RESUMEN
The efficacy of salvage treatment of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients who relapse or progress (rrDLBCL) after initial therapy is limited. Efficacy and safety of ofatumumab with iphosphamide, etoposide and cytarabine (O-IVAC) was evaluated in a single-arm study. Dosing was modified for elderly patients. Patients received up to six cycles of treatment. The primary end-point was the overall response rate (ORR). Patients were evaluated every two cycles and then six and 12 months after treatment. Other end-points included progression-free survival (PFS), event-free survival (EFS), overall survival (OS) and safety. Seventy-seven patients received salvage treatment with O-IVAC. The average age was 56.8 years; 39% had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of at least 3; 78% had disease of Ann Arbor stage 3 or 4; 58% received one or more prior salvage therapies. The ORR for O-IVAC was 54.5%. The median duration of study follow-up was 70 months. The median PFS and EFS were 16.3 months each. The median OS was 22.7 months. Age, ECOG performance status and the number of prior therapy lines were independent predictors of survival. Treatment-related mortality was 15.5%. O-IVAC showed a high response rate in a difficult-to-treat population and is an attractive treatment to bridge to potentially curative therapies.

The optimal salvage therapy in relapsed/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma (R/R HL) has not been defined so far. The goal of this multicenter retrospective study was to evaluate efficacy and safety of BGD (bendamustine, gemcitabine, dexamethasone) as a second or subsequent line of therapy in classical R/R HL. We have evaluated 92 consecutive R/R HL patients treated with BGD. Median age was 34.5 (19-82) years. Fifty-eight patients (63%) had received 2 or more lines of chemotherapy, 32 patients (34.8%) radiotherapy, and 21 patients (22.8%) an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (autoHCT). Forty-four patients (47.8%) were resistant to first line of chemotherapy. BGD therapy consisted of bendamustine 90 mg/m2 on days 1 and 2, gemcitabine 800 mg/m2 on days 1 and 4, dexamethasone 40 mg on days 1-4. Median number of BGD cycles was 4 (2-7). The following adverse events ≥ 3 grade were noted: neutropenia (22.8%), thrombocytopenia (20.7%), anemia (15.2%), infections (10.9%), AST/ALT increase (2.2%), and skin rush (1.1%). After BGD therapy, 51 (55.4%) patients achieved complete remission, 23 (25%)-partial response, 7 (7.6%)-stable disease, and 11 (12%) patients experienced progression disease. AutoHCT was conducted in 42 (45.7%) patients after BGD therapy, and allogeneic HCT (alloHCT) in 16 (17.4%) patients. Median progression-free survival was 21 months. BGD is a highly effective, well-tolerated salvage regimen for patients with R/R HL, providing an excellent bridge to auto- or alloHCT.

Mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells for patients with multiple myeloma (MM) may be done using either steady-state granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) or a combination of chemotherapy with G-CSF. The goal of this randomized, open-label, phase 3 trial was to compare the efficacy of chemomobilization using intermediate-dose cytarabine (ID-AraC) plus G-CSF with G-CSF alone in patients with MM referred for tandem autologous stem cell transplantation (autoSCT). The percentage of patients with stem cell yield of at least 5â¯×â¯106 CD34+ cells/kg was the primary endpoint. Ninety patients were enrolled, including 44 assigned to the ID-AraC arm and 46 in the G-CSF arm. The threshold number of CD34+ cells was reached in 43 patients (98%) in the ID-AraC arm and in 32 patients (70%) in the G-CSF arm (Pâ¯=â¯.0003). The median number of collected CD34+ cells was 20.2â¯×â¯106 cells/kg in the ID-AraC arm versus 5.9â¯×â¯106 cells/kg in the G-CSF arm (P < .000001). A single apheresis was sufficient to achieve the required number of harvested CD34+ cells in 37 patients (86%) in the ID-AraC arm and in 13 patients (41%) in the G-CSF arm (Pâ¯=â¯.00008). The times to both neutrophil and platelet recovery after autoSCT were significantly shorter in the patients mobilized with ID-AraC. This study provides the first evidence of the advantage of chemomobilization over G-CSF monotherapy in terms of efficacy. ID-AraC with G-CSF should be the preferred chemomobilization protocol for patients with MM scheduled to undergo tandem autoSCT.

