Peritransplant glucocorticoids redistribute donor T cells to the bone marrow and prevent relapse after haploidentical SCT.

ABSTRACT: Patients with acute leukemia who are unable to achieve complete remission prior to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) have dismal outcomes, with relapse rates well in excess of 60%. Haplo-identical SCT (haplo-SCT) may allow enhanced graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects by virtue of HLA class I/II donor-host disparities, but it typically requires intensive immunosuppression with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) to prevent lethal graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Here, we demonstrate in preclinical models that glucocorticoid administration from days -1 to +5 inhibits alloantigen presentation by professional recipient antigen presenting cells in the gastrointestinal tract and prevents donor T cell priming and subsequent expansion therein. In contrast, direct glucocorticoid signaling of donor T cells promotes chemokine and integrin signatures permissive of preferential circulation and migration into the BM, promoting donor T cell residency. This results in significant reductions in GVHD while promoting potent GVL effects; relapse in recipients receiving glucocorticoids, vehicle, or PT-Cy was 12%, 56%, and 100%, respectively. Intriguingly, patients with acute myeloid leukemia not in remission who received unmanipulated haplo-SCT and peritransplant glucocorticoids also had an unexpectedly low relapse rate at 1 year (32%; 95% CI, 18%-47%) with high overall survival at 3 years (58%; 95% CI, 38%-74%). These data highlight a potentially simple and effective approach to prevent relapse in patients with otherwise incurable leukemia that could be studied in prospective randomized trials.

Peri-transplant Glucocorticoids Redistribute Donor T-cells to the Bone Marrow and Prevent Relapse after haploidentical SCT

Haploidentical Donor Bone Marrow Transplantation for Severe Aplastic Anemia.

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (bone marrow transplantation [BMT]) is the only curative treatment of severe aplastic anemia. BMT from an human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donor is the standard of care for young patients; immunosuppressive therapy is used for older patients or those lacking matched sibling donors. Patients with refractory or relapsed disease are increasingly treated with HLA haploidentical BMT. Historically, haploidentical BMT led to high rates of graft rejection and graft-versus-host disease. High-dose post transplant cyclophosphamide, which mitigates the risk of graft-versus-host disease, is a major advance. This article provides an overview of the haploidentical BMT approach in severe aplastic anemia.

Haploidentical Donor Bone Marrow Transplant in Treating Patients With High-Risk Hematologic Cancer

Project description:This phase II trial studies how well giving fludarabine phosphate, cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and total-body irradiation together with a donor bone marrow transplant works in treating patients with high-risk hematologic cancer. Giving low doses of chemotherapy, such as fludarabine phosphate and cyclophosphamide, and total-body irradiation before a donor bone marrow transplant helps stop the growth of cancer cells by stopping them from dividing or killing them. Giving cyclophosphamide after transplant may also stop the patient’s immune system from rejecting the donor’s bone marrow stem cells. The donated stem cells may replace the patient’s immune system cells and help destroy any remaining cancer cells (graft-versus-tumor effect). Sometimes the transplanted cells from a donor can also make an immune response against the body’s normal cells. Giving tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil after the transplant may stop this from happening

Mechanisms of donor-specific tolerance in recipients of haploidentical combined bone marrow/kidney transplantation.

Project description:We recently reported long-term organ allograft survival without ongoing immunosuppression in four of five patients receiving combined kidney and bone marrow transplantation from haploidentical donors following nonmyeloablative conditioning. In vitro assays up to 18 months revealed donor-specific unresponsiveness. We now demonstrate that T cell recovery is gradual and is characterized by memory-type cell predominance and an increased proportion of CD4? CD25? CD127? FOXP3? Treg during the lymphopenic period. Complete donor-specific unresponsiveness in proliferative and cytotoxic assays, and in limiting dilution analyses of IL-2-producing and cytotoxic cells, developed and persisted for the 3-year follow-up in all patients, and extended to donor renal tubular epithelial cells. Assays in two of four patients were consistent with a role for a suppressive tolerance mechanism at 6 months to 1 year, but later (? 18 months) studies on all four patients provided no evidence for a suppressive mechanism. Our studies demonstrate, for the first time, long-term, systemic donor-specific unresponsiveness in patients with HLA-mismatched allograft tolerance. While regulatory cells may play an early role, long-term tolerance appears to be maintained by a deletion or anergy mechanism.

