RESUMEN
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome accompanied by myelodysplasia (MDS-EB) and to compare the prognosis of different subtypes of patients classified by World Health Organization (WHO) 2022. Methods: A total of 282 patients with MDS-EB who underwent allo-HSCT at the Hematology Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from October 2006 to December 2022 were included in the study. The WHO 2022 diagnostic criteria reclassified MDS into three groups: myelodysplastic tumors with type 1/2 of primitive cell proliferation (MDS-IB1/IB2, 222 cases), MDS with fibrosis (MDS-f, 41 cases), and MDS with biallelic TP53 mutation (MDS-biTP53, 19 cases). Their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. Results: â The median age of 282 patients was 46 (15-66) years, with 191 males and 91 females. Among them, 118 (42% ) and 164 (58% ) had MDS-EB1 and MDS-EB2, respectively. â¡Among the 282 patients, 256 (90.8% ) achieved hematopoietic reconstruction after transplantation, with 11 (3.9% ) and 15 (5.3% ) having primary and secondary implantation dysfunctions, respectively. The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) 100 days post-transplantation was (42.6±3.0) %, and the cumulative incidence of grade â ¡-â £ acute GVHD was (33.0±2.8) %. The cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD 1 year post-transplantation was (31.0±2.9) %. Post-transplantation, 128 (45.4% ), 63 (22.3% ), 35 (12.4% ), and 17 patients (6.0% ) developed cytomegalovirus infection, bacteremia, pulmonary fungal infection, and Epstein-Barr virus infection. â¢The median follow-up time post-transplantation was 22.1 (19.2-24.7) months, and the 3-year overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 71.9% (95% CI 65.7% -78.6% ) and 63.6% (95% CI 57.2% -70.7% ), respectively. The 3-year non-recurrent mortality rate (NRM) is 17.9% (95% CI 13.9% -22.9% ), and the 3-year cumulative recurrence rate (CIR) is 9.8% (95% CI 6.7% -13.7% ). The independent risk factors affecting OS post-transplantation include monocyte karyotype (P=0.004, HR=3.26, 95% CI 1.46-7.29), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation complication index (HCI-CI) of ≥3 points (P<0.001, HR=2.86, 95% CI 1.72-4.75), and the occurrence of acute gastrointestinal GVHD of grade â ¡-â £ (P<0.001, HR=5.94, 95% CI 3.50-10.10). â£The 3-year OS and DFS rates in the MDS-IB1/IB2 group post-transplantation were better than those in the MDS-biTP53 group [OS: 72.0% (95% CI 63.4% -80.7% ) vs 46.4% (95% CI 26.9% -80.1% ), P=0.020; DFS: 67.4% (95% CI 60.3% -75.3% ) vs 39.7% (95% CI 22.3% -70.8% ), P=0.015]. The 3-year CIR was lower than that of the MDS-biTP53 group [7.3% (95% CI 4.3% -11.4% ) vs 26.9% (95% CI 9.2% -48.5% ), P=0.004]. The NRM at 3 years post-transplantation in the MDS-IB1/IB2, MDS-f, and MDS-biTP53 groups were 16.7% (95% CI 12.1% -22.1% ), 20.5% (95% CI 9.4% -34.6% ), and 26.3% (95% CI 9.1% -47.5% ), respectively (P=0.690) . Conclusion: Allo-HSCT is an effective treatment for MDS-EB, with monomeric karyotype, HCI-CI, and grade â ¡-â £ acute gastrointestinal GVHD as independent risk factors affecting the patient's OS. The WHO 2022 classification helps distinguish the efficacy of allo-HSCT in different subgroups of patients. Allo-HSCT can improve the poor prognosis of patients with MDS-f, but those with MDS-biTP53 have a higher risk of recurrence post-transplantation.

Twelve DEK-NUP214 fusion gene-positive patients with acute myeloid leukemia and on allo-HSCT treatment at the Hematology Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2016 to August 2022 were included in the study, and their clinical data were retrospectively analyzed. The patients comprised five men and seven women with a median age of 34 (16-52) years. At the time of diagnosis, all the patients were positive for the DEK-NUP214 fusion gene. Chromosome karyotyping analysis showed t (6;9) (p23;q34) translocation in 10 patients (two patients did not undergo chromosome karyotyping analysis), FLT3-ITD mutation was detected in 11 patients, and high expression of WT1 was observed in 11 patients. Nine patients had their primary disease in the first complete remission state before transplantation, one patient had no disease remission, and two patients were in a recurrent state. All patients received myeloablative pretreatment, five patients received sibling allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and seven patients received haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The median number of mononuclear cells in the transplant was 10.87 (7.09-17.89) ×10(8)/kg, and the number of CD34(+) cells was 3.29 (2.53-6.10) ×10(6)/kg. All patients achieved blood reconstruction, with a median time of 14 (10-20) days for neutrophil implantation and 15 (9-27) days for platelet implantation. The 1 year transplant-related mortality rate after transplantation was 21.2%. The cumulative recurrence rates 1 and 3 years after transplantation were 25.0% and 50.0%, respectively. The leukemia free survival rates were (65.6±14.0) % and (65.6±14.0) %, respectively. The overall survival rates were (72.2±13.8) % and (72.2±13.8) %, respectively.

