Impact of Toxicity on Survival for Older Adult Patients after CD34+ Selected Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

ABSTRACT: Ex vivo CD34+ selection before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) reduces graft-versus-host disease without increasing relapse but usually requires myeloablative conditioning. We aimed to identify toxicity patterns in older patients and the association with overall survival (OS) and nonrelapse mortality (NRM). We conducted a retrospective analysis of 200 patients who underwent CD34+ selection allo-HCT using the ClinicMACS® system between 2006 and 2012. All grade 3 to 5 toxicities by CTCAE v4.0 were collected. Eighty patients aged ? 60 years with a median age of 64 (range, 60 to 73) were compared with 120 patients aged < 60 years. Median follow-up in survivors was 48.2 months. OS and NRM were similar between ages ? 60 and <60, with 1-year OS 70% versus 78% (P?=?.07) and 1-year NRM 23% versus 13% (P?=?.38), respectively. In patients aged ? 60 the most common toxicities by day 100 were metabolic, with a cumulative incidence of 88% (95% CI, 78% to 93%), infectious 84% (95% CI, 73% to 90%), hematologic 80% (95% CI, 69% to 87%), oral/gastrointestinal (GI) 48% (95% CI, 36% to 58%), cardiovascular (CV) 35% (95% CI, 25% to 46%), and hepatic 25% (95% CI, 16% to 35%). Patients aged ? 60 had a higher risk of neurologic (HR, 2.63 [95% CI, 1.45 to 4.78]; P?=?.001) and CV (HR, 1.65 [95% CI, 1.04 to 2.63]; P?=?.03) toxicities but a lower risk of oral/GI (HR, .58 [95% CI, .41 to .83]; P?=?.003) compared with those aged < 60. CV, hepatic, neurologic, pulmonary, and renal toxicities remained independent risk factors for the risk of death and NRM in separate multivariate models adjusting for age and hematopoietic cell transplantation-specific comorbidity index. Overall, the toxicity of a more intense regimen is potentially balanced by the absence of toxicity related to methotrexate and calcineurin inhibitors in older patients. Prospective study of toxicities after allo-HCT in older patients is essential.

Project description:Despite ongoing therapeutic advances, multiple myeloma (MM) remains largely incurable, and outcomes in patients who develop resistance to immunomodulatory drugs or proteasome inhibitors remain grim. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (alloHCT) is an alternative option that may offer potential for cure. Although rates of transplantation-related morbidity and mortality have decreased in recent years, weighing this approach's potential benefits against nontransplantation therapies demands a thoroughly informed pre-alloHCT assessment. Here we assess the impact of pre-alloHCT variables on important clinical outcomes in a large cohort of relapsed refractory MM (RRMM) CD34+-selected alloHCT recipients. We included all patients with MM who underwent CD34+-selected alloHCT at our center between June 2010 and December 2015. Patients were conditioned with busulfan (0.8 mg/kg × 10), melphalan (70 mg/m2 × 2), and fludarabine (25 mg/m2 × 5), followed by infusion of a CD34+-selected peripheral blood stem cell graft, without post-alloHCT graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. The 73-patient cohort had a median age of 55 years (range, 37 to 66 years). Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 70% and 53%, respectively, at 1 year (95% confidence interval [CI], 58% to 79% and 41% to 64%) and 50% and 30%, respectively, at 3 years (95% CI, 38% to 62% and 19% to 41%). The cumulative incidence of relapse was 25% at 1 year (95% CI, 15% to 35%) and 47% at 3 years (95% CI, 35% to 58%). Nonrelapse mortality at 1 year was 22% (95% CI, 13% to 32%). The cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) was 7% at 100 days (95% CI, 3% to 14%), and that of any chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was 8% at 1 year (95% CI, 3% to 16%). International Staging System (ISS) stage II-III assessed before salvage therapy was associated with poorer 3-year OS (30% versus 54%; P = .037) and 3-year PFS (9% versus 33%; P = .013), and increased 3-year relapse incidence (72% versus 39%; P = .004). Older age and GVHD before 6 months (aGVHD grade II-IV or cGVHD of any grade) were also associated with poorer OS, and a greater number of pre-alloHCT lines of therapy was also associated with increased relapse incidence. Our findings reinforce that CD34+-selected alloHCT can achieve prolonged disease control and long-term survival in high- risk, heavily treated refractory MM populations. We also identified numerous pre-alloHCT variables associated with OS, PFS, and relapse. Amongst these, presalvage ISS stage II-III was consistently associated with poorer survival and relapse outcomes. Given the lack of established alternate therapies for patients with RRMM, we advocate the identification of adverse pre-alloHCT variables to inform alloHCT decision making rather than to exclude patient cohorts from this potentially curative treatment option.

Project description:CD34+-selected stem cell boost (SCB) without conditioning has recently been utilized for poor graft function (PGF) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with promising results. Unfortunately, many patients have been unable to receive the boost infusion as their donors were unwilling or unable to undergo an additional stem cell collection. Therefore, we conducted this study utilizing either fresh or cryopreserved peripheral blood stem cell products to create CD34+-selected boost infusions for the treatment of PGF. Additionally, to explore relationship of CD34+ dose and response, we included a cohort of donors mobilized with plerixafor in addition to the standard granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Twenty-six patients with PGF were included in this study. Seventeen donor-recipient pairs were enrolled onto the prospective study; an additional 9 patients treated off protocol were reviewed retrospectively. Three different donor products were used for CD34+ selection: (1) fresh mobilized product using G-CSF only, (2) fresh mobilized products using G-CSF and plerixafor, and (3) cryopreserved cells mobilized with G-CSF. CD34+ cell selection was performed using a CliniMACS. The infusion was not preceded by administration of any chemotherapy or conditioning regimen. The primary objective was hematologic response rate and secondary objectives included CD34+ yields, incidence and severity of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), overall survival (OS), and relapse-free survival (RFS). The median post-selection CD34+ counts per kilogram of recipient weight were 3.1 × 106, 10.9 × 106, and 1 × 106 for G-CSF only, G-CSF plus plerixafor, and cryopreserved products, respectively. The median CD34+ yields (defined as the number of CD34+ cells after selection/CD34+ cells before CD34+ selection) were 69%, 66%, and 28% for G-CSF only, G-CSF plus plerixafor, and cryopreserved products, respectively. After SCB, 16 of the 26 recipients (62%) had a complete response, including 5 of 8 (63%) who received cryopreserved products. Five had a partial response (19%), resulting in an overall response rate of 81%. One-year RFS and OS were 50% and 65%, respectively. There was no treatment-related toxicity reported other than GVHD: 6 (23%) developed acute GVHD (2 grade I and 4 grade II) and 8 (31%) developed chronic GVHD (2 limited and 6 extensive). Cryopreserved products are viable alternatives to create SCB for the treatment of PGF. When collecting fresh products is an option, the addition of plerixafor increases CD34+ yield over G-CSF alone; however, it is currently unclear if the CD34+ cell dose impacts the efficacy of the SCB.