HLA-haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide expands the donor pool for patients with sickle cell disease.

Project description:Allogeneic marrow transplantation can cure sickle cell disease; however, HLA-matched donors are difficult to find, and the toxicities of myeloablative conditioning are prohibitive for most adults with this disease. We developed a nonmyeloablative bone marrow transplantation platform using related, including HLA-haploidentical, donors for patients with sickle cell disease. The regimen consisted of antithymocyte globulin, fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and total body irradiation, and graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with posttransplantation high-dose cyclophosphamide, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus or sirolimus. After screening 19 patients, we transplanted 17, 14 from HLA-haploidentical and 3 from HLA-matched related donors. Eleven patients engrafted durably. With a median follow-up of 711 days (minimal follow up 224 days), 10 patients are asymptomatic, and 6 patients are off immunosupression. Only 1 patient developed skin-only acute graft-versus-host disease that resolved without any therapy; no mortality was seen. Nonmyeloablative conditioning with posttransplantation high-dose cyclophosphamide expands the donor pool, making marrow transplantation feasible for most patients with sickle cell disease, and is associated with a low risk of complications, even with haploidentical related donors. Graft failure, 43% in haploidentical pairs, remains a major obstacle but may be acceptable in a fraction of patients if the majority can be cured without serious toxicities.

Glucocorticoids Regulate Bone Marrow B Lymphopoiesis After Stroke.

Project description:RationaleAfter a stroke, patients frequently experience altered systemic immunity resulting in peripheral immunosuppression and higher susceptibility to infections, which is at least partly attributed to lymphopenia. The mechanisms that profoundly change the systemic leukocyte repertoire after stroke are incompletely understood. Emerging evidence indicates that stroke alters hematopoietic output of the bone marrow.ObjectiveTo explore the mechanisms that lead to defects of B lymphopoiesis after ischemic stroke.Methods and resultsWe here report that ischemic stroke triggers brain-bone marrow communication via hormonal long-range signals that regulate hematopoietic B lineage decisions. Bone marrow fluorescence-activated cell sorter analyses and serial intravital microscopy indicate that transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in mice arrests B-cell development beginning at the pro-B-cell stage. This phenotype was not rescued in Myd88-/- and TLR4-/- mice with disrupted TLR (Toll-like receptor) signaling or after blockage of peripheral sympathetic nerves. Mechanistically, we identified stroke-induced glucocorticoid release as the main instigator of B lymphopoiesis defects. B-cell lineage-specific deletion of the GR (glucocorticoid receptor) in CD19-Cre loxP Nr3c1 mice attenuated lymphocytopenia after transient middle cerebral artery. In 20 patients with acute stroke, increased cortisol levels inversely correlated with blood lymphocyte numbers.ConclusionsOur data demonstrate that the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis mediates B lymphopoiesis defects after ischemic stroke.

Shortened-Duration Tacrolimus after Nonmyeloablative, HLA-Haploidentical Bone Marrow Transplantation.

