ABSTRACT

Breakthroughs in the immunotherapy of acute leukemia have been achieved in recent years. The paper summarizes the clinical results, experience, and prospect in this area. One of the most significant advancements is the finding that anti-CD19 chimeric anti-gen receptor T cells (CAR-T) or CD3/CD19 bispecific antibody increases the rate of complete remission in patients with refractory re-lapse acute B lymphocytic leukemia. The disease-free survival of patients with low or intermediate risk was dramatically improved by combining chemotherapy and adoptive cytokine-induced killer or natural killer cells. Many immunotherapy methods, such as those fo-cusing on other targets of CAR-T, T-cell antigen receptor-modified T cell, and other targets of bispecific antibodies, are currently being examined. Combined methods can further increase cure rate and improve patients' quality of life, decreasing application of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation which increases risks and reduces the quality of life.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To analyze the effect of NCCN (2015) risk stratification on prognosis of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) .@*Methods@#Retrospective analysis of 258 patients with AML in CR (186 cases in CR1, 72 cases in CR2) who underwent allogeneic HSCT in our hospital between April 2012 and March 2015 according to NCCN (2015) risk stratification. Of them, 63 cases were classified as low risk, 112 cases intermediate risk and 83 cases high risk.@*Results@#①With the median follow up of 18 (5-41) months, two-year disease free surviva (DFS) in 258 patients was 78.0% (95% CI 60.4%-96.6%) . Two-year DFS in AML after transplantation was 78.6% (95% CI 61.0%-96.2%) in low risk, 76.0% (95% CI 84.0%-93.6%) in intermediate risk and 80.3% (95% CI 62.7%-97.9%) (P=0.886) in high risk groups respectively. ②Univariate analysis showed that DFS has no significant difference in patient age, the median disease course before HSCT, the WBC number at the beginning of the disease, blood routine and chromosomes examination before transplantation, extramedullary disease before transplantation, disease status before transplantation, conditioning regimen, donor type, donor and recipient sex, recipient blood type, transfused MNC number, transfused CD34+ cell number and transfused CD3+ cell number. DFS was significant lower in primary AML than that in secondary AML (P=0.006) and also lower in MRD positive than that in MRD negative (P=0.003) . The accumulative relapse was significant higher in CR2 compared to that in CR1 (P=0.046) . Accumulative non-relapse mortality (NRM) was significanlyt higher in secondary AML compared to that in primary AML (P=0.004) and also higher in MRD positive compared to that in MRD negative (P=0.010) . ③Multivariate analysis showed that MRD positive was the only significant factor in DFS and NRM.@*Conclusion@#Allo-HSCT treatment of AML CR patients could achieve a high efficacy, which is similar between CR1 and CR2 patients. There is no significant correlation between NCCN (2015) risk stratification and the prognosis of AML patients with allo-HSCT treatment. Pre-conditioning MRD status monitored by multiparameter flow cytometry was the only impact factor on DFS and NRM in allo-HSCT for CR-AML patients.

