RESUMO

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative strategy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). The prediction of transplantation-related mortality (TRM) using the Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI) score and an arbitrary upper age limit of 55 years for administering myeloablative conditioning (MAC) are common strategies to ensure a safe procedure. The use of reduced-toxicity conditioning regimens is an additional approach to providing safe and effective myeloablation. Herein we report the outcome of AML and MDS patients conditioned with fludarabine and a myeloablative dose of busulfan (FB4) stratified by age and HCT-CI score. The primary objective was overall survival (OS) for patients age ≥55 years. Secondary objectives were total OS, TRM, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and GVHD, relapse-free survival (GRFS). The 2 year OS was 72% in patients age <55 and 51% in patients age ≥55. In patients age ≥55 with an HCT-CI <2, the estimated 2 year OS was 64%, with median OS not reached. In those with HCT-CI ≥2, the 2-year OS was 43%, with a median OS of 14 months. The total cumulative incidence of relapse was 30% regardless of age or HCT-CI score. FB4 conditioning regimen offers a high rate of prolonged remission with a relapse rate similar to that reported in previous studies. These positive outcomes suggest that this conditioning platform can be offered to patients age ≥55 years in the absence of comorbidities, and that age should not be the sole determinant of conditioning intensity.

RESUMO

Background: The second decade of this millennium was characterized by a widespread availability of chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapies to treat relapsed and refractory lymphomas. As expected, the role and indication of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) in the management of lymphoma changed. Currently, a non-neglectable proportion of patients will be considered candidate for an allo-HSCT, and the debate of which transplant platform should be offered is still active. Objectives: to report the outcome of patients affected with relapsed/refractory lymphoma and transplanted following reduced intensity conditioning at King's College Hospital, London, between January 2009 and April 2021. Methods: Conditioning was with 150mg/m2 of fludarabine and melphalan of 140mg/m2. The graft was unmanipulated G-CSF mobilized peripheral blood haematopoietic stem cells (PBSC). Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of pre-transplant Campath at the total dose of 60 mg in unrelated donors and 30 mg in fully matched sibling donors and ciclosporin. Results: One-year and five years OS were 87% and 79.9%, respectively, and median OS was not reached. The cumulative incidence of relapse was 16%. The incidence of acute GVHD was 48% (only grade I/II); no cases of grade III/IV were diagnosed. Chronic GVHD occurred in 39% of patients. TRM was 12%, with no cases developed within day 100 and 18 months after the procedure. Conclusions: The outcomes of heavily pretreated lymphoma patients are favorable, with median OS and survival not reached after a median of 49 months. In conclusion, even if some lymphoma subgroups cannot be treated (yet) with advanced cellular therapies, this study confirms the role of allo-HSCT as a safe and curative strategy.

RESUMO

Sinusoidal obstructive syndrome (SOS), also known as hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), is a potentially life-threatening complication following haemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The availability of new drugs for malignant hematological conditions has allowed more patients to be eligible for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplants, which has translated into a significant proportion of transplant patients having multiple risk factors for VOD/SOS. Based on these considerations, we undertook a dedicated weekly VOD/SOS ward round, aiming to facilitate early diagnosis of VOD/SOS and pre-emptively identify patients at risk, where a careful evaluation of differential diagnosis is essential. Herein, we present the results of our VOD/SOS ward round; between September 2020 and April 2022, 110 consecutive patients were evaluated in a focused VOD/SOS ward round. From the 110 patients, 108 had undergone HSCT and had at least one known risk factor for developing VOD/SOS. The median number of risk factors present in the VOD/SOS group and non-VOD/SOS group was five (range: three to six) and three (range: zero to seven), respectively. Late-onset VOD/SOS was diagnosed in 45% of our patients. The early identification of patients with multiple risk factors for VOD/SOS allowed an earlier diagnosis and the administration of defibrotide on the same day of diagnosis, which was two days earlier than our previous experience prior to the implementation of this protocol.
