Abstract
BACKGROUND There is paucity of data regarding outcomes of children, adolescents and young adults (CAYA) patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). METHODS Patients aged 0-39 years undergoing first ASCT for NHL at MD Anderson Cancer Center between 2000 and 2020 were analyzed. RESULTS Two hundred twenty-one patients were included in the analysis, 129 (58%) were male and the median age was 32 (range 6-39) years. The most common histological subtypes were diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (44%), T-NHL (19%) and primary mediastinal B-Cell lymphoma (PMBCL) (19%). Younger patients (age ≤ 25) had lower incidence of DLBCL and higher incidence of PMBCL and T-NHL compared to older patients (age > 25) (P = 0.02). None of the younger patients had double hit (DH)/double expressor (DE) DLBCL, compared to 14 patients in the older age group (18%, P = 0.07). Considering the three main aggressive NHL subtypes (DLBCL, PMBCL and T-NHL), younger patients had numerically better 15-year post-transplant progression free survival (PFS) (67% vs. 54%) and overall survival (OS) (71% vs. 62%) compared to older patients, yet these differences did not reach statistical significance (P = 0.19 and P = 0.24, respectively). In multivariate analysis, not achieving a CR prior to ASCT was independently predictive of worse PFS [partial remission (PR) (HR, 3.9); stable disease (SD) (HR, 18.0), P = 0.03] and of worse OS [PR (HR, 4.2), SD (HR, 6.5) and progressive disease (HR, 4.7), P < 0.0001]. DH/DE status was an independent adverse predictor of PFS in multivariate analysis (HR 5.8, p = 0.03). Ten patients (4.5%) (all aged > 25 years) developed second primary malignancies (SPM), at a median of 34.4 (range, 1.0-196.6) months after ASCT, and SPM was the cause of death in five (50%) of them. CONCLUSIONS CAYA NHL patients aged ≤ 25 years who received ASCT presented a distinct NHL histology as compared to older CAYA patients, and none in this younger age group had DH/DE DLBCL. We observed a trend towards improved PFS and OS in younger patients. Disease status at ASCT was predictive of both PFS and OS. DH/DE status was an adverse predictor of PFS.

Abstract
Lung injury is a major determinant of survival after pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). A deeper understanding of the relationship between pulmonary microbes, immunity, and the lung epithelium is needed to improve outcomes. In this multicenter study, we collected 278 bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) samples from 229 patients treated at 32 children's hospitals between 2014-2022. Using paired metatranscriptomes and human gene expression data, we identified 4 patient clusters with varying BAL composition. Among those requiring respiratory support prior to sampling, in-hospital mortality varied from 22-60% depending on the cluster (p=0.007). The most common patient subtype, Cluster 1, showed a moderate quantity and high diversity of commensal microbes with robust metabolic activity, low rates of infection, gene expression indicating alveolar macrophage predominance, and low mortality. The second most common cluster showed a very high burden of airway microbes, gene expression enriched for neutrophil signaling, frequent bacterial infections, and moderate mortality. Cluster 3 showed significant depletion of commensal microbes, a loss of biodiversity, gene expression indicative of fibroproliferative pathways, increased viral and fungal pathogens, and high mortality. Finally, Cluster 4 showed profound microbiome depletion with enrichment of Staphylococci and viruses, gene expression driven by lymphocyte activation and cellular injury, and the highest mortality. BAL clusters were modeled with a random forest classifier and reproduced in a geographically distinct validation cohort of 57 patients from The Netherlands, recapitulating similar cluster-based mortality differences (p=0.022). Degree of antibiotic exposure was strongly associated with depletion of BAL microbes and enrichment of fungi. Potential pathogens were parsed from all detected microbes by analyzing each BAL microbe relative to the overall microbiome composition, which yielded increased sensitivity for numerous previously occult pathogens. These findings support personalized interpretation of the pulmonary microenvironment in pediatric HCT, which may facilitate biology-targeted interventions to improve outcomes.

Abstract
Blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN) is a rare hematologic malignancy that can involve the bone marrow, peripheral blood, skin, lymph nodes, and the central nervous system. Though more common in older adults, BPDCN has been reported across all age groups, including infants and children. The incidence of pediatric BPDCN is extremely low and little is known about the disease. Pediatric BPDCN is believed to be clinically less aggressive but often with more dissemination at presentation than adult cases. Unlike adults who almost always proceed to a hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in first complete remission if transplant-eligible, the majority of children can be cured with a high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia-like regimen. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is recommended for children with high-risk disease, the definition of which continues to evolve, or those in relapse and refractory settings where outcomes continue to be dismal. Novel agents used in other hematologic malignancies and CD123 targeted agents, including chimeric antigen receptor T-cells and monoclonal/bispecific antibodies, are being brought into research and practice. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive review of presentation, diagnosis, and treatment by review of pediatric cases reported for the last 20 years, and a review of novel targeted therapies and therapies under investigation for adult and pediatric patients.

Abstract
T cell-mediated hyperinflammatory responses, such as cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS), are now well-established toxicities of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy. As the field of CAR T cells advances, however, there is increasing recognition that hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH)-like toxicities following CAR T cell infusion are occurring broadly across patient populations and CAR T cell constructs. Importantly, these HLH-like toxicities are often not as directly associated with CRS and/or its severity as initially described. This emergent toxicity, however ill-defined, is associated with life-threatening complications, creating an urgent need for improved identification and optimal management. With the goal of improving patient outcomes and formulating a framework to characterize and study this HLH-like syndrome, we established an American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy panel composed of experts in primary and secondary HLH, pediatric and adult HLH, infectious disease, rheumatology and hematology, oncology, and cellular therapy. Through this effort, we provide an overview of the underlying biology of classical primary and secondary HLH, explore its relationship with similar manifestations following CAR T cell infusions, and propose the term "immune effector cell-associated HLH-like syndrome (IEC-HS)" to describe this emergent toxicity. We also delineate a framework for identifying IEC-HS and put forward a grading schema that can be used to assess severity and facilitate cross-trial comparisons. Additionally, given the critical need to optimize outcomes for patients experiencing IEC-HS, we provide insight into potential treatment approaches and strategies to optimize supportive care and delineate alternate etiologies that should be considered in a patient presenting with IEC-HS. By collectively defining IEC-HS as a hyperinflammatory toxicity, we can now embark on further study of the pathophysiology underlying this toxicity profile and make strides toward a more comprehensive assessment and treatment approach.

