RESUMO

Background: Patients with B-cell lymphoma and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who receive chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy may experience clinically significant cytomegalovirus infection (CS-CMVi). However, risk factors for CS-CMVi are not well defined. The aims of our study were to identify risk factors for CS-CMVi and the association between CS-CMVi and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) in lymphoma and ALL patients after CAR-T therapy. Methods: We performed a retrospective single-center cohort analysis of CAR-T recipients between January 2018 and February 2021 for treatment of lymphoma and ALL. We collected data on demographics, oncologic history, CAR-T therapy-related complications, and infectious complications within 1 year of therapy. Results: Of 230 patients identified, 22 (10%) had CS-CMVi. At 1 year following CAR-T therapy, 75 patients (33%) developed relapsed disease and 95 (41%) died; NRM at 1 year was 37%. On Cox regression analysis, Asian or Middle Eastern race (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 13.71 [95% confidence interval {CI}, 5.41-34.74]), treatment of cytokine release syndrome/immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome with steroids (aHR, 6.25 [95% CI, 1.82-21.47]), lactate dehydrogenase at time of CAR-T therapy (aHR, 1.09 [95% CI, 1.02-1.16]), and CMV surveillance (aHR, 6.91 [95% CI, 2.77-17.25]) were independently associated with CS-CMVi. CS-CMVi was independently associated with NRM at 1 year after CAR-T therapy (odds ratio, 2.49 [95% CI, 1.29-4.82]). Conclusions: Further studies of immunologic correlatives and clinical trials to determine the efficacy of prophylactic strategies are needed to understand the role of CS-CMVi and post-CAR-T mortality.

