Nonmyeloablative pretransplantation conditioning regimens have resulted in durable engraftment of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells. In contrast to conventional fully myeloablative approaches, nonmyeloablative regimens are associated with a marked reduction of morbidity and mortality in the early posttransplantation period. Consequently, such reduced-intensity transplantation approaches can be used in older and frailer patients who would not tolerate fully ablative regimens. However, it is currently unclear how this radically different transplantation strategy affects immunological reconstitution. To address this important issue, we used T-cell receptor Vbeta spectratype analysis to examine the distribution of complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3)-size bands as a measure of the complexity of the redeveloping T-cell repertoire. For this study, we evaluated the T-cell repertoire of 9 patients receiving T-cell replete, matched unrelated donor transplants following fully ablative or nonmyeloablative conditioning regimens. All 4 of the myeloablative and 2 of the nonmyeloablative patients received bone marrow, whereas 3 other nonmyeloablative patients received peripheral blood stem cells. The results of the spectratype analysis demonstrated that the patients who received nonmyeloablative conditioning together with either bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells exhibited more rapid reconstitution of T-cell repertoire complexity. 相似文献

T-cell reconstitution following allogeneic stem cell transplantation may involve thymic education of donor-derived precursors or peripheral expansion of mature T cells transferred in the graft. T cell-receptor excision circles (sjTRECs) are generated within the thymus and identify new thymic emigrants and those that have not divided. We measured quantitative and qualitative immunologic reconstitution and sjTREC levels in adult and pediatric recipients of umbilical cord blood transplants (UCBTs). sjTRECs were detected at normal levels in all children, starting 12 months after transplantation. sjTRECs were not detected until 18 months after transplantation in adults, and then only at a 3-fold lower level than expected for age. We used complementarity-determining region 3 (CDR3) spectratyping to measure changes in T cell-receptor diversity occurring with restoration of thymic function. T-cell repertoires were skewed in adults and children at 12 to 18 months after transplantation but recovered to near-normal diversity at 2 to 3 years post-UCBT. T-cell repertoires appeared more diverse earlier in children (at 1 to 2 years post-UCBT) than in adults (at 3 to 4 years post-UCBT). We conclude that early T-cell recovery after UCBT occurs primarily through peripheral expansion of adoptively transferred donor T cells and results in skewing of the T-cell repertoire. The reappearance of sjTREC-containing cells after UCBT is associated with increasing numbers of phenotypicaly naive T cells, improved mitogen and recall antigen responses, and diversification of the T-cell repertoire. The delay in central T-cell recovery in adults relative to children may be due to differences in thymic function resulting from age-related atrophy, graft-versus-host disease, or the pharmacologic effects of prophylaxis and treatment of graft-versus-host disease. 相似文献

Infections are a common complication of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation and the leading cause of transplantation-related mortality. It had been hypothesized that transplantation following nonmyeloablative preparative regimens would result in fewer infections by causing less mucosal injury, less graft-versus-host disease, and allowing earlier immune reconstitution. We have retrospectively reviewed the infectious complications of 65 consecutive patients with advanced hematologic malignancies who underwent bone marrow transplantation using a novel preparative regimen consisting of cyclophosphamide, thymic irradiation, and in vivo T-cell depletion. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection occurred in 52% of cases in which the donor or recipient had evidence of prior CMV exposure. Using a strategy of preemptive therapy and secondary prophylaxis with ganciclovir, no CMV disease occurred. Infections with gram-positive bacteria predominated over the first 100 days after bone marrow transplantation. Thereafter, the relative proportion of gram-negative infections increased without a significant increase in episodes of neutropenia. The rate of bacterial infections was not influenced by relapse of the underlying malignancy. Seven patients developed infections with Aspergillus species, which was the most common infectious cause of death in these patients. Infections with viruses other than CMV (n=10) and with protozoan organisms (n=2) also occurred. The use of HLA-mismatched donors, the occurrence of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease, and treatment with corticosteroids did not influence the risk of CMV or bacterial or fungal infections in patients who underwent transplantation following this preparative regimen. Overall, the incidence and spectrum of infections in this series was similar to the reported incidence of infections following conventional myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation. We conclude that a quantitative T-cell deficiency in these extensively T-cell depleted patients may be a risk factor for infection, even in the absence of graft-versus-host disease. 相似文献

