ABSTRACT

Though sterile diet, post-transplantation surgery is a clinical strategy for patient care to prevent the infiltration of gut pathogens, less is known about its effects on the gut microbiome. Here, the gut microbiome dynamics of leukemia patients following a 120-day "sterile-normal" diet strategy posthematopoietic cell transplantation are examined. In contrast to the traditional idea, a sterile diet leads to the lowest gut microbiota diversity (p < 0.05) and short-chain fatty acids, promoted the proliferation of potential pathogens such as Streptococcus (up by 16.93%) and Lactobacillus (up by 40.30%), and 43.32% reduction in nodes and an 85.33% reduction in edges within the microbial interaction's network. Interestingly, a normal diet allows the gut microbiome recovery and significantly promotes the abundance of beneficial bacteria. These results indicate that a sterile diet leads to a collapse of the patient's gut microbiome and promoted the proliferation of potential pathogens. This assay is a starting point for a more sophisticated assessment of the effects of a sterile diet. The work also suggests a basic principle for the re-establishment of microbial equilibrium that supplementation of microbial taxa may be the key to the restoration of the degraded ecosystem.

ABSTRACT

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) has different epidemiology in Chinese vs. Western patients, but there are few studies of CLL/SLL in large populations of Chinese patients. ALPINE is a global phase 3 trial investigating Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitors zanubrutinib vs. ibrutinib to treat relapsed/refractory (R/R) CLL/SLL. Here we report results from the subgroup of Chinese patients. Adults with R/R CLL/SLL were randomized 1:1 to receive zanubrutinib (160 mg twice-daily) or ibrutinib (420 mg once-daily) until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Endpoints included overall response rate (ORR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and safety. Data were analyzed descriptively. Ninety patients were randomized in China (zanubrutinib, n = 47; ibrutinib, n = 43). Baseline characteristics were balanced between groups, with fewer male patients in the zanubrutinib vs. ibrutinib group (55.3% vs. 69.8%). Median age was 60.5 years, 11% had del(17p) mutation, and 32% had tumor protein 53 (TP53) mutation. With median 25.3 months follow-up, ORR was 80.9% with zanubrutinib vs. 72.1% with ibrutinib. PFS was improved with zanubrutinib vs. ibrutinib (HR = 0.34 [95% CI, 0.15, 0.77]), and the HR for OS was 0.45 (95% CI, 0.14, 1.50). Rates of Grade ≥ 3 treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs; 64.4% vs. 72.1%), AEs leading to discontinuation (6.4% vs. 14.0%), and serious TEAEs (35.6% vs. 51.2%) were lower with zanubrutinib vs. ibrutinib. Zanubrutinib demonstrated improved ORR, PFS, and OS vs. ibrutinib and a more favorable safety profile in patients with R/R CLL/SLL in China. These results are consistent with the full global population of ALPINE. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT03734016, registered November 7, 2018.

ABSTRACT

The utilization of microfluidic technology for miniaturized and efficient particle sorting holds significant importance in fields such as biology, chemistry, and healthcare. Passive separation methods, achieved by modifying the geometric shapes of microchannels, enable gentle and straightforward enrichment and separation of particles. Building upon previous discussions regarding the effects of column arrays on fluid flow and particle separation within microchips, we introduced a column array structure into an H-shaped microfluidic chip. It was observed that this structure enhanced mass transfer between two fluids while simultaneously intercepting particles within one fluid, satisfying the requirements for particle interception. This enhancement was primarily achieved by transforming the originally single-mode diffusion-based mass transfer into dual-mode diffusion-convection mass transfer. By further optimizing the column array, it was possible to meet the basic requirements of mass transfer and particle interception with fewer microcolumns, thereby reducing device pressure drop and facilitating the realization of parallel and high-throughput microfluidic devices. These findings have enhanced the potential application of microfluidic systems in clinical and chemical engineering domains.