Abstract
Combined advances in haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and intensive care management have improved the survival of patients with haematological malignancies admitted to the intensive care unit. In cases of refractory respiratory failure or refractory cardiac failure, these advances have led to a renewed interest in advanced life support therapies, such as extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), previously considered inappropriate for these patients due to their poor prognosis. Given the scarcity of evidence-based guidelines on the use of ECMO in patients receiving HCT and the need to provide equitable and sustainable access to ECMO, the European Society of Intensive Care Medicine, the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization, and the International ECMO Network aimed to develop an expert consensus statement on the use of ECMO in adult patients receiving HCT. A steering committee with expertise in ECMO and HCT searched the literature for relevant articles on ECMO, HCT, and immune effector cell therapy, and developed opinion statements through discussions following a Quaker-based consensus approach. An international panel of experts was convened to vote on these expert opinion statements following the Research and Development/University of California, Los Angeles Appropriateness Method. The Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation statement was followed to prepare this Position Paper. 36 statements were drafted by the steering committee, 33 of which reached strong agreement after the first voting round. The remaining three statements were discussed by all members of the steering committee and expert panel, and rephrased before an additional round of voting. At the conclusion of the process, 33 statements received strong agreement and three weak agreement. This Position Paper could help to guide intensivists and haematologists during the difficult decision-making process regarding ECMO candidacy in adult patients receiving HCT. The statements could also serve as a basis for future research focused on ECMO selection criteria and bedside management.

Abstract
Endothelial dysfunction underlies many of the major complications following hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), including transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA), veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS), and engraftment syndrome (ES). Emerging evidence similarly implicates endothelitis and microangiopathy in severe COVID-19-related multi-system organ dysfunction. Given the overlap in these two illness states, we hypothesize that prior COVID-19 infection may increase risk for HCT-related endotheliopathies. This retrospective, multicenter study included patients aged 0-25 years who underwent autologous or allogeneic HCT for any indication between January 1, 2020 and September 21, 2021, with close attention to those infected with COVID-19 in either the six months prior to transplant or twelve months following transplant. Incidences of TA-TMA, VOD/SOS, and ES were compared among patients with COVID-19 infection pre-HCT and post-HCT, as well as with historical controls who were never infected with SARS-CoV-2. Those who underwent HCT following COVID-19 infection displayed significantly increased rates of TA-TMA compared to those who were never infected. Additionally, our data suggests a similar trend for increased VOD/SOS and ES rates, although this did not reach statistical significance. Therefore, a history of COVID-19 infection prior to undergoing HCT may be a nonmodifiable risk factor for endothelial-related complications following HCT. Further studies are warranted to better clarify this relationship among larger cohorts and in the era of the Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variants.

Abstract
Tisagenlecleucel is associated with remarkable outcomes in treating patients up to the age of 25 years with refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Yet, due to unique and potentially life-threatening complications, access remains limited to higher-resource and certified centers. Reports of inequity and related disparities in care are emerging. In this multicenter study of ALL patients admitted for anti-leukemia therapy, who required pediatric intensive care (ICU) support (n = 205), patients receiving tisagenlecleucel (n = 39) were compared to those receiving conventional chemotherapy (n = 166). The median time to ICU transfer was 6 (0–43) versus 1 (0–116) days, respectively (p < 0.0001). There was no difference in the use of vasopressor, ionotropic, sedating, and/or paralytic agents between groups, but use of dexamethasone was higher among tisagenlecleucel patients. Patients receiving tisagenlecleucel were more likely to have cardiorespiratory toxicity (p = 0.0002), but there were no differences in diagnostic interventions between both groups and/or differences in ICU length of stay and/or overall hospital survival. Toxicities associated with tisagenlecleucel are generally reversible, and our findings suggest that resource utilization once admitted to the ICU may be similar among patients with ALL receiving tisagenlecleucel versus conventional chemotherapy. As centers consider improved access to care and the feasibility of tisagenlecleucel certification, our study may inform strategic planning.

Abstract
AbstractThe aim of the study is to examine the relationship between fluid overload (FO) and severity of respiratory dysfunction in children post-hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome (PARDS). This investigation was a secondary analysis of a multicenter retrospective cohort of children (1month to 21 years) post-allogeneic HCT with PARDS receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) from 2009 to 2014. Daily FO % (FO%) and daily oxygenation index (OI) were calculated for each patient up to the first week of IMV (day 0 = intubation). Linear mixed-effect regression was employed to examine whether FO% and OI were associated on any day during the study period. In total, 158 patients were included. Severe PARDS represented 63% of the cohort and had higher mortality (78 vs. 42%, p <0.001), fewer ventilator free days at 28 (0 [IQR 0–0] vs. 14 [IQR 0–23], p <0.001), and 60 days (0 [IQR 0–27] v. 45 [IQR 0–55], p <0.001) relative to non-severe PARDS. Increasing FO% was strongly associated with higher OI (p <0.001). For children with 10% FO, OI was higher by nearly 5 points (adjusted β 4.6, 95% CI [2.9, 6.3]). In subgroup analyses, the association between FO% and OI was strongest among severe PARDS (p <0.001) and during the first 3 days elapsed from intubation (p <0.001). FO% was associated with lower PaO2/FiO2 (adjusted β −1.92, 95% CI [−3.11, −0.73], p = 0.002), but not mean airway pressure (p = 0.746). In a multicenter cohort of children post-HCT with PARDS, FO was independently associated with oxygenation impairment. The associations were strongest among children with severe PARDS and early in the course of IMV.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR T) therapy is a revolutionary treatment for pediatric, adolescent and young adult patients (AYA) with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia. While the landscape of immunotherapy continues to rapidly evolve, widespread use of CAR T therapy is limited and many questions remain regarding the durability of CAR T therapy, methods to avoid CAR T therapy resistance and the role of consolidative stem cell transplant. Modified strategies to develop effective and persistent CAR T cells at lower costs and decreased toxicities are warranted. In this review we present current indications, limitations and future directions of CAR T therapy for ALL in the pediatric and AYA population.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Noninvasive ventilation (NIV) has become more studied in immunocompromised patients. However, it has not been studied in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients, who have higher mortality and higher pulmonary complication rates than other immunocompromised patients. This population may be prone to negative effects from this treatment modality. The aim of this study was to determine whether NIV use is associated with worse outcomes in this vulnerable patient population. METHODS A secondary analysis of a retrospective multi-center database was performed. Twelve pediatric ICUs across the United States enrolled HCT subjects from 2009-2014 that were admitted to the pediatric ICU (PICU) with the diagnosis of acute respiratory failure. Subjects exposed to NIV prior to intubation were compared against those not exposed to NIV. Our primary outcome was all-cause mortality at 90 d; secondary outcomes included ventilator-free days (VFD) at 28 d and development of pediatric ARDS. Multivariable logistic and linear regression models were constructed using variables significant on univariable analysis. RESULTS Two-hundred eleven subjects were included. Of these, 82 (39%) received NIV prior to intubation. Those that received NIV prior to intubation were older (13 vs 6 y, P < .001) and more commonly diagnosed with respiratory distress (90% vs 74%, P = .004). On multivariable analysis, NIV use prior to intubation was associated with a higher PICU mortality (hazard ratio 1.51 [95% CI 1.18-2.28], P = .02) and fewer VFD at 28 d (β -3.50 [95% CI -6.09 to 0.91], P = .008). Those with NIV exposure prior to intubation also had higher rates of development of pediatric ARDS (95% vs 78%, P = .001). CONCLUSIONS In this cohort of children post-HCT, NIV use prior to intubation was associated with worse outcomes. The benefits and risks of NIV in this patient population should be carefully evaluated prior to its use, and careful patient selection is crucial for its optimal utilization.