Objective: To evaluate the safety of early enteral nutrition (EEN) support in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas. Methods: This was a retrospective cohort study. We collected relevant clinical data of 204 patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas who had been managed in the No. 1 Department of General Surgery, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University between 1 January 2017 and 1 January 2020. The patients were allocated to EEN or delayed enteral nutrition (DEN) groups depending on whether enteral nutrition had been instituted within 48 hours of admission to the intensive care unit. The primary outcome was 180-day mortality. Other outcomes included rates of intraperitoneal hemorrhage, septic shock, open abdominal cavity, bloodstream infection, mechanical ventilation, and continuous renal replacement therapy. Risk factors for mortality were analyzed by logistic regression. Results: There were no significant differences in hematological data or other baseline characteristics between the two groups at the time of admission to the intensive care unit (all P>0.05). However, septic shock (31.2% [15/48] vs. 15.4% [24/156], χ2=4.99, P=0.025), continuous renal replacement therapy (27.1% [13/48] versus 9.0% [14/156], χ2=8.96, P=0.003), and 180-day mortality (31.2% [15/48] vs. 7.7% [12/156], χ2=15.75, P<0.001) were significantly more frequent in the EEN than the DEN group (all P<0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that older age (OR=1.082, 95%CI:1.027-1.139,P=0.003), worse Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation (APACHE) II scores (OR=1.189, 95%CI: 1.037-1.363, P=0.013), higher C-reactive protein (OR=1.013, 95%CI:1.004-1.023, P=0.007) and EEN (OR=8.844, 95%CI:1.809- 43.240, P=0.007) were independent risk factors for death in patients with severe intra-abdominal infection and intestinal fistulas. Conclusion: EEN may lead to adverse events and increase mortality in patients with both enterocutaneous fistulas and severe abdominal infection. EEN should be implemented with caution in such patients.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in young patients with high-risk multiple myeloma (HRMM) and analyzed the factors affecting patient prognosis. Methods: In this retrospective study, we analyzed the clinical data of 14 patients with HRMM with cytogenetic abnormalities or high-risk biological factors who underwent allo-HSCT at the Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Center of the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital between November 2016 and November 2022. Results: There were seven males and seven females included in the study, with a median age of 39.5 (31-50) years at the time of allo-HSCT. The median number of treatment lines before transplantation was 2 (1-6) . Before allo-HSCT, 42.9% (6/14) of the patients did not achieve complete remission, while 35.7% (5/14) of the patients achieved measurable residual disease positivity. After transplantation, all patients were evaluated for their treatment response, and the overall response rate was 100% (14/14) . All 14 patients successfully underwent allo-HSCT, with median engraftment times for neutrophils and platelets of 11 (10-14) days and 13 (9-103) days, respectively. Acute grade â ¡-â £ graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) occurred in five patients (35.7%) , and two patients (14.3%) developed moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD. The median follow-up time after allo-HSCT was 18.93 (4.10-72.53) months, with an expected 2-year transplant-related mortality rate of 7.1% (95% CI 0%-21.1%) and an expected 2-year overall survival rate of 92.9% (95% CI 80.3%-100.0%) . Moreover, the expected 1-year and 2-year progression-free survival rates were 92.9% (95% CI 80.3%-100.0%) and 66.0% (95% CI 39.4%-100.0%) , respectively, and the 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse was 28.9% (95% CI 0%-56.7%) . Upfront allo-HSCT following complete remission after induced therapy and the presence of chronic GVHD might be favorable prognostic factors. Conclusion: allo-HSCT is an effective treatment for improving the prognosis of young patients with HRMM.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for the treatment of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) patients. Methods: A total of 14 cases of PMF who underwent allo-HSCT from December 2008 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 8 males and 6 females with a median age [M(Q1, Q3)]of 36 (24, 42) years. Three-year overall survival (OS), disease free survival (DFS), cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR), transplantation-related mortality (TRM) were analyzed. Meanwhile, the complications were followed up by telephone and outpatient appointments for 49.6 (9.0,93.1) months. Results: All patients received myeloablative conditioning regimens (MAC). All patients had successful engraftment, and the median time of neutrophils and platelet engraftment were 13.5 (11.8, 18.0) days and 19.5 (13.5, 24.5) days, respectively. â ¡-â £ acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) occurred in 3 cases, while chronic GVHD in 8 cases. The rate of 3-year OS,DFS,CIR and TRM were (92.9±6.9)%, (76.0±12.2)%, (38.6±2.7)% and (7.1±0.5)% respectively after a median follow-up time of 1 489.0 (270.3,2 794.8) days. Two patients died from treatment-related complications, one of which died 39 days after transplantation due to heart failure caused by severe anemia, the other patient died 6 years after relapse due to pulmonary infection. Conclusion: Allo-HSCT can be used as a safe and effective approach to treat PMF.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for hepatitis-related aplastic anemia (HRAA) patients. Methods: Retrospective analysis was performed on hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia patients who received haplo-HSCT at our center between January 2012 and June 2022. October 30, 2022 was the final date of follow-up. Results: This study included 28 HRAA patients receiving allo-HSCT, including 18 males (64.3% ) and 10 females (35.7% ), with a median age of 25.5 (9-44) years. About 17 cases of severe aplastic anemia (SAA), 10 cases of very severe aplastic anemia (VSAA), and 1 case of transfusion-dependent aplastic anemia (TD-NSAA) were identified. Among 28 patients, 15 patients received haplo-HSCT, and 13 received MSD-HSCT. The 2-year overall survival (OS) rate, the 2-year failure-free survival (FFS) rate, the 2-year transplant-related mortality (TRM) rate, the 100-day grade â ¡-â £ acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) cumulative incidence rate, and the 2-year chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) cumulative incidence rate were 81.4%, 81.4% (95% CI 10.5% -20.6% ), 14.6% (95% CI 5.7% -34.3% ), 25.0% (95% CI 12.8% -45.4% ), and 4.2% (95% CI 0.6% -25.4% ), respectively. After transplantation, all patients had no significant liver function damage. Compared with the MSD-HSCT group, only the incidence of cytomegaloviremia was significantly higher in the haplo-HSCT group [60.0% (95% CI 35.2% -84.8% ) vs 7.7% (95% CI 0-22.2% ), P=0.004]. No statistically significant difference in the Epstein-Barr virus was found in the 2-year OS, 2-year FFS, 2-year TRM, and 100-day grade â ¡-â £ aGVHD cumulative incidence rates and 2-year cGVHD cumulative incidence rate. Conclusion: Allo-HSCT is safe and effective for HRAA, and haplo-HSCT can be used as a safe and effective alternative for newly diagnosed HRAA patients who cannot obtain HLA-matched sibling donors.

