Abstract
BACKGROUND Use of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-mismatched donors could enable more patients with ethnically diverse backgrounds to receive allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in the United States. However, real-world trends and outcomes following mismatched donor HCT for diverse patients remain largely undefined. OBJECTIVE To determine whether mismatched donor platforms have increased access to allogeneic HCT for ethnically diverse patients, particularly through the application of novel graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis regimens, and if outcomes for diverse patients were comparable to those of non-Hispanic White patients. DESIGN Observational cross-sectional study using real-world data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) registry. All patients receiving their first allogeneic HCT in the U.S. from 2009-2020 with focus on transplants performed in 2020 were included. Data from patients receiving allogeneic HCT using bone marrow, peripheral blood or cord blood from HLA-matched or mismatched related and unrelated donors was analyzed. Specifically, relative proportions of allogeneic HCT were generated as percent of total for donor type and for patient age, disease indication, GvHD prophylaxis, and race and ethnicity. Causes of death were summarized using frequencies, and the Kaplan-Meier estimator was used for estimating overall survival. RESULTS Compared to matched related donor and matched unrelated donor HCT, more ethnically diverse patients received mismatched unrelated donor, haploidentical donor, and cord blood HCT. Matched unrelated donor remains the most common donor type, but use of haploidentical donors has increased significantly over the last 5 years. Paralleling the increase in haploidentical HCT is the increased use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) as GvHD prophylaxis. Relative to older transplant eras, the most contemporary transplant era associates with the highest survival rates following allogeneic HCT irrespective of patient race and ethnicity. However, disease relapse remains the primary cause of death for both adult and pediatric allogeneic HCT recipients by donor type and across all patient race and ethnicity groups. CONCLUSIONS Ethnically diverse patients are undergoing allogeneic HCTs at higher rates largely through the use of alternative donor platforms incorporating PTCy. Maintaining access to potential life-saving allogeneic HCT using alternative donors and novel GvHD prophylaxis strategies and improving HCT outcomes, particularly disease relapse, are urgent clinical needs.

Abstract
Background With the rising number of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell treated patients, it is increasingly important to understand the treatment's impact on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and, ideally, identify biomarkers of central nervous system (CNS) adverse effects. Methods The purpose of this exploratory study was to assess short-term PROs and serum kynurenine metabolites for associated neurotoxicity among patients treated in an anti-CD20, anti-CD19 (LV20.19) CAR T cell phase I clinical trial (NCT03019055). Fifteen CAR T treated patients from the parent trial provided serum samples and self-report surveys 15 days before and 14, 28, and 90 days after treatment. Results Blood kynurenine concentrations increased over time in patients with evidence of neurotoxicity (p = 0.004) and were increased in self-reported depression (r = 0.52, p = 0.002). Depression improved after CAR T infusion (p = 0.035). Elevated 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid (3HAA) concentrations prior to cell infusion were also predictive of neurotoxicity onset (p = 0.031), suggesting it is a biomarker of neurotoxicity following CAR T cell therapy. Conclusions Elevated levels of kynurenine pathway metabolites among CAR T cell recipients are associated with depressed mood and neurotoxicity. Findings from this exploratory study are preliminary and warrant validation in a larger cohort.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) is potentially curative but with known negative effects on quality of life. In the current study, the authors investigated whether patients expressed regret after undergoing HCT and the relationships between clinical outcomes and quality of life. METHODS Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research data from 184 adults who completed the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplant (FACT-BMT) before undergoing alloHCT and at day 100 were used. Additional time points were 6 months and 12 months. Regret was measured using a FACT-BMT item not included in scoring: "I regret having the bone marrow transplant." The authors evaluated FACT-BMT scores and regret using Student t-tests. Covariance pattern models were used to determine predictors of regret over time, including baseline characteristics and post-alloHCT outcomes (acute or chronic graft-versus-host-disease, disease recurrence). RESULTS At 100 days, 6 months, and 12 months, approximately 6% to 8% of patients expressed regret; a total of 15% expressed regret at any time point. Regret was found to be associated with lower FACT-BMT scores at 6 months and 12 months (P < .001). Higher baseline FACT-BMT and social well-being scores were associated with a reduced risk of expressing regret. The risk of regretting transplantation was 17.5 percentage points (95% confidence interval, 5.5-29.7 percentage points) greater in patients who developed disease recurrence after HCT compared with patients who did not. CONCLUSIONS Among patients who underwent alloHCT and lived to 100 days, the majority did not report regretting their transplantation. Regret was found to be related to disease recurrence. Social connectedness may serve as a protective factor against later regret. Future work should explore regret in other patient groups and use qualitative methods to inform best practices for reducing regret.
