RESUMEN
Killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) and KIR-ligand (KIRL) interactions play an important role in natural killer cell-mediated effects after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). Previous work has shown that accounting for known KIR-KIRL interactions may identify donors with optimal NK cell-mediated alloreactivity in the adult transplant setting. Paediatric acute leukaemia patients were retrospectively analysed, and KIR-KIRL combinations and maximal inhibitory KIR ligand (IM-KIR) scores were determined. Clinical outcomes were examined using a series of graphs depicting clinical events and endpoints. The graph methodology demonstrated that prognostic variables significant in the occurrence of specific clinical endpoints remained significant for relevant downstream events. KIR-KIRL combinations were significantly predictive for reduced grade 3-4 aGVHD likelihood, in patients transplanted with increased inhibitory KIR gene content and IM-KIR = 5 scores. Improvements were also observed in associated outcomes for both ALL and AML patients, including relapse-free survival, GRFS and overall survival. This study demonstrates that NK cell KIR HLA interactions may be relevant to the paediatric acute leukaemia transplant setting. Reduction in aGVHD suggests KIR effects may extend beyond NK cells. Moving forward clinical trials utilizing donors with a higher iKIR should be considered for URD HCT in paediatric recipients with acute leukaemia to optimize clinical outcomes.

BACKGROUND: Mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) have been widely used instead of bone marrow (BM) as the graft source for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Although early studies demonstrated no significant differences in survival between PBSC transplantation (PBSCT) and BM transplantation (BMT) from human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling donors to adults with hematological malignancies, recent results have been unclear. OBJECTIVE: The objective of this retrospective study was to compare overall survival (OS), relapse, non-relapse mortality (NRM), hematopoietic recovery and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) between PBSCT and BMT according to the time period of HCT (2003-2008, 2009-2014, or 2015-2020). STUDY DESIGN: We retrospectively compared the outcomes after PBSCT versus BMT in 6064 adults with hematological malignancies using a Japanese registry database between 2003 and 2020. RESULTS: The adjusted probability of OS was significantly higher in BMT recipients compared to PBSCT recipients during the early period of 2003-2008 (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.79; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.70-0.91; P < 0.001) and the middle period of 2009-2014 (adjusted HR, 0.80; 95% CI, 0.70-0.91; P < 0.001). However, during the late period of 2015-2020, the adjusted probability of OS was comparable between BMT and PBSCT recipients (adjusted HR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.79-1.13; P = 0.564), which were mainly due to the reduction of NRM. There was no significant difference in the relapse rate between the groups, irrespective of the time period. Compared to BMT, PBSCT led to faster neutrophil and platelet recovery and the cumulative incidences of grades II-IV and grades III-IV acute and overall and extensive chronic GVHD were significantly higher in PBSCT recipients, irrespective of the time period. CONCLUSIONS: PBSCT and BMT had similar survival outcomes and relapse rates in adult patients with hematological malignancies during the late time period of 2015-2020 despite the hematopoietic recovery and acute and chronic GVHD being higher in PBSCT recipients in all time periods.

BACKGROUND: CD34+ stem cells serve as the primary graft source for allogeneic transplants, with a minimum of 2-4 × 106 cells/kg needed for engraftment. There are conflicting data on outcomes at high stem cell doses, with studies limited by few patients receiving doses far above the minimum target. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: In this retrospective, single-center study of patients with hematologic malignancies who underwent matched unrelated donor transplants, we assessed outcomes for engraftment, survival, relapse, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) for the highest CD34+ dose quintile (>13 × 106 cells/kg, n = 36) compared to the remaining patients (n = 139). Similar analysis was performed correlating T cell dose and outcomes. RESULTS: There was no difference between the groups in neutrophil engraftment, with a trend toward faster platelet engraftment. There was no significant difference in mortality (adjusted risk ratio [aRR] = 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.85-1.22), relapse (aRR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.85-1.42), or overall survival by Kaplan-Meier analysis (p = .44). High CD34+ dose was not associated with higher incidence of acute GVHD (aRR = 0.99 grades II-IV, aRR = 1.18 grades III-IV) or chronic GVHD (aRR = 0.87 overall, RR = 1.21 severe). There was limited correlation between CD34+ and T cell dose (R2 = .073), and there was no significant difference in survival, relapse, or GVHD in the highest T cell dose quintile (n = 33) compared to the remaining quintiles (n = 132). DISCUSSION: We found no difference in survival, relapse, or GVHD incidence or severity in patients receiving CD34+ doses above prior cutoffs reported in the literature. These data do not support the routine use of graft CD34+ dose reduction.