RESUMO

In patients with relapsed DLBCL in complete remission (CR), autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (auto-HCT) and CAR-T therapy are both effective, but it is unknown which modality provides superior outcomes. We compared the efficacy of auto-HCT vs. CAR-T in patients with DLBCL in a CR. A retrospective observational study comparing auto-HCT (2015-2021) vs. CAR-T (2018-2021) using the Center for International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research registry. Median follow-up was 49.7 months for the auto-HCT and 24.7 months for the CAR-T cohort. Patients ages 18 and 75 with a diagnosis of DLBCL were included if they received auto-HCT (n = 281) or commercial CAR-T (n = 79) while in a CR. Patients undergoing auto-HCT with only one prior therapy line and CAR-T patients with a previous history of auto-HCT treatment were excluded. Endpoints included Progression-free survival (PFS), relapse rate, non-relapse mortality (NRM) and overall survival (OS). In univariate analysis, treatment with auto-HCT was associated with a higher rate of 2-year PFS (66.2% vs. 47.8%; p < 0.001), a lower 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (27.8% vs. 48% ; p < 0.001), and a superior 2-year OS (78.9% vs. 65.6%; p = 0.037). In patients with early (within 12 months) treatment failure, auto-HCT was associated with a superior 2-year PFS (70.9% vs. 48.3% ; p < 0.001), lower 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (22.8% vs. 45.9% ; p < 0.001) and trend for higher 2-year OS (82.4% vs. 66.1% ; p = 0.076). In the multivariable analysis, treatment with auto-HCT was associated with a superior PFS (hazard ratio 1.83; p = 0.0011) and lower incidence of relapse (hazard ratio 2.18; p < 0.0001) compared to CAR-T. In patients with relapsed LBCL who achieve a CR, treatment with auto-HCT is associated with improved clinical outcomes compared to CAR-T. These data support the consideration of auto-HCT in select patients with LBCL achieving a CR in the relapsed setting.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Neighborhood socioeconomic deprivation has been linked to adverse health outcomes, yet it is unclear whether neighborhood-level social determinants of health (SDOH) measures affect overall survival in adolescent and young adult patients with cancer. METHODS: This study used a diverse cohort of adolescent and young adult patients with cancer (N = 10 261) seen at MD Anderson Cancer Center. Zip codes were linked to Area Deprivation Index (ADI) values, a validated neighborhood-level SDOH measure, with higher ADI values representing worse SDOH. RESULTS: ADI was statistically significantly worse (P < .050) for Black (61.7) and Hispanic (65.3) patients than for White patients (51.2). Analysis of ADI by cancer type showed statistically significant differences, mainly driven by worse ADI in patients with cervical cancer (62.3) than with other cancers. In multivariable models including sex, age at diagnosis, cancer diagnosis, and race and ethnicity, risk of shorter survival for people residing in neighborhoods with the least favorable ADI quartile was greater than for individuals in the most favorable ADI quartile (hazard ratio = 1.09, 95% confidence interval = 1.00 to 1.19, P = .043). CONCLUSION: Adolescent and young adult patients with cancer and the worst ADI values experienced a nearly 10% increase in risk of dying than patients with more favorable ADI values. This effect was strongest among White adolescent and young adult survivors. Although the magnitude of the effect of ADI on survival was moderate, the presence of a relationship between neighborhood-level SDOH and survival among patients who received care at a tertiary cancer center suggests that ADI is a meaningful predictor of survival. These findings provide intriguing evidence for potential interventions aimed at supporting adolescent and young adult patients with cancer from disadvantaged neighborhoods.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The overall landscape of health-related quality of life (HRQoL) has not been thoroughly investigated in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer. Data are also lacking on how well HRQoL at the time of cancer diagnosis can prognosticate long-term survival in AYA survivors. PATIENTS AND METHODS: We included 3,497 survivors of AYA cancer (age 15-39 years at diagnosis) who completed the Short-Form 12 Health Survey (SF-12) HRQoL questionnaire at diagnosis. Physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) scores were generated, with scores <50 representing poor HRQoL. Differences in HRQoL by patient characteristics and tumor type were investigated using violin plots and t tests/analysis of variance. The effect of HRQoL on overall survival was assessed using Kaplan-Meier plots and Cox proportional hazards models. RESULTS: Overall mean PCS and MCS scores in this racially/ethnically diverse cohort (64% White, 19% Hispanic, 10% Black, and 7% other race/ethnicity) were 43.6 and 46.7, respectively. Women with breast cancer reported the most favorable PCS (50.8), and those with cervical cancer reported the lowest MCS (42.8). Age at diagnosis was associated positively with PCS (P<.001) and inversely with MCS (P<.001). Females had higher PCS yet lower MCS than males (both P<.001). Marginalized racial and ethnic populations reported lower PCS than White patients (P<.001). Physical and mental HRQoL were prognostic and associated with increased risk of poor survival (hazard ratio, 1.95; 95% CI, 1.72-2.21 for physical HRQoL, and 1.26; 95% CI, 1.13-1.40 for mental HRQoL). CONCLUSIONS: Physical and mental HRQoL at diagnosis vary across patient characteristics in AYA cancer survivors. Poor HRQoL at diagnosis may be a prognosticator of diminished overall survival among AYA cancer survivors.

