Project description:Factors predicting allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) outcomes in myelofibrosis in the early post-HCT period have not been defined thus far. We attempt to study such factors that can help identify patients at a higher risk of relapse or death. This retrospective study included 79 patients who underwent first HCT for myelofibrosis at three centers between 2005 and 2016. Univariate analysis showed that red blood cell (RBC) transfusion dependence (HR 9.02, 95% CI 4.0-20.35), platelet transfusion dependence (HR 8.17, 95%CI 3.83-17.37), 100% donor chimerism in CD33 + cells (HR 0.21, 95%CI 0.07-0.62), unfavorable molecular status (HR 4.41, 95%CI 1.87-10.39), normal spleen size (HR 0.42, 95%CI 0.19-0.94), grade ≥ 2 bone marrow fibrosis (vs. grade ≤ 1; HR 2.7, 95%CI 1.1-6.93) and poor graft function (HR 2.6, 95%CI 1.22-5.53) at day +100 were statistically significantly associated with relapse-free survival (RFS). RBC transfusion dependence and unfavorable molecular status were also statistically significant in the multivariate analysis. Patients in whom both of these factors were present had a significantly worse RFS when compared to those with one or none. While limited by a small sample size, we demonstrate the significance of transfusion dependence and molecular status at day +100 in predicting outcomes.

Project description:For most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) harboring a trisomy 8 an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a suitable and recommended consolidation therapy. However, comparative outcome analyses between patients with and without trisomy 8 undergoing allogeneic HSCT have not been performed so far. We retrospectively analyzed clinical features, outcomes, and measurable residual disease (MRD) of 659 AML (12%, n = 81, with a trisomy 8) patients subjected to allogeneic HSCT as a consolidation therapy. The presence of a trisomy 8 associated with a trend for higher age at diagnosis, AML of secondary origin, lower white blood cell counts at diagnosis, worse ELN2017 genetic risk, wild-type NPM1, and mutated IDH1/2 and JAK2. Outcomes after allogeneic HSCT in the entire cohort did not differ between patients with a sole trisomy 8, trisomy 8 with additional cytogenetic aberrations or without a trisomy 8. A trisomy 8 did not affect outcomes within the three ELN2017 risk groups. In accordance with findings in unselected patient cohorts, persistent MRD at allogeneic HSCT in patients with a trisomy 8 identified individuals with a higher risk of relapse following allogeneic HSCT. Outcomes of trisomy 8 patients after allogeneic HSCT did not compare unfavorably to that of other AML patients following allogeneic HSCT. Rather than the presence or absence of a trisomy 8, additional genetic aberrations and MRD at HSCT define outcome differences and aid in informed treatment decisions.

Project description:A toxicity-reduced conditioning regimen with treosulfan, fludarabine, and thiotepa in patients with high-risk β-thalassemia major has significantly improved hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) outcomes. However, complications resulting from regimen-related toxicities (RRTs), mixed chimerism, and graft rejection remain a challenge. We evaluated the dose-exposure-response relationship of treosulfan and its active metabolite S, S-EBDM, in a uniform cohort of patients with β-thalassemia major to identify whether therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) and dose adjustment of treosulfan is feasible. Plasma treosulfan/S, S-EBDM levels were measured in 77 patients using a validated liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method, and the pharmacokinetic parameters were estimated using nlmixr2. The influence of treosulfan and S, S-EBDM exposure, and GSTA1/NQO1 polymorphisms on graft rejection, RRTs, chimerism status, and 1-year overall survival (OS), and thalassemia-free survival (TFS) were assessed. We observed that treosulfan exposure was lower in patients with graft rejection than those without (1,655 vs. 2,037 mg•h/L, P = 0.07). Pharmacodynamic modeling analysis to identify therapeutic cutoff revealed that treosulfan exposure ≥1,660 mg•hour/L was significantly associated with better 1-year TFS (97% vs. 81%, P = 0.02) and a trend to better 1-year OS (90% vs. 69%, P = 0.07). Further, multivariate analysis adjusting for known pre-HCT risk factors also revealed treosulfan exposure <1,660 mg•h/L (hazard ratio (HR) = 3.23; 95% confidence interval (CI) = 1.12-9.34; P = 0.03) and GSTA1*B variant genotype (HR = 3.75; 95% CI = 1.04-13.47; P = 0.04) to be independent predictors for inferior 1-year TFS. We conclude that lower treosulfan exposure increases the risk of graft rejection and early transplant-related mortality affecting TFS. As no RRTs were observed with increasing treosulfan exposure, TDM-based dose adjustment could be feasible and beneficial.

