Abstract
After allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), accurate differentiation between donor-derived post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) and relapse of recipient-derived lymphoproliferative disorder (LPD) is crucial for determining treatment. Conventional diagnostic approaches for PTLD include histopathological examination, flow cytometry, and chimerism analysis of bulk tumor tissue. However, these methods are inconclusive in cases in which the primary disease is an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-positive LPD and is of the same lineage as that of the post-HSCT LPD tumor cells. Particularly, in cases where the number of tumor cells in the tissue is low, it is difficult to determine the origin of tumor cells. In this study, we developed a new method to simultaneously detect signals using sex chromosome fluorescence in situ hybridization, immunofluorescence staining, and EBV-encoded small RNA in situ hybridization on a single section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded histopathological specimen. The utility of the method was validated using specimens from 6 cases of EBV-positive LPD after sex-mismatched HSCT that were previously difficult to diagnose, including Hodgkin lymphoma-like PTLD that developed after HSCT for Hodgkin lymphoma and recurrence of chronic active EBV infection. This method successfully preserved the histologic structure after staining and allowed accurate determination of tumor cell origin and lineage at the single-cell level, providing a definitive diagnosis in all cases. This method provides a powerful tool for the diagnosis of LPDs after sex-mismatched HSCT.

T-Cell Posttransplant Lymphoproliferative Disorders After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Case Series and Systemic Review. Cell Transplant 2024; 33:9636897241259722. [PMID: 38856035 PMCID: PMC11165952 DOI: 10.1177/09636897241259722] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/12/2024] [Revised: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/11/2024] Open
Abstract
Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a rare lymphoid and/or plasmocytic proliferation that occurs after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We aimed to identify the pathologic features and clinical outcomes of T-cell PTLD, an extremely rare subtype of PTLD, after allo-HSCT. In this study, six allo-HSCT recipients with T-cell PTLD from five transplant centers in China were enrolled. All the T-cell PTLD were donor-derived, and three patients were with monomorphic and three with polymorphic types, respectively. All patients received cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (CHOP)-based chemotherapy. Five patients achieved complete response (CR), and one experienced progressive disease (PD). The median time from HSCT to onset was 4 (range: 0.6-72) months, analyzed in combination with the other 16 patients with T-cell PTLD identified from previous reports. About 56.3% of the T-cell samples (9/16) were positive for in situ hybridization with an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-encoded small nuclear early region (EBER ISH). CHOP-based chemotherapy might be the optimal strategy for patients who showed no response to empiric therapy with a CR rate of 87.5%. In conclusion, our study observed that T-cell PTLD has distinct clinical manifestations and morphological features, which characterized by less relation to EBV, later occurrence, and poorer prognosis when compared with B-cell PTLD.

Abstract
Background Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are heterogeneous lymphoid disorders ranging from indolent polyclonal proliferations to aggressive lymphomas that can arise after solid organ transplantation (SOT) and allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods In this multi-center retrospective study, we compare patient characteristics, therapies, and outcomes of PTLD after allo-HSCT and SOT. Twenty-five patients (15 after allo-HSCT and 10 after SOT) were identified who developed PTLD between 2008 and 2022. Results Median age (57 years; range, 29-74 years) and baseline characteristics were comparable between the two groups (allo-HSCT vs SOT), but median onset of PTLD was markedly shorter after allo-HSCT (2 months vs. 99 months, P<0.001). Treatment regimens were heterogeneous, with reduction of immunosuppression in combination with rituximab being the most common first-line treatment strategy in both cohorts (allo-HSCT: 66%; SOT: 80%). The overall response rate was lower in the allo-HSCT (67%) as compared to the SOT group (100%). Consequently, the overall survival (OS) trended towards a worse outcome for the allo-HSCT group (1-year OS: 54% vs. 78%; P=0.58). We identified PTLD onset ≤150 days in the allo-HSCT (P=0.046) and ECOG >2 in the SOT group (P=0.03) as prognostic factors for lower OS. Conclusion PTLD cases present heterogeneously and pose unique challenges after both types of allogeneic transplantation.