RESUMO

Importance: Radiation therapy to doses of 24 to 36 Gy is currently used to treat indolent B-cell lymphoma of the ocular adnexa; however, ocular adverse effects are common. Objective: To determine if a response-adapted radiation therapy strategy will result in excellent disease outcomes while reducing orbital morbidity. Design, Setting, and Participants: This single-institution, phase 2 prospective nonrandomized controlled trial of a response-adapted strategy involved 50 evaluable patients with stage I to IV indolent B-cell lymphoma of the ocular adnexa enrolled between July 2015 and January 2021. This treatment approach was also retrospectively evaluated with a separate 55-patient cohort treated between March 2013 and October 2021. All data were analyzed between November 2021 and December 2023. Interventions: Patients were treated with ultralow-dose radiation therapy to 4 Gy in 2 fractions and assessed for response at 3-month intervals. Patients with persistent orbital lymphoma were offered an additional 20 Gy in 10 fractions to complete the response-adapted treatment. Main Outcome and Measures: The primary end point was 2-year local orbital control within the irradiated field after response-adapted therapy. Secondary end points included overall survival and complete response rate. Results: The 50 prospective patients were a median (range) of 63 (29-88) years old, and 31 (62%) were female. Among the 50 patients, 32 (64%) had mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, 12 (24%) had follicular lymphoma, and 6 (12%) had unclassifiable low-grade B-cell lymphoma. Thirty-one patients (62%) had stage I disease, and 36 (72%) were newly diagnosed. At a median follow-up of 37.4 (95% CI, 33.7-52.5) months, the 2-year local control rate was 89.4% (95% CI, 81.0%-98.7%), and the 2-year overall survival rate was 98.0% (95% CI, 94.1%-100%); 45 patients (90.0%; 95% CI, 78.2%-96.7%) experienced a complete response to response-adapted radiation, including 44 patients with a complete response to ultralow-dose radiation and 1 patient with a complete response after an additional 20 Gy. No local recurrences were observed among patients with a complete response to response-adapted therapy. No grade 3 or higher toxic effects were observed. In a planned subset analysis of 22 patients with newly diagnosed, untreated stage I mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma, the 2-year local control rate was 90.7% (95% CI, 79.2%-100%), and the 2-year freedom from distant relapse rate was 95.2% (95% CI, 86.6%-100%). Conclusion and Relevance: In this nonrandomized controlled trial, response-adapted ultralow-dose therapy for indolent orbital B-cell lymphoma resulted in reduced radiation exposure, negligible toxic effects, and excellent disease outcomes. Trial Registration: ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT02494700.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Given the favourable prognosis of patients with gastric mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, treatment-related toxicity should be minimised. We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of 4 Gy radiotherapy given in a response-adapted approach. METHODS: We conducted a single-centre, single-arm, prospective trial at MD Anderson Cancer Center (Houston, TX, USA) of response-adapted ultra-low-dose radiotherapy. Eligible patients were 18 years or older and had newly diagnosed or relapsed Helicobacter pylori-negative gastric MALT lymphoma, with stage I-IV disease. Given the expected low toxicity profile of treatment, performance status was not an exclusion criterion. Patients received external beam photon-based radiotherapy for a total dose of 4 Gy in two fractions. Patients with a complete response to 4 Gy via endoscopy and imaging at 3-4 months were observed; patients with a partial response were re-evaluated in 6-9 months. Residual disease at 9-13 months or stable or progressive disease at any time required additional treatment with 20 Gy. The primary endpoint was gastric complete response at 1 year (second evaluation timepoint) after 4 Gy treatment. All analyses were performed as intention to treat. This trial is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03680586) and is complete and closed to enrolment. FINDINGS: Between March 27, 2019, and Oct 12, 2021, we enrolled 24 eligible patients. The median age of participants was 67 years (IQR 58-74; range 40-85); 15 (63%) were female and nine (37%) male; 18 (75%) were White, four (17%) Asian, and two (8%) Hispanic; 20 (83%) had stage I disease, one (4%) stage II, and three (13%) stage IV. Median follow-up time was 36 months (IQR 26-42). 20 patients (83%) had a complete response to 4 Gy (16 at 3-4 months, four at 9-13 months); two patients received 20 Gy for symptomatic stable disease at 3-4 months and two for residual disease at 9-13 months; all had a complete response. The 3-year local control rate was 96% (95% CI 88-100), with one local relapse at 14 months after 4 Gy radiotherapy salvaged successfully with 20 Gy. One patient with stage IV disease had a distant relapse. The most common adverse events were grade 1 nausea (nine [38%] of 24 patients who received 4 Gy and two [50%] of four patients who received 20 Gy) and grade 1 abdominal pain (five [21%] of 24 and zero of four, respectively). No grade 3 or worse adverse events were noted, including no treatment-related deaths. INTERPRETATION: Most patients had a complete response after 4 Gy radiotherapy; all who required an additional 20 Gy had a complete response within 12 months. This response-adapted strategy could be used to select patients who would benefit from additional radiotherapy and spare others potential associated toxicity. FUNDING: National Cancer Institute.

