Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a widely used treatment for malignant hematological diseases; however, some patients inevitably experience relapse. Therefore, for patients who relapse after the first HSCT (HSCT1), a standard treatment regimen must be developed. A second hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT2) is a possible treatment option. Several studies have analyzed the feasibility of HSCT2. Previous studies have shown that various factors may affect the efficacy of HSCT2, including the hematopoietic cell transplantation comorbidity index, duration of remission after HSCT1, occurrence of chronic graft-versus-host disease, and disease status before HSCT2. However, the selection of donors for HSCT2 does not affect the transplantation efficacy. HSCT2 also presents a risk of relapse, and the prognosis of patients after relapse is poor. Further research on the treatment of patients after relapse is warranted.

Salvage haploidentical transplantation for graft failure after first haploidentical allogeneic stem cell transplantation: an updated experience. Bone Marrow Transplant 2024; 59:991-996.

Abstract
Graft failure is a fatal complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation where a second transplantation is usually required for salvage. However, there are no recommended regimens for second transplantations for graft failure, especially in the haploidentical transplant setting. We recently reported encouraging outcomes using a novel method (haploidentical transplantation from a different donor after conditioning with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide). Herein, we report updated outcomes in 30 patients using this method. The median time of the second transplantation was 96.5 (33-215) days after the first transplantation. Except for one patient who died at +19d and before engraftment, neutrophil engraftments were achieved in all patients at 11 (8-24) days, while platelet engraftments were achieved in 22 (75.8%) patients at 17.5 (9-140) days. The 1-year OS and DFS were 60% and 53.3%, and CIR and TRM was 6.7% and 33.3%, respectively. Compared with the historical group, neutrophil engraftment (100% versus 58.5%, p < 0.001) and platelet engraftment (75.8% versus 32.3%, p < 0.001) were better in the novel regimen group, and OS was also improved (60.0% versus 26.4%, p = 0.011). In conclusion, salvage haploidentical transplantation from a different donor using the novel regimen represents a promising option to rescue patients with graft failure after the first haploidentical transplantation.

Graft failure after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in pediatric patients with acute leukemia: autologous reconstitution or second transplant? Stem Cell Res Ther 2024; 15:111. [PMID: 38644499 PMCID: PMC11034046 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-024-03726-z] [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: 09/27/2023] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/23/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft failure (GF) is a rare but serious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Prevention of graft failure remains the most advisable approach as there is no clear recommendation for the best strategies for reversing this complication. Administration of growth factor, additional hematopoietic progenitor boost, or a salvage HSCT are current modalities recommended for the treatment of GF. Autologous recovery without evidence of disease relapse occurs rarely in patients with GF, and in the absence of autologous recovery, further salvage transplantation following a second conditioning regimen is a potential treatment option that offers the best chances of long-term disease-free survival. The preconditioning regimens of second HSCT have a significant impact on engraftment and outcome, however, currently there is no consensus on optimal conditioning regimen for second HSCT in patients who have developed GF. Furthermore, a second transplant from a different donor or the same donor is still a matter of debate. OBSERVATIONS We present our experience in managing pediatric patients with acute leukemia who encountered graft failure following stem cell transplantation. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Although a second transplantation is almost the only salvage method, we illustrate that some pediatric patients with acute leukemia who experience graft failure after an allogeneic stem cell transplant using Myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen may achieve long-term disease-free survival through autologous hematopoiesis recovery.

Abstract
The ideal immunosuppressive agents to complement post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in PBSC-based haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) remain debated. This study looks at our experience with ATG-PTCy-Cyclosporine (CsA) prophylaxis in PB haplo-HCT since 2015. Between October 2015 and December 2021, 157 adults underwent haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) using a GVHD prophylaxis regimen comprising rabbit-ATG, PTCy, and CsA. Among these patients, 76.4% received a total ATG dose of 4.5 mg/kg, and 23.5% received 2 mg/kg. T-cell replete peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) grafts were infused on day 0. The study reported a median follow-up of 32 months (range 0.3-61.64) for survivors. The cumulative incidence of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute GVHD at day +100 was 26.3% and 9.5%, respectively. Moderate/severe chronic GVHD at 1 year was 19.9%. The 2-year overall survival (OS) was 49.4%, with a relapse-free survival (RFS) of 44.6%. In multivariate analysis, older patients, and those with high/very-high disease risk indices (DRI) were at higher risk for worse OS and higher non-relapse mortality (NRM). The study confirms that using PTCy and ATG (4.5 mg/kg), alongside CsA is safe and effective in preventing GVHD when using peripheral blood as the stem cell source in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT).