Abstract
Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) limits the therapeutic benefit of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and requires immunosuppressive prophylaxis that compromises antitumor and antipathogen immunity. OX40 is a costimulatory receptor upregulated on circulating T cells in aGVHD and plays a central role in driving the expansion of alloreactive T cells. Here, we show that OX40 is also upregulated on T cells infiltrating GVHD target organs in a rhesus macaque model, supporting the hypothesis that targeted ablation of OX40+ T cells will mitigate GVHD pathogenesis. We thus created an OX40-specific cytotoxic receptor that, when expressed on human T cells, enables selective elimination of OX40+ T cells. Because OX40 is primarily upregulated on CD4+ T cells upon activation, engineered OX40-specific T cells mediated potent cytotoxicity against activated CD4+ T cells and suppressed alloreactive T-cell expansion in a mixed lymphocyte reaction model. OX40 targeting did not inhibit antiviral activity of memory T cells specific to Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and adenoviral antigens. Systemic administration of OX40-targeting T cells fully protected mice from fatal xenogeneic GVHD mediated by human peripheral blood mononuclear cells. Furthermore, combining OX40 targeting with a leukemia-specific chimeric antigen receptor in a single T cell product provides simultaneous protection against leukemia and aGVHD in a mouse xenograft model of residual disease posttransplant. These results underscore the central role of OX40+ T cells in mediating aGVHD pathogenesis and support the feasibility of a bifunctional engineered T-cell product derived from the stem cell donor to suppress both disease relapse and aGVHD following allo-HSCT.

Abstract
PTLD is a rare but severe complication of hematopoietic or solid organ transplant recipients, with variable incidence and timing of occurrence depending on different patient-, therapy-, and transplant-related factors. The pathogenesis of PTLD is complex, with most cases of early PLTD having a strong association with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection and the iatrogenic, immunosuppression-related decrease in T-cell immune surveillance. Without appropriate T-cell response, EBV-infected B cells persist and proliferate, resulting in malignant transformation. Classification is based on the histologic subtype and ranges from nondestructive hyperplasias to monoclonal aggressive lymphomas, with the most common subtype being diffuse large B-cell lymphoma-like PTLD. Management focuses on prevention of PTLD development, as well as therapy for active disease. Treatment is largely based on the histologic subtype. However, given lack of clinical trials providing evidence-based data on PLTD therapy-related outcomes, there are no specific management guidelines. In this review, we discuss the pathogenesis, histologic classification, and risk factors of PTLD. We further focus on common preventive and frontline treatment modalities, as well as describe the application of novel therapies for PLTD and elaborate on potential challenges in therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) are rare immunosuppression complications affecting 5% of transplant patients. Isolated central nervous system (CNS)-PTLD without nodal or extra-nodal organ involvement is rarely reported and is difficult to diagnose due to the non-specific clinical manifestations and imaging features overlapping with other common CNS lesions. CASE PRESENTATION We present a case of a 72-year-old female subjected to a renal transplant 11 years ago with progressively worsening headaches and confusion. Imaging revealed vasogenic edema in the left frontal and bilateral temporal lobes. She was subjected to a craniotomy and excisional biopsy to obtain tissue for diagnostic and therapeutic interventions. Pathology examination showed atypical EBV-positive lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate, consistent with Polymorphic type PTLD. CONCLUSIONS Patients diagnosed with PTLD need to have close monitoring of immunosuppressive medications while in the hospital. Early diagnosis is essential for patient survival with PTLD, as their health can deteriorate fast.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Management of Epstein-Barr virus posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV PTLD) is complex, involving risk stratification, prevention and/or preemptive measures involving monitoring EBV DNAemia and balancing treatment options, using a combination of reduction of immune suppression, anti-B cell therapy, and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). RECENT FINDINGS The highest risk factor for the development of EBV PTLD in hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) remains T cell depletion, with increasing use of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) or alemtuzumab in conditioning. In solid organ transplantation (SOT), the incidence of PTLD is highest among EBV seronegative recipients who are at risk for primary EBV infection following transplant in the first 12 months. Prevention is a critical component of the management of EBV PTLD. Although preemptive therapy remains standard of care, there continues to be heterogenicity and debate over the optimal choice of EBV DNA quantification and the threshold to use. Novel therapies such as donor-derived multipathogen and EBV specific CTLs for the prevention and third party CTLs for the treatment of EBV PTLD are promising, with rapidly expanding evidence, including large scale Phase III trials currently underway. SUMMARY With an increasing number of risk groups for developing EBV PTLD in HCT and SOT, management strategies using prophylaxis or preemptive therapy remain standard of care, however the use of prophylactic or preemptive EBV specific or multipathogen CTLs show promising results and safety profiles.