Project description:With post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, nonmyeloablative HLA-haploidentical (NMA haplo) and HLA-matched blood or marrow transplantation (BMT) have comparable outcomes. Early discontinuation of immunosuppression may reduce the risk of relapse and improve immune reconstitution, but may increase the risk of GVHD. We conducted a prospective trial of NMA haplo BMT for patients with hematologic malignancies (median age, 61 years), evaluating the safety of early discontinuation of tacrolimus. All patients received T cell-replete bone marrow followed by high-dose PTCy, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus. Tacrolimus was prespecified to stop without taper at day +90, +60, or +120, contingent on having ?5% donor T cells, no relapse, and no grade II-IV acute or significant chronic GVHD. Safety stopping rules were based on ?5% graft failure, ?10% nonrelapse mortality (NRM), or a ?20% combined incidence of severe acute and chronic GVHD from the tacrolimus stop date through day +180. Of the 47 patients in the day +90 arm, 23 (49%) stopped tacrolimus as planned. Of the 55 patients in the day +60 arm, 38 (69%) stopped as planned. Safety stopping criteria were not met. In both arms, at day +180, the probability of grade II-IV acute GVHD was <40%, that of grade III-IV acute GVHD was <8%, and that of NRM was <5%. The 1-year probabilities of chronic GVHD and NRM were <15% and <10%, respectively, in both arms. The 1-year GVHD-free relapse-free survival was higher in the day 60 arm. Thus, stopping tacrolimus as early as day +60 is feasible and carries acceptable risks after NMA haplo BMT with PTCy. This approach may facilitate post-transplantation strategies for relapse reduction.

Dysfunction of bone marrow vascular niche in acute graft-versus-host disease after MHC-haploidentical bone marrow transplantation.

Project description:Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGvHD) is the most common complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), which is often accompanied by impaired hematopoietic reconstitution. Sinusoidal endothelial cells (SECs) constitute bone marrow (BM) vascular niche that plays an important role in supporting self-renewal capacity and maintaining the stability of HSC pool. Here we provide evidences that vascular niche is a target of aGvHD in a major histocompatibility complex (MHC)-haploidentical matched murine HSCT model. The results demonstrated that hematopoietic cells derived from GvHD mice had the capacity to reconstitute hematopoiesis in healthy recipient mice. However, hematopoietic cells from healthy donor mice failed to reconstitute hematopoiesis in GvHD recipient mice, indicating that the BM niche was impaired by aGvHD in this model. We further demonstrated that SECs were markedly reduced in the BM of aGvHD mice. High level of Fas and caspase-3 expression and high rate of apoptosis were identified in SECs, indicating that SECs were destroyed by aGvHD in this murine HSCT model. Furthermore, high Fas ligand expression on engrafted donor CD4(+), but not CD8(+) T cells, and high level MHC-II but not MHC-I expression on SECs, suggested that SECs apoptosis was mediated by CD4(+) donor T cells through the Fas/FasL pathway.

Outcomes of Bone Marrow Compared to Peripheral Blood for Haploidentical Transplantation.

Project description:Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) from a haploidentical (haplo) donor has emerged as a suitable alternative in the absence of a matched donor. However, haplo-HCT patients have a higher risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Hence, bone marrow (BM) stem cell source and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) have been routinely used to help mitigate this. Due to ease of collection, peripheral blood (PB) stem cells are increasingly being considered for haplo-HCT. We retrospectively analyzed 74 patients (42 BM and 32 PB) who underwent haplo-HCT at Ohio State University from 2009 to 2018. Median age at transplant was 60 years (yrs) for BM and 54 yrs for PB, (p = 0.45). There was no difference in OS (p = 0.13) and NRM (p = 0.75) as well as PFS (p = 0.10) or GRFS (p = 0.90) between the groups. The BM cohort showed a 3-year OS rate of 63% (95% confidence interval (CI): 46-76), and 3-year PFS of 49% (95% CI: 33-63). For the PB group, 3-year OS and PFS were 78% (95% CI: 59-89) and 68% (95% CI: 49-82), respectively. There were no differences in the incidence of acute GVHD (grade II-IV) (p = 0.31) and chronic GVHD (p = 0.18). Patients receiving BM had a significantly higher risk for relapse with relapse rates by 2 years at 36% (95% CI: 22-50) vs. 16% (95% CI: 6-31) for PB (p = 0.03). The findings from this study suggest that PB is an excellent alternative to BM for haplo-HCT.
