Across the Myeloablative Spectrum: Hematopoietic Cell Transplant Conditioning Regimens for Pediatric Patients with Sickle Cell Disease.

ABSTRACT: One out of every five hundred African American children in the United States has sickle cell disease (SCD). While multiple disease-modifying therapies are available, hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) remains the only curative option for children with SCD. HLA-matched sibling HCT has demonstrated excellent efficacy, but its availability remains limited; alternative donor strategies are increasingly explored. While Busulfan-Cyclophosphamide has become the most widespread conditioning regimen employed in HCT for pediatric SCD, many other regimens have been examined. This review explores different conditioning regimens across the intensity spectrum: from myeloablative to non-myeloablative. We describe survival and organ function outcomes in pediatric SCD patients who have received HCT and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the various conditioning intensities. Finally, we posit novel directions in allogeneic HCT for SCD.

Project description:BackgroundVenetoclax monotherapy is an effective option for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Venetoclax has also been used in non-myeloablative conditioning allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for high-risk AML with a tolerable toxicity profile. However, the efficacy and safety of a venetoclax-containing myeloablative conditioning (MAC) allo-HSCT regimen for high-risk AML have not been evaluated.ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of a MAC regimen containing venetoclax for high-risk AML.Study designFrom 25 February 2021 to 4 September 2022, a total of 31 patients with high-risk AML who underwent allo-HSCT and a MAC regimen with venetoclax were analyzed.ResultsAt the time of transplantation, 21 patients were in first complete remission (CR1), 4 were in a second complete remission (CR2), and 6 in non-remission (NR). Twenty-four patients (77.4%) were minimal residual disease (MRD)-positive before transplant. The FLT3-ITD gene mutation was present in 51.6% of patients. NUP98 rearrangement, MLL rearrangement or MLL-PTD and DEK::CAN fusion genes were found in 5 (16.1%), 7(22.6%) and 2 (6.5%) patients, respectively. Twenty-nine (93.6%) patients underwent haploidentical allo-HSCT. The median follow-up time was 278 days (range: 52-632 days). The 100-day cumulative incidence of grade 3 to 4 acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was 16.1% (95%CI, 7.2-36.0%). The 180-day cumulative incidence of moderate to severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) was 7.1% (95%CI, 1.9-26.9%). Cumulative incidence of 100-day cytomegalovirus (CMV) viraemia and 100-day Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viraemia was 61.6% (95%CI, 46.5-81.4%) and 3.2% (95%CI, 0.4-22.2%), respectively. The 600-day overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival (LFS) were 80.9% (95%CI, 63.5-93.6%) and 81.3% (95%CI, 64.2-93.7%), respectively. The 600-day relapse incidence (RI) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 6.9% (95%CI, 1.8-26.3%) and 11.7% (95%CI, 3.9-35.0%).ConclusionOur study shows that the addition of venetoclax to a MAC allo-HSCT was feasible, safe and effective for high-risk AML patients.