INTRODUCTION: BEAM (carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, melphalan) is the most frequently used high-dose chemotherapy regimen for patients with lymphoma referred for autologous haematopoietic cell transplantation (autoHCT). Recently, a novel conditioning protocol containing bendamustine instead of carmustine (BeEAM) has been proposed to potentially increase the efficacy. AIM OF THE STUDY: The aim of this study was to retrospectively compare the safety profile of BEAM and BeEAM based on single-centre experience. MATERIAL AND METHODS: A total of 237 consecutive patients with lymphoma treated with either BEAM (n = 174) or BeEAM (n = 63), between the years 2011 and 2016, were included in the analysis. Clinical characteristics of both groups were comparable. Patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) constituted 49% of the BEAM group and 40% of the BeEAM group. RESULTS: Median time to neutrophil > 0.5 × 109/l recovery was 10 days in both groups (p = 0.29), while median time to platelet > 50 × 109/l recovery was 13 and 14 days after BEAM and BeEAM, respectively (p = 0.12). The toxicity profile was comparable except for arterial hypertension and severe hypokalaemia, which occurred more frequently after BeEAM compared to BEAM (p = 0.02 and p = 0.004, respectively). The rate of early mortality was 1.7% and 1.6%, respectively. The probabilities of the overall and progression-free survival were comparable for both groups (p = 0.73 and p = 0.55, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Administration of bendamustine instead of carmustine as part of conditioning does not affect the engraftment or the toxicity profile of the regimen. Therefore, BeEAM may be safely used in patients with lymphoma undergoing autoHCT. Its efficacy requires evaluation in prospective studies.
RESUMEN
It was previously postulated that pretransplant myeloablative treatment may impair thymopoiesis, contributing in this way to delayed reconstitution of T cells after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). On the other hand, de novo generation of T cells after HSCT requires a competent thymus. Various myeloablative conditioning regimens (total body irradiation [TBI] or high-dose chemotherapy) routinely used in clinical practice may have potentially different impacts on the thymus. However, no comparative study on thymic output and T cell repertoire in autologous (auto)HSCT model has been presented so far. Here we evaluated thymic output and TCR diversity in 45 lymphoma patients submitted to autoHSCT differing in respect to conditioning regimen: high-dose chemotherapy as monotherapy (BEAM, n = 22) or combination of total body irradiation with cyclophosphamide chemotherapy: Cy/TBI (n = 23). Thymic output was assessed before and on days +100, +180, and +365 after autoHSCT by flow cytometric counts of recent thymic emigrant (RTE) cells (CD31(+) CD62L(+) CD45RA(+) CD4(+)) and quantification of signal joint TCR receptor excision circles (sjTRECs) by quantitative PCR. T cell repertoire diversity was analyzed on day +365 after autoHSCT by spectra-typing of the CDR3 region in the TCRVß chain. The BEAM group, in contrast to the Cy/TBI group, manifested significantly higher proportions of RTE cells and sjTREC copy numbers on days +100 and +180. Analysis of TCRVß spectra-types on day +365 revealed more restricted (monoclonal or oligoclonal) T cell repertoires in the Cy/TBI versus BEAM group (48.8% versus 18.2%, P = .0002). In conclusion, the conditioning scheme based on BEAM chemotherapy may be performed with lower risk of thymic destruction and T cell repertoire distortion than Cy/TBI scheme. This finding may help to potentially improve conditioning schemes to efficiently perform myeloablation and maintain active thymopoiesis.

Salvage regimens, like DHAP (dexamethasone, cytarabine, and cisplatin) are frequently used for stem cell mobilization in lymphoma. The aim of this study was to compare the efficacy of DHAP + G-CSF with intermediate-dose cytarabine (ID-AraC) + G-CSF, recently proposed as an alternative schedule. Consecutive patients with Hodgkin's or non-Hodgkin lymphoma who had received at least 2 lines of chemotherapy, mobilized with either DHAP (n = 51) or ID-AraC (n = 50) + G-CSF were included in the analysis. AraC was administered at the dose of 400 mg/m [1] bid intravenously for 2 days followed by filgrastim starting from day 5. In the AraC group, 96 % of patients collected at least 2 × 10 [2] CD34(+) cells/kg compared to 71 % in the DHAP group (p = 0.0006). The CD34(+) cell yield was 9.3 (0-30.3) × 10 [2]/kg vs. 5.6 (0-24.8) × 10 [2]/kg, respectively (p = 0.006). A single apheresis was sufficient to achieve the threshold number of CD34(+) cells in 82 % of the cases after AraC compared to 45 % after DHAP (p = 0.001). We conclude that stem cell mobilization using ID-AraC is associated with a significantly higher efficacy than DHAP, allowing for collection of the transplant material in almost all patients with lymphoma. Our observation suggests that ID-AraC + G-CSF may be a preferable mobilization regimen in this setting.

