Monitoring of adenoviremia in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Is it alone sufficient to predict adenoviral disease? Pediatr Transplant 2024; 28:e14696. [PMID: 38317343 DOI: 10.1111/petr.14696] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 10/23/2023] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND We aimed to evaluate our pediatric HSCT recipients routinely monitored for adenoviremia and to determine the adequacy of this monitoring in predicting adenoviral disease (AD). METHODS A retrospective cohort of patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT between January 2021 and August 2022, and routinely monitored for adenoviremia by real-time PCR was included in our survey. Demographic and clinical data of the patients were recorded. Incidence rates, risk factors, and mortality rates related to adenoviremia, and AD were analyzed. RESULTS Among 104 HSCTs performed in 94 patients adenovirus (AdV) was revealed in 27 (26%) episodes and adenoviremia in 18 (17.3%) HSCT episodes. AD without adenoviremia developed in nine episodes (8.6%). Disseminated disease was significantly more frequently detected in episodes with adenoviremia (p = .008). GVHD was independent risk factor for AdV detection (OR: 8.6, 95% CI: 2.03-33.7, p = .001). Viremia developed within a shorter time interval after HSCT in isolated episodes of adenoviremia compared to those with concomitant AD (p = .006). Initial and peak viral loads were significantly higher in adenoviremia with AD (p < .001). Mortality was higher in the AdV-detected episodes (p < .001) than in the AdV-undetected episodes. AdV-related mortality was found to be 22.2%. Adenoviremia increased the risk of mortality (OR: 1.2, 95% CI: 0.22-1.33, p = .01). CONCLUSIONS Adenoviremia monitoring is an important process in the detection of AD. Since some patients may develop AD without accompanying by adenoviremia, monitoring for AdV in blood samples should be supported with other monitoring methods in order to evaluate the probable involvement of different organs or systems.

Molecular epidemiology and phylogenetic analyses of human adenovirus in pediatric patients with acute respiratory infections from Hangzhou during COVID-19 pandemic. Front Pediatr 2023; 11:1237074. [PMID: 37614906 PMCID: PMC10442704 DOI: 10.3389/fped.2023.1237074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/08/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 08/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Acute Respiratory Infections (ARIs) are a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Human Adenovirus (HAdV), responsible for 5%-10% of children's ARIs, is one of the most prevalent pathogens. Our study aimed to analyze the epidemiology and phylogenesis of HAdV in pediatric patients with ARIs in Hangzhou during the COVID-19 pandemic. Method Between November 2020 and March 2021, we collected 1,442 nasopharyngeal swabs from children with ARIs at Children's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine. Epidemiological statistics, phylogenetic and amino acid (AA) mutation analysis were conducted. Results Our findings revealed that 386 (26.77%) samples tested positive for HAdV, with the highest rate in children aged 6-18 years and the lowest in children aged 0-1 year, indicating a different age preference of HAdV compared with pre-pandemic period. Outpatients had a significantly higher positive rate than inpatients. Moreover, patients with HAdV-coinfection exhibited more severe clinical symptoms than those with HAdV-single infection. Our phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that species HAdV-C (type 1, 2, 6) were the predominant circulating strains in Hangzhou during the COVID-19 pandemic. Further AA mutation analysis identified seventeen mutations of particular concern for biological characterization. Conclusion In conclusion, our study provides valuable epidemiological and molecular data that will aid in epidemiological surveillance, antiviral therapies and the development of specific vaccine types, leading to improve public health.

Abstract
We analyzed a Japanese registry database to elucidate the incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of adenovirus (AdV) disease after autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in contemporary real-world patients. We evaluated the cumulative incidence of AdV disease, as well as risk factors, survival, and treatment details, among 25 233 patients who underwent autologous HCT and 48 380 patients who underwent allogeneic HCT between 2005 and 2019. The 1-year cumulative incidences of AdV disease after autologous and allogeneic HCT were 0.18% and 1.52%, respectively, in children, and 0.49% and 2.99%, respectively, in adults. Among patients with AdV disease, renourinary infection was the most common manifestation, and viremia or disseminated disease occurred in 6% of those after autologous HCT and 19% of those after allogeneic HCT. In multivariate analysis, age ≥50 years and lymphoma were associated with AdV disease after autologous HCT, while patients age ≥50 years, male patients, lymphoma, HCT-specific comorbidity index ≥3, human leukocyte antigen-mismatched or haploidentical donors, cord blood, in vivo T-cell depletion, HCT from 2005 to 2009, acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and chronic GVHD were associated with AdV disease after allogeneic HCT. The 1-year probabilities of survival after disease diagnosis were 65% in autologous HCT and 44% in allogeneic HCT. Regardless of the AdV disease burden, there was an increased risk of mortality after both autologous and allogeneic HCT. The most commonly used antiviral agents were cidofovir and vidarabine. The probabilities of improvement and survival with currently available agents were suboptimal. AdV disease after HCT remains a challenge. Better antiviral modalities are necessary.