ABSTRACT

Umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) has been rarely reported as a first-line treatment for idiopathic severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients lacking HLA-matched sibling donors (MSD). Our study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of pediatric SAA patients who received UCBT and immunosuppressive therapy (IST) upfront. A retrospective analysis was performed on 43 consecutive patients who received frontline IST (n = 17) or UCBT (n = 26) between July 2017 and April 2022. The 3-year overall survival (OS) was comparable between the UCBT and IST groups (96.2% versus 100%, P = .419), while the 3-year event-free survival (EFS) was significantly better in the former than in the latter (88.5% versus 58.8%, P = .048). In the UCBT group, 24 patients achieved successful engraftment, 2 patients developed severe acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), no extensive chronic GVHD (cGVHD), and a high GVHD-free, failure-free survival (GFFS) of 84.6% at 3 years. After 1 year of treatment, 12 patients in the IST group responded, while 5 patients did not achieve remission and 2 patients had disease relapse. At both 3 and 6 months after treatment, the proportion of transfusion-independent patients was higher in the UCBT group than in the IST group. Faster immune recovery and earlier transfusion independence further reduced the risk of infection and bleeding, thereby improving health-related quality of life in the UCBT-treated group. Our results suggested that UCBT as upfront therapy may be an effective and safe option for pediatric SAA patients, with favorable outcomes in experienced centers.

ABSTRACT

For patients exhibiting a suboptimal response to the first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy (CART1) or relapse after remission, secondary CAR T-cell therapy (CART2) for the same target may be an option. We retrospectively analyzed patients with acute B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) receiving CD19 CART1 at our center (n = 84) to report the clinical outcomes of CART2 and to identify the factors that may influence the outcomes. Twenty-six patients received CART2 for suboptimal response or relapse post-CART1. The incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) after CART2 was 65.4% (17/26), with 11 cases classified as grade 1 (42.3%), four cases as grade 2 (15.4%), and two cases as grade 3 (7.7%). Neurotoxicity was observed in one patient (3.8%) after CART2 infusion. Fourteen patients (53.8%) achieved complete remission (CR) after CART2. CART2 exhibited an inferior response rate (CART2: 53.8%, 14/26; CART1: 81.0%, 64/79; P = 0.006) and a lower incidence of severe CRS (CART2: 7.7%, 2/26; CART1: 30.4%, 24/79; P = 0.020) compared with CART1, with a median progression-free survival (PFS) and a median overall survival (OS) of 6.2 months and 11.2 months, respectively. In particular, patients who progressed after consolidative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) following CART1 and then received CART2 demonstrated promising outcomes with a response rate of 80.0% (8/10), a median PFS of 7.9 months, and a median OS of 25.1 months. After adjusting for the confounding factors, the response rate (85.7%, 6/7) of CART2 administered to this cohort was better than those who did not bridge to allo-HSCT receiving CART2 (28.6%, 2/7) or non-CART2 treatments (13.3%, 2/15). The median OS after CART2, which was not reached, was significantly better than the median OS after CART2 (3.9 months, P = 0.014) and non-CART2 treatments (6.0 months, P = 0.012) administered in patients who did not undergo consolidative allo-HSCT post-CART1. Our results indicated that, although less effective than CART1, a subset of patients can still benefit from CART2 with mild adverse effects. For patients who relapsed after consolidative allo-HSCT post-CART1, treatment with CART2 is a viable option.

ABSTRACT

Marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) is an indolent type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma that develops through pathological B cell receptor signaling. Orelabrutinib, a new-generation oral small molecule Bruton's tyrosine kinase inhibitor, was evaluated in relapsed/refractory (r/r) MZL patients. Previously treated r/r MZL patients received orelabrutinib 150 mg once daily in a phase 2, multicenter, single-arm study conducted in China. The primary endpoint was overall response rate (ORR) assessed by an Independent Review Committee (IRC) based on the Lugano 2014 classification. Other efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic profiles were evaluated as secondary outcome measures. A total of 111 patients were enrolled, of which 90 patients had MZL confirmed by central pathology review, who were mainly with extra-nodal MZL of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT, 46.7%) and nodal MZL (35.6%). The majority had late-stage disease, with stage IV accounting for 75.6%. After a median follow-up duration of 24.3 months, the IRC-assessed ORR was 58.9% (95% confidence interval [CI], 48.0-69.2), with rates of complete response and partial response being 11.1% and 47.8%, respectively. The IRC-assessed median duration of response was 34.3 months, and the IRC-assessed median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached with a 12-month PFS rate of 82.8% (95% CI, 72.6-89.5). The rate of overall survival at 12 months was 91.0% (95% CI, 82.8-95.4). Common all-grade treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) included anemia (27.9%), neutrophil count decrease (23.4%), white blood cell count decrease (18.0%), platelet count decrease (17.1%), blood present in urine (16.2%), rash (14.4%), and upper respiratory tract infection (10.8%). Thirty-four patients (30.6%) experienced grade 3 or higher TRAEs. Serious TRAEs occurred in 18 patients (16.2%), of which pneumonia (5.4%) was the most common. Seven patients (6.3%) discontinued orelabrutinib due to TRAEs. Orelabrutinib demonstrated high response rates with durable disease remission and was well tolerated in Chinese patients with r/r MZL.