RESUMO

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy, despite being a potentially curative therapy in relapsed or refractory (RR) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL), remains underutilized in older patients due to limited clinical data. We therefore studied the safety and efficacy of CAR-T therapy in older patients with RR LBCL in the real-world setting. Patients aged ≥65 years with RR LBCL, treated with anti-CD19 CAR-T therapy at 7 US institutions were included in this multicenter, retrospective, observational study. In total, 226 patients were included. Median age at infusion was 71 years (range 65-89). Best objective and complete response rates were 86% and 62%, respectively. Median follow-up after infusion was 18.3 months. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.9 months, with 6- and 12-month PFS estimates of 54% and 44%, respectively. The nonrelapse mortality (NRM) rate was 10.9% at day 180, primarily due to infections, and not impacted by the age groups. Grade ≥3 cytokine release syndrome and neurotoxicity occurred in 7% and 26%, respectively. In univariate analysis, no significant difference in PFS was seen regardless of the age groups or CAR-T type, whereas ECOG PS ≥2, elevated LDH, bulky disease, advanced stage, extranodal involvement, the need for bridging therapy, and prior bendamustine exposure were associated with shorter PFS. These findings support the use of CAR-T in older patients, including those aged ≥80 years. The age at CAR-T therapy did not influence safety, survival, and NRM outcomes. Older patients should not be excluded from receiving CAR-T therapy solely based on their chronological age.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Cancer is a life-threatening, stressful event, particularly for young adults due to delays and disruptions in their developmental transitions. Cancer treatment can also cause adverse long-term effects, chronic conditions, psychological issues, and decreased quality of life (QoL) among young adults. Despite numerous health benefits of health behaviors (eg, physical activity, healthy eating, no smoking, no alcohol use, and quality sleep), young adult cancer survivors report poor health behavior profiles. Determining the associations of stress (either cancer-specific or day-to-day stress), health behaviors, and QoL as young adult survivors transition to survivorship is key to understanding and enhancing these survivors' health. It is also crucial to note that the effects of stress on health behaviors and QoL may manifest on a shorter time scale (eg, daily within-person level). Moreover, given that stress spills over into romantic relationships, it is important to identify the role of spouses or partners (hereafter partners) in these survivors' health behaviors and QoL. OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate associations between stress, health behaviors, and QoL at both within- and between-person levels during the transition to survivorship in young adult cancer survivors and their partners, to identify the extent to which young adult survivors' and their partners' stress facilitates or hinders their own and each other's health behaviors and QoL. METHODS: We aim to enroll 150 young adults (aged 25-39 years at the time of cancer diagnosis) who have recently completed cancer treatment, along with their partners. We will conduct a prospective longitudinal study using a measurement burst design. Participants (ie, survivors and their partners) will complete a daily web-based survey for 7 consecutive days (a "burst") 9 times over 2 years, with the bursts spaced 3 months apart. Participants will self-report their stress, health behaviors, and QoL. Additionally, participants will be asked to wear an accelerometer to assess their physical activity and sleep during the burst period. Finally, dietary intake (24-hour diet recalls) will be assessed during each burst via telephone by research staff. RESULTS: Participant enrollment began in January 2022. Recruitment and data collection are expected to conclude by December 2024 and December 2026, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: To the best of our knowledge, this will be the first study that determines the interdependence of health behaviors and QoL of young adult cancer survivors and their partners at both within- and between-person levels. This study is unique in its focus on the transition to cancer survivorship and its use of a measurement burst design. Results will guide the creation of a developmentally appropriate dyadic psychosocial or behavioral intervention that improves both young adult survivors' and their partners' health behaviors and QoL and potentially their physical health.