Prospective study on the impact of BEAM versus FEAM conditioning on occurrence of neutropenic enterocolitis and on transplant outcome in lymphoma patients. Front Oncol 2024; 14:1369601. [PMID: 38803538 PMCID: PMC11128601 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2024.1369601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2024] [Accepted: 04/22/2024] [Indexed: 05/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Carmustine (BCNU), etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (BEAM) are a widely used high-dose chemotherapy regimen for autologous stem cell transplantation transplant (ASCT) in lymphoid malignancies. During BCNU shortages, some centers switched to fotemustine-substituted BEAM (FEAM). Neutropenic enterocolitis (NEC) is a life-threatening complication occurring after intestinal mucosa damage related to intensive chemotherapy. NEC mortality may be up to 30%-50%. In our study, we compared NEC incidence, symptoms, mortality, and transplant outcome in terms of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) in the BEAM vs. FEAM groups. Furthermore, we compared the cost of hospitalization of patients who did vs. patients who did not experience a NEC episode (NECe). Methods A total of 191 patients were enrolled in this study (N = 129 and N = 62 were conditioned with BEAM and FEAM, respectively). All patients received bed-side high-resolution ultrasound (US) for NEC diagnosis. Results and discussion NEC incidence and NEC-related mortality were similar in the BEAM and FEAM groups (31% and 40.3%, p = 0.653, and 5% and 8%, p = 0.627, respectively). At a median follow-up of 116 months, no difference was noted between BEAM vs. FEAM groups in terms of OS and PFS (p = 0.181 and p = 0.978, respectively). BEAM appeared equivalent to FEAM in terms of NEC incidence and efficacy. The high incidence of NEC and the low mortality is related to a timely US diagnosis and prompt treatment. US knowledge in NEC diagnosis allows to have comparable days of hospitalization of patients NECpos vs. patients NECneg. The cost analysis of NECpos vs. NECneg has been also performed.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is the standard of care treatment in relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (rrHL). Published long-term follow-up data concerning this modality from the Indian subcontinent is lacking. In this retrospective study, the data on adults (> 16 years) with biopsy-confirmed rrHL who were autografted from 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2021 at our transplant unit were analyzed. Progression-free survival (PFS) was defined as time from transplant to disease progression or death due to any cause. Overall survival (OS) was determined from date of transplant to date of death due to any cause. Overall, 134 patients with Hodgkin lymphoma underwent ASCT. At a median follow-up of 38.2 (range, 0.1-240) months, 5 years PFS was 45.3% (95% CI 35.4-54.4). The probability of OS at 5 years was 60.5% (95% CI 49.6-69.6). Eleven (8.2%) patients suffered transplant-related mortality by 100 days. Post-transplant persistent disease, pre-transplant serum hypoalbuminemia (< 3.5 g/dl) and chemo-resistance (< PR after last salvage regimen) of tumour at transplant were independent prognostic factors associated with worse PFS in multivariable analysis. Likewise, age ≥ 30 years, ECOG performance status ≥ 1 and residual disease after transplantation correlated with inferior OS. Long-term outcomes of rrHL patients undergoing ASCT in India match those from the developed world in the era of peripheral blood stem cell transplantation. Pre-transplant performance status, chemo-sensitivity of disease, serum albumin and post-transplant remission status determined survival in our cohort.

