A mathematical model for dynamics of soluble form of DNAM-1 as a biomarker for graft-versus-host disease.

ABSTRACT: DNAM-1 (CD226) is an activating immunoreceptor expressed on T cells and NK cells and involved in the pathogenesis of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We previously reported that a soluble form of DNAM-1 (sDNAM-1) is generated by shedding from activated T cells. Moreover, higher serum levels of sDNAM-1 in patients before allo-HSCT is a predictive biomarker for the development of aGVHD based on the retrospective univariate and multivariate analyses in allo-HSCT patients. However, it remains unclear how the serum levels of sDNAM-1 are regulated after allo-HSCT and whether they are associated with the development of aGVHD. Here, we constructed a mathematical model to assess the dynamics of sDNAM-1 after allo-HSCT by assuming that there are three types of sDNAM-1 (the first and the second were from alloreactive and non-alloreactive donor lymphocytes, respectively, and the third from recipient lymphocytes). Our mathematical model fitted well to the data set of sDNAM-1 in patients (n = 67) who had undergone allo-HSCT and suggest that the high proportion of the first type of sDNAM-1 to the total of the first and second types is associated with high risk of the development of severe aGVHD. Thus, sDNAM-1 after allo-HSCT can be a biomarker for the development of aGVHD.

Project description:Objectives Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) is the most frequent cause of late non-relapse mortality after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT). Nevertheless, established biomarkers of cGvHD are still missing. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Consensus Development Project on Criteria for Clinical Trials in cGvHD provided recommendations for biomarker research. We evaluated to which extent studies on cellular and soluble biomarkers in cGvHD published in the last 10 years complied with these recommendations. Also, we highlight the most promising biomarker candidates, verified in independent cohorts and/or repeatedly identified by separate studies. Methods We searched Medline and EMBASE for “cGvHD”, “biomarkers”, “soluble” and “cells” as MeSH terms or emtree subject headings, and their variations on July 28th, 2021, limited to human subjects, English language and last ten years. Reviews, case reports, conference abstracts and single nucleotide polymorphism studies were excluded. Criteria based on the set of recommendations from the NIH group for biomarker research in cGvHD were used for scoring and ranking the references. Results A total of 91 references encompassing 15,089 participants were included, 54 prospective, 17 retrospective, 18 cross-sectional, and 2 studies included both prospective and retrospective cohorts. Thirty-five papers included time-matched controls without cGvHD and 20 studies did not have any control subjects. Only 9 studies were randomized, and 8 were multicentric. Test and verification cohorts were included in 11 studies. Predominantly, diagnostic biomarkers were explored (n=54). Assigned scores ranged from 5-34. None of the studies fulfilled all 24 criteria (48 points). Nevertheless, the scores improved during the last years. Three cell subsets (CXCR3+CD56bright NK cells, CD19+CD21low and BAFF/CD19+ B cells) and several soluble factors (BAFF, IL-15, CD163, DKK3, CXCL10 and the panel of ST2, CXCL9, MMP3 and OPN) had the highest potential as diagnostic and/or prognostic biomarkers in cGvHD. Conclusion Despite several limitations of this review (limited applicability for paediatric population, definition of verification, missing data on comorbidities), we identified promising candidate biomarkers for further evaluation in multicentre collaborative studies. This review confirms the importance of the NIH consensus group criteria for improving the quality and reproducibility of cGvHD biomarker research.