Abstract
Abstract
Advances in RNA and DNA profiling have identified four core molecular subgroups of medulloblastoma of prognostic significance: Sonic Hedgehog (SHH) subtype, WNT subtype, Group 3, and Group 4. Infants and young children with SHH medulloblastoma have demonstrated a favorable outcome in clinical trials utilizing either high-dose chemotherapy (“Head Start”) or a combination of intravenous and intraventricular methotrexate (HIT-SKK). Two recently conducted clinical trials (COG ACNS1221 and St. Jude – SJYC07) failed to demonstrate similar survival advantage with conventional dose chemotherapy and without intraventricular methotrexate. “Head Start” 4 (HS 4) is a prospective randomized clinical trial that tailors treatment based on medulloblastoma molecular subgroups and response to induction chemotherapy to compare the efficacy of one versus versus three (tandem) cycles of myeloablative therapy. Eligibility includes newly diagnosed children less than six years of age with localized medulloblastoma. Eligible patients with SHH medulloblastoma were considered “low-risk” and non-randomly assigned to receive three cycles of induction chemotherapy (vincristine, cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, etoposide, and high-dose methotrexate) followed by consolidation with single cycle of myeloablative chemotherapy (thiotepa, carboplatin, etoposide) and autologous hematopoietic progenitor cell rescue. Patients with less than a complete response after three induction cycles received two additional cycles prior to consolidation therapy. Only children between 6 -10 years old, or those with confirmed residual tumor post-consolidation, were meant to receive irradiation after consolidation. Twenty-eight children with localized SHH medulloblastoma were enrolled on the trial with a median age of 2.1 years (range: 0.3-5.9 years). Median follow-up for this cohort is 29.6 months (range: 7.0-58.6 months). The estimated 3-year event-free (EFS) and overall survival (OS) is 96% (CI: 89-100%) and 100%, respectively. The estimated 3-year EFS for SHH subtype 1 and 2 patients is 100% and 95%, respectively (p=0.65). None of the M0 SHH medulloblastoma patients received irradiation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Short telomere syndrome (STS) in children may result in phenotypically heterogenous clinical spectrum ranging from completely asymptomatic to typical dyskeratosis congenita (DC). Patients with this cancer predisposition syndrome may have multiple organ dysfunctions including pulmonary fibrosis, liver cirrhosis, and bone marrow failure. Not all mutations in telomerase or telomere genes have been identified, and STS may pose a diagnostic and management challenge. METHODS A retrospective chart review and literature search were done for this report. RESULTS Here, we report a case of atypical DC with a heterozygous germline missense mutation in the postmeiotic segregation increased 2 (PMS2) gene, exon 5, (c.466A>G (p. Thr156Ala)). The PMS2 (a mismatch repair protein) gene is known to be an important mediator of telomere-induced aging. The patient was transfusion dependent and underwent successful umbilical cord blood transplant using a non-myeloablative regimen with alemtuzumab, fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and total body irradiation. CONCLUSION In this case of atypical DC with a previously unreported germline missense mutation in PMS2, the patient was successfully treated with an umbilical cord blood transplant with a non-myeloablative regimen.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The last decade has seen improved outcomes for children requiring extracorporeal life support as well as for children undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation. Thus, given the historically poor survival of hematopoietic cell transplantation patients using extracorporeal life support, the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators' hematopoietic cell transplantation and cancer immunotherapy subgroup aimed to characterize the utility of extracorporeal life support in facilitating recovery from critical cardiorespiratory illnesses in pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients. DATA SOURCES All available published data were identified using a set of PubMed search terms for pediatric extracorporeal life support and hematopoietic cell transplantation. STUDY SELECTION All articles that provided original reports of pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients who underwent extracorporeal life support were included. Sixty-four manuscripts met search criteria. Twenty-four were included as primary reports of pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients who underwent extracorporeal life support (11 were single case reports, four single institution case series, two multi-institution case series, and seven registry reports from Extracorporeal Life Support Organization, Pediatric Heath Information System, and Virtual Pediatric Systems). DATA EXTRACTION All 24 articles were reviewed by first and last authors and a spread sheet was constructed including sample size, potential biases, and conclusions. DATA SYNTHESIS Discussions regarding incorporation of available evidence into our clinical practice were held at biannual meetings, as well as through email and virtual meetings. An expert consensus was determined through these discussions and confirmed through a modified Delphi process. CONCLUSIONS Extracorporeal life support in hematopoietic cell transplantation patients is being used with increasing frequency and potentially improving survival. The Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators hematopoietic cell transplantation-cancer immunotherapy subgroup has developed a framework to guide physicians in decision-making surrounding extracorporeal life support candidacy in pediatric hematopoietic cell transplantation patients. In addition to standard extracorporeal life support considerations, candidacy in the hematopoietic cell transplantation population should consider the following six factors in order of consensus agreement: 1) patient comorbidities; 2) underlying disease necessitating hematopoietic cell transplantation; 3) hematopoietic cell transplantation toxicities, 4) family and patient desires for goals of care; 5) hematopoietic cell transplantation preparatory regimen; and 6) graft characteristics. Although risk assessment may be individualized, data are currently insufficient to clearly delineate ideal candidacy. Therefore, we urge the onco-critical care community to collaborate and capture data to provide better evidence to guide physicians' decision-making in the future.

