RESUMO
Relapse and graft failure after autologous (auto) or allogeneic (allo) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are serious and frequently fatal events. A second HSCT can be a life-saving alternative, however, information on the results of such intervention in an outpatient setting is limited. Outpatient second hematoprogenitors transplant after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) at a single academic center was analyzed. Twenty-seven consecutive adults who received an allo-HSCT after an initial auto- or allo-HSCT from 2006 to 2019 were included. Data were compared using the χ2 -test. Survival analysis using Kaplan-Meier and Cox proportional hazard models was performed; cumulative incidence estimation of transplant-related mortality (TRM) was assessed. Hodgkin lymphoma was the most frequent diagnosis for the group with a first auto-HSCT with 5/12 (41.7%) cases, and acute myeloid leukemia for those with a first allo-HSCT with 6/15 (40%). One-year overall survival and disease-free survival (DFS) was 66.7% (95% CI 27.2-88.2) and 59% (95% CI 16-86) for 12 patients with a first auto-HSCT; and for 15 patients with a first allo-HSCT, it was 43.3% (95% CI 17.9-66.5) and 36% (95% CI 13.2-59.9), respectively. Eight (29.6%) patients died of TRM and the cumulative incidence of TRM at 1 year was 22% (95% CI 8.6-39.27). Chronic graft-versus-host disease and late (>10 months) second transplantation were protective factors for longer survival. Neutropenic fever was more common in the group with a first allo-HSCT (p = 0.01). In conclusion, outpatient second allo-HSCT using RIC after auto- or allografting failure or relapse is feasible and offers a reasonable alternative for patients with severe life-threatening hematological diseases.

Outcome data were collected from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry on 373 children from 120 centers with relapsed leukemia (214 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia [ALL] and 159 with acute myelogenous leukemia [AML]) who underwent second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) between 2004 and 2013. Overall survival (OS) was 38% at 2 years and 29% at 5 years, and leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 30% at 2 years and 25% at 5 years. Median follow-up after second HSCT was 36.4 months in the ALL group and 50.2 months in the AML group. In the ALL group, OS was 43% at 2 years and 33% at 5 years, and LFS was 34% at 2 years and 31% at 5 years. In the AML group, OS was 32% at 2 years and 24% at 5 years, and LFS was 24% at 2 years and 17% at 5 years. The 2-year nonrelapse mortality (NRM) rate was 22% in the ALL group and 18% in the AML group. Favorable prognostic factors (P < .05) for OS and LFS included >12 months between transplantations and chronic graft-versus-host disease after the first HSCT (in both groups), complete response before the second HSCT (ALL group only), and age >12 years (AML group only). Findings were more consistent over time in the ALL group, with no significant differences between 2-year and 5-year rates of relapse, NRM, and LFS. Children with relapsed acute leukemias have a substantial likelihood of long-term survival following second HSCT. Given the many novel targeted and immunomodulation therapies currently under development, it is important to identify specific patient subpopulations that may benefit from a second HSCT compared with those better suited to new approaches.

BACKGROUND: The association of the donor characteristics with the immune cell composition in second allografts remains poorly understood. In this study, we investigated retrospectively the effects of the donor characteristics on the immune cell composition in second allografts. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: The immune cell composition in second allografts of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilized peripheral blood harvests from 100 healthy donors (male, 47, female, 53; median age, 39 years old) who underwent a second-time donation were correlated with their donor characteristics. RESULTS: The median counts of CD3(+) T cells, CD4(+) T cells, CD8(+) T cells, CD3(+) CD4(-) CD8(-) T cells and monocytes in allografts were 150·17 × 10(6) /kg, 82·57 × 10(6) /kg, 48·02 × 10(6) /kg and 24·97 × 10(6) /kg, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed that the number of lymphocytes and platelets pre-first collection of G-CSF mobilized blood (FM) was strongly associated with the number of total lymphocytes (for lymphocytes, P = 0·003; for platelets, P = 0·012), CD3(+) T cells (for lymphocytes, P = 0·009; for platelets, P = 0·004) and CD3(+) CD4(+) T cells (for lymphocytes, P = 0·035; for platelets, P = 0·004) in the second allograft. The donor's BMI was negatively related to the number of CD3(+) T cells (P = 0·022) and CD3(+) CD4(+) T cells (P = 0·026) in the second allograft. The donor weight was negatively associated with the number of CD3(+) CD4(-) CD8(-) T cells (P = 0·015) in the second allograft, while the pre-FM white blood cell count showed a positive correlation (P = 0·009). CONCLUSION: The results demonstrate the impact of the donor characteristics, including pre-FM platelet count and lymphocyte count, donor BMI and weight, on the immune cell composition in the second allograft.