Project description:Studies investigating association of depression with overall survival (OS) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) yielded conflicting results. A nationwide cohort study, which included all adult patients [n = 7,170; depression group, 13.3% (N = 956); non-depression group, 86.7% (N = 6,214)] who received allo-HSCT from 2002 to 2018 in South Korea, analyzed risk of pre-transplant depression in OS of allo-HSCT. Subjects were followed from the day they received allo-HSCT, to occurrence of death, or last follow-up day (December 31, 2018). Median age at allo-HSCT for depression and non-depression groups were 50 and 45 (p < 0.0001), respectively. Two groups also differed in rate of females (depression group, 55.8%; non-depression group, 43.8%; p < 0.0001) and leukemia (depression group, 61.4%; non-depression group, 49.7%; p < 0.0001). After a median follow-up of 29.1 months, 5-year OS rate was 63.1%. Cox proportional-hazard regression evaluated an adjusted risk of post-transplant mortality related to depression: OS decreased sequentially from no depression (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR] = 1) to pre-transplant depression only (aHR = 1.167, CI: 1.007-1.352, p = 0.04), and to having both depression and anxiety disorder (aHR = 1.202, CI: 1.038-1.393, p = 0.014) groups. Pre-transplant anxiety (anxiety only) did not have significant influence in OS. Additional medical and psychiatric care might be necessary in patients who experienced depression, especially with anxiety, before allo-HSCT.

Project description:Graft versus host disease (GVHD) remains one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality associated with conventional allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT). The use of T-cell depletion significantly reduces this complication. Recent prospective and retrospective data suggest that, in patients with AML in first complete remission, CD34+ selected grafts afford overall and relapse-free survival comparable to those observed in recipients of conventional grafts, while significantly decreasing GVHD. In addition, CD34+ selected grafts allow older patients, and those with medical comorbidities or with only HLA-mismatched donors to successfully undergo transplantation. Prospective data are needed to further define which groups of patients with AML are most likely to benefit from CD34+ selected grafts. Here we review the history of T-cell depletion in AML, and techniques used. We then summarize the contemporary literature using CD34+ selection in recipients of matched or partially mismatched donors (7/8 or 8/8 HLA-matched), and provide a summary of the risks and benefits of using T-cell depletion.

Project description:PurposeCognitive impairment is common and consequential in patients with cancer who undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, there is no standard of care for evaluating cognition in patients prior to or after receiving HSCT, and it is not known which patients are at highest risk for cognitive impairment. The objectives of this study were to describe cognitive function in patients prior to allogeneic HSCT and identify demographic, disease-related, and psychosocial factors associated with cognitive function.MethodsPrior to HSCT, participants completed the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA). We assessed bivariable associations between continuous MoCA scores and demographic, disease-related, and psychosocial variables using linear regression. Variables significant at the p < 0.2 level were adjusted for age, sex, and years of education in multiple linear regression analyses.ResultsOver 50% of participants demonstrated evidence of cognitive impairment (MoCA < 26) prior to transplantation. When adjusted for demographic variables, two characteristics were significantly associated with worse cognitive function: the hematopoietic cell transplantation-comorbidity index score (p = 0.01) and history of alcohol or substance abuse (p = 0.02). Pre-HSCT cancer and cancer treatment-specific variables were not associated with cognitive function.ConclusionCognitive impairment is common in patients scheduled to receive HSCT. Pre-transplantation evaluation of medical comorbidities and history of substance abuse may be important in identifying patients at risk for cognitive impairment. Further research characterizing the trajectory and impact of cognitive impairment on patient symptom burden and function may help improve outcomes.

Project description:BackgroundCancer survival is associated with body mass index (BMI). However, the impact of patients' baseline characteristics on allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) outcomes remains unclear. This study aimed to examine the baseline clinical factors associated with 5-year survival rates in patients undergoing allo-HSCT.Material and methodsThis was a retrospective exploratory observational study. Patients (n = 113, 52 women; average age: 55 years) who underwent allo-HSCT at the Division of Hematology and Stem Cell Transplantation, Shizuoka Cancer Center, between January 2008 and March 2015, were included in the present study.ResultsPatients with low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2) had significantly lower 5-year survival rates than those with normal (18.5-24.9 kg/m2) and high (⩾25.0 kg/m2) BMI. The 5-year survival rate was poorer for patients with sarcopenia (41.5%) than that for those without sarcopenia prior to allo-HSCT (P = .05). The 5-year survival rate was poorer for patients with geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI < 98) (34.5%) than that for those without GNRI prior to allo-HSCT (P < .01).ConclusionsLow BMI before allo-HCST pre-treatment was a predictor of 5-year survival rates in this study. Patients undergoing allo-HSCT may require nutritional interventions during pre-treatment to reduce the risk of sarcopenia and GNRI (<98), which affects their survival rates.