Abstract
While advancements in cellular therapy have improved outcomes for patients with refractory leukemia, severe infections may hinder access. Granulocyte transfusions, in combination with anti-microbial therapy, may be a safe option to facilitate candidacy for chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy in patients with leukemia and prolonged immune-compromised status.

Abstract
Use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) in children receiving haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and immune effector cell therapy is controversial and evidence-based guidelines have not been established. Remarkable advancements in HCT and immune effector cell therapies have changed expectations around reversibility of organ dysfunction and survival for affected patients. Herein, members of the Extracorporeal Life Support Organization (ELSO), Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators (PALISI) Network (HCT and cancer immunotherapy subgroup), the Pediatric Diseases Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), the supportive care committee of the Pediatric Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Consortium (PTCTC), and the Pediatric Intensive Care Oncology Kids in Europe Research (POKER) group of the European Society of Pediatric and Neonatal Intensive Care (ESPNIC) provide consensus recommendations on the use of ECMO in children receiving HCT and immune effector cell therapy. These are the first international, multidisciplinary consensus-based recommendations on the use of ECMO in this patient population. This Review provides a clinical decision support tool for paediatric haematologists, oncologists, and critical care physicians during the difficult decision-making process of ECMO candidacy and management. These recommendations can represent a base for future research studies focused on ECMO selection criteria and bedside management.

Abstract
The use of flexible bronchoscopy (FB) with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) to diagnose and manage pulmonary complications has been shown to be safe in adult cancer patients, but whether its use is safe in pediatric cancer patients remains unclear. Thus, to describe the landscape of FB outcomes in pediatric cancer patients and to help define the populations most likely to benefit from the procedure, we undertook a retrospective review of FBs performed in patients younger than 21 years treated at our institution from 2002 to 2017. We found that a greater volume of total fluid instilled during BAL was significantly associated with increased probabilities of positive BAL culture (p=0.042), positive bacterial BAL culture (p=0.037), and positive viral BAL culture (p=0.0496). In more than half of the FB cases, findings resulted in alterations in antimicrobial treatment. Our study suggests that for pediatric cancer patients, FB is safe, likely provides diagnostic and/or therapeutic benefits, and has implications for treatment decisions.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) requires an intensive pre- and post-procedure course that leads to symptoms including fatigue, nausea/vomiting, and pain, all of which interfere significantly with activities of daily living. These symptoms place a substantial burden on patients during the time period surrounding transplant as well as during long-term recovery. The MD Anderson Symptom Inventory (MDASI) is a symptom-reporting survey that has been successfully used in adult patients with cancer and may have utility in the adolescent and young adult (AYA) population. At the Children’s Cancer Hospital at MD Anderson Cancer Center, we adopted a modified version of the MDASI, the MDASI-adolescent (MDASI-Adol), as a standard of care for clinical practice in assessing the symptom burden of patients in the peri-transplant period. We then conducted a retrospective chart review to describe the clinical utility of implementing this symptom-screening tool in AYA patients admitted to our pediatric stem cell transplant service. Here, we report our findings on the symptom burden experienced by pediatric and AYA patients undergoing stem cell transplantation as reported on the MDASI-Adol. Our study confirmed that the MDASI-Adol was able to identify a high symptom burden related to HSCT in the AYA population and that it can be used to guide symptom-specific interventions prior to transplant and during recovery. Implementing a standard symptom-screening survey proved informative to our clinical practice and could mitigate treatment complications and alleviate symptom burden.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinases are proteins involved in physiological cell functions including proliferation, differentiation, and survival. However, the dysregulation of tyrosine kinase pathways occurs in malignancy, including hematological leukemias such as chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). Particularly, the fusion oncoprotein BCR-ABL1 in CML and the B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway in CLL are critical for leukemogenesis. Therapeutic management of these two hematological conditions was fundamentally changed in recent years, making the role of conventional chemotherapy nearly obsolete. The first, second, and third generation inhibitors (imatinib, dasatinib, nilotinib, bosutinib, and ponatinib) of BCR-ABL1 and the allosteric inhibitor asciminib showed deep genetic and molecular remission rates in CML, leading to the evaluation of treatment discontinuation in prospective trials. The irreversible BTK inhibitors (ibrutinib, acalabrutinib, zanubrutinib, tirabrutinib, and spebrutinib) covalently bind to the C481 amino acid of BTK. The reversible BTK inhibitor pirtobrutinib has a different binding site, overcoming resistance associated with mutations at C481. The PI3K inhibitors (idelalisib and duvelisib) are also effective in CLL but are currently less used because of their toxicity profiles. These tyrosine kinase inhibitors are well-tolerated, do have some associated in-class side effects that are manageable, and have remarkably improved outcomes for patients with hematologic malignancies.