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the etiological factor and genetic feature of a familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis patient with PRF1 mutation (FHL2) with human herpesvirus 7 (HHV7)infection and its family constellation. Methods Clinical characteristics, laboratory examinations of a FHL2 case with HHV7 infection were reported. HHV1-HHV8 virus DNA was screened by PCR; NK cell function was analyzed by flow cytometry; PRF1 gene mutations were analyzed by PCR and direct sequencing, structure of mutant PRF1 proteins were analyzed using ExPasy and I-TASSER server and genetics pedigree were analyzed. Results The patient's HHV7 viral was detected positive with DNA copy number of 350/106 peripheral nucleated cells. Flow cytometry analysis showed decrease both in proportion of perforin positive NK cells and perforin protein expression. Genetic testing showed PRF1 biallelic heterozygote mutations (c. 503G > A/p. S168N and c. 1177T > C/p. C393R) and pedigree analysis showed they were inherited. The patient was then treated with antivirus therapy, dexamethasone and VP16 therapy, but only achieved partial response. The patient was then followed by human leukocyte antigen 10/10 allele identical nonconsanguinity allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (allo-HSCT) and soon the successful implantation of donor hematopoietic cells and persistent recovery was achieved. The patient was now surviving without recurrence for 9 months after allo-HSCT. Conclusions FHL is prone to be misdiagnosed as lymphoma. Genetic analysis of related gene mutation and herpes simplex virus detection will help in early and accurate diagnosis. Allo-HSCT is a fundamental treatment of FHL.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate early Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) reactivation and the outcome of preemptive therapy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods From January 2007 to January 2009, totally 277 patients after allo-HSCT were studied (haploidentical 116,unrelated 75, matched sibling 86). Conditioning regimens were mainly busulfan (BU) + cyclophosphamide ( CY)/fludarabine(Flu) or total body irradiation (TBI) + CY/Flu. Antihuman thymocyte globulin (ATG)was added in haploidentical and unrelated transplants. Plasma EBV DNA was monitored once to twice weekly in the first 3 months after allo-HSCT with real time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RQ-PCR). EBV viremia was diagnosed when EBV DNA was more than 5 × 102 copies/ml but without symptoms. Acyclovir (10 mg/kg, intravenous drip, 8 h) was used for preemptive therapy and immnuo-suppressants were decreased if possible. Results Totally 33 patients ( 11.9% ) developed EBV viremia with a median time at day 44 (day 19 to day 84). The incidences of EBV viremia in the transplants from matched sibling,haploidentical, unrelated donors were 0, 15.5%, 20. 0%, respectively. There was no significant difference between haploidentical and unrelated transplants ( P = 0. 09 ), but much less EBV viremia was seen in matched sibling transplant ( P = 0. 001 ). Twenty of 33 patients ( 60. 6% ) had complete response to preemptive therapy. The median time to reach EBV DNA negative in plasma was 11 (4-56) d. The median duration of preemptive therapy was 21 (14-60) d. Both univariate and multivariate analysis indicated that haploidentical and unrelated transplants, acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) were the risk factors for EBV viremia. Two-year overall survival in the patients with EBV viremia was significantly lower than that without EBV viremia (54. 2% vs 72. 1%, P = 0. 006 ). Conclusions Our large clinical study has demonstrated that preemptive therapy with acyclovir that is guided by EBV viremia is effective in majority of the patients with high-risk for EBV reactivation after allo-HSCT, which may further decrease the risk for developing life-threatening EBV disease or post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorder. Haploidentical and unrelated transplants, acute GVHD are the risk factors for EBV viremia which has negative impact on survival.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the value of flow cytometry in identifying metastatic CK positive and negative nonhematopoietic neoplasms in bone marrow. Methods Twenty-six cell lines representing ten epithelial neoplasms, one lymphoma cell line and one human T cell lymphoblast-like cell line were purchased from American Tissue Culture Collection. From July 2009 to June 2010, five nonhematopoietic neoplasms,fifteen hematopoietic neoplasms and fifteen control patients with complete remession after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation were collected in Beijing Daopei Hospital. Cryopreserved cell lines were thawed and cultured until they entered log phase. After permeabilization, cell lines were analyzed by staining with cytoplasmic CK-FITC antibody using four-color flow cytometer. The percent CK positivity was measured by comparing with negative control. Bone marrow samples were stained with membrane and cytoplasmic antibodies according to our routine methods. Based on lineage markers and blast markers as well as CK expression, the relevant hematopoietic diseases were diagnosed or excluded according to 2008 World Health Organization diagnosis standards. Results All epithelial neoplasm cell lines expressed CK, with average positive percentage 81.1%. All the lymphoid tumor cell lines didn't express CK. Two epithelial neoplasms were CK positive, 100. 0% in thyroid carcinoma and 98. 2% in lung carcinoma, respectively. Hematopoietic tumor and control samples didn't express CK. They expressed relevant hematopoietic markers, such as CD45 as well as lineage markers, or CD138 and cytoplasmic immunoglobulin light chain. Three nonepithelial nonhematopoietic neoplasms didn't express CK. CK positive or negative nonhematopoietic neoplasms didn't express hematopoietic markers such as CD45, HLA-ABC and HLA-DR DP DQ, as well as lineage specific markers. Besides, CK positive might be helpful to suggest epithelial origin. Conclusion Flow cytometry with hematopoietic markers and CK can effectively exclude hematopoietic tumor and identify metastatic CK positive and negative nonhematopoietic neoplasms in bone marrow.