Project description:The optimal conditioning regimen for older patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains unclear. In this study, we compared outcomes of AML patients >60 years of age undergoing allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at our institution. All 404 consecutively treated patients received 1 of the following conditioning regimens: (1) fludarabine+melphalan 100 mg/m2 (FM100), (2) fludarabine+melphalan 140 mg/m2 (FM140), (3) fludarabine+IV busulfan AUC ≥ 5000/d × 4 d (Bu≥20000), and (4) fludarabine+IV busulfan AUC 4000/d × 4 d (Bu16000). A propensity score analysis (PSA) was used to compare outcomes between these 4 groups. Among the 4 conditioning regimens, the FM100 group had a significantly better long-term survival with 5-year progression-free survival of 49% vs 30%, 34%, and 23%, respectively. The benefit of the FM100 regimen resulted primarily from the lower nonrelapse mortality associated with this regimen, an effect more pronounced in patients with lower performance status. The PSA confirmed that FM100 was associated with better posttransplantation survival, whereas no significant differences were seen between the other regimen groups. In summary, older patients with AML benefited from a reduced-intensity conditioning regimen with lower melphalan doses (FM100), which was associated with better survival, even though it was primarily used in patients who could not receive a more intense conditioning regimen.

Project description:The diversity of human leukocyte antigens (HLAs) enables the presentation of immense repertoires of peptides, including tumor-associated antigens (TAAs). As a surrogate for immunopeptidome diversity, the HLA evolutionary divergence (HED) between individual HLA alleles might directly define the ability to present TAAs, a prerequisite for graft-versus-leukemia effects. We therefore analyzed the impact of HED on survival within a cohort of 171 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients after matched donor allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Low HED (<25th percentile) of HLA class I (HEDclass I) or HLA-DR antigens (HEDDR) was a strong determinant for adverse overall survival after allogeneic HSCT (OS), with a hazard ratio for death of 1.9 (95% CI 1.2-3.2) and 2.1 (95% CI 1.3-3.4), respectively. Defining a cutoff value for the combined HEDtotal (HEDclass I and HEDDR), the respective 5 year OS was 29.7% and 64.9% in patients with low and high HEDtotal (p < 0.001), respectively. Furthermore, the risk of relapse was significantly higher in patients with low HEDtotal (hazard ratio (HR) 2.2, 95% CI 1.3-3.6) and event-free survival (EFS) was significantly reduced (5 year EFS 25.7% versus 54.4%, p < 0.001). We here introduce HED, a fundamental metric of immunopeptidome diversity, as a novel prognostic factor for AML patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT.

Project description:For most patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers the highest chance of cure. Recently, the European LeukemiaNet (ELN) published updated recommendations on the diagnosis and risk classification in AML based on genetic factors at diagnosis as well as a dynamic adjustment (reclassification) according to the measurable residual disease (MRD) status for the favorable and intermediate risk groups. Validation of the ELN2022 risk classification has not been reported. We retrospectively analyzed 522 AML patients who received an HSCT at a median age of 59 (range 16-76) years. For patients with adequate material available and in remission prior to HSCT (n = 229), the MRD status was evaluated. Median follow-up after HSCT was 3.0 years. ELN2022 risk at diagnosis was in 22% favorable, in 26% intermediate, and in 52% adverse. ELN2022 risk at diagnosis is associated with the cumulative incidence of relapse/progression (CIR), event-free survival (EFS), and overall survival (OS) in the whole patient cohort, as well as the subgroup of patients transplanted in first remission. However, the risk stratification based on the ELN2022 classification did not significantly improve outcome prognostication in comparison to the ELN2017 classification. In our study, the newly added group of patients with myelodysplasia-related gene mutations did not have adverse outcomes. Re-classifying these patients into the intermediate risk group and adjusting the grouping for all AML patients by MRD at HSCT, led to a refined and improved risk stratification, which should be validated in independent studies.