The goal of this phase II trial was to evaluate safety and efficacy of a tandem autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (auto-HCT) using sequentially total marrow irradiation (TMI) at the dose of 12 Gy (4 Gy on days -3, -2, and -1) and melphalan 200 mg/m2 for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). TMI was performed using helical tomotherapy. Additional "boosts" (total 24 Gy) were applied for patients with active lesions as revealed by PET-FDG. Fifty patients with median age 58 years (41-64 years) were included and received tandem auto-HCT. TMI resulted in absolute neutropenia in all patients. Grade 3 infections were reported in 30% patients. Other toxicities were rare. Proportion of patients who achieved at least very good partial response increased from 46% before the first auto-HCT to 82% after tandem transplantation. Complete remission rates changed from 10% to 42%, respectively. The probabilities of overall and progression-free survival at 5 years were 74% and 55%, respectively. No patient died without progression. We conclude that conditioning with TMI ± PET-guided "boosts" represents personalized treatment approach in MM and is characterized by very good toxicity profile. Tandem auto-HCT using TMI in sequence with high-dose melphalan appears safe with encouraging early efficacy.

The procedure of autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (autoPBSCT) requires cryopreservation of cells in a mixture containing dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). DMSO is necessary to secure cell viability, however, its infusion may be toxic to stem cell recipient. The aim of this study was to prospectively evaluate the impact of DMSO concentration on engraftment after autoPBSCT.One-hundred-fifty patients were randomly assigned to one of three study arms; their leukapheresis products were cryopreserved in 10%, 7.5% or 5% DMSO. The study groups did not differ with regard to the diagnosis (mainly lymphomas and multiple myeloma), age, conditioning regimen, and the number of transplanted hematopoietic stem cells. 143 patients were treated with autoPBSCT. The frequency of adverse effects during and shortly after infusion was the lowest in 5% DMSO arm (p = 0.02 compared to 10% DMSO). 4 patients died due to infection before the engraftment. The median time to leukocyte and neutrophil recovery was 10 days in all study groups (p = 0.36 and p = 0.2). As well, the median day of platelet recovery was the same for all DMSO concentrations and equaled 15 days (p = 0.61).In view of these results, 5% DMSO mixture may be considered a new standard in cryopreservation of hematopoietic stem cells.

Regeneration of the bone marrow microenvironment after transplantation of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells is poorly explored. The goal of our study was to investigate this process focusing on immunologic factors: concentrations of selected cytokines, expression of immunosuppressive proteins CD47 and CD274 on hematopoietic stem cells, and frequency of T regulatory lymphocytes (Tregs). Bone marrow samples were collected before transplantation, on the day of transplantation, and at the 1-year follow-up. As a control group, we used bone marrow from healthy donors. Prior to the conditioning, the percentage of Tregs and concentration of interleukin-10 were higher in the bone marrow of patients than in healthy donors. The conditioning regimen resulted in increased concentrations of interferon-γ and expression of CD274 on hematopoietic stem cells. Twenty-eight days after transplantation, level of Tregs, expression of CD47, and concentration of interleukin-10 and latency-associated peptide 1 were increased compared with the period before conditioning. Starting from day 100 after transplantation, the microenvironment tended to normalize; the level of Tregs and concentrations of most cytokines were similar to values in the bone marrow of healthy donors.

We describe two patients with acute myeloid leukemia successfully treated with anti-CD20 antibody for pure red cell aplasia (PRCA) following ABO-mismatched allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). PRCA following HSCT is associated with major ABO incompatibility between donor and recipient and is due to an inhibition of donor erythroid precursors by residual host isoagglutinins. The first patient developed PRCA resistant to several treatment options including donor-derived leukocyte infusions (DLI), high-dose erythropoietin (EPO), and rapid tapering of cyclosporin A (CsA). This patient also received anti-viral therapy as CMV and parvovirus B19 infections were regarded as additional causes of PRCA. Due to a loss of donor chimerism, he underwent second HSCT, but PRCA still persisted. He showed no evidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Finally he was administered anti-CD20 antibody (rituximab) at a dose of 150/m2 and PRCA resolved in a short period of time. The case was complicated by life-threatening pulmonary aspergillosis with septic shock, successfully treated with anti-fungal therapy. The second case concerns a patient, who revealed PRCA after major ABO-incompatible HSCT from his brother. Considering our experience with the previously described patient, he proceeded to rituximab at a dose of 150/m2 as first line treatment. We observed rapid recovery from PRCA without any side effects. We conclude that rituximab seems to be a promising therapeutic option in patients with PRCA after ABO-mismatched HSCT, in whom conventional treatment fails.

Anagrelid is, in our country, comparatively a new compound selectively affecting the megakaryocyte line in bone marrow leading to its reversal inhibition, simultaneously showing some exceptional, interesting pharmacological features. Essential trombocythemia, being a sole indication for the drug administration, is one of the chronic myeloproliferative disorders which exposes individuals to significantly increased risk for thrombohaemorrhagic complications. Regarding the latest literature data, the most present therapeutic modalities in this disease were presented focusing the interest on anagrelid being, in majority of cases, the drug of choice in uncontrolled megakaryocyte proliferation. The drug therapeutic value and characteristics were presented on the background of another compounds regarded as standard therapeutic options for essential thrombocythemia.