This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of chidamide (Chi) combined with a modified Busulfan-Cyclophosphamide (mBuCy) conditioning regimen for T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Twenty-two patients received chidamide combined with mBuCy conditioning regimen (Chi group). A matched-pair control (CON) group of 44 patients (matched 1:2) received mBuCy only in the same period. The leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), and non-relapse-related mortality (NRM) were evaluated. Patients in the Chi group were associated with lower 2-year CIR (19.0 vs. 41.4%, P = 0.030), better 2-year LFS (76.1 vs. 48.1%, P = 0.014), and had no significant difference in 2-year OS (80.5 vs. 66.4%, P = 0.088). Patients with minimal residual disease (MRD) positive before HSCT in the Chi group exhibited an advantage in 2-year LFS and a trend towards better 2-year OS (75.0 vs. 10.2%, P = 0.048; 75.0 vs. 11.4%, P = 0.060, respectively). Multivariable analysis showed that the chidamide intensified regimen was independently associated with better LFS (HR 0.23; 95%CI, 0.08-0.63; P = 0.004), and showed no significant impact with OS for all patients (HR 0.34, 95%CI, 0.11-1.07; P = 0.064). The cumulative incidence rates of grade II-IV aGVHD were similar (36.4 vs. 38.6%, P = 0.858). 20 patients in Chi group evinced an elevation in γ-glutamyltransferase, as compared to the mBuCy group (90.9 vs. 65.9%, P = 0.029). No transplantation-related mortality was documented within the first 100 days after transplantation. The results demonstrate that the chidamide intensified regimen may be an effective and acceptable safety option for T-ALL/LBL undergoing allo-HSCT, and further validation is needed.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: ABO blood group mismatch between the donor and the recipient can affect the success of the transplant as well as problems with the red blood cells during allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). However, the impact of the Rhesus (Rh) D mismatch on transplant outcomes in allogeneic HCT has been poorly elucidated. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We retrospectively evaluated the impact of the RhD mismatch on post-transplant outcomes in 64,923 patients who underwent allogeneic HCT between 2000 and 2021 using a Japanese registry database. RESULTS: Out of the whole group, 64,293, 322, 270 and 38 HCTs were done when the recipient or donor was RhD-mismatched with (+/+), (-/+), (+/-) or (-/-) combinations. The difference in RhD between recipient/donor (-/+), (+/-) and (-/-) did not affect haematopoietic recovery, acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), overall survival (OS), non-relapse mortality (NRM) or relapse when RhD (+/+) was used as the reference group in multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION: Our registry-based study demonstrated that RhD mismatch between recipient and donor did not significantly impact haematopoietic recovery, GVHD, OS, NRM or relapse after allogeneic HCT. These data suggest that RhD mismatches may not need to be avoided for recipient and donor combinations in allogeneic HCT.

INTRODUCTION: Central nervous system leukemia (CNSL) remains a serious complication in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and an ambiguous prognostic factor for those receiving allo-geneic hematopoiesis stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). It is unknown whether using more sensitive tools, such as multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC), to detect blasts in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) would have an impact on outcome. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical outcomes of 1472 AML patients with or without cytology or MFC positivity in the CSF before transplantation. Abnormal CSF (CSF+) was detected via conventional cytology and MFC in 44 patients at any time after diagnosis. A control group of 175 CSF-normal (CSF-) patients was generated via propensity score matching (PSM) analyses according to sex, age at transplant, and white blood cell count at diagnosis. RESULTS: Compared to those in the CSF-negative group, the conventional cytology positive and MFC+ groups had comparable 8-year nonrelapse mortality (NRM) (4%, 4%, and 6%, p = 0.82), higher cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) (14%, 31%, and 32%, p = 0.007), lower leukemia-free survival (LFS) (79%, 63%, and 64%, p = 0.024), and overall survival (OS) (83%, 63%, and 68%, p = 0.021), with no significant differences between the conventional cytology positive and MFC+ groups. Furthermore, multivariate analysis confirmed that CSF involvement was an independent factor affecting OS and LFS. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that pretransplant CSF abnormalities are adverse factors independently affecting OS and LFS after allotransplantation in AML patients.