Objective: To investigate the early effect and safety of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) with a 10-day decitabine-containing conditioning regimen in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) /myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) . Methods: From April 2021 to May 2022, 31 AML/MDS patients who received allo-HSCT with a 10-day decitabine-containing conditioning regimen were analyzed. Results: AML (n=10), MDS-AML (n=6), CMML-AML (n=1), and MDS (n=14) were identified in 31 patients, 16 males, and 15 females, with a median age of 41 (20-55) yr. Neutrophils and platelets were successfully implanted in 31 patients (100%), with a median implantation duration of 12 (9-30) and 14 (9-42) days, respectively. During the preconditioning period, 16 patients (51.6%) developed oral mucositis, with 15 cases of â /â ¡ grade (48.4%) and one case of â ¢ grade (3.2%). After transplantation, 13 patients (41.9%) developed CMV viremia, six patients (19.4%) developed hemorrhagic cystitis, and four patients (12.9%) developed a local infection. The median time of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) following transplantation was 33 (12-111) days. The cumulative incidence of aGVHD and â ¢/â £ grade aGVHD was 41.9% (95% CI 26.9%-61.0%) and 22.9% (95% CI 13.5%-47.5%), respectively. There was no severe cGVHD, and mild and moderate chronic GVHD (cGVHD) incidence was 23.5% (95% CI 12.1%-43.6%). As of November 30, 2022, only one of the 31 patients had relapsed, with a 1-yr cumulative relapse rate (CIR) of 3.2% (95% CI 0.5%-20.7%). There was only one relapse patient death and no non-relapse deaths. The 1-yr overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) rates were 92.9% (95% CI 80.3%-100%) and 96.8% (95% CI 90.8%-100%), respectively. Conclusions: A 10-day decitabine-containing conditioning regimen for allo-HSCT reduced relapse and was safe and feasible in treating AML/MDS.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of haploidentical donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of severe aplastic anemia. Methods: The clinical data of 76 patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA) patients who underwent haplo-HSCT from December 2014 to October 2020 were selectively analyzed. There were 50 males and 26 females with a median age of 16 (3-52) years old. There were 49 SAA-â patients, 18 SAA-â ¡ patients, and 9 patients with hepatitis-associated aplastic anemia. There were 15 cases of bone marrow put together with peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and 61 cases of peripheral blood stem-cell transplantation. Conditioning regimens were Cyclophosphamide (CY) + Fludarabine (Flu) + ATG for 46 patients and Busulfan (Bu) + CY+Flu+ATG for 30 patients. Results: Three patients died during the myelosuppressive phase following transplantation, and 73 patients had a median time of neutrophil engraftment of 12 (9-21) days; in addition to 3 patients who died early, 8 patients did not obtain platelet reconstruction after transplantation, and 65 patients had platelet engraftment with a medium time of 14 (9-90) d. The incidence of primary graft failure was 10.9% and the incidence of secondary graft failure was 5.5%. The incidence of â ¡-â £ acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was 38.4%, the incidence of â ¢-â £ aGVHD was 16.4%, the incidence of chronic graft anti-host disease (cGVHD) was 35.8%, and the incidence of extensive cGVHD was 22.4%. The medium follow-up time was 19.5 (1-75) months, the prospective overall survival (OS) for 2 years was (78.6±5.0) %, the failure-free survival (FFS) was (75.9±5.1) %, and the transplant-related mortality was (20.2±4.9) %. Multi-factor analysis revealed that the patient older than 35 years old, â ¢/â £ aGVHD, HCT-CI≥3, the pre-transplant ferritin ≥1 500 µg/L, the number of neutrophils >1×10(9)/L at the time of onset were risk factors affecting OS (P=0.008, 0.008, 0.014, 0.004, 0.027) . Patients with graft failure had lower OS and FFS than other patients (P<0.001) . Conclusion: Haplo-HSCT is an effective method for treating SAA in children, adolescents, and young patients, and the occurrence of severe aGVHD and severe infection, as well as graft failure, are the main causes of survival rate. The prevention and treatment of severe aGVHD and infection are essential to improve efficacy.