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) is an autologous anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy approved for relapsed/refractory (R/R) large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL). Despite extensive data supporting its use, outcomes stratified by race and ethnicity groups are limited. Here, we report clinical outcomes with axi-cel in patients with R/R LBCL by race and ethnicity in both real-world and clinical trial settings. In the real-world setting, 1290 patients who received axi-cel between 2017 and 2020 were identified from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research database; 106 and 169 patients were included from the ZUMA-1 and ZUMA-7 trials, respectively. Overall survival was consistent across race/ethnicity groups. However, non-Hispanic (NH) Black patients had lower overall response rate (OR, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.22-0.63) and lower complete response rate (OR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.33-0.97) than NH White patients. NH Black patients also had a shorter progression-free survival vs NH White (HR, 1.41; 95% CI, 1.04-1.90) and NH Asian patients (HR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.08-2.59). NH Asian patients had a longer duration of response than NH White (HR, 0.56; 95% CI, 0.33-0.94) and Hispanic patients (HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.30-0.97). There was no difference in cytokine release syndrome by race/ethnicity; however, higher rates of any-grade immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome were observed in NH White patients than in other patients. These results provide important context when treating patients with R/R LBCL with CAR T-cell therapy across different racial and ethnic groups. ZUMA-1 and ZUMA-7 (ClinicalTrials.gov identifiers: #NCT02348216 and #NCT03391466, respectively) are registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Prior studies have demonstrated that certain populations including older patients, racial/ethnic minority groups, and women are underrepresented in clinical trials. We performed a retrospective analysis of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) seen at MD Anderson Cancer Center (MDACC) to investigate the association between trial participation, race/ethnicity, travel distance, and neighborhood socioeconomic status (nSES). Using patient addresses, we ascertained nSES variables on educational attainment, income, poverty, racial composition, and housing at the census tract (CT) level. We also performed geospatial analysis to determine the geographic distribution of clinical trial participants and distance from patient residence to MDACC. We examined 3146 consecutive adult patients with NHL seen between January 2017 and December 2020. The study cohort was predominantly male and non-Hispanic White (NHW). The most common insurance types were private insurance and Medicare; only 1.1% of patients had Medicaid. There was a high overall participation rate of 30.5%, with 20.9% enrolled in therapeutic trials. In univariate analyses, lower participation rates were associated with lower nSES including higher poverty rates and living in crowded households. Racial composition of CT was not associated with differences in trial participation. In multivariable analysis, trial participation varied significantly by histology, and participation declined nonlinearly with age in the overall, follicular lymphoma, and diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) models. In the DLBCL subset, Hispanic patients had lower odds of participation than White patients (odds ratio, 0.36; 95% confidence interval, 0.21-0.62; P = .001). In our large academic cohort, race, sex, insurance type, and nSES were not associated with trial participation, whereas age and diagnosis were.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Little evidence exists on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on cancer survivors, limiting recommendations to improve health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in this population. We describe survivors' pandemic experiences and examine associations between COVID-19-related exposures, psychosocial experiences, and HRQoL. METHODS: Between May 2020-April 2021, survivors completed cross-sectional questionnaires capturing COVID-19-related exposures (e.g., exposure to virus, job loss); psychosocial experiences (i.e., COVID-19-related anxiety/depression, disruptions to health care and daily activities/social interactions, satisfaction with providers' response to COVID, financial hardship, perceived benefits of the pandemic, social support, and perceived stress management ability); and HRQoL. RESULTS: Data were collected from N = 11,325 survivors in the United States. Participants were mostly female (58%), White (89%) and non-Hispanic (88%), and age 63 on average. Breast cancer was the most common diagnosis (23%). Eight percent of participants reported being exposed to COVID-19; 1% tested positive. About 6% of participants lost their jobs, while 24% lost household income. Nearly 30% avoided attending in-person oncology appointments because of the pandemic. Poorer HRQoL was associated with demographic (younger age; female; non-Hispanic White), clinical (Medicare; stage IV disease; hematologic/digestive/respiratory system cancer), and psychosocial factors (low perceived benefits and stress management ability; more disruption to health care and daily activities/social interactions; financial hardship). CONCLUSIONS: COVID-19-related stressors were associated with various psychosocial experiences in cancer survivors, and these psychosocial experiences were associated with HRQoL above and beyond demographic and clinical factors.