Management of Richter transformation (RT) is particularly challenging, with survival estimates <1 year. We report on outcomes of 66 RT patients undergoing allogeneic-HCT (allo-HCT) between 2008 and 2018 registered with the EBMT. Median age at allo-HCT was 56.2 years (interquartile range (IQR), 51.3-63.1). Median time from RT to allo-HCT was 6.9 months (IQR, 4.9-11) and 28 (42.4%) were in complete remission (CR). The majority underwent reduced intensity conditioning (66.2%) using peripheral blood derived stem cells. Eighteen (27.3%) patients had a matched sibling donor, 24 (36.4%) a matched unrelated donor and the remaining were mismatched. Median follow-up was 6.6 years; 1- and 3- year overall and progression free survival (PFS) (95% CI) was 65% (54-77) and 39% (27-51) and 53% (41-65) and 29% (18-40), respectively. Patients in CR at time of allo-HCT had significantly better 3-year PFS (39% vs. 21%, p = 0.032). Cumulative incidences of grade II-IV acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) at day +100 was 41% (95% CI 29-53) and chronic GVHD at 3 years was 53% (95% CI 41-65). High rates of non-relapse mortality (NRM) were observed; 38% (95% CI, 26-50) at 3 years. Although potentially curative, approaches to reduce considerable NRM and chronic GVHD rates are required.

Chronic graft-versus-host-disease (cGVHD) is divided into two subtypes: classic (absence of acute GVHD features) and overlap cGVHD ('ocGVHD'), in which both chronic and acute GVHD clinical features are present simultaneously. While worse outcomes with ocGVHD have been reported, there are few recent analyses. We performed a secondary analysis of data from the ABA2 trial (N = 185), in which detailed GVHD data were collected prospectively and systematically adjudicated. Analyses included cumulative incidence of classic versus ocGVHD, their specific organ manifestations, global disease severity scores, non-relapse mortality (NRM), disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) in these two cGVHD subtypes. Of 92 patients who developed cGVHD, 35 were classified as ocGVHD. The 1-year cumulative incidence, organ involvement, and global severity of classic and ocGVHD were similar between ABA2 patients receiving CNI/MTX+placebo and CNI/MTX+abatacept; thus, cohorts were combined for ocGVHD evaluation. This analysis identified ocGVHD as having significantly higher severity at presentation and at maximum global severity compared to classic cGVHD. OS and DFS were significantly lower for ocGVHD versus classic cGVHD. OcGVHD is associated with increased cGVHD severity scores, and is associated with decreased OS and DFS compared to classic cGVHD, underscoring the high risks with this cGVHD subtype.

BACKGROUNDS: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is a substantial therapeutic procedure for the treatment of a wide spectrum of severe diseases. Despite advancements in treatment and supportive care, alloHSCT still carries a considerable mortality risk, primarily caused by graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Our retrospective analysis aimed to identify the factors influencing overall survival and GvHD development in HLA-identical sibling alloHSCT. We have analyzed patients' and donors' age, AB0 compatibility, recipient-donor gender match, stem cell source, time from the diagnosis to alloHSCT, conditioning regimen type, GvHD prophylaxis, and relapse. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Our study included 96 patients (54 male, 42 female) who underwent HLA-identical sibling alloHSCT. The median follow-up was 64.5 months (range 1-218 months), and the median age of both recipients and donors was 34 years. Malignant hematological diseases were the most common indications for alloHSCT. RESULTS: GvHD and its complications accounted for the highest number of deaths (N = 24; 46.2%), followed by relapse (N = 18; 34.6%). Acute GvHD developed in 30 patients (31.3%), while chronic GvHD occurred in 25 patients (26.0%), resulting in a total of 45 patients (46.9%) experiencing GvHD. Male recipients with female donors had significantly worse overall survival compared to other patients (P = 0.01; HR = 2.33). Overall survival was better in patients transplanted within 1 year from the diagnosis compared to those transplanted after 1 year (P = 0.03; HR = 1.93). No factor reached statistical significance regarding the impact on acute GvHD, chronic GvHD, or overall GvHD. CONCLUSION: We confirmed that sex mismatch, specifically in the case of a female donor and a male recipient, significantly negatively affects overall survival after alloHSCT. Additionally, overall survival is significantly shorter when the interval between the diagnosis and alloHSCT exceeds one year.

