Comparison of myeloablative and reduced intensity conditioning unrelated donor allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplant outcomes for AML using thymoglobulin for GVHD prophylaxis.

ABSTRACT: A head-to-head comparison of outcomes of unrelated donor allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for AML between reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) and myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimens using thymoglobulin for GVHD prophylaxis is limited. We evaluated outcomes of 122 AML patients who received either busulfan (Bu)/fludarabine (Flu)/low-dose total body irradiation (TBI) as RIC (n = 64, 52%) or Bu/Flu as MAC (n = 58, 48%), and thymoglobulin 4.5 mg/kg total dose between day - 3 to - 1 for GVHD prophylaxis. Grades III-IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) was lower with Bu/Flu/TBI compared with Bu/Flu (6.2% vs 26.1%, p = 0.009). At 1 year, Bu/Flu/TBI was associated with similar chronic GVHD (41.2% vs 44.8%, p = 0.75), OS (61.9% vs 56.9%, p = 0.69), relapse rate (29.9% vs 20.7%, p = 0.24), relapse-free survival (52.8% vs 50%, p = 0.80), non-relapse mortality (17.4% vs 29.3%, p = 0.41), and GVHD-free relapse-free survival (24.2% vs 27.5%, p = 0.80) compared with Bu/Flu. Multivariable analysis did not reveal any difference in outcomes between both regimens. In summary, thymoglobulin at 4.5 mg/kg did not have any adverse impact on survival when used with RIC regimen. Both Bu/Flu/TBI and Bu/Flu conditioning regimens yielded similar survival.

Vorinostat plus tacrolimus/methotrexate to prevent GVHD after myeloablative conditioning, unrelated donor HCT.

Project description:The oral histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor (vorinostat) is safe and results in low incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after reduced-intensity conditioning, related donor hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). However, its safety and efficacy in preventing acute GVHD in settings of heightened clinical risk that use myeloablative conditioning, unrelated donor (URD), and methotrexate are not known. We conducted a prospective, phase 2 study in this higher-risk setting. We enrolled 37 patients to provide 80% power to detect a significant difference in grade 2 to 4 acute GVHD of 50% compared with a reduction in target to 28%. Eligibility included adults with a hematological malignancy to receive myeloablative HCT from an available 8/8-HLA matched URD. Patients received GVHD prophylaxis with tacrolimus and methotrexate. Vorinostat (100 mg twice daily) was started on day -10 and continued through day +100 post-HCT. Median age was 56 years (range, 18-69 years), and 95% had acute myelogenous leukemia or high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome. Vorinostat was safe and tolerable. The cumulative incidence of grade 2 to 4 acute GVHD at day 100 was 22%, and for grade 3 to 4 it was 8%. The cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was 29%; relapse, nonrelapse mortality, GVHD-free relapse-free survival, and overall survival at 1 year were 19%, 16%, 47%, and 76%, respectively. Correlative analyses showed enhanced histone (H3) acetylation in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and reduced interleukin 6 (P = .028) and GVHD biomarkers (Reg3, P = .041; ST2, P = .002) at day 30 post-HCT in vorinostat-treated subjects compared with similarly treated patients who did not receive vorinostat. Vorinostat for GVHD prevention is an effective strategy that should be confirmed in a randomized phase 3 study. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01790568.

KIR B donors improve the outcome for AML patients given reduced intensity conditioning and unrelated donor transplantation.

Project description:Natural killer (NK) cell recognition and killing of target cells are enhanced when inhibitory killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) are unable to engage their cognate HLA class I ligands. The genes of the KIR locus are organized into either KIR B haplotypes, containing 1 or more activating KIR genes or KIR A haplotypes, which lack those genes. Analysis of unrelated donor (URD) hematopoietic cell transplants (HCT), given to acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients between 1988 and 2009, showed that KIR B haplotype donors were associated with better outcomes, primarily from relapse protection. Most of these transplants involved marrow grafts, fully myeloablative (MAC) preparative regimens, and significant HLA mismatch. Because the practice of HCT continues to evolve, with increasing use of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC), peripheral blood stem cell grafts, and better HLA match, we evaluated the impact of URD KIR genotype on HCT outcome for AML in the modern era (2010-2016). This analysis combined data from a prospective trial testing URD selection based on KIR genotypes (n = 243) with that from a larger contemporaneous cohort of transplants (n = 2419). We found that KIR B haplotype donors conferred a significantly reduced risk of leukemia relapse and improved disease-free survival after RIC, but not MAC HCT. All genes defining KIR B haplotypes were associated with relapse protection, which was significant only in transplant recipients expressing the C1 epitope of HLA-C. In the context of current HCT practice using RIC, selection of KIR B donors could reduce relapse and improve overall outcome for AML patients receiving an allogeneic HCT.

