Clonal Hematopoiesis after Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation Does Not Confer Adverse Prognosis in Patients with AML.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Despite a 50% cure rate, relapse remains the main cause of death in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) consolidated with autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in first remission (CR1). Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CH) increases the risk for hematological and cardiovascular disorders and death. The impact of CH persisting after ASCT in AML patients is unclear.

Materials and methods

We retrospectively investigated the prognostic value of persisting DNMT3A, TET2, or ASXL1 (DTA) mutations after ASCT. Patients underwent stratification depending on the presence of DTA mutations.

Results

We investigated 110 consecutive AML patients receiving ASCT in CR1 after two induction cycles at our center between 2007 and 2020. CH-related mutations were present in 31 patients (28.2%) after ASCT. The baseline characteristics were similar between patients with or without persisting DTA mutations after ASCT. The median progression free survival was 26.9 months in patients without DTA mutations and 16.7 months in patients with DTA mutations (HR 0.75 (0.42-1.33), p = 0.287), and the median overall survival was 80.9 and 54.4 months (HR 0.79 (0.41-1.51), p = 0.440), respectively.

Conclusion

We suggest that DTA-CH after ASCT is not associated with an increased risk of relapse or death. The persistence of DTA mutations after induction should not prevent AML patients in CR1 from ASCT consolidation. Independent studies should confirm these data.

Clonal hematopoiesis predicts development of therapy-related myeloid neoplasms post-autologous stem cell transplantation.

Project description:Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (tMN) develop after exposure to cytotoxic and radiation therapy, and due to their adverse prognosis, it is of paramount interest to identify patients at high risk. The presence of clonal hematopoiesis has been shown to increase the risk of developing tMN. The value of analyzing hematopoietic stem cells harvested at leukapheresis before autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with next-generation sequencing and immunophenotyping represents potentially informative parameters that have yet to be discovered. We performed a nested case-control study to elucidate the association between clonal hematopoiesis, mobilization potential, and aberrant immunophenotype in leukapheresis products with the development of tMN after ASCT. A total of 36 patients with nonmyeloid disease who were diagnosed with tMN after treatment with ASCT were included as case subjects. Case subjects were identified from a cohort of 1130 patients treated with ASCT and matched with 36 control subjects who did not develop tMN after ASCT. Case subjects were significantly poorer mobilizers of CD34+ cells at leukapheresis (P = .016), indicating that these patients possess inferior bone marrow function. Both clonal hematopoiesis (odds ratio, 5.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.8-19.1; P = .003) and aberrant expression of CD7 (odds ratio, 6.6; 95% confidence interval, 1.6-26.2; P = .004) at the time of ASCT were associated with an increased risk of developing tMN after ASCT. In conclusion, clonal hematopoiesis, present at low variant allele frequencies, and aberrant CD7 expression on stem cells in leukapheresis products from patients with nonmyeloid hematologic cancer hold potential for the early identification of patients at high risk of developing tMN after ASCT.

Feasibility and efficacy of salvage allogeneic stem cell transplantation in AML patients relapsing after autologous stem cell transplantation.

Project description:Autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is suitable for consolidation of favorable-/intermediate-risk AML patients in CR1. However, ~50% of AML patients relapse after autologous HCT, and efficacy of subsequent salvage strategies including allogeneic HCT remains unclear. We studied 123 consecutive patients with newly diagnosed AML undergoing high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT)/autologous HCT in CR1. In relapsing patients afterwards, we analyzed salvage treatments and outcomes focusing particularly on salvage allogeneic HCT. Of 123 patients, 64 (52%) relapsed after autologous HCT. Subsequently, 13 (21%) received palliative therapy, whereas 51 (79%) proceeded to salvage therapy with a curative intent. Of the 47 patients with a curative intent and who did not proceed directly to allogeneic HCT, 23 (49%) achieved CR2 or had ongoing hematologic CR1 despite molecular relapse. Finally, 30 patients (47%) received allogeneic HCT with estimated 3-year leukemia-free and overall survival rates of 33% and 43%. Hematologic remission at allogeneic HCT and lack of acute GvHD had a positive impact on OS and LFS (p < 0.05). Our study suggests that almost 80% of AML patients can undergo salvage therapy following relapse after front-line HDCT/autologous HCT. Allogeneic HCT can provide cure in one third of patients relapsing after front-line HDCT/autologous HCT.

Determinants of Interpatient Variability in Treosulfan Pharmacokinetics in AML Patients Undergoing Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation.