Response to treatment of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) may help predict prognosis and outcomes. We hypothesized that the response of cGVHD to treatment and the ability to taper immunosuppression define distinct treatment response categories that differ in terms of risk factors and prognosis. Our aim was to determine specific clinical characteristics and outcomes associated with 3 distinct cGVHD treatment response groups based on the response to and duration of immunosuppressive therapy (IST) as treatment-sensitive (TS), treatment-resistant (TR), and treatment-dependent (TD) cGVHD. This retrospective single-institution cohort study included 1142 consecutive adult and pediatric recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) performed for malignant and nonmalignant disorders at the University of Minnesota between 2008 and 2016. All donor, graft, conditioning regimen, and GVHD prophylaxis strategies were included, but only patients who commenced systemic treatment within 30 days of cGVHD diagnosis were included. A total of 185 patients who developed cGVHD necessitating IST within 30 days of cGVHD diagnosis were included in this analysis. At 1 year after cGVHD onset, 13% of the patients were TS, 27% were TD, and 60% were TR (including 14% deceased), whereas at 2 years after cGVHD onset, 29% were TS, 5% were TD, and 66% were TR (including 22% deceased). In a landmark analysis starting at 1 year after cGVHD onset, 5-year failure-free survival (FFS) and overall survival (OS) were lowest in the TR group (FFS, 38%; OS, 70%), with comparable outcomes in the TD (74% and 82%, respectively) and TS (79% for both) groups. Compared to no cGVHD, TR cGVHD was associated with worse OS at 5 years after cGVHD (hazard ratio, 2.09 versus no cGVHD; 95% confidence interval, 1.3 to 3.3; P < .01). Our findings suggest that refining cGVHD classification into 3 treatment response states defines important predictors of early and late clinical outcomes and identifies patients needing more effective treatment.

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) has emerged as a promising treatment option for patients with acute leukemia needing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Both single (sUCBT) and double cord blood units (dUCBT) demonstrate potential benefits, but studies comparing their effectiveness have shown mixed results. This meta-analysis aimed to determine the comparative safety and efficacy of sUCBT versus dUCBT in acute leukemia patients. METHODS: Electronic databases were systematically examined to identify relevant studies comparing single vs double UCBT published until November 2023. Nine studies involving 3864 acute leukemia patients undergoing UCBT were included. Outcomes analyzed were acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), chronic GVHD, relapse, non-relapse mortality, leukemia-free survival and overall survival. Pooled risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated using a random effects model. RESULTS: The risk of Grade II-IV acute GVHD (RR 1.55, 95% CI 1.19-2.03) and Grade III-IV acute GVHD (RR 1.25, 95% CI 1.07-1.46) were significantly higher with dUCBT. Relapse risk was lower with dUCBT (RR 0.57, 95% CI 0.38-0.88) while overall survival favored sUCBT (RR 1.25, 95% CI 1.06-1.46). No significant differences were observed for chronic GVHD, non-relapse mortality or leukemia-free survival. CONCLUSION: Both single and double UCBT have potential as effective treatments for acute leukemia. The choice of treatment should consider various factors, including the risk of GVHD, relapse, and mortality. More research, especially randomized trials, is needed to provide definitive guidance on the optimal use of single and double unit UCBT in patients with acute leukemia.