[PMID: 33368539 DOI: 10.1111/ctr.14209] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/01/2020] [Revised: 11/30/2020] [Accepted: 12/15/2020] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The spectrum of human adenovirus (HAdV)-related disease is broad, and the virus acts on many organs and systems in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients. We aimed to evaluate the effect of HAdV-DNA positivity with clinical and laboratory findings 4 months after HSCT. METHODS AND RESULTS We retrospectively investigated HAdV-DNA in 153 HSCT recipients (≤18 years) by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RealStar; Altona Diagnostics). The results of samples from January 2014 to December 2017 are included. HAdV-DNA was positive for at least one sample type in 50 (32.67%) patients. HAdV-DNA positivity rate was 8.92% (N: 145/1625), 40.25% (N: 64/159), and 25% (N: 2/8) for plasma, stool, and urine samples, respectively. HAdV-DNA was positive in the plasma of 38 (24.83%) patients at a median 16 (range: 1-58 days) days after HSCT. The mortality rate was 23.68% and 6.95% in plasma HAdV-positive and HAdV-negative patients (p = .014). Moreover, HAdV-DNA positivity had an impact on overall survival for allogeneic-HSCT (p = .013), with the cumulative effect including graft-versus-host disease state in multivariate analysis (p = .014). CONCLUSIONS Plasma HAdV-DNA positivity is a potential influencer that decreases survival in the early post-transplant period. Due to the high mortality rates, close monitoring is required of HAdV infections after HSCT with sensitive methods, especially at the early stage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human adenovirus (HAdV) species B, C, and E are commonly associated with acute respiratory illnesses (ARI). We sought to determine the association between HAdV species and ARI severity in children over one respiratory season at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study of children with HAdV from a provider-ordered BioFire® FilmArray Respiratory Pathogen Panel 2.0 (RPP) from 05/2018-06/2019. Type-specific PCR assays for HAdV-B3, B7, B11, B14, B16, B21, HAdV-C1, C2, C5, C6, and HAdV-E4 were performed. Demographics, clinical characteristics, and outcome data were compared between HAdV species. RESULTS Of 4514 respiratory specimens collected, 2644 (59 %) had at least one pathogen detected by RPP, and 384 (15 %) were HAdV-positive; 342 (89 %) were available for research testing with 306 (89 %) specimens from unique symptomatic individuals; 237 (77 %) were positive for the following species: 104 (44 %) HAdV-B, 114 (48 %) HAdV-C, 9 (4%) HAdV-E, and 10 (4%) with co-detection between species. The majority with identified HAdV species were seen in the ED (62 %), and approximately one-third were hospitalized. Patients with HAdV-C were more likely to be younger, hospitalized, and have a higher frequency of seizures compared to HAdV-B. CONCLUSION HAdV-C and HAdV-B were the most common species detected, with differences in clinical characteristics and outcomes noted. Additional studies with larger sample sizes focusing on a high-risk pediatric population are necessary to determine if differences in illness severity across individual HAdV types exist to guide further type-specific HAdV vaccine development.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To provide an update on risk factors associated with adenovirus (ADV) infection in patients after hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and on options for ADV monitoring and treatment in the setting of HCT. RECENT FINDINGS Among patients undergoing HCT, ADV infection continues to be more common amongst those receiving a T-cell-depleted or graft other than from a matched-related donor. Among children undergoing HCT, reactivation in the gastrointestinal tract appears to be the most common source, and the virus is detectable by quantitative PCR in the stool before it is detectable in the blood. Thus, screening for the virus in the stool of these children may allow for preemptive therapy to reduce mortality. Brincidofovir, although still not approved by any regulatory agency, remains a potential agent for preemptive therapy and for salvage in cases not responding to cidofovir. Rapidly generated off-the-shelf virus-specific T cells may facilitate adoptive cell therapy in populations with a special need and previously not eligible for adoptive cell therapy, such as cord blood recipients. SUMMARY ADV infection continues to adversely affect survival in HCT recipients. Screening stool in children and preemptive therapy may reduce mortality. Brincidofovir and adoptive T-cell therapy remain potential options for treatment.

Abstract
Background Epidemiologic studies of human adenovirus (HAdV) in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients have been conducted mostly in European countries where HAdV 2 (species C) has been most prevalent in the community. The main objective of this study was to investigate the epidemiology and the characteristics of HAdV infection in Korean allogeneic HCT recipients (<19 years). Methods In a prospective study from April 2012 to September 2015, HAdV in blood, urine, and stool specimens were monitored weekly from transplantation to day 100 or after if clinically suspected. HAdV infection was defined as positive HAdV PCR result in any specimens regardless of symptoms. Results A total of 1734 specimens were collected from 57 consecutively enrolled recipients. The cumulative incidence of HAdV infection at day 100, and 1 year was 10%, and 20%, and the incidence of viremia was 2% and 6%, respectively. The median onset time from HCT to viremia was 221 days (range, 7‐596 days). All viremia cases were caused by only HAdV 3 (species B), whereas several types were detected in stool. Among patients with HAdV infection, lower absolute lymphocyte counts and extensive chronic graft‐vs‐host disease were associated with viremia (P = .028 and P = .006, respectively). Conclusions Compared to western studies, this study demonstrated a lower incidence and delayed onset of HAdV infections and HAdV 3 was most prevalent in Korea.
