 mg/m2) and FM140 (melphalan dose: 140 mg/m2), as well as between calcineurin inhibitor (CNI) plus methotrexate (MTX), CNI plus mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), and CNI alone. The 3-year overall survival (OS) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) rates improved over time (OS: 27% in 2000s vs. 42% in 2010s, p < 0.001; NRM: 43% in 2000s vs. 26% in 2010s, p < 0.001). Multivariable analysis showed that in the 2000s, melphalan dose and GVHD prophylaxis regimen did not affect any outcomes. In the 2010s, FM80/100 (vs. FM140) related to better OS (hazard ratio [HR] 0.62, p = 0.01) and NRM (HR 0.52, p = 0.016). MTX + CNI and CNI alone (vs. CNI + MMF) related to worse OS (CNI + MTX, HR 2.01, p < 0.001; CNI alone, HR 2.65, p < 0.001) and relapse/progression (CNI + MTX, HR 2.40, p < 0.001; CNI alone, HR 2.13, p = 0.023). In recent years, the use of FM80/100 and CNI + MMF significantly reduced the risk of NRM and relapse/progression, respectively, and resulted in better OS after UCBT for lymphoma.

Retrospective comparison of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation following reduced-intensity conditioning with fludarabine/low-dose melphalan plus 4 Gy TBI versus fludarabine/ busulfan plus 4 Gy TBI. Int J Hematol 2021; 115:244-254. [PMID: 34652634 DOI: 10.1007/s12185-021-03233-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/28/2021] [Revised: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 10/05/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
Fludarabine with intravenous busulfan (6.4 mg/kg; FB2) and fludarabine with intermediate-dose melphalan (140 mg/m2; FM140) are the most widely used reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. FM140 generally has a lower relapse rate and higher non-relapse mortality (NRM), resulting in overall survival (OS) comparable to that seen with FB2. To evaluate the effect of reducing the melphalan dose, we retrospectively compared transplant outcomes in 156 patients who received FB2 (n = 103) or FM80 (n = 53) at our center (median age: 63 years; range 27-72 years). All patients received 4-Gy total body irradiation. Three-year OS, the cumulative incidence of relapse, and NRM were comparable between groups (FB2 vs. FM80, 58% vs. 47%, p = 0.24; 30% vs. 36%, p = 0.57; 17% vs. 21%, p = 0.44, respectively). There was no significant difference in the cumulative incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) at day 100, chronic GVHD at 3 years, or the 3-year GVHD-free/relapse-free survival rate. In the high-risk disease group, patients receiving FM80 tended to have lower 3-year OS (FB2 vs. FM80, 48% vs. 17%, p = 0.06). In summary, transplant outcomes following FB2 or FM80 were comparable except in patients with high-risk disease.