Objective: TP53-abnormal MDS/acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients' allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) treatment's effectiveness and influencing factors should be studied. Methods: 42 patients with TP53 gene status change MDS/AML who underwent allo-HSCT from 2014.8.1 to 2021.7.31 at the Hematology Hospital of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were the subject of a retrospective analysis. The 42 patients were divided into three groups: the TP53 deletion group (group A) , TP53 mono-alle mutation group (group B) , and TP53 multi-hit group (group C) . The differences in clinical features and prognostic factors after transplantation were analyzed. Results: There were 42 MDS/AML patients, including 21 patients with MDS, and 21 patients with AML. The median follow-up period was 34.0 (7.5-75.0) months and the median patient age at the time of transplantation was 41.5 (18-63) years old. The total OS was 66.3% (95% CI 53.4%-82.4%) in 3 years after transplantation, and EFS was 61.0% (95% CI 47.7%-78.0%) in 3 years. For 3 years after receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, there were no statistically significant differences in 3-year OS and EFS in groups A, B, and C (P≥0.05) . The 3 years OS was 82.5% (95% CI 63.1%-100.0%) in group A, 60.6% (95% CI 43.5%-84.4%) in group B, and 57.1% (95% CI 30.1%-100.0%) in group C. Univariate analysis revealed that the number of co-mutant genes, pre-HSCT treatment, and disease type did not affect prognosis, while age, karyotype, co-mutation, positive blast cell before transplantation, and positive blast cell after transplantation were common prognostic factors for OS and EFS (P<0.1) . MRD levels before transplantation were found to be independent risk factors for OS (P=0.037, HR=33.40, 95% CI 1.24-901.17) in a multivariate analysis. Conclusion: Patients with MDS/AML who have TP53 mutations can benefit from allo-HSCT, but patients with complex karyotypes have a worse prognosis. Meanwhile, the final flow cytometry (FCM) monitoring blast cell test before HSCT has a certain guiding significance for prognostic assessment.

Objective: To summarize the original CT features of Pneumocystis Jirovecii pneumonia in patients with hematological diseases. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out in 46 patients with proven pneumocystis pneumonia (PJP) in the Hospital of Hematology, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences between January 2014 and December 2021. All patients had multiple chests CT and related laboratory examinations, imaging typing were conducted based on the initial CT presentation, and the distinct imaging types were analyzed against the clinical data. Results: In the analysis, there were 46 patients with proven pathogenesis, 33 males, and 13 females, with a median age of 37.5 (2-65) years. The diagnosis was validated by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) hexamine silver staining in 11 patients and clinically diagnosed in 35 cases. Of the 35 clinically diagnosed patients, 16 were diagnosed by alveolar lavage fluid macrogenomic sequencing (BALF-mNGS) and 19 by peripheral blood macrogenomic sequencing (PB-mNGS) . The initial chest CT presentation was categorized into 4 types, including ground glass (GGO) type in 25 cases (56.5%) , nodular type in 10 cases (21.7%) , fibrosis type in 4 cases (8.7%) , and mixed type in 5 cases (13.0%) . There was no substantial discrepancy in CT types among confirmed patients, BALF-mNGS diagnosed patients and PB-mNGS diagnosed patients (χ(2)=11.039, P=0.087) . The CT manifestations of confirmed patients and PB-mNGS diagnosed patients were primarily GGO type (67.6%, 73.7%) , while that of BALF-mNGS diagnosed patients were nodular type (37.5%) . Of the 46 patients, 63.0% (29/46) had lymphocytopenia in the peripheral blood, 25.6% (10/39) with positive serum G test, and 77.1% (27/35) with elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) . There were no great discrepancies in the rates of lymphopenia in peripheral blood, positive G-test, and increased LDH among different CT types (all P>0.05) . Conclusion: The initial chest CT findings of PJP in patients with hematological diseases were relatively prevalent with multiple GGO in both lungs. Nodular and fibrosis types were also the initial imaging findings for PJP.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and prognosis of basiliximab in the treatment of steroid-refractory or steroid-dependent acute graft-versus-host disease (SR/SD-aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: Clinical data of 87 patients with SR/SD-aGVHD in the skin, intestine, and liver after allo-HSCT at the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital Transplantation Center from January 2015 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The administration plan of basiliximab was as follows: 20 mg for adults and children weighing ≥35 kg and 10 mg for children weighing<35 kg. The drug was administered once on the 1st, 4th, and 8th days, respectively, and then once weekly. The efficacy was evaluated on the 7th, 14th, 21st, and 28th days after basiliximab treatment. Results: â There were 51 males (58.6%) and 36 females (41.4%) , with a median (range) age of 34 (4-63) years. There were 54 cases of classic aGVHD, 33 of late aGVHD, 49 of steroid-refractory aGVHD, and 38 of steroid-dependent aGVHD. â¡Thirty-five patients (40.2%) achieved complete remission (CR) , 23 (26.4%) achieved