Abstract
Isolated extramedullary relapse of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) occurs in soft tissues and various organs outside the testis and central nervous system. Treatments such as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and more novel modalities such as immunotherapy have eradicated ALL at extramedullary sites. In some instances, survival times for relapsed ALL at these sites are longer than those for relapsed disease involving only the bone marrow. Isolated relapse of ALL in the myocardium is rare, especially in children, making diagnosis and treatment of it difficult. More recent treatment options such as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy carry a high risk of cytokine release syndrome and associated risk of worsening cardiac function. Herein we present the case of an 11-year-old boy who presented with relapsed symptomatic B-cell ALL in the myocardium following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. This is an unusual presentation of relapsed ALL and this case demonstrates the associated challenges in its diagnosis and treatment. The case report is followed by a literature review of the advances in treatment of pediatric leukemia and their application to extramedullary relapse of this disease in particular.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the associations between early cumulative fluid balance (CFB) and outcomes among critically ill pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients with acute respiratory failure, and determine if these associations vary by treatment with renal replacement therapy (RRT). METHODS We performed a secondary analysis of a multicenter retrospective cohort of patients (1mo - 21yrs) post-allogeneic HCT with acute respiratory failure treated with invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) from 2009 to 2014. Fluid intake and output were measured daily for the first week of IMV (day 0 = day of intubation). The exposure, day 3 CFB (CFB from day 0 through day 3 of IMV), was calculated using the equation [Fluid in - Fluid out] (liters)/[PICU admission weight](kg)*100. We measured the association between day 3 CFB and PICU mortality with logistic regression, and the rate of extubation at 28 and 60 days with competing risk regression (PICU mortality = competing risk). RESULTS 198 patients were included in the study. Mean % CFB for the cohort was positive on day 0 of IMV, and increased further on days 1-7 of IMV. For each 1% increase in day 3 CFB, the odds of PICU mortality were 3% higher (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.03, 95% CI 1.00-1.07), and the rate of extubation was 3% lower at 28 days (adjusted subdistribution hazard ratio (aSHR) 0.97, 95% CI 0.95-0.98) and 3% lower at 60 days (aSHR 0.97, 95% CI 0.95-0.98). When day 3 CFB was dichotomized, 161 (81%) had positive and 37 (19%) had negative day 3 CFB. Positive day 3 CFB was associated with higher PICU mortality (aOR 3.42, 95% CI 1.48-7.87) and a lower rate of extubation at 28 days (aSHR 0.30, 95% CI 0.18-0.48) and 60 days (aSHR 0.30, 95% 0.19-0.48). On stratified analysis, the association between positive day 3 CFB and PICU mortality was significantly stronger in those not treated with RRT (no RRT: aOR 9.11, 95% CI 2.29-36.22; RRT: aOR 1.40, 95% CI 0.42-4.74). CONCLUSIONS Among critically ill pediatric allogeneic HCT recipients with acute respiratory failure, positive and increasing early CFB were independently associated with adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Vitamin D not only plays an important role in bone metabolism but is also involved in multiple immune-mediated processes in the body which may be adversely affected in those with low levels. Most pediatric studies evaluating the association of vitamin D in patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT are single-center studies. We present the results of retrospective study at 5 centers across the United States in pediatric patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT. (VDD) and (VDI) were defined by vitamin D levels of <20 ng/ml and 21-30 ng/ml, respectively. The mean vitamin D levels pre-HSCT, day +30, and +100 were suggestive of VDI, but normalized thereafter. We compared the transplant characteristics and outcomes in 233 patients with VDD and VDI and those with normal levels and found no statistical difference in neutrophil or platelet engraftment, infections (viral, bacterial, or fungal) post-HSCT, length of hospital stay during HSCT, graft failure, acute or chronic GvHD, survival at day +100 and 1 year, or relapse of primary malignancy. We conclude that VDI or deficiency does not affect any of the common transplant variables after allogeneic HSCT in children. There is a need of a large multicenter prospective study to evaluate its role further.

Abstract
Rationale Little is known on the use of noninvasive ventilation (NIPPV) in pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) patients. Objective We sought to describe the landscape of NIPPV use and to identify risk factors for failure to inform future investigation or quality improvement. Methods This is a multicenter, retrospective observational cohort of 153 consecutive children post-HCT requiring NIPPV from 2010-2016. Results 97 (63%) failed NIPPV. Factors associated with failure on univariate analysis included: longer oxygen use prior to NIPPV (p=0.04), vasoactive agent use (p<0.001), and higher respiratory rate at multiple hours of NIPPV use (1hr p=0.02, 2hr p=0.04, 4hr p=0.008, 8hr p=0.002). Using respiratory rate at 4 hours a multivariable model was constructed. This model demonstrated high ability to discriminate NIPPV failure (AUC=0.794) with the following results: respiratory rate >40 at 4 hours [aOR=6.3 9(95% CI: 2.4, 16.4), p<0.001] and vasoactive use [aOR=4.9 (95% CI: 1.9, 13.1), p=0.001]. Of note, 11 patients had a cardiac arrest during intubation (11%) and 3 others arrested prior to intubation. These 14 patients were closer to HCT [14 days (IQR:4, 73) vs 54 (IQR:21,117), p<0.01] and there was a trend toward beginning NIPPV outside of the PICU and arrest during/prior to intubation (p=0.056). Conclusions In this cohort respiratory rate at 4 hours and vasoactive use are independent risk factors of NIPPV failure. An objective model to predict which children may benefit from a trial of NIPPV, may also inform the timing of both NIPPV initiation and uncomplicated intubation.

Abstract
Introduction: Delirium occurs frequently in adults undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation, with significant associated morbidity. Little is known about the burden of delirium in children in the peri-transplant period. This study was designed to determine delirium rates, define risk factors (demographic and treatment related), and establish feasibility of multi-institutional bedside screening for delirium in children undergoing hematopoietic cell transplant. Methods: This is a multi-institutional point prevalence study. All subjects were prospectively screened for delirium twice daily using the Cornell Assessment of Pediatric Delirium over a 10-day period. De-identified data, including basic demographics and daily characteristics, were extracted from the electronic medical record. Results: Eleven North American institutions were included, 106 children were enrolled, and 883 hospital days were captured. Delirium screening was successfully completed on more than 98% of the study days. Forty-eight children (45%) developed delirium over the course of the 10-day study. Children were diagnosed with delirium on 161/883 study days, for an overall delirium rate of 18% per day. Higher delirium rates were noted in children <5 years old (aOR 0.41 for children over 5 years), and in association with specific medications (melatonin, steroids, and tacrolimus). Conclusion: Delirium was a frequent occurrence in our study cohort, with identifiable risk factors. Delirium screening is highly feasible in the pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant patient population. A large-scale prospective longitudinal study following children throughout their transplant course is urgently needed to fully describe the epidemiology of pediatric delirium, explore the effects of delirium on patient outcomes, and establish guidelines to prevent and treat delirium in the peri-transplant period.

Abstract
Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) is a potentially curative therapy for children and adolescent/young adults (AYA) with high-risk malignancies as well as some non-malignant genetic diseases. However, HCT may be associated with endotheliopathies and/or organ dysfunction that may progress to pediatric multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (pMODS) and require critical care intervention. Discipline specific scoring systems may be used to characterize individual organ dysfunction, but the extent to which they are used to prospectively monitor HCT patients with mild dysfunction is unknown. Further, separate scoring systems may be used to define risk of mortality and inform prognostication among those who require critical care support. Our understanding of the epidemiology, risk factors, morbidity, mortality, required monitoring, optimal prevention strategies and appropriate management of children undergoing HCT who develop organ dysfunction, endotheliopathies and/or progress to pMODS is poor. Discipline-specific registries and clinical studies have described improving outcomes for children undergoing HCT, including those who require critical care support; however, longitudinal studies/prospective registries that capture common data elements among HCT patients with and without organ dysfunction, endotheliopathies and pMODS are needed to facilitate inter-disciplinary collaboration and optimally characterize the risk profiles, define screening and prophylaxis regimens and mitigate toxicity.