Project description:Limited data on treosulfan pharmacokinetics in adults, particularly regarding autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML), is available to date. Furthermore, correlations between treosulfan exposure, toxicity, and clinical outcome remain understudied. In this single-center retrospective study, we analyzed data from 55 AML patients who underwent HDCT with treosulfan (14 g/m2) and melphalan (140 mg/m2 or 200 mg/m2) (TreoMel) between August 2019 and November 2023 at the University Hospital of Bern. We assessed treosulfan pharmacokinetics and correlations with several physiological parameters with potential impact on its interpatient variability. We further analyzed how treosulfan exposure correlates with toxicity and clinical outcomes. Women above 55 years showed higher area under the curve (AUC) levels (median: 946 mg*h/L, range: 776-1370 mg*h/L), as compared to women under 55 (median: 758 mg*h/L, range: 459-1214 mg*h/L, p = 0.0487). Additionally, women above 55 showed higher peak levels (median: 387 mg/L, range: 308-468 mg/L), as compared to men of the same age range (median: 326 mg/L, range: 264-395 mg/L, p = 0.0159). Treosulfan levels varied significantly with body temperature, liver enzymes, hemoglobin/hematocrit., and treosulfan exposure correlated with diarrhea severity in women over 55 (p = 0.0076). Our study revealed age- and gender-related variability in treosulfan pharmacokinetics, with higher plasma levels observed in female patients above 55. Moreover, our data suggest that treosulfan plasma levels may vary with several physiological parameters and that higher treosulfan exposure may impact toxicity. Our study underlines the need for further research on treosulfan pharmacokinetics, especially in older patients undergoing HDCT in the ASCT setting.

Project description:The incidence of hematologic cancers increases with age. These cancers are associated with recurrent somatic mutations in specific genes. We hypothesized that such mutations would be detectable in the blood of some persons who are not known to have hematologic disorders.We analyzed whole-exome sequencing data from DNA in the peripheral-blood cells of 17,182 persons who were unselected for hematologic phenotypes. We looked for somatic mutations by identifying previously characterized single-nucleotide variants and small insertions or deletions in 160 genes that are recurrently mutated in hematologic cancers. The presence of mutations was analyzed for an association with hematologic phenotypes, survival, and cardiovascular events.Detectable somatic mutations were rare in persons younger than 40 years of age but rose appreciably in frequency with age. Among persons 70 to 79 years of age, 80 to 89 years of age, and 90 to 108 years of age, these clonal mutations were observed in 9.5% (219 of 2300 persons), 11.7% (37 of 317), and 18.4% (19 of 103), respectively. The majority of the variants occurred in three genes: DNMT3A, TET2, and ASXL1. The presence of a somatic mutation was associated with an increase in the risk of hematologic cancer (hazard ratio, 11.1; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.9 to 32.6), an increase in all-cause mortality (hazard ratio, 1.4; 95% CI, 1.1 to 1.8), and increases in the risks of incident coronary heart disease (hazard ratio, 2.0; 95% CI, 1.2 to 3.4) and ischemic stroke (hazard ratio, 2.6; 95% CI, 1.4 to 4.8).Age-related clonal hematopoiesis is a common condition that is associated with increases in the risk of hematologic cancer and in all-cause mortality, with the latter possibly due to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease.

Clonal hematopoiesis is associated with adverse outcomes in multiple myeloma patients undergoing transplant.

Project description:Multiple myeloma (MM) is a plasma-cell neoplasm that is treated with high-dose chemotherapy, autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) and long-term immunomodulatory drug (IMiD) maintenance. The presence of somatic mutations in the peripheral blood is termed clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) and is associated with adverse outcomes. Targeted sequencing of the stem cell product from 629 MM patients treated by ASCT at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (2003-2011) detects CHIP in 136/629 patients (21.6%). The most commonly mutated genes are DNMT3A, TET2, TP53, ASXL1 and PPM1D. Twenty-one from fifty-six patients (3.3%) receiving first-line IMiD maintenance develop a therapy-related myeloid neoplasm (TMN). However, regardless of CHIP status, the use of IMiD maintenance associates with improved PFS and OS. In those not receiving IMiD maintenance, CHIP is associated with decreased overall survival (OS) (HR:1.34, p = 0.02) and progression free survival (PFS) (HR:1.45, p < 0.001) due to an increase in MM progression.

Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential and its impact on patient trajectories after stem cell transplantation.

Project description:Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a recently identified process where older patients accumulate distinct subclones defined by recurring somatic mutations in hematopoietic stem cells. CHIP's implications for stem cell transplantation have been harder to identify due to the high degree of mutational heterogeneity that is present within the genetically distinct subclones. In order to gain a better understanding of CHIP and the impact of clonal dynamics on transplantation outcomes, we created a mathematical model of clonal competition dynamics. Our analyses highlight the importance of understanding competition intensity between healthy and mutant clones. Importantly, we highlight the risk that CHIP poses in leading to dominance of precancerous mutant clones and the risk of donor derived leukemia. Furthermore, we estimate the degree of competition intensity and bone marrow niche decline in mice during aging by using our modeling framework. Together, our work highlights the importance of better characterizing the ecological and clonal composition in hematopoietic donor populations at the time of stem cell transplantation.