RESUMO

Hepatosplenic T-cell lymphoma (HSTCL) is a rare and aggressive type of peripheral T-cell lymphoma with median overall survival (OS) of approximately 1 year. Data on the effectiveness of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is limited, as is the choice between autologous HCT (auto-HCT) and allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT) in the treatment of this disease. To evaluate the outcome of patients with HSTCL who underwent either auto-HCT or allo-HCT, we performed a multi-institutional retrospective cohort study to assess outcomes of HCT in HSTCL patients. Fifty-three patients with HSTCL were included in the study. Thirty-six patients received an allo-HCT and 17 received an auto-HCT. Thirty-five (66%) were males. Median age at diagnosis was 38 (range 2 to 64) years. Median follow-up for survivors was 75 months (range 8 to 204). The median number of prior lines of therapy was 1 (range 1 to 4). Median OS and progression-free survival (PFS) for the entire cohort were 78.5 months (95% CI: 25 to 79) and 54 months (95% CI: 18 to 75), respectively. There were no significant differences in OS (HR: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.28 to 1.45, P = .245) or PFS (HR: 0.7, 95% CI: 0.32 to 1.57, P = .365) between the allo-HCT and auto-HCT groups, respectively. In the allo-HCT group, the 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 35% (95% CI: 21 to 57), while 3-year cumulative incidence of NRM was 16% (95% CI: 7 to 35). In the auto-HCT group, the 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse and NRM were 43% (95% CI: 23 to 78) and 14% (95% CI: 4 to 52), respectively. Both Auto-HCT and Allo-HCT are effective consolidative strategies in patients with HSTCL, and patients should be promptly referred for HCT evaluation.

RESUMO

Axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) in trials has demonstrated favorable efficacy compared with historical controls after ≥2 lines of therapy for the treatment of relapsed or refractory (R/R) large B cell lymphoma (LBCL). Herein, we compared the real-world effectiveness of axi-cel with efficacy and effectiveness of chemoimmunotherapy (CIT) in patients aged ≥65 years and patients with Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 2. A total of 1146 patients treated with commercial axi-cel for R/R LBCL with ≥2 lines of prior therapy were included from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplantation Research prospective observational study, and 469 patients treated with CIT for R/R LBCL after ≥2 lines of prior therapy were included from SCHOLAR-1 (an international, multicohort, retrospective study). After propensity score matching, at a median follow-up of 24 months for patients receiving axi-cel and 60 months for patients receiving CIT, 12-month overall survival rates were 62% and 28%, respectively (hazard ratio, 0.30 [95% CI, 0.24-0.37]). Objective response rate (ORR) was 76% (complete response [CR] rate 58%) in patients receiving axi-cel versus 28% (CR rate 16%) for those receiving CIT. A 57% difference in ORR (55% difference in CR rate) favoring axi-cel over CIT was observed among patients aged ≥65 years. Increased magnitude of benefit in response rates for axi-cel versus CIT was also observed among patients with ECOG PS = 2. These findings further support the broader use of axi-cel in older patients and patients with ECOG PS = 2 with R/R LBCL.

RESUMO

Slow platelet recovery frequently occurs after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) with bone marrow graft and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PCy)-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. Improved platelet recovery may reduce the need for transfusions and improve outcomes. We investigated the safety and efficacy of eltrombopag, a thrombopoietin receptor agonist, at enhancing platelet recovery post-haplo-HSCT. The prospective study included patients ≥18 years of age who received haplo-HSCT with bone marrow graft and PCy. Patients received eltrombopag 300 mg/day starting on Day +5. The primary objective was to estimate platelet engraftment (>50 000/µL by Day 60). In a post hoc analysis, they were compared to a contemporary matched control group who did not receive eltrombopag. One hundred ten patients were included in the analysis (30 eltrombopag and 80 control). Seventy-three percent and 50% of patients in the eltrombopag group and control group, respectively, attained >50 000/µL platelet count by Day 60 (p = .043). No eltrombopag-related grade ≥4 adverse events were observed. Median time to platelet recovery (>20 000/µL) was 29 days with eltrombopag and 31 days for controls (p = .022), while its cumulative incidence was 90% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 78%-100%) with eltrombopag versus 67.5% (95% CI: 57%-78%) for controls (p = .014). Number of platelet transfusions received, overall survival, progression-free survival, GVHD rate, relapse rate, and non-relapse mortality were similar between groups. Overall, eltrombopag is safe and improves platelet recovery in patients undergoing haplo-HSCT with bone marrow graft and PCy.