Abstract
Cancer immunotherapies are associated with remarkable therapeutic response rates but also with unique and severe toxicities, which potentially result in rapid deterioration in health. The number of clinical applications for novel immune effector-cell therapies, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing cells, and other immunotherapies, such as immune-checkpoint inhibitors, is increasing. In this Consensus Statement, members of the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators (PALISI) Network Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Cancer Immunotherapy (HCT-CI) Subgroup, Paediatric Diseases Working Party (PDWP) of the European Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT), Supportive Care Committee of the Pediatric Transplantation and Cellular Therapy Consortium (PTCTC) and MD Anderson Cancer Center CAR T Cell Therapy-Associated Toxicity (CARTOX) Program collaborated to provide updated comprehensive recommendations for the care of children, adolescents and young adults receiving cancer immunotherapies. With these recommendations, we address emerging toxicity mitigation strategies, we advocate for the characterization of baseline organ function according to age and discipline-specific criteria, we recommend early critical care assessment when indicated, with consideration of reversibility of underlying pathology (instead of organ failure scores) to guide critical care interventions, and we call for researchers, regulatory agencies and sponsors to support and facilitate early inclusion of young patients with cancer in well-designed clinical trials.

Abstract
Pediatric, adolescent and young adult (AYA) patients receiving novel cancer immunotherapies may develop associated toxicities with overlapping signs and symptoms that are not always easily distinguished from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection/clinical sequelae. We describe 2 diagnostically challenging cases of SARS-CoV-2 and Multi-Inflammatory Syndrome-Adult (MIS-A), in patients with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia following cellular therapy administration and review evolving characterization of both the natural course of SARS-CoV-2 infection and toxicities experienced in younger cancer immunotherapy patients. Vigilant monitoring for unique presentations and epidemiologic surveillance to promptly detect changes in incidence of either condition may be warranted.

Abstract
Pediatric organ failure and transplant populations face significant risks of morbidity and mortality. The risk of organ failure itself may be disproportionately higher among pediatric oncology patients, as cancer may originate within and/or metastasize to organs and adversely affect their function. Additionally, cancer directed therapies are frequently toxic to organs and may contribute to failure. Recent reports suggest that nearly half of providers find it difficult to provide prognostic information regarding organ failure due to unknown disease trajectories. Unfortunately, there is a lack of uniform methodology in detecting the early symptoms of organ failure, which may delay diagnosis, initiation of treatment and hinder prognostic planning. There remains a wide array of outstanding scientific questions regarding organ failure in pediatrics but emerging data may change the landscape of prognostication. Liquid biopsy, in which disease biomarkers are detected in bodily fluids, offers a noninvasive alternative to tissue biopsy and may improve prompt detection of organ failure and prognostication. Here, we review potential liquid biopsy biomarkers for organ failure, which may be particularly useful among pediatric oncology patients. We synthesized information from publications obtained on PubMed, Google Scholar, clinicaltrials.gov, and Web of Science and categorized our findings based on the type of biomarker used to detect organ failure. We highlight the advantages and disadvantages specific to each type of organ failure biomarker. While much work needs to be done to advance this field and validate its applicability to pediatric cancer patients facing critical care complications, herein, we highlight promising areas for future discovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Active surveillance for transfusion reactions is critically important among pediatric patients undergoing chemotherapy. Among pediatric-adolescent-young-adult (AYA) hematology/oncology patients, who have been typically excluded from transfusion reaction studies, this profile remains poorly characterized. METHODS We assessed the incidence and clinical characteristics of transfusion reactions (n = 3246 transfusions) in this population (n = 201 patients) at our center. FINDINGS The incidence of adjudicated transfusion reactions was 2·04%. The incidence was higher for platelet (2·78%) compared to packed red blood cell transfusions (1·49%) (p = 0·0149). The majority (61·4%) of all reactions were classified as febrile non-haemolytic transfusion, while 35·7% were considered allergic, and 2·9% were classified as transfusion-associated circulatory overload. The incidence of transfusion reactions in patients who were pre-medicated was higher (2·51%) than in patients who were not (1·52%) (p = 0·0406). Sub-set analysis revealed a 3·95% incidence of adjudicated transfusion reactions among recipients of immune effector cells (IECs) (n = 3), all of which occurred during the potential window for cytokine release syndrome; two-thirds of these reactions were severe/potentially life-threatening. INTERPRETATION The incidence of transfusion reactions among pediatric-AYA hematology/oncology patients may be lower than the general pediatric population. Patients with a prior history of transfusion reactions and those receiving platelet transfusions may be at higher risk for reaction. From our limited sample, IEC recipients may be at risk for severe transfusion reactions. Large multi-center prospective studies are needed to characterize transfusion reactions in this population. Appropriate characterization of reactions in this population may inform risk stratification and mitigate missed opportunities for prompt recognition and appropriate management. FUNDING None.

Abstract
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) therapies such as tisagenlecleucel, indicated for children and young adults with relapsed and/or refractory CD19+ acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), have been associated with striking treatment outcomes and overall survival. Yet, they are also associated with unique and potentially life-threatening complications. Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity (ICANS) are generally reversible complications of CAR therapies, but many patients may require critical care support especially if they are not promptly recognized and appropriately managed by frontline healthcare staff. As CAR therapies become more widely available, it is important that inter-professional staff members be aware of general principles regarding diagnosis and management. We hypothesized that an inter-professional education (IPE) simulation-based education intervention (CAR-TEAM) would improve knowledge base and confidence regarding complications of CAR therapies among inter-professional staff. Here, we demonstrate that following CAR-TEAM training, >90% of participants demonstrated knowledge proficiency and confidence in the IPE content area. CAR-TEAM training may serve as an important tool to establish initial and continued competency among sites introducing CAR therapies.