Abstract
To investigate the efficacy and safety of the FEAC (fotemustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and cyclophosphamide) conditioning regimen for the treatment of lymphoma, we retrospectively analyzed the records of 76 Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) patients who underwent autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) after the FEAC conditioning regimen. Their survival, as well as the clinical efficacy, hematopoietic engraftment time, and toxicity, were analyzed. One patient died of severe pulmonary infection, and the transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 1.3% (1/76). Hematopoietic engraftment was achieved successfully in the remaining 75 patients. The median times of neutrophil and platelet engraftment were 11 d (6-21 d) and 13 d (8-24 d), respectively. The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate was 69.1%, and the 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was 84.2%. FEAC conditioning regimen has acceptable toxicity, and the prognosis of patients is good, making it a feasible alternative to the BEAM regimen for ASCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of SEAM regimen followed by auto-SCT in lymphoma. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients with lymphoma who underwent auto-SCT with SEAM conditioning regimen from January 2010 to June 2018 at our centre. In total, 97 patients were analysed. RESULTS The median time to neutrophil engraftment and platelet engraftment was 9.5 days (range, 7-15 days) and 12 days (range, 7-25 days), respectively. Grade 3-4 nausea/vomiting, mucositis and diarrhoea were observed in 21.6%, 36.1%, and 11.3% of patients, respectively. Treatment-related mortality at 100 days occurred in 2 patients (2.1%). After a median follow-up time of 53.9 months, the 3-year incidence of disease relapse or progression was 34%. The estimated progression-free survival and overall survival at 3 years were 62% and 75%, respectively. Compared with previous studies using BEAM as the conditioning regimen, this study shows that the SEAM regimen has a comparable efficacy and safety profile. CONCLUSIONS The SEAM regimen is feasible and might be an ideal alternative to BEAM regimen for lymphoma auto-SCT.

Abstract
Abstract
Background In autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) for lymphomas, no standard conditioning regimen has been defined so far. Thus, the choice is guided by the center's familiarity and experience with a particular regimen.
Objective To determine the response, toxicity, and survival outcomes in lymphoma patients who underwent ASCT with CBV (cyclophosphamide, carmustine, and etoposide) conditioning regimen.
Materials and Methods Between January 2013 and May 2019, 45 consecutive lymphoma patients who had ASCT with CBV conditioning regimen were included in this retrospective study. CBV consisted of cyclophosphamide (1.5 g/m2/day × 4 days), carmustine (300 mg/m2 × 1 day), and etoposide (125 mg/m2 twice daily × 3 days). Baseline characteristics, pre transplant response, apheresis, post-transplant toxicities, post-transplant response, and survival outcomes were collected. Endpoints were toxicity, response, event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS).
Results The median age was 30 (range: 6–64) years. Diagnosis was Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) in 26 (58%) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) in 19 (42%). Forty-three patients (95%) had chemosensitive disease; 22(49%) in CR, and 21 (46%) in PR. The median CD34 was 2.95 × 106/kg (range: 0.9–9.56). The median time to neutrophil engraftment was 11 days (9–23) and 13 (8–36) days for platelets. All patients had febrile neutropenia, clinically and/or microbiologically documented infection was seen in 75% of patients. The most common grade 3/4 toxicities were mucositis (n = 4, 9%), diarrhea (n = 4, 9%), and nausea/vomiting (n = 2, 4%). The average days of hospitalization was 18 (range: 10–37). Day 100 mortality was 6.6% (n = 3). The median follow-up was 44.8 months. The median EFS for the entire cohort was 23.8 months; for HL, the median EFS was not reached, and for NHL, it was 7.97 months (95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.57–14.37). The median OS for the entire cohort and for HL was not reached; for NHL, it was 24.3 months (95% CI: 0.56–48.11).
Conclusion CBV conditioning regimen was well tolerated with low grade 3/4 toxicities and efficacy comparable to literature data.