Abstract
The effects of a second haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with an antithymocyte antibody-containing conditioning regimen after graft failure in patients with severe aplastic anemia remain unclear. Eight severe aplastic anemia patients with graft failure with a median age of 12.5 (range, 3-22) years were retrospectively reviewed. At the second transplantation, they received a median mononuclear cell number of 15.7 (range, 11.2-20.9) × 108/kg or a median CD34+ cell number of 6.2 (range, 2.5-17.5) × 106/kg. They were all successfully engrafted, with a median time of 12.5 (range, 11-16) days for neutrophils and 24 (range, 14-50) days for platelets. Three patients developed skin acute graft-versus-host disease Grades I-II, and another 3 developed limited chronic graft-versus-host disease. All patients successfully recovered after treatment with methylprednisolone (0.5-1 mg/kg/day) and tacrolimus. One patient each died of respiratory failure caused by multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae at 8 months and invasive fungal disease at 23 months after transplantation. Six patients survived with a 5-year estimated overall survival of 75% and a median follow-up time of 61 (range, 8-129) months. A second haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with an antithymocyte antibody-containing conditioning regimen was feasible for saving severe aplastic anemia patients with graft failure.

Thrombopoietin level predicts the response to avatrombopag treatment for persistent thrombocytopenia after haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:1368-1376. [PMID: 37679646 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-023-02100-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2023] [Revised: 08/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/09/2023]
Abstract
Persistent thrombocytopenia (PT) has an unsatisfactory response to therapy after haploidentical haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). We retrospectively evaluated the safety and efficacy of avatrombopag treatment in 69 patients with PT following haplo-HSCT and assessed whether baseline thrombopoietin (TPO) levels could predict treatment response. Overall response (OR) and complete response (CR) were defined as increased platelet levels to over 20 × 109/L or 50 × 109/L independent of platelet transfusion during or within 7 days of the end of avatrombopag treatment, respectively. The incidences of OR and CR were 72.5% and 58.0%, with a median of 11 and 29 days to OR and CR, respectively. ROC analysis suggested that the optimally discriminant baseline TPO level threshold for both OR and CR to avatrombopag was ≤ 1714 pg/mL. In multivariate analysis, a lower baseline TPO level (P = 0.005) was a significant independent factor of response to avatrombopag. For patients resistant to other TPO receptor agonists (TPO-RAs), 9/16 (56.3%) exhibited a response after switching to avatrombopag. Avatrombopag was well tolerated, and responders achieved improved overall survival (79.0% vs. 91.1%, P = 0.001). In conclusion, avatrombopag is a potential safe and effective treatment for PT after haplo-HSCT, and lower baseline TPO levels predicted a better response.

Long-term outcome of second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT2) for primary graft failure in patients with acute leukemia in remission: A study on behalf of the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation. Bone Marrow Transplant 2023; 58:1008-1016. [PMID: 37253804 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-023-02012-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2023] [Revised: 05/07/2023] [Accepted: 05/15/2023] [Indexed: 06/01/2023]
Abstract
Second transplantation (HSCT2) is a potential treatment for primary graft failure (pGF). We assessed the outcome of HSCT2, performed between 2000 and 2021, for pGF in 243 patients with acute leukemia. Median age was 44.8 years. Conditioning at first HSCT (HSCT1) was myeloablative (MAC) in 58.4%. Median time from HSCT1 to HSCT2 was 48 days. Donors for HSCT2 were the same as for HSCT1 in 49%. Engraftment post HSCT2 was achieved by 73.7% of patients. The incidence of acute (a) graft versus host disease (GVHD) grades II-IV and III-IV was 23.2 and 8.1%. 5-year total and extensive chronic (c) GVHD was 22.3 and 10.1%. 5-year nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse incidence (RI), leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS) and GVHD free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 51.6, 18.8, 29.6, 30.7 and 22.4%, respectively. Infections were the main cause of death. In multivariable analysis, being transplanted at second vs. first remission, lower Karnofsky performance status (KPS; <90) and receiving MAC at HSCT1 were adverse prognostic factors for NRM, LFS, OS, and GRFS, as was increased age for NRM, LFS, OS. We conclude that HSCT2 can rescue about a third of the patients who experienced pGF, but NRM is as high as 50%.

