RESUMEN

Cord blood (CB) stem cell transplantation offers a greater tolerance to HLA mismatches compared to adult-derived stem cell transplants (i.e., bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells). Indeed, 4/6 or 5/8 HLA-matched CB transplantations are regularly performed for patients lacking a matched unrelated donor. Unfortunately, most banked CB units contain a stem cell dose that is too small to treat adult patients, resulting in only 4% to 5% of available CB units offering an adequate cell dose for prompt engraftment for adult patients. Ex vivo stem cell expansion appears to be an attractive strategy to circumvent this cell dose issue, while also enabling the selection of better HLA-matched CB units. In this study, we retrospectively performed HLA matching simulations to assess how the minimal cell content requirements associated with UM171 CB expansion may improve usability of existing CB unit inventories and donor availability for patients of different races and ethnicities. We analyzed a dataset of 58,971 adults for whom a donor search was initiated through the National Marrow Donor Program Be The Match registry against 142,942 CB units from major U.S. public CB banks listed on the Be The Match registry. Our results show that by enabling selection of smaller CB units, UM171-expanded CB transplantation increases donor availability from 72% to 84% for all patients compared to single unmanipulated CB transplantation. Furthermore, the low cell dose criteria for UM171-expanded CB also increases donor availability compared to double CB transplantation, while enabling better HLA matching between donor and recipient. UM171 expanded CB appears particularly beneficial for racial and ethnic minority patients as CB availability increases from 53% to 78% for African Americans, from 66% to 85% for Hispanics, and from 68% to 84% for Asians and Pacific Islanders, compared to single unmanipulated CB transplantation. In addition, UM171 expansion dramatically improves usability of CB units currently in inventories, as only 4.3% and 0.6% of banked CBs have sufficient cell doses for a 70 kg and 100 kg patient, respectively. UM171 raises this proportion to 53.8% and 20.2%, respectively, making CB banks potentially more cost effective. In conclusion, UM171 expansion allows the use of smaller CB units while also improving access to transplantation for racial and ethnic minorities.

RESUMEN

We conducted a prospective evaluation of cord blood (CB)-derived adoptive cell therapy, after salvage chemotherapy, for patients with advanced myeloid malignancies and poor prognosis. Previously, we reported safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of this approach. We present updated results in 31 patients who received intensive chemotherapy followed by CB infusion and identify predictors of response. To enhance the antileukemic effect, we selected CB units (CBU) with shared inherited paternal antigens and/or noninherited maternal antigens with the recipients. Twenty-eight patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), 2 with myelodysplastic syndrome, and 1 in chronic myeloid leukemia myeloid blast crisis were enrolled; 9 had relapsed after allogeneic transplant. Response was defined as <5% blasts in hypocellular bone marrow at 2 weeks after treatment. Thirteen patients (42%) responded; a rate higher than historical data with chemotherapy only. Twelve had CBU-derived chimerism detected; chimerism was a powerful predictor of response (P < .001). CBU lymphocyte content and a prior transplant were associated with chimerism (P < .01). Safety was acceptable: 3 patients developed mild cytokine release syndrome, 2 had grade 1 and 2 had grade 4 graft-versus-host disease. Seven responders and 6 nonresponders (after additional therapy) received subsequent transplant; 5 are alive (follow-up, 5-47 months). The most common cause of death for nonresponders was disease progression, whereas for responders it was infection. CB-derived adoptive cell therapy is feasible and efficacious for refractory AML. Banked CBU are readily available for treatment. Response depends on chimerism, highlighting the graft-versus-leukemia effect of CB cell therapy. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT02508324.