partial remission (PR) , and 29 had no remission (NR) . The total effective rate[overall response rate (ORR) ] was 66.7% (58/87) . â¢The ORR of the classic and late aGVHD groups was 77.8% (42/54) and 48.5% (16/33) , respectively. â£The median (range) follow-up time was 154 (4-1813) days, the 6-month overall survival (OS) rate of the 87 patients was 44.8% (95% CI 39.5%-50.1%) and the 1-year OS was 39.4% (95%CI 34.2%-44.3%) . â¤After treatment with basiliximab, the 6-month OS in the CR (35 cases) , PR (23 cases) , and NR (29 cases) groups was 80.0% (95%CI 73.2%-86.8%) , 39.1% (95%CI 28.9%-49.3%) , and 6.9% (95%CI 2.2%-11.6%) , respectively (χ(2)=34.679, P<0.001) , and the 1-year OS was 74.3% (95%CI 66.9%-81.7%) , 30.4% (95%CI 20.8%-40.0%) , and 3.4% (95%CI 0%-6.8%) , respectively (χ(2)=43.339, P<0.001) . The OS of the classic and late aGVHD groups was 57.4% (95%CI 50.7%-64.1%) and 24.2% (95%CI 16.7%-31.7%) , respectively (χ(2)=9.109, P=0.004) , and the 1-year OS was 51.9% (95%CI 45.1%-58.7%) and 18.2% (95%CI 11.5%-24.9%) , respectively (χ(2)=9.753, P=0.003) . â¥Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that late aGVHD (OR=3.121, 95%CI 1.770-5.503, P<0.001) , Minnesota score high-risk group before medication (OR=3.591, 95%CI 1.931-6.679, P<0.001) , active infection before medication (OR=1.881, 95%CI 1.029-3.438, P=0.040) , and impairment of important organ function caused by non-GVHD (OR=3.100, 95%CI 1.570-6.121, P=0.001) were independent risk factors affecting the efficacy of basiliximab. Conclusion: Basiliximab has good efficacy and safety for SR/SD-aGVHD, but not in patients with late aGVHD, high-risk group of Minnesota score, and infection or impaired function of important organs.

Objegtive: To investigate the efficacy and safety of preemptive/salvage therapy with venetoclax (VEN) in patients with recurrence after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: Retrospective analysis the clinical data of 25 patients with minimal residual disease (MRD) positive or morphological recurrence after allo-HSCT treated with VEN in the hematological Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from 2021.2 to 2021.11, there were 15 MRD positive patients (preemptive treatment group) and 10 morphological recurrence patients (salvage treatment group) . The dose of VEN in both groups was 400 mg/d, which was reduced to 100 mg/d when combined with azole antifungal drugs. Results: â In the preemptive group, there were 7 males and 8 females, with a median age of 32 (18-52) years; There were 13 cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) , 1 case of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and 1 case of primary myelofibrosis (PMF) ; the median time from MRD positive to the application of VEN was 2.5 (0-12.5) months. The median course of treatment was 2 (1-4) . On the 7th day of the first course of treatment, the median concentration of VEN was 1945 (688-5383) µg/L. After one course of VEN treatment, MRD in 8 patients turned negative (major responses) , MRD in 4 patients decreased by 50% compared with that before treatment, 3 cases were ineffective, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 80% (12/15) . On the 7th day of treatment, 3 of the 9 patients with VEN blood concentration <1 000 µg/L or >3 000 µg/L turned negative for MRD (33.3%) , and 5 of the 6 patients with VEN blood concentration between 1000 and 3000 µg/L turned negative for MRD (83.3%) . Grade 3/4 neutropenia occurred in 5 patients (33%) and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia occurred in 5 patients (33%) , there were no new cases of severe infection and death. â¡In the salvage group, there were 7 males and 3 females, with a median age of 44 (28-59) years; there were 6 cases of AML, 2 cases of ALL, 1 case of atypical chronic myeloid leukemia (aCML) , 1 case of refractory hemopenia with multiline dysplasia (MDS-RCMD) ; the median time from relapse to application of VEN was 0 (0-1) months. The median treatment was 1 (1-2) course. The median concentration of VEN on the 7th day of the first course of treatment was 2 419 (1 200-6 155) µg/L. After one course of VEN treatment, 3 cases achieved complete remission (CR) (major responses) and 3 cases achieved partial remission (PR) , 4 cases were ineffective and the ORR was 60% (6/10) . On the 7th day of treatment, 1 of the 4 patients with VEN blood concentration >3 000 µg/L achieved CR (25%) , and 2 of the 6 patients with VEN blood concentration between 1 000 and 3 000 µg/L achieved CR (33.3%) . Grade 3/4 neutropenia and grade 3/4 thrombocytopenia occurred in 10 patients (100%) . One patient died of severe pulmonary infection. â¢The median follow-up was 4.5 (1-8.5) months. The overall survival rate (OS) of the preemptive group and the salvage group were (70.2±12.7) % and (50.0± 15.8) %, respectively (χ(2)=1.873, P=0.171) . The OS of patients with and without primary response to one course of VEN were (90.9±8.7) % and (36.2±14.7) % respectively (χ(2)=6.843, P=0.009) . Three patients with TP53 mutation achieved the major responses after VEN treatment. Conclusion: Preemptive/salvage therapy with VEN after allo-HSCT in patients with hematological malignancies is effective and well tolerated, monitoring the concentration of VEN is expected to improve the curative effect. The prognosis of patients who fail to reach the major responses after one course of preemptive/salvage treatment with VEN is poor, so they need to switch to other treatment schemes as soon as possible.