Abstract
New diagnostic criteria and severity grading for sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS) among pediatric and adolescent young adult (AYA) patients have been recently endorsed by international consensus. The extent to which these have been adopted in the US remains unclear. We sought to assess the potential impact via retrospective application of these criteria among patients treated at a large academic center in the United States. This is a single center retrospective study of pediatric-AYA patients who underwent hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) between July 2009 and 2019. The incidence of SOS was assessed using historic Baltimore and Seattle diagnostic criteria and compared with more recent guidelines (pEBMT) as proposed by the Paediatric Diseases Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation. Among 226 patients, application of the pEBMT diagnostic criteria was associated with a higher incidence (15.9%) and earlier time to diagnosis of SOS (by 2.5-3 days) compared with the modified Seattle (12.3%), and Baltimore (6.6%) criteria, respectively. The pEBMT criteria were sensitive and highly specific. Refractory thrombocytopenia was present in 75% of patients at diagnosis. Approximately 61% of patients with SOS were anicteric at diagnosis, though the majority (94.4%) developed hyperbilirubinemia as SOS progressed over a median time of 4 (1-57) days. Application of pEBMT criteria may have resulted in earlier indication for definitive treatment by 3 days. Timely diagnosis and administration of definitive treatment of SOS has been associated with improved outcomes. Prospective studies may better characterize the risk factors and natural course of SOS using pEBMT criteria.

Abstract
Abstract
Adoptive transfer of genetic engineered T cells becomes an effective approach in treating hematologic malignancies, but shows poor responses against solid tumors due to multifactorial reasons. Interleukin-12 exhibits robust T cell activating and anti-tumor efficacy. However, its clinical application was impeded due to the lethal adverse effects. We demonstrated previously that tumor targeted IL-12 (ttIL12) gene therapy avoids the toxicity of wildtype IL12 and effectively eliminate tumor metastasis. In this study, we developed a second generation of ttIL12— membrane-anchored ttIL-12 (attIL12)—to modify naive T cells, CD19CAR-T cells and OT1 T cells. This attIL12-modified T cells silent the toxicity of both IL12 and CAR-T cells associated cytokine release syndrome (CRS). Surprisingly, this ATTIL12-T cell therapy is able to eliminate multiple types of tumors with either homo- or hetero-generous environment or large size. We are in full speed to prepare a phase I clinical trial.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We describe organisms found in the respiratory tracts of a multicenter cohort of pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients with respiratory failure. METHODS Twelve centers contributed up to 25 pediatric allogeneic HCT recipients requiring mechanical ventilation for respiratory failure to a retrospective database. Positive respiratory pathogens and method of obtaining sample were recorded. Outcomes were assessed using Mann-Whitney U test or chi-squared analysis. RESULTS Of the 222 patients in the database, ages 1 month through 21 years, 34.6% had a positive respiratory culture. 105 pathogens were identified in 77 patients; of those, 48.6% were viral, 34.3% bacterial, 16.2% fungal, and 1% parasitic. PICU mortality with a respiratory pathogen was 68.8% compared to 54.9% for those without a respiratory pathogen (P = .045). Those with a positive respiratory pathogen had longer PICU length of stay, 20 days (IQR 14.0, 36.8) vs 15 (IQR 6.5, 32.0), P = .002, and a longer course of mechanical ventilation, 17 days (IQR 10, 29.5) vs 8 (3, 17), P < .0001. Method of pathogen identification, type of pathogen, and the presence of multiple pathogens were not associated with changes in PICU outcomes. CONCLUSIONS In this multicenter retrospective cohort of intubated pediatric post-HCT patients, there was high variability in the respiratory pathogens identified. Type of pathogen and method of detection did not affect PICU mortality. The presence of any organism leads to increased PICU mortality, longer PICU stay, and increased duration of mechanical ventilation suggesting that early detection and treatment of pathogens may be beneficial in this population.

Abstract
Sinusoidal obstructive syndrome, also known as hepatic veno-occlusive disease, is a potentially life-threatening complication that occurs in children undergoing haemopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT). Differences in the incidence of genetic predisposition and clinical presentation of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome between children and adults have rendered the historical Baltimore and Seattle diagnostic criteria insufficient for children. In 2017, the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) proposed the first paediatric diagnostic and severity grading guidelines for sinusoidal obstructive syndrome, intended for implementation across European centres. However, universally accepted paediatric criteria are needed to ensure prompt diagnosis, definitive treatment, and improved outcomes for children, adolescents, and young adults with sinusoidal obstructive syndrome, and to facilitate international clinical research collaboration. We convened an international panel of multidisciplinary experts including physicians with expertise in HSCT, paediatric intensive care, nephrology, hepatology, radiology, pathology, and transfusion medicine; HSCT advanced-practice providers and medical trainees; pharmacists; and translational and basic science researchers from the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators Network, the EBMT, the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplant Consortia, and several other institutions with extensive experience in sinusoidal obstructive syndrome. Panellists convened at The University of Texas, MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX, USA) in February, 2019, to evaluate the available evidence. In this expert position statement paper, we provide consensus recommendations for the international implementation of guidelines for the diagnosis, severity grading, and treatment of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome among children, adolescents, and young adults. We endorse universal adoption of paediatric diagnostic guidelines for sinusoidal obstruction syndrome as proposed by the EBMT, and provide implementation guidance for standardisation across centres; we have further proposed adjunctive use of age-appropriate organ-specific toxicity criteria for severity grading and provided prophylaxis and treatment considerations among children and adolescent and young adult patients. Key recommendations include: (1) liver biopsy, portal venous wedge pressure, and reversal of portal venous flow on Doppler ultrasonography should not be used for the routine diagnosis of sinusoidal obstructive syndrome in children, adolescents, and young adults; (2) platelet refractoriness can be defined as a corrected count increment of less than 5000-7500 following at least two sequential ABO-compatible fresh platelet transfusions; (3) hepatomegaly is best defined as an absolute increase of at least 1 cm in liver length at the midclavicular line; and if a baseline measurement is not available, hepatomegaly can be defined as greater than 2 SDs above normal for age; and (4) the presence and volume of ascites can be categorised as mild (minimal fluid by liver, spleen, or pelvis), moderate (<1 cm fluid), or severe (fluid in all three regions with >1 cm fluid in at least two regions).

Abstract
In this multicenter study, we investigated the kinetics of neutrophil recovery in relation to acuity and survival among 125 children undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) who required invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Recovery of neutrophils, whether prior to or after initiation of IMV, was associated with a significantly decreased risk of death relative to never achieving neutrophil recovery. A transient increase in acuity (by oxygenation index and vasopressor requirements) occurred among a subset of the patients who achieved neutrophil recovery after initiation of IMV; 61.5% of these patients survived to discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU). Improved survival among patients who subsequently achieved neutrophil recovery on IMV was not limited to those with peri-engraftment respiratory distress syndrome. The presence of a respiratory pathogen did not affect the risk of death while on IMV but was associated with an increased length of IMV (p < 0.01). Among patients undergoing HCT who develop respiratory failure and require advanced therapeutic support, neutrophil recovery at time of IMV and/or presence of a respiratory pathogen should not be used as determining factors when counseling families about survival.