ATOS is a prospective observational study evaluating the outcome of patients receiving anti-human T-lymphocyte immunoglobulin (ATLG) in unrelated donor transplantation. Primary endpoint was severe GvHD and relapse-free survival (SGRFS). GvHD prophylaxis consisted of ATLG and CSA/ MTX or MMF. Outcome was compared to the ATLG arm of our prospective randomized phase III multicenter trial trial (RCT) [1, 2]. 165 patients, median age 54 (18; 77) years, with haematological malignancies with early (45.5%), intermediate (17.6%), and advanced (37.0%) disease were included. ATLG dose differed between centers according to local practise (median total ATLG dose of 46 (IQR 32-60, range 15-91) mg/kg). Median follow-up was 70 months. Estimated probabilities at 5 years follow up were for SGRFS 0.27, OS 0.52, DFS 0.43, NRM 0.23, relapse 0.34, acute GvhD °III/IV 0.13, severe chronic GvHD 0.27. OS rates differed dependent on disease status. An effect of the given ATLG dose could not be separated from potential center effects. Despite higher age and more advanced disease in ATOS, outcome was similar to the ATLG arm of our RCT. This long-term, multicenter, experience in routine clinical practice confirms the GvHD-protective effect of ATLG without compromising relapse and non-relapse mortality rates.Clinical Trial Registry: German clinical trials register DRKS00004581.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of combined immunodeficiency (CID) and explore prognostic risk factors. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, clinical characteristics, laboratory tests and prognosis of 73 CID children who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from February 2014 to April 2022 in the Children's Hospital of Fudan University were analyzed. Based on the subtypes of diseases, all patients were divided into severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) group and other CID group. Based on the types of donors, all patients were divided into matched sibling donor group, matched unrelated donor group, unrelated cord blood group, and haploidentical donor group. Kaplan-Meier method and Log-Rank test were used to analyze the survival data. Cox regression was used to analyze prognostic factors. Results: Among the 73 patients, there were 61 (84%) males and 12 (16%) females. Fifty-five (75%) patients were SCID, and 18 (25%) patients were other CID. Donor source included 2 (3%) matched sibling donors (MSD), 3 (4%) matched unrelated donors (MUD), 64 (88%) unrelated cord blood (UCB), and 4 (5%) haploidentical donors. The age at transplant was 10.7 (5.9, 27.5) months, and the follow-up time was 36.2 (2.5, 62.9) months. The 3-year overall survival rate of 73 patients with CID was (67±6) %. No significant difference was found in the 3-year overall survival rates between patients with SCID (55 cases) and other CID (18 cases) ((64±7) % vs. (78±10) %, χ2=1.31, P=0.252). And no significant difference was found in the 3-year overall survival rates among patients who received MSD or MUD (5 cases), UCB (64 cases), and haploidentical donor (4 cases) transplant (100% vs. (66±6)% vs. (50±25) %, χ2=2.30, P=0.317). Cox regression analysis showed that the medical history of sepsis (HR=2.55, 95%CI 1.05-6.20, P=0.039) and hypoalbuminemia at transplant (HR=2.96, 95%CI 1.14-7.68, P=0.026) were independent risk factors for the prognosis of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in pediatric patients with CID. Conclusions: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective treatment for CID. The medical history of sepsis and hypoalbuminemia at transplant were risk factors for prognosis. Enhancing infection prevention and nutritional intervention before transplant can improve patient prognosis.

Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only curative therapy for adult T-cell leukaemia/lymphoma (ATL). Specific HLAs are associated with outcomes of immunotherapy and allo-HSCT. We hypothesised that individual HLAs would affect the clinical outcomes of ATL patients after allo-HSCT. Using data from a Japanese registry, we retrospectively analysed 829 patients with ATL who received transplants from HLA-identical sibling donors or HLA-A, -B, -C or -DRB1 allele-matched unrelated donors between 1996 and 2015. We evaluated the overall mortality risk of HLA-A, -B and -DR antigens with frequencies exceeding 3%. Outcomes were compared between transplants with or without specific HLA antigens. Of the 25 HLAs, two candidates were identified but showed no statistically significant differences by multiple comparison. HLA-B62 was associated with a lower risk of mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 0.68; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.51-0.90; p = 0.008), whereas HLA-B60 was associated with a higher risk of mortality (HR, 1.64; 95% CI: 1.19-2.27; p = 0.003). In addition, HLA-B62 was associated with a lower risk of transplant-related mortality (TRM) (HR, 0.52; 95% CI: 0.32-0.85, p = 0.009), whereas HLA-B60 was associated with a higher risk of grades III-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (HR, 2.63; 95% CI: 1.62-4.27; p < 0.001). Neither HLA influenced relapse. The higher risk of acute GVHD in HLA-B60-positive patients and the lower risk of TRM in HLA-B62-positive patients were consistent with previously obtained results from patients with other haematological malignancies. Consideration of HLA in ATL patients may help to predict risk and outcomes after allo-HSCT.