Abstract
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of IEAC (idarubici, etoposide, cytosine arabinoside, and cyclophosphamide) and CEAC (lomustine, etoposide, cytosine arabinoside, and cyclophosphamide) high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the treatment of lymphoma.MethodWe retrospectively analyzed the data of 106 lymphoma patients undergoing ASCT from 2013 to 2018 using IEAC (n=43) or CEAC (n=63) regimens. The time of hematopoietic reconstruction, adverse events and the patients' survival outcomes in the two groups were compared to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the two regimens. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the factors potentially affecting the patients' survival.ResultsIn the total of 106 patients, successful hematopoietic reconstruction was achieved in 104 patients and treatment-related deaths occurred in 2 patients. No significant differences were observed in the time to hematopoietic recovery, adverse events or survival outcomes between the patients receiving IEAC and CEAC regimens. In the 104 patients with successful hematopoietic reconstruction who were followed for a median of 27.4 months (range 4.3 to 74.3 months), the 5-year progress-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 72.9% and 81.9%, respectively. The main adverse events (beyond grade 2 based on CTCAE v5.0) included infection, oral mucositis, nausea and vomiting, liver damage, cardiotoxicity, hypokalemia, and diarrhea. No significant difference was found in the survival outcomes or adverse events between the 2 regimens. T cell lymphoma and failure to achieve complete remission (CR) before ASCT were the risk factors of PFS (P=0.015 and P=0.007, respectively) and OS (P=0.038 and 0.031, respectively). The patients who achieved CR 3 months after the transplantation had higher rates of PFS (P=0.007) and OS (P=0.003).ConclusionIEAC and CEAC regimens prior to by ASCT are both safe and effective in the treatment of lymphoma and can be used as alternative conditioning regimens for lymphoma patients undergoing ASCT.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is an effective treatment for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). However, recent supply issues and toxicity of carmustine have necessitated a new conditioning regimen. We conducted a multicenter, phase II study of BEB (busulfan, etoposide, and bendamustine) conditioning regimen for ASCT in patients with NHL. Thirty-one patients were enrolled and underwent ASCT with the BEB conditioning regimen. The most common subtype was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (n = 23, 74.2%). Nine patients (29.0%) had a history of relapse, and 18 patients (58.1%) received more than 2 lines of chemotherapy before ASCT. A median number of 6.05 × 106/kg CD34 cells were infused, and all patients engrafted after a median period of 11 days. Thirteen patients (41.9%) experienced neutropenic fever, and 16 patients (51.6%) had grade 3 or 4 toxicities during ASCT. No one had a documented infection, veno-occlusive disease, or treatment-related death. Three-month complete remission rate was 81.8%. Median follow-up period of 15 months showed 6 patients (19.4%) relapsed or progressed and 3 patients died. The estimated 2-year progression-free survival and overall survival rate were 73.0% and 89.8%, respectively. Our results show that BEB conditioning regimens for ASCT are feasible with tolerable toxicity in patients with NHL.

Abstract
The objective of this guideline is to aid clinicians in making individual salvage treatment plans for pediatric and adolescent patients with first relapse or refractory (R/R) classical Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL). While salvage with standard dose chemotherapy followed by high dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplant is often considered the standard of care in adult practice, pediatric practice adopts a more individualized risk stratified and response adapted approach to salvage treatment with greater use of non-transplant salvage. Here, we present on behalf of the EuroNet Pediatric Hodgkin Lymphoma group, evidence and consensus-based guidelines for standardized diagnostic, prognostic and response procedures to allocate children and adolescents with R/R cHL to stratified salvage treatments.

Abstract
Background High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant has proven useful in relapsed or refractory cases of Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) is frequently used as a conditioning regimen; however, the high cost and limited availability of BCNU hinders its use in Mexico. Material/Methods Between January 2013 and February 2019, refractory or relapsing HL and NHL patients were treated with an autologous HSCT conditioned with cisplatin+dexamethasone as substitution for BCNU in BEAM. Results Four HL patients and 6 NHL patients were included; 60% were male, the average age was 34.5±15.2 years, the median follow-up was 19.1 months, and 70% had a complete response after transplant. OS at 12 months was 63% for NHL and 100% for HL. Time to hematological recovery was 17.6±2.8 days; all patients developed grade III/IV neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, and 8 patients had transplant-related infections. Conclusions This retrospective study based on real-world data introduces the option of substituting carmustine with cisplatin+dexamethasone, with a similar response, expected lower cost, and better accessibility in developing nations.