Abstract
Abstract
The clinical utility of blood analysis such as circulating tumor cells (CTCs) has garnered increasing interest in recent years. However very few studies were conducted in pediatric cancer patients especially in brain tumor, osteosarcoma, and leukemia patients due to the lack of an effective tool to isolate/capture CTC from these patients. For example, only three independent studies were published to investigate CTC capture from adult brain tumor patients but zero studies were conducted with pediatric brain cancer patients. Our previous studies showed the high specificity of using cell surface vimentin (CSV) to identify and capture CTCs from various types of adult tumor patients using a manual isolation method. Here we present the first automated system for capturing CTCs across different types of pediatric tumors. This automated system utilizes the Abnova CytoQuest system loaded with the CSV antibody 84-1-coated microfluidic cassette for capturing CTCs from peripheral blood samples. This automated assay was very sensitive because as few as one tumor cell can be captured out from one million normal cells. Based on our preliminary study, our success rate for non-DIPG brain tumor, ALL, and AML patients is 100%. This success provides a potential opportunity for analyzing brain tumor genetic properties using blood samples instead of the invasive tumor biopsy; likewise, this high sensitivity assay opens up clinical opportunities to use this assay for transplant and treatment decision making.

Abstract
In 2017, an autologous chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy indicated for children and young adults with relapsed and/or refractory CD19+ acute lymphoblastic leukaemia became the first gene therapy to be approved in the USA. This innovative form of cellular immunotherapy has been associated with remarkable response rates but is also associated with unique and often severe toxicities, which can lead to rapid cardiorespiratory and/or neurological deterioration. Multidisciplinary medical vigilance and the requisite health-care infrastructure are imperative to ensuring optimal patient outcomes, especially as these therapies transition from research protocols to standard care. Herein, authors representing the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators (PALISI) Network Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) Subgroup and the MD Anderson Cancer Center CAR T Cell Therapy-Associated Toxicity (CARTOX) Program have collaborated to provide comprehensive consensus guidelines on the care of children receiving CAR T cell therapy.

Abstract
Primary isolated CNS presentation of HLH is exceedingly rare and typically associated with significant morbidity and mortality. We describe an adolescent patient with late-onset, primary isolated CNS HLH and a compound heterozygous PRF1 mutation (c50delT (p.L17 fs); c.1229G>C (p.R410P)), not previously reported with this phenotype. He was successfully treated with allogeneic HSCT following a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen, despite a high pre-HSCT comorbidity index. Two years after transplant, he is alive and in disease remission. While patients with systemic HLH and active CNS disease have relatively poorer outcomes, a high index of suspicion may aid with early diagnosis of primary isolated CNS HLH; prompt treatment with HSCT may be associated with improved cure and durable remission of this rare disease.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The effectiveness of high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV) in the pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant patient has not been established. We sought to identify current practice patterns of HFOV, investigate parameters during HFOV and their association with mortality, and compare the use of HFOV to conventional mechanical ventilation in severe pediatric ARDS. METHODS This is a retrospective analysis of a multi-center database of pediatric and young adult allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant subjects requiring invasive mechanical ventilation for critical illness from 2009 through 2014. Twelve United States pediatric centers contributed data. Continuous variables were compared using a Wilcoxon rank-sum test or a Kruskal-Wallis analysis. For categorical variables, univariate analysis with logistic regression was performed. RESULTS The database contains 222 patients, of which 85 subjects were managed with HFOV. Of this HFOV cohort, the overall pediatric ICU survival was 23.5% (n = 20). HFOV survivors were transitioned to HFOV at a lower oxygenation index than nonsurvivors (25.6, interquartile range 21.1-36.8, vs 37.2, interquartile range 26.5-52.2, P = .046). Survivors were transitioned to HFOV earlier in the course of mechanical ventilation, (day 0 vs day 2, P = .002). No subject survived who was transitioned to HFOV after 1 week of invasive mechanical ventilation. We compared subjects with severe pediatric ARDS treated only with conventional mechanical ventilation versus early HFOV (within 2 d of invasive mechanical ventilation) versus late HFOV. There was a trend toward difference in survival (conventional mechanical ventilation 24%, early HFOV 30%, and late HFOV 9%, P = .08). CONCLUSIONS In this large database of pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant subjects who had acute respiratory failure requiring invasive mechanical ventilation for critical illness with severe pediatric ARDS, early use of HFOV was associated with improved survival compared to late implementation of HFOV, and the subjects had outcomes similar to those treated only with conventional mechanical ventilation.

Abstract
Even though hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) is a potentially fatal complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), there is paucity of research on the management of associated multiorgan dysfunction. To help provide standardized care for the management of these patients, the HCT Subgroup of the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators and the Supportive Care Committee of the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplant Consortium, collaborated to develop evidence-based consensus guidelines. After conducting an extensive literature search, in part 2 of this series we discuss the management of fluids and electrolytes, renal dysfunction; ascites, pleural effusion, and transfusion and coagulopathy issues in patients with VOD. We consider the available evidence using the GRADE criteria.

Abstract
Veno-occlusive disease (VOD) is a common and potentially fatal complication in children undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). It occurs in about one-third of all patients undergoing transplantation and is fatal in 50% of patients with severe disease. Early intervention and specific treatment with defibrotide are associated with improved outcomes. However, there is a lack of supportive care guidelines for management of the multiorgan dysfunction seen in most cases. There is high variability in the management of VOD, which may contribute to the increased morbidity and mortality. Although there is ample research in the specific treatment of VOD, there is paucity of literature regarding the management of ascites, transfusions requirements, fluids and electrolyte dysfunction, delirium, and investigations in children with VOD. The joint working committees of the Pediatric Acute Lung Injury and Sepsis Investigators and the Pediatric Blood and Marrow Transplantation Consortium collaborated to develop a series of evidence-based supportive care guidelines for management of VOD. The quality of evidence was rated and recommendations were made using Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation criteria. This manuscript is part 1 of the series and focuses on the need to develop these guidelines; methodology used to establish the guidelines; and investigations needed for diagnosis, prophylaxis, and treatment of VOD in children.