Objective: To evaluate the outcomes and prognostic factors of adults with acute myeloid leukemia with myelodysplastic-related changes (AML-MRC) who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . The genetic mutation lineage of patients with AML-MRC and the molecular mutation affecting the transplantation prognosis was discussed. Methods: The clinical data of 75 patients with AML-MRC who underwent allo-HACT from 2006 to 2020 were retrospectively analyzed for clinical characteristics, survival, relapse-related indicators, and risk factors affecting transplantation prognosis. Additionally, the clinical characteristics and prognosis of multilineage dysplasia (M) group, history of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or myelodysplastic syndrome/myelodysplastic proliferative tumor (MDS/MPN) (H) group, and MDS related cytogenetic abnormalities (C) group were compared. The bone marrow of 43 patients underwent targeting second-generation sequencing (137 genes) . Results: â There were 41 males and 34 females with a median age of 41 (18-56) years, a median follow-up time of 35 (95%CI 30-49) months, and a median survival time (OS) of 78 (95%CI 23-) months. Three-year OS and event-free survival (EFS) were 57.1% (95%CI 45.6%-71.4%) and 52.0% (95%CI 40.8%-66.1%) . Also, the three-year cumulative recurrence rate (CIR) and transplant-related mortality rate (TRM) were 26.8% (95%CI 16.6%-30.0%) and 22.7% (95%CI 13.2%-33.8%) , respectively. Furthermore, multivariate analysis revealed that pre-transplant non-CR1 status was an independent risk factor for OS and EFS. Other independent risk factors for OS included abnormal karyotype of -5/5q- chromosome and the absence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after transplantation. â¡Among the 75 patients, 59 (78.7%) were in group H, 20 had received demethylation drugs before turning to AML and nine cases (12.0%) in group C and seven cases (9.3%) in group M. There was no significant difference in the three-year OS and EFS among the three groups[group M vs H vs C: OS: 71.4% (95%CI 44.7%-100.0%) vs 55.0% (95%CI 41.8%-72.5%) vs 55.6% (95%CI 31.0%-99.7%) , P=0.700; EFS: 71.4% (95%CI 44.7%-100.0%) vs 46.5% (95%CI 34.0%-63.8%) vs 55.6% (95%CI 31.0%-99.7%) , P=0.600]. Compared with primary and secondary AML-MRC, there was no statistically significant difference in the three-year OS and EFS[61.9% (95%CI 41.9%-91.4%) vs 55.0% (95%CI 41.8%-72.5%) , P=0.600; 61.9% (95%CI 41.9%-91.4%) vs 46.5% (95%CI 34.0%-63.8%) , P=0.400]. Furthermore, there was no significant difference in the time to AML between patients who received demethylation treatment before (20 cases) and those who did not (39 cases) [195 (16-937) d vs 162 (9-3167) d, P=0.804]. Moreover, there were no statistically significant differences in the three-year OS and EFS between the two groups (P=0.400, P=0.700) . ⢠NGS test was performed on bone marrow samples of 43 patients (57.3%) , and 73 mutation types were found. Additionally, U2AF1 had the highest mutation incidence (11 cases, 25.6%) , and more than 10% were found: RUNX1 (ten cases, 23.3%) , NRAS (ten cases, 23.3%) , ASXL1 (six cases, 14.0%) , PTPN11 (five cases, 11.6%) , TET2 (five cases, 11.6%) . Univariate analysis showed U2AF1[P=0.875, HR=1.110 (95%CI 0.295-4.195) ], RUNX1[P=0.685, HR=0.728 (95%CI 0.157-3.375) ], NRAS[P=0.919, HR=0.923 (95%CI 0.196-4.334) ] mutation did not affect OS. Conclusion: Chromosome abnormality of -5/5q-, cGVHD, and non-CR1 status before transplantation were independent risk factors for OS in patients with allo-HSCT and AML-MRC. Additionally, the MHC subgroup classification was not a factor affecting the prognosis of transplantation. Treatment with demethylated drugs may not delay MDS turning to AML and prolong the OS after transplantation.

Objective: To investigates the relationship between CYP3A5 gene polymorphism, tacrolimus concentration, and acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: A retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 35 Chinese adult patients who received allo-HSCT from July 2019 to February 2020 was conducted. Also, bone marrow samples were collected before transplantation for CYP3A5 genotyping, and intravenous infusion of tacrolimus and a short course of methotrexate (MTX) ± mycophenolate were used to prevent GVHD. The initial concentration was monitored on the second or third day of tacrolimus administration, followed by 2-3 times a week. The drug dose was adjusted according to the target blood concentration (10-15 ng/ml) . Results: In 16 allo-HSCT patients with CYP3A5 *3/*3 gene, the initial concentration of tacrolimus (9.82 ng/ml vs 8.53 ng/ml) , the initial concentration/dose (C/D) ratio (5.72 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1) vs 4.26 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1)) , and the median C/D ratio in the first two weeks after HSCT (5.29 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1) vs 4.61 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1), 5.65 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1) vs 4.56 ng·ml(-1)·mg(-1)) were significantly higher than in 19 patients with at least one CYP3A5 * 1 allele (P=0.028, 0.001, 0.037, 0.045) . The incidence of â ¢-â £ aGVHD in patients with CYP3A5*1 alleles was higher than in patients with CYP3A5*3/*3 gene[ (26.3±10.1) %vs (6.2±6.1) %, P=0.187]. Conclusion: CYP3A5 genotype-directed administration may help achieve the target blood concentration of tacrolimus after HSCT more quickly, reduce the incidence of severe aGVHD, and improve the efficacy of transplantation.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of syngeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of aplastic anemia. Methods: The clinic data of 11 patients with aplastic anemia undergoing syngeneic HSCT were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Among all of the 11 patients with AA, 4 males and 7 females were determined, with a median age of 22 (7-44) years old. All of the 11 patients achieved engraftment after the first transplantation: neutrophils engraftment occurred after a median of 10 days (range 8-23) , and platelet engraftment occurred after a median of 11 days (range 8-28) . Eight patients achieved long-term stable engraftment: three patients had graft failure, and two of them underwent secondary transplantation (1 case achieved long-term stable engraftment, but graft failure occurred again after hematopoietic reconstruction in another case) . The median follow-up time was 53 (5-135) months. All of the 11 patients survived, and the blood routine of 9 patients was normal for a long time. Conclusion: Syngeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has a good long-term survival rate in the treatment of aplastic anemia, and graft failure is still the most significant problem.