Reduced intensity vs. myeloablative conditioning with fludarabine and PK-guided busulfan in allogeneic stem cell transplantation for patients with AML/MDS.

Project description:Conditioning regimens contribute significantly to outcomes following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens provide lower toxicity at the cost of reduced efficacy compared with myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimens. However, because pre-transplant prognostic variables often determine the conditioning regimen, studies of RIC vs. MAC have been inconclusive. We present a retrospective analysis of 242 acute myeloid leukemia (AML) or myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) patients, 112 of whom were in 56 pairs matched using propensity scores, to account for variation that may confound clinical outcomes. The uniform conditioning regimens consisted of fludarabine with pharmacokinetic (PK)-guided intravenous busulfan (Bu). The RIC and MAC regimens were dosed at the average daily area under the concentration-vs-time curve (AUC) of 4000 µMol min and 5000-6000 µMol min, or total course AUC of 16,000 µMol min and 20,000-24,000 µMol min, respectively; PK-guided dosing removes overlap in systemic Bu exposure. When patients' data were propensity-matched, there was a trend toward significantly increased full donor chimerism and decreased chronic graft vs. host disease in RIC, and no significant differences in progression free survival and overall survival between RIC and MAC. Our results also elucidate the efficacy of PK-guided-dosing in the setting of allo-SCT for AML and MDS.

Myeloablative vs reduced-intensity conditioning allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for chronic myeloid leukemia.

Project description:Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a potentially curative treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Optimal conditioning intensity for allo-HCT for CML in the era of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is unknown. Using the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research database, we sought to determine whether reduced-intensity/nonmyeloablative conditioning (RIC) allo-HCT and myeloablative conditioning (MAC) result in similar outcomes in CML patients. We evaluated 1395 CML allo-HCT recipients between the ages of 18 and 60 years. The disease status at transplant was divided into the following categories: chronic phase 1, chronic phase 2 or greater, and accelerated phase. Patients in blast phase at transplant and alternative donor transplants were excluded. The primary outcome was overall survival (OS) after allo-HCT. MAC (n = 1204) and RIC allo-HCT recipients (n = 191) from 2007 to 2014 were included. Patient, disease, and transplantation characteristics were similar, with a few exceptions. Multivariable analysis showed no significant difference in OS between MAC and RIC groups. In addition, leukemia-free survival and nonrelapse mortality did not differ significantly between the 2 groups. Compared with MAC, the RIC group had a higher risk of early relapse after allo-HCT (hazard ratio [HR], 1.85; P = .001). The cumulative incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) was lower with RIC than with MAC (HR, 0.77; P = .02). RIC provides similar survival and lower cGVHD compared with MAC and therefore may be a reasonable alternative to MAC for CML patients in the TKI era.

Sirolimus, tacrolimus and low-dose methotrexate based graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis after non-ablative or reduced intensity conditioning in related and unrelated donor allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant.