Abstract
Graft failure is a group of complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which occurs according to different data up to 30%. The group of complications includes primary and secondary graft failure, primary, secondary and transient poor graft function and graft rejection. Diagnostic difficulties consist in the lack of unified diagnostic criteria accepted in the transplantation community and in the dual interpretation of these complications according to the foreign literature. The purpose of this literature review was to identify the most common criteria of different types of graft failure and determine the tactics of diagnosis and treatment. In this review we analyzed data from various literature sources, gave definitions of graft failure and poor graft function. We analyzed the literature data on the methods used to treat these conditions.

Abstract
Poor graft function (PGF) is a life-threatening complication that occurs after transplantation and has a poor prognosis. With the rapid development of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the pathogenesis of PGF has become an important issue. Studies of the pathogenesis of PGF have resulted in some success in CD34+-selected stem cell boosting. Mesenchymal stem cells, N-acetyl-l-cysteine, and eltrombopag have also been investigated as therapeutic strategies for PGF. However, predicting and preventing PGF remains challenging. Here, we propose that the seed, soil, and insect theories of aplastic anemia also apply to PGF; CD34+ cells are compared to seeds; the bone marrow microenvironment to soil; and virus infection, iron overload, and donor-specific anti-human leukocyte antigen antibodies to insects. From this perspective, we summarize the available information on the common risk factors of PGF, focusing on its potential mechanism. In addition, the safety and efficacy of new strategies for treating PGF are discussed to provide a foundation for preventing and treating this complex clinical problem.

Abstract
PURPOSE Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an important complication after human leukocyte antigen (HLA) haploidentical donor (HID) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), which may lead to poor prognosis. Our study intends to identify the efficacy and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for multidrug-resistant (MDR)-GVHD after HID HSCT. METHODS MDR-GVHD was referring to GVHD remaining no response to at least two types of therapy, and hUCB-MSCs were given at the dose of (1.0-2.0) × 106/kg once a week. RESULTS A total of 21 patients were enrolled in this retrospective study (acute GVHD (aGVHD): n = 14, chronic GVHD (cGVHD): n = 7). The median dose of MSCs was 1.2 × 106 cells/kg (range, 0.8-1.8 × 106) cells/kg, and the median numbers of infusion were 2 (range, 1-7) and 3 (range, 2-12) for MDR-aGVHD and MDR-cGVHD patients, respectively. In MDR-aGVHD patients, the overall response rate (ORR) was 57.1%, including 50.0% complete response (CR) and 7.1% partial response (PR), and the median time to response was 49.5 days (range, 16-118) days. The 2-year probability of overall survival after MSCs was 64.3%. Five patients (35.7%) developed infections after MSCs, and no obvious hematologic toxicities were observed. Five MDR-aGVHD patients died after MSCs treatments because of GVHD progression (n = 1), severe infection (bacterial central nervous system infection: n = 1; fungal pneumonia: n = 2), and poor graft function (n = 1). In MDR-cGVHD patients, three patients (42.9%) achieved PR after MSCs and the median time to response was 56 days (22-84) days. The ORRs for moderate and severe cGVHD were 50.0% and 33.3%, respectively. Four MDR-cGVHD patients died after MSCs treatments because of GVHD progression (n = 2), severe fungal pneumonia (n = 1), and relapse (n = 1). CONCLUSION MSCs treatment may be safe and effective for MDR-GVHD after HID HSCT.