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy (HDT) followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is widely used in patients with malignant lymphomas. In Europe over 8,000 ASCTs for lymphoma were performed out of a total of 40,000 transplants according to the European Bone Marrow Transplant (EBMT) activity survey in 2017. ASCT is considered the standard treatment for eligible patients failing to achieve remission after first line chemotherapy or patients with relapsed or refractory lymphomas, including classical Hodkin's lymphoma, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, mantle cell lymphoma, and follicular lymphoma, as well as consolidation therapy in first remission in mantle cell lymphoma. BEAM (BCNU/carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) is the most commonly used conditioning regimen for ASCT in patients with relapsed/refractory (R/R) lymphomas in Europe, whereas the CBV (cyclophosphamide, BCNU, and etoposide) regimen is also widely used in North America. Recently, concerns regarding BCNU toxicity as well as restricted availability of BCNU and melphalan has determined an increasing number of transplant centers to use alternative conditioning regimens. Currently, only a few comparative studies, most of them retrospective, between different conditioning protocols regarding efficacy and toxicity have been published. Thus, in the current manuscript, we report the experience of 2 transplant centers in ASCT in R/R lymphomas with three types of conditioning: BEAM, CLV (cyclophosphamide, lomustine, etoposide) and LEAM (lomustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan), with the aim to evaluate the results of alternative conditioning regimens using lomustine (LEAM and CLV) and compare them with the standard BEAM regarding early toxicity, engraftment, and transplant related mortality (TRM). All patients developed grade IV neutropenia, anemia with/without transfusion necessity. Severe thrombocytopenia with transfusion requirements is reported in most cases. Median time to platelet engraftment and neutrophil engraftment was 13 days (range) and 10 days (range), respectively. Gastrointestinal toxicity was the most common non-hematologic toxicity after all three conditioning regimens. Oral mucositis in various grades from I to IV was diagnosed in most cases. Other side effects include vomiting, diarrhea, colitis, and skin rash but with low severity grades. For the LEAM arm, one patient died after transplant, before engrafting, one patient didn't achieve platelet engraftment in day 100, one patient developed grade 3 upper gastrointestinal bleeding, one patient died (grade 5 toxicity) with acute renal failure, one patient developed hypoxic events up to grade 4 acute respiratory failure and one patient developed grade 3 itchy skin rash. For the CLV arm, one patient died after transplant, before engrafting, one patient developed grade 3 colitis, one patient with grade 3 hepatic cytolysis, one patient with cardiac toxicity followed by death (grade 5) caused by an acute myocardial infarction with ST elevation and one patient with pulmonary toxicity clinically manifested with grade 3 pleurisy. For the BEAM arm, one patient developed grade 3 cardiac toxicity with sinus bradycardia and afterwards grade 4 with acute pulmonary edema, three patients presented a grade 3 pruritic skin rash and two patients developed grade 3 seizures. In the present study we presented the differences that were observed between BEAM, LEAM, and CLV conditioning regimens offering clinical arguments for an SCT practitioner choice in the ideal situation, but also of choice for alternative regimens in the case that one regimen cannot be used.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HDT-AHCT) remains an effective therapy in lymphoma. Over the past several decades, HDT with BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) and CBV (cyclophosphamide, carmustine, and etoposide) have been the most frequently used preparatory regimens for AHCT in Hodgkin (HL) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). This article reviews alternative combination conditioning regimens, as well as novel transplant strategies that have been developed, to reduce transplant-related toxicity while maintaining or improving efficacy. These data demonstrate that incorporation of maintenance therapy posttransplant might be the best way to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) for multiple myeloma (MM) is associated with diarrhea during the peri-transplant period. We aimed to appraise mechanisms of peri-ASCT diarrhea in a prospective, longitudinal study of patients with MM. We compared by repeated measures (RM)-ANOVA daily bowel movements (BMs) and consistency [7-point Bristol Stool Form Scale (BSFS)], fecal calprotectin (intestinal inflammation), 13C-mannitol excretion in urine 0-2 h (small intestinal permeability), fasting serum C4 (bile acid synthesis) and total and primary bile acid in stool samples during baseline, peri-transplant period (Days 5-7 after stem cell infusion), and after hematological recovery post-ASCT. The 12 (5F, 7M) patients' median age was 61 y (IQR 54.8-63.3). All participants reported increased BMs (increase of 2 and 1 per day with and without engraftment syndrome, respectively). There were no significant increases in serum C4, total fecal bile acids, or intestinal permeability. Relative to patients without engraftment syndrome, four participants with engraftment syndrome had looser stool consistency (mean 2.6 points higher BSFS compared to without engraftment syndrome), increased primary fecal bile acids relative to baseline (>33 µmol/L vs. 6 µmol/L without engraftment syndrome), and increased fecal calprotectin compared to baseline (313 μg/mL vs. 35.6 μg/mL without engraftment syndrome; p = 0.06). Engraftment syndrome post-ASCT is associated with increased fecal primary bile acids.