Objective: To investigate the long term efficacy and side effects of a donor-derived CD19 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell (HI19α-4-1BB-ζ CAR-T) therapy in the treatment of patients with relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) . Methods: A total of 9 subjects with relapsed B-ALL post allo-HSCT received donor-derived CD19 CAR-T therapy from July 2017 to May 2020. All subjects were infused with donor CD3-positive T cells after lymphodepletion chemotherapy, and a median dose of CAR-T cells was 1.79 (range, 0.86-3.53) ×10(6)/kg. Results: â All subjects achieved complete remission and MRD-negative at 28-42 d post CAR-T cells infusion. â¡Cytokine releasing syndrome (CRS) occurrd in all subjects and was grade 3 in 2, grade 2 in 4, grade 1 in 3 cases respectively. Four subjects developed immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) , which was grade 2 in 1, grade 1 in 3. One subject developed grade IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) , and side effects were all controllable. â¢Four subjects relapsed at a median period of 8.6 (4.6-19.3) months, 2 subjects died of disease progression after receiving chemotherapy and another one also died of disease progression 14 months after a second transplant, only 1 subject achieved complete remission after CD22 CAR-T cell therapy. Until last follow-up date, 6 subjects were leukemia-free and achieved complete donor chimerism. The estimated 1-year and 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) rate was 63.5% and 50.8%, with a median LFS of 18.1 months. â£After a median follow-up of 25.1 (range, 6.9-36.7) months, the estimated 2-year and 2.5-year OS rate were 87.5% and 52.5%, respectively. Conclusion: The donor-derived CD19 CAR-T cell therapy obtain a high remission rate in relapsed B-ALL patients post allo-HSCT with tolerable side effects, half subjects survived more than 2 years without disease recurrence, though long-term efficacy requires further observation.

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with t (8;21) acute myeloid leukemia (AML) . Methods: The clinical features of patients with t (8;21) AML who received allo-HSCT between January 2008 and October 2020 in the Hospital of Blood Disease and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed on the factors that might influence relapse. Results: A total of 73 patients were enrolled. The analysis revealed that, out of the 73 cases, 10 had relapses, with a 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) of 15.7% (95% CI 7.3%-26.8%) . The median time of relapse was 9.2 (2.0-47.6) months. Furthermore, 19 cases died, with a 3-year overall survival (OS) of 68.9% (95% CI 56.4%-81.4%) . Compared with the RUNX1-RUNX1T1 at first diagnosis, a ≥ 3-log reduction within 3 months and/or 4-log reduction within 3-12 months can significantly decrease 3-year CIR after HSCT (13.3% vs 57.1%; 5.1% vs 25.0%, both P<0.001) . Cox multivariate analysis showed that high levels of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 (≥1.58%) on the day of transplantation (day 0) [P=0.006; HR=28.849 (95% CI 2.68-310.524) ] and the flow cytometric analysis of blasts ratio in bone marrow ≥60% at first diagnosis [P=0.015; HR=6.64 (95% CI 1.448-30.457) ] were independent risk factors for relapse. Furthermore, no significant difference in the effect of c-Kit and Flt3 gene mutations on relapse after transplantation was observed (P=0.877 and P=0.773, resp) . The flow cytometric analysis of blasts ratio in bone marrow ≥60% at first diagnosis [P<0.001; HR=8.925 (95% CI 2.702-29.476) ] and the number of courses to achieve complete remission ≥ 2[P=0.013; HR=4.495 (95% CI 1.379-14.649) ] were independent risk factors for OS. Conclusion: Both high levels of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 (≥1.58%) on the day of transplantation (day 0) and the ratio of flow cytometric analysis of blasts in bone marrow at first diagnosis increase the chance of t (8;21) AML relapse after allo-HSCT. Detection of the transcription levels of RUNX1-RUNX1T1 after allo-HSCT at different times could help predict the hazard of relapse.