Data comparing HLA-haploidentical donors and HLA-matched sibling donors (MSDs) in peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) for lymphoma are scarce. We retrospectively analyzed 465 patients with lymphoma aged 16 years or older who underwent PBSCT using haploidentical donors with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy-haplo) (n = 166) or MSDs with calcineurin inhibitor-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis (n = 299). Two-year overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) in the PTCy-haplo and MSD groups were 49.2% versus 51.9% (P = 0.64), 38.0% versus 39.9% (P = 0.97), and 27.7% versus 18.5% (P = 0.006), respectively. In multivariable analyses, PTCy-haplo recipients had slower neutrophil recovery (hazard ratio [HR], 0.62; P < 0.001) and platelet recovery (HR, 0.54; P < 0.001), lower risk of chronic GVHD (HR, 0.64; P = 0.038) and extensive chronic GVHD (HR, 0.45; P = 0.008), and better GRFS (HR, 0.66; P = 0.003) than MSD transplant recipients. OS, PFS, relapse or progression, and non-relapse mortality were similar between the groups. The difference might be mainly due to PTCy use rather than donor type; however, the results suggested that PTCy-haplo could be a possible option as an alternative to conventional MSD transplantation for lymphoma in PBSCT.

Acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) are major complications of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT). In vivo T-cell depletion with anti-T-lymphocyte globulin (ATLG) as part of the conditioning regimen prior to alloHCT is frequently used as GvHD prophylaxis, but data on its role in myelofibrosis is scarce. We took advantage of an international collaborative network to investigate the impact of ATLG in myelofibrosis undergoing first alloHCT. We included 707 patients (n = 469 ATLG and n = 238 non-ATLG prophylaxis). The cumulative incidence of acute GvHD grade II-IV was 30% for the ATLG group vs. 56% for the non-ATLG group (P < 0.001). Acute GvHD grade III-IV occurred in 20% vs. 25%, respectively (P = 0.01). Incidence of mild-to-severe chronic GvHD was 49% vs. 50% (P = 0.52), while ATLG showed significantly lower rates of severe chronic GvHD (7% vs. 18%; P = 0.04). GvHD-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS) at 6 years was 45% for the ATLG group vs. 37% for the non-ATLG group (P = 0.02), driven by significantly improved GRFS of ATLG in matched related and matched unrelated donors. No significant differences in risk for relapse, non-relapse mortality, and overall survival were observed. Multivariable modeling for GRFS showed a 48% reduced risk of GvHD, relapse, or death when using ATLG.