ABSTRACT

Rare but critical bleeding events in primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) present life-threatening complications in patients with ITP, which severely affect their prognosis, quality of life, and treatment decisions. Although several studies have investigated the risk factors related to critical bleeding in ITP, large sample size data, consistent definitions, large-scale multicenter findings, and prediction models for critical bleeding events in patients with ITP are unavailable. For the first time, in this study, we applied the newly proposed critical ITP bleeding criteria by the International Society on Thrombosis and Hemostasis for large sample size data and developed the first machine learning (ML)-based online application for predict critical ITP bleeding. In this research, we developed and externally tested an ML-based model for determining the risk of critical bleeding events in patients with ITP using large multicenter data across China. Retrospective data from 8 medical centers across the country were obtained for model development and prospectively tested in 39 medical centers across the country over a year. This system exhibited good predictive capabilities for training, validation, and test datasets. This convenient web-based tool based on a novel algorithm can rapidly identify the bleeding risk profile of patients with ITP and facilitate clinical decision-making and reduce the occurrence of adversities.

ABSTRACT

The algorithm for cord blood (CB) unit selection is still somewhat ambiguous. We retrospectively analyzed 620 cases of acute leukemia between 2015 and 2020, who were treated with myeloablative single-unit umbilical CB transplantation (UCBT). We found that, when human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch was ≤3/10, CD34+ cell dosage <0.83 × 105/kg-considerably lower than prevalent guidelines-was permissible without affecting survival. Moreover, synergy between donor killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) haplotypes-B and donor-recipient HLA-C mismatch protected against relapse-related mortality. We submit that minimum required CD34+ cell dosage can possibly be relaxed to broaden access to UCBT, and donor KIR genotyping should be considered during unit selection.