Project description:Encouraging results have been reported with sirolimus, tacrolimus and low-dose methotrexate after non-myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 71 patients with lymphoid malignancies treated with this prophylaxis regimen after non-myeloablative or reduced intensity allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant. Grafts were human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched related in 29 (41%), matched unrelated in 36 (51%) and 9/10 HLA-matched unrelated in six (8%) patients. The regimen was well tolerated and over 90% of patients completed the planned treatment. The cumulative incidences of 1-year grade B-D and C-D acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were 0.28 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.18-0.39) and 0.07 (95% CI, 0.03-0.15), respectively, and of 1- and 2-year chronic GVHD (National Institutes of Health criteria) in 70 evaluable patients were 0.15 (95% CI, 0.08-0.24) and 0.33 (95% CI, 0.22-0.44), respectively. The median day of onset of acute GVHD was 123 days (range, 17-268 days). Peri-transplant rituximab or anti-thymocyte globulin did not affect GVHD. The cumulative incidence of 1-year non-relapse mortality and relapse were 4% and 20%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 3.5 (range: 0.18-5.1) years, overall survival and progression-free survival at 2 years were 82% and 66%, respectively. This GVHD regimen results in a low incidence and severity of acute and chronic GVHD after reduced intensity and non-myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant for lymphoid malignancies. The study also highlights the incidence of late onset acute GVHD in non-myeloablative/reduced intensity conditioning, and the contribution of the new GVHD staging system that more accurately reflects clinical outcomes.

Double umbilical cord blood transplantation with reduced intensity conditioning and sirolimus-based GVHD prophylaxis.

Project description:The main limitations to umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation (UCBT) in adults are delayed engraftment, poor immunological reconstitution and high rates of non-relapse mortality (NRM). Double UCBT (DUCBT) has been used to circumvent the issue of low cell dose, but acute GVHD remains a significant problem. We describe our experience in 32 subjects, who underwent DUCBT after reduced-intensity conditioning with fludarabine/melphalan/antithymocyte globulin and who received sirolimus and tacrolimus to prevent acute GVHD. Engraftment of neutrophils occurred in all patients at a median of 21 days, and platelet engraftment occurred at a median of 42 days. Three subjects had grade II-IV acute GVHD (9.4%) and chronic GVHD occurred in four subjects (cumulative incidence 12.5%). No deaths were caused by GVHD and NRM at 100 days was 12.5%. At 2 years, NRM, PFS and OS were 34.4, 31.2 and 53.1%, respectively. As expected, immunologic reconstitution was slow, but PFS and OS were associated with reconstitution of CD4(+) and CD8(+) lymphocyte subsets, suggesting that recovery of adaptive immunity is required for the prevention of infection and relapse after transplantation. In summary, sirolimus and tacrolimus provide excellent GVHD prophylaxis in DUCBT, and this regimen is associated with low NRM after DUCBT.

Posttransplant cyclophosphamide as GVHD prophylaxis for peripheral blood stem cell HLA-mismatched unrelated donor transplant.

Project description:Efficacy of PTCy after mismatched unrelated donor (MMUD) HCT is unknown. In this pilot clinical trial, we enrolled 38 patients with hematologic malignancies scheduled to undergo MMUD-HCT (≥6/8 HLA-matched donors) onto 1 of 2 conditioning strata: myeloablative using fludarabine and fractionated total body irradiation (n = 19) or reduced intensity with fludarabine/melphalan (n = 19). Graft source was peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs), and GVHD prophylaxis was PTCy, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil. Patients' median age was 53 years (range, 21-72 years). Median number of HLA mismatches was 2 (range, 1-4) of 12 loci. Twenty-three patients (61%) were considered racial (n = 12) or ethnic (n = 11) minorities. Median time to neutrophil engraftment was 16 days (range, 13-35 days). With a median follow-up of 18.3 months (range, 4.3-25.0 months) for surviving patients, 1-year overall survival (OS) and GVHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) were 87% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 71-94) and 68% (95% CI: 51-81), respectively. Cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality at 100 days and 1 year were 0% and 11% (95% CI: 4-27), respectively, whereas relapse/progression was 11% (95% CI: 4-27). Cumulative incidence of 100-day acute GVHD grades 2-4 and 3-4 and 1-year chronic GVHD were 50% (95% CI: 36-69), 18% (95% CI: 9-36), and 48% (95% CI: 34-68), respectively. The rate of moderate/severe chronic GVHD was 3% in the entire cohort. We showed highly promising OS/GRFS rates with an acceptable risk profile after PBSC-MMUD-HCT with PTCy. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT03128359.

Thiotepa-fludarabine-treosulfan conditioning for 2nd allogeneic HCT from an alternative unrelated donor for patients with AML: a prospective multicenter phase II trial.