Abstract
EBV-positive and EBV-negative posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) arise in different immunovirological contexts and might have distinct pathophysiologies. To examine this hypothesis, we conducted a multicentric prospective study with 56 EBV-positive and 39 EBV-negative PTLD patients of the K-VIROGREF cohort, recruited at PTLD diagnosis and before treatment (2013-2019), and compared them to PTLD-free Transplant Controls (TC, n = 21). We measured absolute lymphocyte counts (n = 108), analyzed NK- and T cell phenotypes (n = 49 and 94), and performed EBV-specific functional assays (n = 16 and 42) by multiparameter flow cytometry and ELISpot-IFNγ assays (n = 50). EBV-negative PTLD patients, NK cells overexpressed Tim-3; the 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) was poorer in patients with a CD4 lymphopenia (CD4+ <300 cells/mm3 , p < .001). EBV-positive PTLD patients presented a profound NK-cell lymphopenia (median = 60 cells/mm3 ) and a high proportion of NK cells expressing PD-1 (vs. TC, p = .029) and apoptosis markers (vs. TC, p < .001). EBV-specific T cells of EBV-positive PTLD patients circulated in low proportions, showed immune exhaustion (p = .013 vs. TC) and poorly recognized the N-terminal portion of EBNA-3A viral protein. Altogether, this broad comparison of EBV-positive and EBV-negative PTLDs highlight distinct patterns of immunopathological mechanisms between these two diseases and provide new clues for immunotherapeutic strategies and PTLD prognosis.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplants (HSCT) are becoming more widespread as a result of optimization of conditioning regimens and prevention of short-term complications with prophylactic antibiotics and antifungals. However, pulmonary complications post-HSCT remain a leading cause of morbidity and mortality and are a challenge to clinicians in both diagnosis and treatment. This comprehensive review provides a primer for non-pulmonary healthcare providers, synthesizing the current evidence behind common infectious and non-infectious post-transplant pulmonary complications based on time (peri-engraftment, early post-transplantation, and late post-transplantation). Utilizing the combination of timing of presentation, clinical symptoms, histopathology, and radiographic findings should increase rates of early diagnosis, treatment, and prognostication of these severe illness states.

Abstract
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are life-threatening complications arising after solid organ or hematopoietic stem cell transplantations. Although the majority of these lymphoproliferations are of B cell origin, and are frequently associated with primary Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection or reactivation in the post-transplant period, rare cases of T cell and natural killer (NK) cell-originated PTLDs have also been described. A general assumption is that PTLDs result from the impairment of anti-viral and anti-tumoral immunosurveillance due to the long-term use of immunosuppressants in transplant recipients. T cell impairment is known to play a critical role in the immune-pathogenesis of post-transplant EBV-linked complications, while the role of NK cells has been less investigated, and is probably different between EBV-positive and EBV-negative PTLDs. As a part of the innate immune response, NK cells are critical for protecting hosts during the early response to virus-induced tumors. The complexity of their function is modulated by a myriad of activating and inhibitory receptors expressed on cell surfaces. This review outlines our current understanding of NK cells in the pathogenesis of PTLD, and discusses their potential implications for current PTLD therapies and novel NK cell-based therapies for the containment of these disorders.

Abstract
A specific category termed immunodeficiency-associated lymphoproliferative disorders (LPD) exists in the 2016 revised WHO classification concerning lymphoid neoplasms. This category is defined by etiology and includes LPD developing in association with organ transplantation or immunosuppressive/immunomodulatory agents including methotrexate. The functional mechanism is chiefly explained by the autonomous proliferation of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-infected lymphocytes induced by host-immune suppression. This category ranges from reactive lymphocyte hyperplasia to monomorphic lymphoma. Its clinical behavior varies depending on host immunity and pathological features; pathological confirmation by biopsy is thus important for deciding treatment strategies. Owing to the spontaneous regression observed in some patients, uniform chemotherapy is not recommended. The main initial treatment options include the reduction in immunosuppressive drugs, immunotherapy with the anti-CD20 antibody rituximab, chemotherapy, or a combination of these. Other novel treatments such as adoptive immunotherapy with EBV-specific cytotoxic T cells, could be an alternative for relapsed/refractory diseases in clinical trials.

Post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Ann Hematol 2021; 100:865-878.