ABSTRACT

Patients suffering from severe aplastic anemia (SAA) need frequent blood transfusions during allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, these transfusions can result in an excess of iron in the body tissues, which can negatively impact the success of transplantation. This study aimed to examine the impact of pretransplantation iron overload (IO) on the outcomes of allo-HSCT in patients with SAA. It also investigated whether iron chelation (IC) therapy is necessary to enhance transplantation outcomes in SAA patients by providing guidelines for determining when excess iron should be chelated. The study consisted of 2 parts. In cohort 1, which was retrospective and conducted from April 2012 to December 2018, SAA patients receiving their first allo-HSCT were divided into 2 groups based on their pretransplantation serum ferritin (SF) level: the IO group (SF >1000 ng/mL; n = 17) and the non-IO group (SF ≤1000 ng/mL; n = 48). Cohort 2, a prospective clinical trial conducted from January 2019 to July 2020, included SAA patients diagnosed with IO who were treated with IC therapy using deferasirox at a dose of 10 to 30 mg/kg. Patients were separated into 2 groups based on their pretransplantation SF level: the IC success (ICsuccess) group (SF ≤1000 ng/mL; n = 18) and the IC failure (ICfailure) group (SF >1000 ng/mL; n = 28). All participants were evaluated for the correlation between pretransplantation SF level and transplantation outcomes. A P value <.05 was considered statistically significant. There was no significant difference in the speed of engraftment among the 3 cell lineages or in the incidence of 100-day grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), grade III-IV aGVHD, or 3-year chronic GVHD between the 2 groups in both cohorts. Of note, however, in cohort 1, both 1-year overall survival (OS) (41.2% versus 83.3%; P < .001) and 3-year OS (35.3% versus 83.3%; P < .001) were significantly worse in the IO group. Furthermore, 180-day transplantation related mortality (TRM) (47.1% versus 14.6%; P = .005) and 1-year TRM (52.9% versus 16.7%; P = .002) were significantly higher in the IO group. The IO group was significantly associated with inferior 3-year OS in both univariate and multivariate analyses. In cohort 2, 1-year OS (88.9% versus 42.9%; P = .003) and 3-year OS (83.3% versus 42.9%; P = .007) were significantly better in the ICsuccess group, whereas 180-day TRM (11.1% versus 39.3%; P = .040) and 1-year TRM (11.1% versus 57.1%; P = .003) were significantly lower in the ICsuccess group. These differences were confirmed in both univariate and multivariate analyses. This study involving 2 cohorts shows that pre-HSCT IO has a negative impact on transplantation outcomes in SAA patients. Chelating excess iron with an SF level <1000 ng/mL was found to be necessary and could potentially improve the outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Recent studies have shown that microtransplant (MST) could improve outcome of patients with elderly acute myeloid leukemia (EAML). To further standardize the MST therapy and improve outcomes in EAML patients, based on analysis of the literature on MST, especially MST with EAML from January 1st, 2011 to November 30th, 2022, the International Microtransplant Interest Group provides recommendations and considerations for MST in the treatment of EAML. Four major issues related to MST for treating EAML were addressed: therapeutic principle of MST (1), candidates for MST (2), induction chemotherapy regimens (3), and post-remission therapy based on MST (4). Others included donor screening, infusion of donor cells, laboratory examinations, and complications of treatment.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: On-demand treatment is the most common treatment strategy for haemophilia A in China. AIM: This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a human-derived B-domain-deleted recombinant factor VIII (TQG202) in the on-demand treatment of bleeding episodes in moderate/severe haemophilia A patients. METHODS: This multicentre, single-arm clinical trial enrolled moderate/severe haemophilia patients previously treated with FVIII concentrates for ≥50 exposure days (EDs) from May 2017 to October 2019. TQG202 was injected intravenously on-demand for bleeding episode management. The primary endpoints were the infusion efficiency at 15 and 60 min after the first administration and haemostatic efficacy of the first bleeding episode. Safety was also monitored. RESULTS: Fifty-six participants were enrolled with a median age of 24.5 (range: 12-64) years old. The median total dose of TQG202 was 29,250 IU per participant (range: 1750-2,02,500), and the median number of administrations was 24.5 (2-116). The median infusion efficiency at 15 and 60 min after the first administration was 155.4% and 145.2%, respectively. Among the 48 first bleeding episodes evaluated, 47 (83.9%, 95% CI: 71.7%-92.4%) had a haemostatic efficacy rating of excellent or good. Eleven (19.6%) participants had treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs), but no ≥grade 3 TRAE was observed. Inhibitor development (0.6BU) was observed in one participant (1.8%) after 22 EDs, but was undetectable after 43 EDs. CONCLUSION: TQG202 for on-demand treatment in moderate/severe haemophilia A shows effective control of the bleeding symptoms, with a low incidence of adverse events and inhibitors development.

ABSTRACT

This paper attempts to explore the spatiotemporal variation characteristics of the agricultural carbon offset rate (ACOR) and the reasons that shape its differentiation characteristics in China. To achieve this objective, the Dagum Gini coefficient, kernel density estimation, and geographic detector model are employed in this study. The results show that there are some differences in ACOR among regions in China. Interregional differences are the main source of their overall variation. Excluding the spatial conditions, the ACOR of each province in the sample period shows low mobility characteristics. Considering the spatial conditions, there is convergence in the lower-middle neighborhoods. The three-year lag period did not significantly affect the interaction of ACOR between regions under the accession time horizon. At the aggregate level, the spatial and temporal divergence in China's ACOR is driven by urbanization rate, agricultural fiscal expenditure, and rural education level. As for the regional level, the scale of household farmland operation plays a greater role in determining the spatiotemporal variation of the eastern and central regions' ACOR. While urbanization rate is more determinant for the western region, the interaction between any two factors has significantly higher explanatory power for the spatial and temporal variation of ACOR than the single factor.

ABSTRACT

There has been little consensus on how to quantitatively assess immune reconstitution after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as part of the standard of care. We retrospectively analyzed 11 150 post-transplant immune profiles of 1945 patients who underwent HSCT between 2012 and 2020. 1838 (94.5%) of the cases were allogeneic HSCT. Using the training set of patients (n = 729), we identified a composite immune signature (integrating neutrophil, total lymphocyte, natural killer, total T, CD4+ T, and B cell counts in the peripheral blood) during days 91-180 after allogeneic HSCT that was predictive of early mortality and moreover simplified it into a formula for a Composite Immune Risk Score. When we verified the Composite Immune Risk Score in the validation (n = 284) and test (n = 391) sets of patients, a high score value was found to be associated with hazard ratios (HR) of 3.64 (95% C.I. 1.55-8.51; p = .0014) and 2.44 (95% C.I., 1.22-4.87; p = .0087), respectively, for early mortality. In multivariate analysis, a high Composite Immune Risk Score during days 91-180 remained an independent risk factor for early mortality after allogeneic HSCT (HR, 1.80; 95% C.I., 1.28-2.55; p = .00085). In conclusion, the Composite Immune Risk Score is easy to compute and could identify the high-risk patients of allogeneic HSCT who require targeted effort for prevention and control of infection.