Increased clonal hematopoiesis involving DNA damage response genes in patients undergoing lung transplantation.

Project description:BACKGROUNDCellular stressors influence the development of clonal hematopoiesis (CH). We hypothesized that environmental, inflammatory, and genotoxic stresses drive the emergence of CH in lung transplant recipients. METHODSWe performed a cross-sectional cohort study of 85 lung transplant recipients to characterize CH prevalence. We evaluated somatic variants using duplex error-corrected sequencing and germline variants using whole exome sequencing. We evaluated CH frequency and burden using χ2 and Poisson regression, and we evaluated associations with clinical and demographic variables and clinical outcomes using χ2, logistic regression, and Cox regression. RESULTSCH in DNA damage response (DDR) genes TP53, PPM1D, and ATM was increased in transplant recipients compared with a control group of older adults (28% versus 0%, adjusted OR [aOR], 12.9 [1.7-100.3], P = 0.0002). Age (OR, 1.13 [1.03-1.25], P = 0.014) and smoking history (OR 4.25 [1.02-17.82], P = 0.048) were associated with DDR CH. Germline variants predisposing to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis were identified but not associated with CH. DDR CH was associated with increased cytomegalovirus viremia versus patients with no (OR, 7.23 [1.95-26.8], P = 0.018) or non-DDR CH (OR, 7.64 [1.77-32.89], P = 0.024) and mycophenolate discontinuation (aOR, 3.8 [1.3-12.9], P = 0.031). CONCLUSIONCH in DDR genes is prevalent in lung transplant recipients and is associated with posttransplant outcomes including cytomegalovirus activation and mycophenolate intolerance.

Clonal Hematopoiesis of Indeterminate Potential Predicts Adverse Outcomes in Patients With Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease.

Project description:BackgroundClonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP)-the age-related clonal expansion of blood stem cells with leukemia-associated mutations-is a novel cardiovascular risk factor. Whether CHIP remains prognostic in individuals with established atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is less clear.ObjectivesThis study tested whether CHIP predicts adverse outcomes in individuals with established ASCVD.MethodsIndividuals aged 40 to 70 years from the UK Biobank with established ASCVD and available whole-exome sequences were analyzed. The primary outcome was a composite of ASCVD events and all-cause mortality. Associations of any CHIP (variant allele fraction ≥2%), large CHIP clones (variant allele fraction ≥10%), and the most commonly mutated driver genes (DNMT3A, TET2, ASXL1, JAK2, PPM1D/TP53 [DNA damage repair genes], and SF3B1/SRSF2/U2AF1 [spliceosome genes]) with incident outcomes were compared using unadjusted and multivariable-adjusted Cox regression.ResultsOf 13,129 individuals (median age: 63 years) included, 665 (5.1%) had CHIP. Over a median follow-up of 10.8 years, any CHIP and large CHIP at baseline were associated with adjusted HRs of 1.23 (95% CI: 1.10-1.38; P < 0.001) and 1.34 (95% CI: 1.17-1.53; P < 0.001), respectively, for the primary outcome. TET2 and spliceosome CHIP, especially large clones, were most strongly associated with adverse outcomes (large TET2 CHIP: HR: 1.89; 95% CI: 1.40-2.55; P <0.001; large spliceosome CHIP: HR: 3.02; 95% CI: 1.95-4.70; P < 0.001).ConclusionsCHIP is independently associated with adverse outcomes in individuals with established ASCVD, with especially high risks observed in TET2 and SF3B1/SRSF2/U2AF1 CHIP.

Increased stem cell proliferation in atherosclerosis accelerates clonal hematopoiesis.

Project description:Clonal hematopoiesis, a condition in which individual hematopoietic stem cell clones generate a disproportionate fraction of blood leukocytes, correlates with higher risk for cardiovascular disease. The mechanisms behind this association are incompletely understood. Here, we show that hematopoietic stem cell division rates are increased in mice and humans with atherosclerosis. Mathematical analysis demonstrates that increased stem cell proliferation expedites somatic evolution and expansion of clones with driver mutations. The experimentally determined division rate elevation in atherosclerosis patients is sufficient to produce a 3.5-fold increased risk of clonal hematopoiesis by age 70. We confirm the accuracy of our theoretical framework in mouse models of atherosclerosis and sleep fragmentation by showing that expansion of competitively transplanted Tet2-/- cells is accelerated under conditions of chronically elevated hematopoietic activity. Hence, increased hematopoietic stem cell proliferation is an important factor contributing to the association between cardiovascular disease and clonal hematopoiesis.