We aimed to compare outcomes following treosulfan (TREO) or busulfan (BU) conditioning in a large cohort of myelofibrosis (MF) patients from the EBMT registry. A total of 530 patients were included; 73 received TREO and 457 BU (BU ≤ 6.4 mg/kg in 134, considered RIC, BU > 6.4 mg/kg in 323 considered higher dose (HD)). Groups were compared using adjusted Cox models. Cumulative incidences of engraftment and acute GVHD were similar across the 3 groups. The TREO group had significantly better OS than BU-HD (HR:0.61, 95% CI: 0.39-0.93) and a trend towards better OS over BU-RIC (HR: 0.66, 95% CI: 0.41-1.05). Moreover, the TREO cohort had a significantly better Progression-Free-Survival (PFS) than both the BU-HD (HR: 0.57, 95% CI: 0.38-0.84) and BU-RIC (HR: 0.60, 95% CI: 0.39-0.91) cohorts, which had similar PFS estimates. Non-relapse mortality (NRM) was reduced in the TREO and BU-RIC cohorts (HR: 0.44, 95% CI: 0.24-0.80 TREO vs BU-HD; HR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.28-1.04 TREO vs BU-RIC). Of note, relapse risk did not significantly differ across the three groups. In summary, within the limits of a registry-based study, TREO conditioning may improve PFS in MF HSCT and have lower NRM than BU-HD with a similar relapse risk to BU-RIC. Prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Poor prognostic factors, such as transfusion dependency and chromosomal risk, need to be considered in the indication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for patients harboring myelodysplastic syndromes with less than 5% marrow blasts (MDS-Lo). We analyzed the post-transplant outcomes of 1229 MDS-Lo patients who received myeloablative (MAC)(n = 651), reduced-intensity (RIC)(n = 397), and non-myeloablative conditioning (NMAC) regimens (n = 181). The multivariate analysis revealed that the RIC group had better chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)- and relapse-free survival (CRFS) (P = 0.021), and GVHD- and relapse-free survival (GRFS) than the MAC group (P = 0.001), while no significant differences were observed between the NMAC and MAC groups. In the subgroup analysis, the MAC group has better overall survival (P = 0.008) than the RIC group among patients with an HCT-comorbidity index (HCT-CI) score of 0, while the RIC group had better overall survival (P = 0.029) than the MAC group among those with an HCT-CI score ≥3. According to the type of conditioning regimen, total body irradiation 12 Gy-based MAC regimen showed better OS and CRFS than the other MAC regimen, and comparable outcomes to the RIC regimen. In conclusion, the RIC and NMAC regimens are promising options for MDS-Lo patients in addition to the MAC regimen.

Advanced stage (IIB-IVB) Mycosis Fungoides (MF) and Sezary Syndrome (SS) have a poor prognosis with median survival <5 years. We report long-term outcomes of a non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation regimen consisting of total skin electron beam therapy, total lymphoid irradiation and antithymocyte globulin. Our prospective cohort consisted of 41 patients with a higher proportion of MF (34MF, 7SS). Acute GVHD Grade 2 to 4 was seen in 31.7% and chronic GVHD Grade 2 to 4 in 24%. The cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality was 9.8% at 1 year and 12.6% at 2 years. At Day +90 post-transplant 66% of patients had a complete response (CR). With a median post-transplant follow up of 5.27 years, the 5-year overall survival rate was 37.7% (MF 36.7%, SS 57.1%). The 5-year cumulative incidence of progressive disease or relapse was 52.7% in all patients but only 20.8% in those with CR at transplant compared to 70.6% in those not in CR at transplant (p = 0.006). Long term survival is possible in advanced MF and SS with non-myeloablative transplantation and outcomes are improved in patients with CR at transplant.

ABSTRACT: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major cause of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Algorithms containing either the gastrointestinal (GI) GVHD biomarker amphiregulin (AREG) or a combination of 2 GI GVHD biomarkers (suppressor of tumorigenicity-2 [ST2] + regenerating family member 3 alpha [REG3α]) when measured at GVHD diagnosis are validated predictors of NRM risk but have never been assessed in the same patients using identical statistical methods. We measured the serum concentrations of ST2, REG3α, and AREG by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at the time of GVHD diagnosis in 715 patients divided by the date of transplantation into training (2004-2015) and validation (2015-2017) cohorts. The training cohort (n = 341) was used to develop algorithms for predicting the probability of 12-month NRM that contained all possible combinations of 1 to 3 biomarkers and a threshold corresponding to the concordance probability was used to stratify patients for the risk of NRM. Algorithms were compared with each other based on several metrics, including the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve, proportion of patients correctly classified, sensitivity, and specificity using only the validation cohort (n = 374). All algorithms were strong discriminators of 12-month NRM, whether or not patients were systemically treated (n = 321). An algorithm containing only ST2 + REG3α had the highest area under the receiver operating characteristics curve (0.757), correctly classified the most patients (75%), and more accurately risk-stratified those who developed Minnesota standard-risk GVHD and for patients who received posttransplant cyclophosphamide-based prophylaxis. An algorithm containing only AREG more accurately risk-stratified patients with Minnesota high-risk GVHD. Combining ST2, REG3α, and AREG into a single algorithm did not improve performance.
