Effect of nonpermissive HLA-DPB1 mismatches after unrelated allogeneic transplantation with in vivo T-cell depletion.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the impact of donor-recipient HLA-DPB1 matching on outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with in vivo T-cell depletion using antithymocyte globulin (ATG) for patients with hematological malignancies. All donor-recipient pairs had high-resolution typing for HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-DRB1, HLA-DQB1, HLA-DPB1, and HLA-DRB3/4/5 and were matched at HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, and HLA-DRB1. HLA-DPB1 mismatches were categorized by immunogenicity of the DPB1 matching using the DPB T-cell epitope tool. Of 1004 donor-recipient pairs, 210 (21%) were DPB1 matched, 443 (44%) had permissive mismatches, 184 (18%) had nonpermissive mismatches, in graft-versus-host (GVH) direction, and 167 (17%) had nonpermissive mismatches in host-versus-graft (HVG) direction. Compared with HLA-DPB1 permissive mismatched pairs, nonpermissive GVH mismatched pairs had the highest risk for grade II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) (hazard ratio [HR], 1.4; P = .01) whereas matched pairs had the lowest risk (HR, 0.5; P < .001). Grade III to IV aGVHD was only increased with HLA-DPB1 nonpermissive GVH mismatched pairs (HR, 2.3; P = .005). The risk for disease progression was lower with any HLA-DPB1 mismatches, permissive or nonpermissive. However, the favorable prognosis of HLA-DPB1 mismatches on disease progression was observed only in peripheral blood stem cell recipients who were in the intermediate-risk group by the Disease Risk Index (HR, 0.4; P = .001) but no other risk groups. Our results suggest avoidance of nonpermissive GVH HLA-DPB1 mismatches for lowering the risk for grade II to IV and III to IV aGVHD. Permissive or nonpermissive HVG HLA-DPB1 mismatches may be preferred over HLA-DPB1 matches in the intermediate-risk patients to decrease the risk for disease progression.

Project description:HLA-C locus mismatches (MMs) are the most frequent class I disparities in unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and have a detrimental impact on clinical outcome. Recently, a few retrospective clinical studies have reported some variability in the immunogenicity of HLA-C incompatibilities. To get better insight into presumably permissive HLA-C MMs, we have developed a one-way in vitro mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) assay allowing to quantify activated CD56-CD137+CD8+ lymphocytes in HLA-C incompatible combinations. T cell-mediated alloresponses were correlated with genetic markers such as HLA-C mRNA expression and the number of amino acid (aa) MMs in the ?1/?2 domains (peptide-binding region). Because of the high rate of HLA-DPB1 incompatibilities in HLA-A-, B-, C-, DRB1-, and DQB1-matched unrelated HSCT patient/donor pairs, the impact of HLA-DPB1 mismatching, a potential bystander of CD4+ T cell activation, was also considered. Heterogeneous alloresponses were measured in 63 HLA-C-mismatched pairs with a positive assay in 52% of the combinations (2.3-18.6% activated CTLs), representing 24 different HLA-A~B~DRB1~DQB1 haplotypes. There was no correlation between measured alloresponses and mRNA expression of the mismatched HLA-C alleles. The HLA-C*03:03/03:04 MM did not induce any positive alloresponse in five MLRs. We also identified HLA-C*02:02 and HLA-C*06:02 as mismatched alleles with lower immunogenicity, and HLA-C*14:02 as a more immunogenic MM. A difference of at least 10 aa residues known to impact peptide/T cell receptor (TCR) binding and a bystander HLA-DPB1 incompatibility had a significant impact on CTL alloreactivity (p?=?0.021). The same HLA-C MM, when recognized by two different responders with the same HLA haplotypes, was recognized differently, emphasizing the role of the T-cell repertoire of responding cells. In conclusion, mismatched HLA-C alleles differing by 10 or more aas in the peptide/TCR-binding region, when occurring together with HLA-DPB1 incompatibilities, should be considered as high-risk MMs in unrelated HSCT.