Abstract
The aim of this study is to determine whether the modified BuCy (semustine, cytarabine, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide, mBuCy) conditioning regimen can be safely used as an alternative to the SEAM (semustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan) regimen by comparing the efficacy and toxicity of the mBuCy and SEAM regimens. We matched 34 pairs of patients with regard to disease status at the time of autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-SCT). We found no significant difference in the time of platelet engraftment between the two groups. Furthermore, neutrophil engraftment was somewhat faster in the mBuCy group than in the SEAM group (median: 9 days vs 10 days, p = 0.015). With regard to toxicity, the incidence of nausea/vomiting, hepatic impairment, renal impairment, pulmonary infection, and treatment-related mortality (TRM) was similar between the two groups. In addition, compared to patients conditioned with SEAM, patients conditioned with mBuCy were less likely to develop mucositis and diarrhea (p = 0.027; p = 0.050). The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates in the mBuCy and SEAM groups were 79% and 70% (p = 0.378), respectively, and the 2-year overall survival (OS) rates were 81% and 78.0%, respectively (p = 0.789). These analyses showed that the mBuCy conditioning regimen was well tolerated and can be used as an alternative to the SEAM regimen for lymphoma.

Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy supported by autologous stem cell support/transplantation (HDT/ASCT) has been a standard of care over the last two decades in patients with relapsed or refractory(R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which is sensitive to salvage chemotherapy. HDT/ASCT for high-risk DLBCL in upfront setting remains controversial, so it is not recommended for clinical practice. Various promising salvage chemotherapy regimens have been reported in phase 2 studies; however, two large randomized phase 3 studies showed similar efficacy of R-ICE vs. R-DHAP and R-GDP vs. R-DHAP. Since the registry data shows feasibility and efficacy of HDT/ASCT in elderly R/R DLBCL patients, older age (> 65 years) itself is not a contraindication for HDT/ASCT. Rituximab maintenance failed to demonstrate a significant benefit compared with observation only after HDT/ASCT. While sensitive R/R DLBCL might be cured by HDT/ASCT even in third-line therapy, the prognosis of insensitive R/R DLBCL is extremely poor. Further study to establish treatment strategies for high-risk patients defined by prognostic factors or biomarkers, and insensitive patients is warranted.

Lactobacillus brevis CD2 lozenges prevent oral mucositis in patients undergoing high dose chemotherapy followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. ESMO Open 2017; 1:e000138. [PMID: 28848667 PMCID: PMC5548970 DOI: 10.1136/esmoopen-2016-000138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 28] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2016] [Revised: 12/27/2016] [Accepted: 12/27/2016] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Oral mucositis is a common inflammatory complication in patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy and radiation followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Lactobacillus brevis CD2 has been proven efficacious in preventing chemoradiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in squamous cell carcinoma of head and neck. Methods This phase II study aimed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of L. brevis CD2 lozenges in preventing oral mucositis in patients undergoing HSCT. Eligible patients received four to six lozenges of L. brevis CD2 per day, beginning from 4 to 7 days before initiation of chemotherapy and continuing until resolution of mucositis or till day +24. Results Of 31 patients enrolled, 7 (22.6%) patients did not develop any mucositis, 6 (19.4%) patients developed grade 1, 12 (38.7%) patients developed grade 2, 4 (12.9%) and 2 (6.5%) patients developed grade 3 and grade 4 mucositis, respectively. Median time to onset and for resolution of mucositis were 6 days and 8 days, respectively. No adverse events were reported with usage of study drug. However, one patient died of Klebsiella sepsis. Conclusion Promising results from the study encourage the use of L. brevis CD2 lozenges as a supportive care treatment option; however, a randomised, double-blind, multicentric trial in a larger population is warranted. Trials registration number NCT01480011 at https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ (Registered on Nov 04, 2011).