Abstract
Post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder (PTLD) is a severe complication of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), occurring in a setting of immune suppression and dysregulation. The disease is in most cases driven by the reactivation of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), which induces B cell proliferation through different pathomechanisms. Beyond EBV, many factors, variably dependent on HSCT-related immunosuppression, contribute to the disease development. PTLDs share several features with primary lymphomas, though clinical manifestations may be different, frequently depending on extranodal involvement. According to the WHO classification, histologic examination is required for diagnosis, allowing also to distinguish among PTLD subtypes. However, in cases of severe and abrupt presentation, a diagnosis based on a combination of imaging studies and EBV-load determination is accepted. Therapies include prophylactic and pre-emptive interventions, aimed at eradicating EBV proliferation before symptoms onset, and targeted treatments. Among them, rituximab has emerged as first-line option, possibly combined with a reduction of immunosuppression, while EBV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes are effective and safe alternatives. Though prognosis remains poor, survival has markedly improved following the adoption of the aforementioned treatments. The validation of innovative, combined approaches is the future challenge.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus-associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV-PTLD) is increasingly recognized as a life-threatening complication after transplantation. Most areas affected by EBV-PTLD are lymph nodes, with occasional reports of extranodal lesions such as the gastrointestinal tract and central nervous system; however, orbital regions are extremely rare. We report a case of EBV-PTLD in a cord blood transplant recipient with a tumor in the upper right eyelid. Ultimately, eye symptoms were the first signs of PTLD. Transplant physicians should consider the possibility of PTLD when encountering an orbital lesion.

Abstract
Transplantation offers cure for some haematological cancers, end-stage organ failure, but at the cost of long-term complications. Renal transplantation is the best-known kidney replacement therapy and it can prolong end-stage renal disease patient lives for decades. However, patients after renal transplantation are at a higher risk of developing different complications connected not only with surgical procedure but also with immunosuppressive treatment, chronic kidney disease progression and rejection processes. Various blood disorders can develop in post-transplant patients ranging from relatively benign anaemia through cytopenias to therapy-related myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders followed by a rare and fatal condition of thrombotic microangiopathy and haemophagocytic syndrome. So far literature mainly focused on the post-transplant lymphoproliferative disease. In this review, a variety of haematological problems after transplantation ranging from rare disorders such as myelodysplasia and AML to relatively common conditions such as anaemia and iron deficiency are presented with up-to-date diagnosis and management.

Abstract
Post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) are life-threatening complications of iatrogenic immune impairment after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In the pediatric setting, the majority of PTLDs are related to the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and present as B-cell lymphoproliferations. Although considered rare events, PTLDs have been increasingly observed with the widening application of HSCT from alternative sources, including cord blood and HLA-haploidentical stem cell grafts, and the use of novel agents for the prevention and treatment of rejection and graft-vs.-host disease. The higher frequency initially paralleled a poor outcome, due to limited therapeutic options, and scarcity of controlled trials in a rare disease context. In the last 2 decades, insight into the relationship between EBV and the immune system, and advances in early diagnosis, monitoring and treatment have changed the approach to the management of PTLDs after HSCT, and significantly ameliorated the prognosis. In this review, we summarize literature on the impact of combined viro-immunologic assessment on PTLD management, describe the various strategies for PTLD prevention and preemptive/curative treatment, and discuss the potential of novel immune-based therapies in the containment of this malignant complication.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus associated post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (EBV PTLD) are recognized as a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT). The number of patients at risk of developing EBV PTLD is increasing, partly as a result of highly immunosuppressive regimens, including the use of anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG). Importantly, there is heterogeneity in PTLD management strategies between alloHSCT centers worldwide. This review summarizes the different EBV PTLD prevention strategies being utilized including the alloHSCT and T-cell depletion regimes and the risk they confer; monitoring programs, including the timing and analytes used for EBV virus detection, as well as pre-emptive thresholds and therapy with rituximab. In the absence of an institution-specific policy, it is suggested that the optimal pre-emptive strategy in HSCT recipients with T-cell depleting treatments, acute graft vs host disease (GVHD) and a mismatched donor for PTLD prevention is (a) monitoring of EBV DNA post-transplant weekly using plasma or WB as analyte and (b) pre-emptively reducing immune suppression (if possible) at an EBV DNA threshold of >1000 copies/mL (plasma or WB), and treating with rituximab at a threshold of >1000 copies/mL (plasma) or >5000 copies/mL (WB). There is emerging evidence for prophylactic rituximab as a feasible and safe strategy for PTLD, particularly if pre-emptive monitoring is problematic. Future management strategies such as prophylactic EBV specific CTLs have shown promising results and as this procedure becomes less expensive and more accessible, it may become the strategy of choice for EBV PTLD prevention.

Abstract
Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a ubiquitous virus belonging to the human γ-herpes virus subfamily. After primary infection, EBV maintains a life-long latent infection. A major concern is that EBV can cause a diverse range of neoplasms and autoimmune diseases. In addition, patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or solid organ transplantation can experience post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs) due to dysfunction or suppression of host’s immune system, or uncontrolled proliferation of EBV-infected cells. In recent years, the number of EBV-associated PTLD cases has increased. This review focuses on the current understandings of EBV-associated PTLD pathogenesis, as well as the risk factors and clinical outcomes for patients after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.
