ABSTRACT
In pediatric and adolescent patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, treatment-related toxicities remain a clinical challenge. A paucity of data investigates the risks for and survival impact of treatment-related toxicities in this population. Here the authors assess the relative toxicity of myeloablative, reduced-toxicity, and reduced-intensity conditioning regimens; identify patient-related predictors of post-transplant toxicities; and investigate the impact of early post-transplant toxicities on transplant-related mortality (TRM). In this retrospective study, 164 patients (aged 1 to 22 years) underwent allogeneic stem cell transplantation after busulfan-based conditioning for malignant and nonmalignant diseases between 2000 and 2014. The number of grades III to IV toxicities between days 0 and +30 was calculated for each patient. TRM was calculated to 2 years. Median patient age was 9 years, and median number of toxicities was 3 (range, 0 to 17). The 100-person day incidence of post-transplant toxicities in myeloablative conditioning was not different from the incidence in reduced-toxicity conditioning (13.88 versus 13.59, P = .812). Reduced intensity was less toxic than both myeloablative and reduced toxicity (13.75 versus 8.41, P < .001). Age ≥ 12 years (.276 with SE = .138, P = .045) and unrelated donor transplant (.318 with SE = 0.113, P = .005) were risk factors for ≥3 toxicities. Having ≥3 toxicities or a performance score < 90 conferred higher risk of TRM (P = .021). In pediatric and adolescent patients undergoing hematopoietic cell transplantation, reduced-toxicity conditioning was not significantly less toxic than myeloablative conditioning. Additionally, the number of post-transplant toxicities correlated with the risk of mortality. Further investigations to confirm our findings are warranted.
