Late effects after ablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation for adolescent and young adult acute myeloid leukemia.

ABSTRACT: There is marked paucity of data regarding late effects in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) who undergo myeloablative conditioning (MAC) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We evaluated late effects and survival in 826 1-year disease-free survivors of MAC HCT for AYA AML, with an additional focus on comparing late effects based upon MAC type (total body irradiation [TBI] vs high-dose chemotherapy only). The estimated 10-year cumulative incidence of subsequent neoplasms was 4% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2%-6%); 10-year cumulative incidence of nonmalignant late effects included gonadal dysfunction (10%; 95% CI, 8%-13%), cataracts (10%; 95% CI, 7%-13%), avascular necrosis (8%; 95% CI, 5%-10%), diabetes mellitus (5%; 95% CI, 3%-7%), and hypothyroidism (3%; 95% CI, 2%-5%). Receipt of TBI was independently associated with a higher risk of cataracts only (hazard ratio [HR], 4.98; P < .0001) whereas chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) was associated with an increased risk of cataracts (HR, 3.22; P = .0006), avascular necrosis (HR, 2.49; P = .006), and diabetes mellitus (HR, 3.36; P = .03). Estimated 10-year overall survival and leukemia-free survival were 73% and 70%, respectively, and did not differ on the basis of conditioning type. In conclusion, late effects among survivors of MAC HCT for AYA AML are frequent and are more closely linked to cGVHD than type of conditioning.

Project description:Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is physically and psychologically challenging, potentially exposing patients to quality-of-life (QoL) impairments. Adolescent and young adults (AYAs, aged 15 to 39 years) are a vulnerable cohort facing multiple hurdles due to dynamic changes in several aspects of their lives. The AYA population may be particularly prone to QoL issues during HCT. We hypothesized that due to the unique psychosocial challenges faced by AYAs, they would have an inferior quality of life. We studied QoL differences between AYA (aged 15 to 39 years) and older adult (aged 40 to 60 years) allogeneic HCT recipients before and after HCT. Additionally, we determined if pre-HCT QoL for AYA transplant recipients changed over time. QoL data were collected prospectively before and after transplant on 431 recipients aged 15 to 60 years from June 2003 through December 2017 using the Functional Assessment of Cancer Therapy-Bone Marrow Transplantation (FACT-BMT) questionnaire. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to assess differences among age groups. Pearson correlation (r) was used to determine if baseline QoL had improved after HCT from June 2003 through December 2017 in the AYA cohort. QoL did not differ among younger AYAs, older AYAs, or older adults at any time in the first year after allogeneic HCT. At 1 year post-HCT, total FACT-BMT score and all FACT-BMT domains except physical well-being improved from pre-HCT in all age groups. From 2003 to 2017, AYA allogeneic recipients experienced modest improvement in additional concerns (r = 0.26, P = .003), trial outcome index (r = 0.23, P = .008), and total FACT-BMT score (r = 0.19, P = .031), although no improvements were seen in physical, social, emotional, or functional well-being. Contrary to our hypothesis, we found that QoL in the AYA population is similar to that of older adults before and after HCT. Improvements in QoL of AYA allogeneic patients since 2003 were driven by the additional concerns domain, which addresses multiple psychosocial aspects such as vocation, hobbies, and acceptance of illness. Continued efforts to tailor treatment and support for AYA HCT recipients is critical to improving QoL outcomes.
