Prognostic Performance of the Augmented Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Specific Comorbidity/Age Index in Recipients of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation from Alternative Graft Sources.

ABSTRACT: The Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Specific Comorbidity Index (HCT-CI) was developed and validated to weigh the burden of pretransplantation comorbidities and estimate their impact on post-transplantation risks of nonrelapse mortality (NRM). Recently, the HCT-CI was augmented by the addition of both age and the values of 3 markers: ferritin, albumin, and platelet count. So far, research involving The HCT-CI has been limited almost exclusively to recipients of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from HLA-matched grafts. To this end, we sought to investigate the discriminative capacity of an augmented comorbidity/age index among 724 recipients of allogeneic HCT from HLA-mismatched (n?=?345), haploidentical (n = 117), and umbilical cord blood (UCB; n?=?262) grafts between 2000 and 2013. In the overall cohort, the augmented comorbidity/age index had a higher c-statistic estimate for prediction of NRM compared with the original HCT-CI (.63 versus .59). Findings were similar for recipients of HLA-mismatched (.62 versus .59), haploidentical (.60 versus .54), or UCB grafts (.65 versus .61). Compared with patients with an HCT-CI score ?4, those with a score <4 had a higher survival rate among recipients of HLA-mismatched (55% versus 39%; P < .0008), HLA-haploidentical (58% versus 38%; P = .01), or UCB (67% versus 48%; P = .004) grafts. Our results demonstrate the utility of the augmented comorbidity/age index as a valid prognostic tool among recipients of allogeneic HCT from alternative graft sources.

Project description:Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is major cause of morbidity and mortality following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Ixazomib is an oral, second-generation, proteasome inhibitor that has been shown in preclinical models to prevent GVHD. We conducted a phase I/II trial in 57 patients to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ixazomib administration for cGVHD prophylaxis in patients undergoing allogeneic HCT. Oral ixazomib was administered on a weekly basis for a total of 4 doses, beginning days +60 through +90, to recipients of matched related donor (MRD, n = 25) or matched unrelated donor (MUD, n = 26) allogeneic HCT in phase II portion of the study, once the recommended phase II dose of 4 mg was identified in phase I (n = 6). All patients received peripheral blood graft and standard GVHD prophylaxis of tacrolimus and methotrexate. Ixazomib administration was safe and well tolerated, with thrombocytopenia, leukopenia, gastrointestinal complaints, and fatigue the most common adverse events (>10%). In phase II (n = 51), the cumulative incidence of cGVHD at 1 year was 36% (95% confidence interval [CI], 19% to 54%) in the MRD cohort and 39% (95% CI, 21% to 56%) in the MUD cohort. One-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) and relapse was 0% and 20% (95% CI, 8% to 36%) in the MRD cohort, respectively. In the MUD cohort, the respective NRM and relapse rates were 4% (0% to 16%) and 34% (17% to 52%). The outcomes on the study were compared post hoc with contemporaneous matched Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) controls. This post hoc analysis showed no significant improvement in cGVHD rates in both the MRD (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.85, P = .64) or MUD cohorts (HR = 0.68, P = .26) on the study compared with CIBMTR controls. B cell activating factor plasma levels were significantly higher after ixazomib dosing in those who remained cGVHD free compared with those developed cGVHD. This study shows that the novel strategy of short-course oral ixazomib following allogeneic HCT is safe but did not demonstrate significant improvement in cGVHD incidence in recipients of MRD and MUD transplantation compared with matched CIBMTR controls. This study is registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02250300.