Project description:Therapeutic options for patients with AML relapsing after allogeneic HCT range from chemotherapy or hypomethylating agents with or without donor lymphocyte infusions to a 2nd allogeneic HCT. Available data are based on retrospective single center or registry studies. The aim of this multicenter trial was to investigate prospectively intensive conditioning with Thiotepa, Fludarabine and Treosulfan (TFT) for 2nd allogeneic HCT from an alternative unrelated donor in patients with AML relapse > 6 months after a 1st allogeneic HCT. Primary endpoint was disease-free survival (DFS) at one year after 2nd HCT. 50 patients median age 53.5 years, in CR/PR (34%) or active relapse (66%) were included. 33 of 38 patients (86.8%) with available data achieved CR 100 days post transplant. 23 patients were alive and free of relapse at primary endpoint one year after 2nd HCT (DFS rate 0.46, 95%-CI (0.32-0.61). Three-year rates of DFS, relapse, non-relapse mortality, and overall survival were 0.24, 95%-CI (0.13-0.36); 0.36 (0.25-0.52); 0.40 (0.29-0.57); and 0.24 (0.13-0.37). Second HCT with TFT conditioning is feasible and has high anti-leukemic efficacy in chemosensitive or refractory AML relapse after prior allogeneic HCT. Still, relapse rates and NRM after 2nd allogeneic HCT remain a challenge. The trial is registered in the German Clinical Trials Registry (number DRKS00005126).

Tacrolimus/sirolimus vs tacrolimus/methotrexate as GVHD prophylaxis after matched, related donor allogeneic HCT.

Project description:Grades 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) occurs in approximately 35% of matched, related donor (MRD) allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients. We sought to determine if the combination of tacrolimus and sirolimus (Tac/Sir) was more effective than tacrolimus and methotrexate (Tac/Mtx) in preventing acute GVHD and early mortality after allogeneic MRD HCT in a phase 3, multicenter trial. The primary end point of the trial was to compare 114-day grades 2-4 acute GVHD-free survival using an intention-to-treat analysis of 304 randomized subjects. There was no difference in the probability of day 114 grades 2-4 acute GVHD-free survival (67% vs 62%, P = .38). Grades 2-4 GVHD was similar in the Tac/Sir and Tac/Mtx arms (26% vs 34%, P = .48). Neutrophil and platelet engraftment were more rapid in the Tac/Sir arm (14 vs 16 days, P < .001; 16 vs 19 days, P = .03). Oropharyngeal mucositis was less severe in the Tac/Sir arm (peak Oral Mucositis Assessment Scale score 0.70 vs 0.96, P < .001), but otherwise toxicity was similar. Chronic GVHD, relapse-free survival, and overall survival at 2 years were no different between study arms (53% vs 45%, P = .06; 53% vs 54%, P = .77; and 59% vs 63%, P = .36). Based on similar long-term outcomes, more rapid engraftment, and less oropharyngeal mucositis, the combination of Tac/Sir is an acceptable alternative to Tac/Mtx after MRD HCT. This study was funded by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the National Cancer Institute; and the trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT00406393.

Extracorporeal photopheresis for the prevention of acute GVHD in patients undergoing standard myeloablative conditioning and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Project description:GVHD is partly mediated by host APCs that activate donor T cells. Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) can modulate APC function and benefit some patients with GVHD. We report the results of a study using ECP administered before a standard myeloablative preparative regimen intended to prevent GVHD. Grades II-IV acute GVHD developed in 9 (30%) of 30 recipients of HLA-matched related transplants and 13 (41%) of 32 recipients of HLA-matched unrelated or HLA-mismatched related donor transplants. Actuarial estimates of overall survival (OS) at day 100 and 1-year post transplant were 89% (95% CI, 78-94%) and 77% (95% CI, 64-86%), respectively. There were no unexpected adverse effects of ECP. Historical controls receiving similar conditioning and GVHD prophylaxis regimens but no ECP were identified from the database of the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research and multivariate analysis indicated a lower risk of grades II-IV acute GVHD in patients receiving ECP (P=0.04). Adjusted OS at 1 year was 83% in the ECP study group and 67% in the historical control group (relative risk 0.44; 95% CI, 0.24-0.80) (P=0.007). These preliminary data may indicate a potential survival advantage with ECP for transplant recipients undergoing standard myeloablative hematopoietic cell transplantation.
