ABSTRACT
Threshold levels of CMV-specific T-cell populations presumably affording protection from active CMV infection in allo-SCT recipients have been proposed, but lack extensive validation. We quantified CMV pp65 and immediate-early 1-specific IFN-γ CD8(+) and CD4(+) T cell responses at days +30, +60 and +90 after transplantation in 133 patients, and established cutoff cell levels protecting from CMV DNAemia within the first 120 days after transplantation. No patients showing IFN-γ CD8(+) or IFN-γ CD4(+) T-cell counts >1.0 and >1.2 cells/µL, respectively, developed a subsequent episode of CMV DNAemia. Initial or recurrent episodes of CMV DNAemia occurred in the face of IFN-γ T-cell levels below defined thresholds. Negative predictive values at day +30 for the IFN-γ CD8(+) and CD4(+) T-cell markers were 68.1 and 61.8%, respectively. Recipients of grafts from CMV seropositive, related or HLA-matched donors, or receiving non-myeloablative conditioning had nonsignificant tendencies to reach more frequently protective levels of both T-cell subsets at early and late (day +365) times after transplantation. The use of anti-thymocyte globulin and umbilical cord blood transplantation were associated with impaired CMV-specific T-cell reconstitution. CMV-specific IFN-γ CD8(+) and CD4(+) T-cell recovery occurred irrespective of detectable CMV DNAemia.