ABSTRACT

Between 2020 and 2021, 31,525 hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCTs) were reported to the Chinese Blood and Marrow Transplantation Registry Group throughout mainland China. In this report, we describe the activity and current trends for HSCT in China during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. In 2020, a total of 13,415 cases of HSCT were reported from 166 transplantation teams, and 75% (10,042 cases) were allogeneic HSCTs. In 2021, a total of 18,110 cases of HSCT were reported from 174 transplantation teams, and 70% (12,744 cases) were allogeneic HSCTs. Haploidentical donor (HID) transplantation accounted for 63% (7977 cases) of allogeneic HSCTs in 2021. The most common indications for allogeneic HSCT for malignant disease were acute myeloid leukemia (37%) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (23%), and the largest proportion of nonmalignant disease comprised aplastic anemia (13%). The peripheral blood stem cell source accounted for 41% of HIDs and 75% of matched sibling donors. The BuCy-based regimen (57%) was the most popular conditioning regimen for allogeneic HSCT, followed by the BuFlu-based regimen (28%) and total body irradiation-based regimen (11%). This survey provides comprehensive information about the current activities and might benefit clinical physicians' decision planning for HSCT.

ABSTRACT

Umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplants (UCBTs) are becoming increasingly common in the treatment of a variety of hematologic and nonhematologic conditions. The T cells from UCB are naïve T cells, which have not yet been exposed to antigens and therefore do not contain T cells with specific immune functions against viruses. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infections occur in more than 80% of patients after UCBT compared to other types of transplantation. Anti-CMV medications are currently restricted, with ganciclovir, foscarnet, and valganciclovir being the most common in China; however, with limited efficacy and considerable side effects, all these drugs are susceptible to viral resistance. In recent years, cytomegalovirus-specific T cells (CMVST) have advanced the treatment of viral infections in immunodeficient patients. CMVST usually uses the same donor as hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. CMVST should be administered to UCBT patients because of the absence of donors after UCBT. In China, there is no report on the use of CMVST to treat CMV infection after UCBT, and foreign reports are also limited. This paper reported a 20-year-old male patient with acute myeloid leukemia who developed cytomegalovirus retinitis (CMVR) after umbilical cord blood transplantation. After ineffective viral treatment, he was treated with a third-party donor CMVST and was successfully transformed into CMV nucleic acid negative.

ABSTRACT

Background: Orelabrutinib is a novel, small molecule, selective irreversible Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of orelabrutinib in patients with relapsed or refractory Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (R/R WM). Methods: This is a prospective, multicenter study of orelabrutinib in patients with WM who had at least one prior line of treatment. Orelabrutinib was administered orally at a daily dose of 150 mg until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. The primary endpoint was major response rate (MRR) assessed by the Independent Review Committee (IRC) according to IWWM-6. This study is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04440059. This trial was also registered on Center for Drug Evaluation (www.chinadrugtrials.org.cn) in March 2019, with a number of CTR2019036. Findings: Between August 2019 and December 2020, 66 R/R WM patients were assessed for eligibility. Forty-seven eligible patients were evaluated for efficacy at a median follow-up of 16.4 months (interquartile range: 12.5, 19.5). As assessed by IRC, the MRR was 80.9%, and the overall response rate was 89.4%. The median time to at least a minor response was 1.9 months. The PFS rates was 89.4% at 12 months. For patients with MYD88L265P /CXCR4NEG, MYD88L265P /CXCR4 S338X, and MYD88NEG /CXCR4NEG mutations, the MRRs were 84.6%, 100%, and 25.0%. Most adverse events were Grades 1 or 2 (91.0%). The common grade 3 or higher adverse events occurring were neutropenia (10.6%), thrombocytopenia (6.4%), and pneumonia (4.3%). Serious adverse events (SAE) occurred in 10 patients (21.3%). One treatment-related death was reported (hepatitis B reactivation). Interpretation: Orelabrutinib has shown good efficacy and manageable safety profiles in patients with R/R WM.