Sinopodophyllum hexandrum is an alpine medicinal plant that produces the anticancer compound podophyllotoxin (PPT). Although a positive relationship between PPT content and altitude has been proved and low temperature enhances plant growth and PPT accumulation has also been revealed, the role of UV radiation in regulating growth and PPT accumulation is still unclear In this study, morphophysiological traits, metabolites content and related genes expression were investigated by exposing S. hexandrum seedlings to treatment with UV-B radiation. The results showed that the contents of soluble sugars and flavonoids, and the expression levels of genes involved in glycometabolism (XET and ß-1,3-glucanase) and flavonoid biosynthesis (PAL,C4H,4CL,CHS1 and DTX41) were enhanced in response to UV-B compared to CK. Moreover, genes involved in stress tolerance (MYB, WRKY,APX3 and EX2) were also upregulated in response to UV-B radiation. Although the whole plant biomass exhibited slightly increased values that depended largely on root development, the contents of chlorophyll and PPT and the expression levels of genes involved in photosynthesis (matK, ndhF,rbcL and ycf5) and PPT biosynthesis (C3H,CCoAMT,CCR,CAD, DPO, PLR,SDH, CPY719A23,OMT3,CYP71CU1,OMT1and 2-ODD) were significantly decreased in response to UV-B compared to CK. It can be concluded that UV-B radiation promotes soluble sugars and flavonoids accumulation, but inhibits PPT biosynthesis in S. hexandrum.

Objective: To explore the clinical characteristics, related factors, and prognostic effect of patients with T cell large granular lymphocytosis following allo-HSCT. Methods: Consecutive patients with T-LGL following allo-HSCT who visited our center from June 2013 to February 2020 were studied retrospectively. We compared patients undergoing allo-HSCT during this period. The clinical characteristics, related factors, cumulative incidence of patients with T-LGL and rates of overall survival (OS) , disease free survival (DFS) , relapse, and non-relapse mortality (NRM) were analyzed. Results: Total 359 patients were enrolled, including 17 with T-LGL and 342 without T-LGL following allo-HSCT. The median follow-up duration was 38 (3-92) month. The cumulative incidence at 1-, 2- and 3-years of T-LGL was 3.64% (95%CI 1.09%-6.19%) , 4.50% (95%CI 1.36%-7.64%) , and 4.84% (95%CI 1.10%-8.76%) , respectively. CMV reactivation (P=0.013) , EB viremia (P=0.034) , and aGVHD (P=0.027) were associated with the development of T-LGL following allo-HSCT. Multivariate analysis showed that benign hematologic diseases[P=0.027, OR=3.36 (95%CI 1.15-9.89) ] and haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation[P=0.030, OR=4.67 (95%CI 1.16-18.75) ], unrelated donor transplantation[P=0.041, OR=5.49 (95%CI 1.10-28.16) ] were independent predictive factors of T-LGL following allo-HSCT. There was a significant difference in the 3-year OS (100.0% vs. 78.6%, P=0.04) , DFS (100.0% vs. 70.0%, P=0.01) , and NRM (0 vs. 12.6%, P=0.02) between the 2 cohorts. Subgroup analysis showed that malignant diseases recipients who developed T-LGL had better outcomes after allo-HSCT, and there was a significant difference in the NRM (P=0.042) , DFS (P=0.013) , and cumulative relapse rate (P=0.028) between the 2 cohorts. In contrast, the appearance of T-LGL after allo-HSCT in patients with benign diseases had no significant effect on the prognosis. Conclusions: T-LGL was a durable and clinically benign phenomenon occurring in allo-HSCT recipients with malignant diseases. Factors associated with immune reconstitution and T-cell regulatory mechanisms might be major predictors of T-LGL following allo-HSCT.

Objective: To investigate the distribution of pathogens and the antibiotic resistance profile of bloodstream infections in adult patients with hematological diseases in the period 2014-2018 to provide evidence for the rational use of antibiotics. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the bloodstream infections in patients with hematological diseases from January 2014 to December 2018 at the institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital; this included an assessment of the clinical characteristics, distribution of pathogens, and antibiotic resistance data. Results: There were 1935 episodes of BSIs in the 1478 patients who were studied; among these, 1700 episodes occurred in the neutropenic phase. The 7-day and 30-day all-cause mortality rates were 5.5% and 8.2%, respectively. Bloodstream infection was usually accompanied by respiratory tract, perianal zone mucositis, and digestive tract symptoms; the respective proportions were 12.4%, 12.3%, and 9.1%, respectively. Total 2025 strains were isolated; 1551 (76.6%) of the pathogens were gram-negative bacteria, mainly Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumonia, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa; 423 (20.9%) were gram-positive bacteria, mainly Staphylococcus spp. and Streptococcus spp. Viridans; 51 (2.5%) were fungi, mainly Candida tropicalis. The resistance rates of Enterobateriaceae to piperacillin/tazobactam, carbapenems, amikacin were <10%. The resistance rates of K. pneumoniae to cefepime, piperacillin/tazobactam and meropenem increased annually. The resistance rates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to piperacillin/tazobactam, quinolones, Aminoglycosides were <5% even when compared to carbapenems. Eleven stains of methicillin-resistant S. aureus and 1 stain of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium were detected. Conclusion: The pathogens of bloodstream infection in adult patients with hematological diseases are widely distributed. The resistance rates of different strains vary; the rates in some species had a tendency to increase. Antibiotics should be selected rationally as per the distribution of pathogens and resistance to antibiotics in different patient groups.