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the type and corresponding clinical characteristics of primary hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH) associated immune gene mutations in the refractory virus infection or HLH of unknown causes. Methods From December 2009 to July 2010, the patients with refractory virus infection or HLH of unknown causes were screened for the primary HLH associated immune genes mutations by DNA sequence analysis, including PRF1, UNC13D, STX11, STXBP2, SH2D1A and XIAP. The clinical characteristics and outcomes were followed up. Results Totally 25 patients with refractory virus infection or HLH of unknown causes were investigated for the 6 genes and 13 cases were found carrying gene mutations, composing of 6 of PRF1 mutation, 3 of UNC13D, and each one of STX11,XIAP, SH2D1A and STXBP2, respectively. Among the 13 cases with gene mutations, 5 suffered from Epstein-Barr virus associated HLH( EBV-HLH), 1 human herpes virus 7 associated HLH (HHV7-HLH),1 HLH without causes, 4 chronic activated EB virus infection (CAEBV) with 1 progressing to Hodgkin's lymphoma carrying abnormal chromosome of t ( 15; 17 ) (q22; q25 ) and hyperdiploid, 2 EBV associated lymphoma. Among the other 12 patients without gene mutation, 4 suffered from EBV-HLH with 1 progressing to peripheral T lymphoma, 8 suffered from CAEBV. Conclusions Primary HLH associated immune gene mutations are critical causes of refractory virus infection of unknown causes, most patients manifest as HLH,some cases appear in CAEBV and EBV associated lymphoma. DNA sequence analysis is helpful to early diagnosis and correct decision-making for treatment.

ABSTRACT

Remarkable achievements have been made for lymphocyte infusion of lymphoma and leukemia, especially of lymphoproliferative disease within twenty-first century. The donor lymphocyte infusion or mobilized donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI/DSI) offer an opportunity of second remission for relapse patients post-transplantation. Cytokine-induced killer/DC cytokine-induced killer play an anti-tumor activity beyond non-MHC restricted. Cytotoxic lymphocyte infusion activated by synthetic tumor antigen produces targeted effects of anti-tumor. Transgenic CTL of anti-tumor TCR has brought the dawn in lymphoma and leukemia patients with defective lymphocytes. Maternal lymphocyte infusion play an anti-tumor/viral activity by avoiding the immune barrier of HLA mismatch.

ABSTRACT

Objective To develop a multiplex sequence-specific PCR assay for simultaneous screening of 5 types of JAK2 mutations and investigate its clinical application value. Methods Multiplex sequence-specific PCR assay for simultaneous screening of JAK2 V617F, K539L (include 2 types of gene mutations), N542-E543del and E543-D544del mutations were developed. 115 patients with myeloproliferative diseases (MPD) including 61 polycythemia vera (PV) cases, 43 essential thrombocythemia (ET) cases and 11 primary myelofibrosis (MF) cases were analyzed. Results The assay can screen the 5 types of JAK2 mutations efficiently. The detection sensitivity is 1% for JAK2 V617F mutation and 0.1% for the other mutations. JAK2 V617F mutation and JAK2 exon12 mutation were detected in 56 and 3 of the 61 PV samples, respectively. 27 of the 43 ET samples and 6 of the 11 MF samples were JAK2 V617F positive, but no JAK2 exon12 mutation was found in both groups. The 3 cases carrying JAK2 exon12 mutation had the clinical feature of erythrocytosis and erythropoietin-independent erythroid colony formation but without apparent leukocytosis, thrombocytosis and splenectasis. Conclusion The assay can simultaneously screen 5 types of JAK2 mutations with high sensitivity and thus lead to an increased detection rate.

ABSTRACT

Objective To deepen the understanding of chronic eosinophilic leukemia (CEL).Methods The course of diagnosis and treatment in a case of FIP1L1/PDGFRα fusion gene negative CEL was reported. Flow cytometry was used to analyze the immunophenotype of the cells in peripheral blood and pleural fluid. Karyotype was analyzed with G-banding. The expression of FIP1L1/PDGFRα fusion gene was detected by RT-PCR technique. Routine pathological examination of the tissues from bone marrow, lung and spleen were performed. Result A sixteen-year-old girl had severe anemia, fever, splenomegaly,thrombocytopenia and dominant hypereosinophilia lasting for 22 months. Trephine biopsy showed a hypercellular marrow with eosinophilic proliferation and moderate reticular fibrosis. Eosinophilic infiltration was found in lung and spleen and embolism was also found in spleen. She had a clonal chromosomal abnormality t(5;12)(q31;p13). The expression of FIP1L1/PDGFRα was negative. An abnormal clone of T cells expressing CD3-,CD4-,CD8- was found in peripheral blood and pleural fluid, in which the cional T cell accounted for 5.43% and 1.66% of the total lymphocytes respectively. The patient was refractory to treatment with hydroxyurea, prednisone and interferon alpha. She had poor response to a combination of therapy with low dose cytosine arabinoside, mitoxantrone, vincristine, cyclophosphamide, methotrexate and prednisone. She did not respond to imatinib and died of multiple organ failure. Conclusion The present case fulfilled the WHO diagnostic criteria of FIP1L1/PDGFRα(-) CEL which did not respond to routine treatment and imatinib. Allogenic stem cell transplantation should be considered as early as possible in this case. It is noteworthy that clonal CD3-,CD4-,CD8- T-cell abnormality is related to the pathogenesis of CEL.