Wilson's disease defined also as hepatolenticular degeneration is an important clinical problem of young adults still causing diagnostic difficulties. In the course of the last decade, genetic background of the disease has been definitely established and elucidated, confirming the variety of genetic mutations, responsible for its origin. The current scheme of the disease treatment has been elaborated and established. It aims to eliminate the excess of toxic copper ions from the organism as fast as possible. In the initial phase of the treatment, traditional and recently introduced chelating agents administration usually results in prompt tissue copper deposits excretion and copper metabolism balance maintenance. In the chronic therapy, zinc compounds, inducing intestinal and hepatic metallothionein synthesis, have been gaining more common application. Life-long, constant, pharmacological Wilson's disease therapy, administered after its early diagnosis, allows for long periods of patients survival, frequently comparable to the normal population.

BACKGROUND: We aimed to prospectively assess the influence of the recommended dose, 1.0 g of polyunsaturated fatty acids (N-3 PUFA) daily, on platelet reactivity in patients with stable angina pectoris (SAP) after elective percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: Forty consecutive patients with SAP and successful PCI were randomized to the study group (group PUFA: n = 20; age 65 ± 8; standard therapy + 75 mg acetylsalicylic acid + 75 mgclopidogrel + N-3 PUFA/Omacor 1 g daily) and the control group (group C: n = 20; age 65 ± 9; standard therapy + 75 mg acetylsalicylic acid + 75 mg clopidogrel). Platelet reactivity tests (COL, TRAP, ASPI, ADP) were performed using whole blood aggregometry (multiplate platelet [PLT] function analysis) on the 2,nd and 30th day after PCI. RESULTS: Baseline patients' characteristics and clinical outcomes were comparable between the groups. There were no differences between both groups in the mean values of the PTL tests measured 30 days after PCI (PUFA vs. C ASPI: 18.5 ± 17 vs. 27 ± 29 U, COL: 30.4 ± 14.3 vs. 30.3 ± 13.4 U, ADP: 25.4 ± 16.1 vs. 20 ± 10.7 U, TRAP: 65.8 ± 25.6 vs. 57.1 ± 20.4 U, p = NS). The mean delta values of the PTL tests (18-24 h post-PCI/30 days post-PCI) were also comparable between the groups. The PTL aggregometry results were related to time - the baseline values of the ADP (p = 0.003), COL (p = 0.037) and TRAP (p < 0.001) tests were smaller and the ASPI (p = 0.027) test was higher than those measured after 1-month. CONCLUSIONS: N-3 PUFA supplementation does not affect the efficacy of dual antiplatelettherapy in patients with SAP after PCI.

BACKGROUND: Our aim was to prospectively assess the potential influence of pantoprazole therapy on the antiplatelet effects of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and clopidogrel (CLO) in stable angina pectoris (SAP) patients after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). METHODS: Forty-four patients with SAP (CCS I-III) and successful PCI with stent implantation were enrolled into the study. The patients were divided into group proton pump inhibitors (PPI): 23 patients with indications for PPI (F/M = 9/14; age = 64 ± 9; standard therapy + 20 mg pantoprazole) and the control group (group C): 21 patients (F/M = 6/15; age = 64 ± 8; standard therapy). The platelet function analysis in whole blood based on impedance aggregometry (ASPI, COL, ADP, TRAP tests) using Multiplate--V2.02.11 was performed 18-24 h after the PCI + CLO loading dose (600 mg) and 30 days after PCI. RESULTS: Both baseline patient characteristics and clinical outcomes were comparable between the study groups. There were no differences in the mean values of the platelets (PTL) tests measured at the 30(th) day after PCI between both groups (PPI vs. C: ASPI: 24.6 ± 10.0 vs. 42.1 ± 14.8 U, COL: 32.9 ± 8.6 vs. 34.0 ± 7.7 U, ADP: 26.8 ± 12.4 vs. 30.4 ± 8.1 U, TRAP: 78.7 ± 16.6 vs. 78.1 ± 22.6 U, p = ns). The mean delta values of the PTL tests (18-24 h post-PCI/30 days post-PCI) were also comparable between the groups. The PTL aggregometry results were related to time (ADP, ASPI, TRAP vs. time, p = 0.001; COL vs. time, p = 0.03)--the baseline values of ADP, ASPI, COL and TRAP tests were smaller than those measured after the one-month observation. CONCLUSION: Pantoprazole treatment does not impair the efficacy of dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with SAP after PCI.
