Association between P2X7 Polymorphisms and Post-Transplant Outcomes in Allogeneic Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.

ABSTRACT: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) is a highly effective treatment method for haematologic malignancies. However, infection of acute organ dysfunction and graft versus host disease (GVHD) impact negatively on patient outcomes. Pre-transplant conditioning regimes are associated with high levels of immunogenic cell death and the release of extracellular ATP, which binds to the P2X7 receptor. It has been proposed that signaling through the P2X7 receptor may lead to activation of downstream effectors that influence alloSCT outcome. In this study, we examined the effect of gain-of-function (GOF) or loss-of-function (LOF) P2X7 Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP) in 453 paired alloSCT donors and recipients and correlated their presence or absence to the major post-transplant outcomes of acute GVHD, relapse free survival and overall survival. The allelic frequency of P2X7 SNP in recipients and donors was not different from those SNP for which there is published population data. The LOF SNP Glu496Ala was overrepresented in recipients who did not develop severe acute GVHD and was associated with improved overall survival in rare homozygous recipients, whereas the LOF SNP Ile568Asn was more common in patients with grade 1-4 GVHD but lost statistical association in patients with grade 2-4 aGVHD, and was associated with reduced overall survival in heterozygotes due to an excess of infection-related deaths. The GOF variant haplotype (homozygous Gln460Arg-Ala348Thr) had no impact on post-alloSCT outcomes. Overall, our data indicate that allelic variations in recipients or donors occurs at the same frequency as the general population and may have a minor, but clinically nominal, impact on post-alloSCT outcomes.

Project description:Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been proposed as treatment for mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy, a rare fatal autosomal recessive disease due to TYMP mutations that result in thymidine phosphorylase deficiency. We conducted a retrospective analysis of all known patients suffering from mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy who underwent allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation between 2005 and 2011. Twenty-four patients, 11 males and 13 females, median age 25 years (range 10-41 years) treated with haematopoietic stem cell transplantation from related (n = 9) or unrelated donors (n = 15) in 15 institutions worldwide were analysed for outcome and its associated factors. Overall, 9 of 24 patients (37.5%) were alive at last follow-up with a median follow-up of these surviving patients of 1430 days. Deaths were attributed to transplant in nine (including two after a second transplant due to graft failure), and to mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy in six patients. Thymidine phosphorylase activity rose from undetectable to normal levels (median 697 nmol/h/mg protein, range 262-1285) in all survivors. Seven patients (29%) who were engrafted and living more than 2 years after transplantation, showed improvement of body mass index, gastrointestinal manifestations, and peripheral neuropathy. Univariate statistical analysis demonstrated that survival was associated with two defined pre-transplant characteristics: human leukocyte antigen match (10/10 versus <10/10) and disease characteristics (liver disease, history of gastrointestinal pseudo-obstruction or both). Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation can restore thymidine phosphorylase enzyme function in patients with mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy and improve clinical manifestations of mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy in the long term. Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation should be considered for selected patients with an optimal donor.

Project description:IntroductionPatients receiving a haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) are subjected to complex oral medications based on prophylactic and immunosuppressive treatments. Adherence to medication plays a role in survival, and medication non-adherence (MNA) is closely associated with graft-versus-host disease and other complications. The aim of this systematic review is to summarise the available evidence regarding prevalence rates of medication adherence, the risk factors of MNA, the effectiveness of interventions to increase medication adherence and the outcomes associated with MNA.Methods and analysisWe designed a systematic review according to the Joanna Briggs Institute methodology. We will search the Cochrane Library and the CINAHL, EMBASE, MEDLINE via PubMed, PsycINFO and Scopus databases. We will include published and unpublished primary studies: (a) on humans, from inception until 10 May 2022; (b) written in any language; (c) experimental (randomised and non-randomised), observational (prospective, retrospective cohort and case-control), correlational, cross-sectional and longitudinal; and (d) with a low risk of bias, according to the quality assessment we perform. We will exclude secondary and qualitative studies, protocols, publications without original data, including paediatrics or related to autologous HSCT. The primary outcome will be the prevalence of oral medication adherence; the secondary outcomes will be the risk factors of MNA, the interventions aimed at increasing medication adherence and the outcomes of MNA. Two researchers will independently screen the eligible studies, then extract and describe the data. Disagreements will be resolved by a third researcher. We will provide a qualitative narrative synthesis of the findings.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval is not required given that previously published studies will be used. We will disseminate the findings through conference presentations and publications in international peer-reviewed scientific journals.Prospero registration numberCRD42022315298.
