ABSTRACT
Kidney disease in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients is associated with increased mortality rates. BK virus (BKV) viremia has been associated with kidney dysfunction in pediatric HCT recipients; however, few studies have investigated longer-term kidney outcomes in association with BKV in this population. Here we assessed the relationship between BK viremia and changes in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in children in the first year post-HCT. We selected 136 patients age ≤26 years who underwent HCT in 2007 to 2018 at a single center and had plasma BK viral load data available at 2 time points, weeks 4 to 7 post-HCT and weeks 10 to 13 post-HCT from prospectively collected stored plasma samples. A total of 272 samples were analyzed for BKV using quantitative PCR. We used multivariate linear models to determine the association of BK viremia and change in eGFR by 1 year post-HCT. Forty percent of the patients (54 of 136) had BKV detection in weeks 4 to 7, 13% of whom (7 of 54) had a BK viral load of ≥10,000 copies/mL, and 46% (62 of 136) had BKV detected in weeks 10 to 13, 34% (21 of 62) of whom had a BK viral load of ≥10,000 copies/mL. The mean decline in eGFR was 25.73 mL/min/1.73 m2 by 1 year post-HCT. In multivariate models, a BK viral load of ≥10,000 copies/mL during weeks 4 to 7 was associated with a mean decline in eGFR of 30.6 mL/min/1.73 m2 (95% confidence interval, -55.94 to -5.17; P = .019) compared with a BK viral load <10,000 copies/mL. In adjusted analyses, a high BK viral load in the blood (≥10,000 copies/mL) was associated with a significant decline in eGFR by 1 year post-HCT.