Thymus-dependent T-cell regeneration is a major pathway for immune reconstitution after stem cell transplantation in children. Therefore, we prospectively assessed T-cell dynamics and thymic function in 164 pediatric patients between 1 and 124 months after transplantation by measuring T-cell receptor recombination excision circles and spontaneous expression of Ki67 in peripheral T-cell subsets. We analyzed the effect of recipient age, conditioning regimen, type of donor and graft, stem cell dose, and graft-versus-host disease on the onset and the plateau of thymic output. A high rate of spontaneous proliferation in early-reconstituting naive and memory T cells inversely correlated with total T-cell numbers. Accordingly, T-cell receptor recombination excision circle content was diminished in early-appearing naive T cells. A multivariate analysis revealed that the onset of thymic recovery was inversely correlated only with recipient age ( P < .0002), whereas the plateau of thymic output was higher in patients receiving increased stem cell numbers ( P < .0022). Donor type, stem cell source, and conditioning regimen influenced none of the analyzed parameters. In conclusion, lymphopenia-driven proliferation is important for T-cell homeostasis in children early after stem cell transplantation, but it might result in underestimation of thymic function. Onset and plateau of thymic activity are independently regulated by different transplant-related factors. 相似文献

Haematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the treatment of choice for severe primary immunodeficiencies, but only has moderate prognosis in Omenn syndrome as it is complicated by highly activated Omenn T-cells resulting in delayed T-cell engraftment and a high rate of graft failure. A 6 1/2 months old patient with a previously unknown compound heterozygous defect within the RAG1 gene (R474C; R975W) underwent 8/10 HLA-matched cord blood transplantation after myeloablative conditioning. Immune reconstitution was impressive with T-, B- and NK-cells reaching the median of age-dependent reference values within twelve, four and two months respectively. With a continuous decrease of activated Omenn T-cells there was a steady increase of naive, probably thymus-derived T-cells. Polyclonal B-cell activation and hypergammaglobulinaemia disappeared with B-cell engraftment. This case emphasizes that, despite their naive status and HLA-barriers, cord blood T-cells were apparently able to achieve T-effector function resulting in the elimination of all activated Omenn T-cells. 相似文献

Immunodeficiency after peripheral blood progenitor cell (PBPC) transplantation may be influenced by graft composition, underlying disease, and/or pre-treatment. These factors are difficult to study independently in humans. Ex vivo culture and genetic manipulation of PBPC grafts may also affect immune reconstitution, with relevance to gene therapy applications. We directly compared the effects of three clinically relevant autologous graft compositions on immune reconstitution after myeloblative total body irradiation in rhesus macaques, the first time these studies have been performed in a large animal model with direct clinical relevance. Animals received CD34(+) cell dose-matched grafts of either peripheral blood mononuclear cells, purified CD34(+) PBPCs, or purified CD34(+) PBPCs expanded in vitro and retrovirally transduced. We evaluated the reconstitution of T, B, natural killer, dendritic cells, and monocytes in blood and lymph nodes for up to 1 year post-transplantation. Animals receiving selected-transduced CD34(+) cells had the fastest recovery of T-cell numbers, along with the highest T-cell-receptor gene rearrangement excision circles levels, the fewest proliferating Ki-67(+) T-cells in the blood, and the best-preserved thymic architecture. Selected-transduced CD34(+) cells may therefore repopulate the thymus more efficiently and promote a higher output of na?ve T-cells. These results have implications for the design of gene therapy trials, as well as for the use of expanded PBPCs for improved T-cell immune reconstitution after transplantation. 相似文献

Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) was performed previously in adults using a nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen and bone marrow as a graft source. In an effort to reduce relapse rates, myeloablative conditioning regimens with higher intensities are now used. We used an intensive daily pharmacokinetic monitoring method for busulfan dosing in children for effective myeloablation and to reduce toxicity. Here, we report the retrospective results of 34 patients (median age 11.1 years) who underwent haplo-HSCT with PTCy using a targeted busulfan-based myeloablative conditioning regimen and peripheral blood as a stem cell source. The donor-type neutrophil engraftment rate was 97.1%, and the cumulative incidence rates of grade II to IV and grade III to IV acute and extensive chronic graft-versus-host disease were 38.2%, 5.9%, and 9.1%, respectively. The overall survival and event-free survival rates, and treatment-related mortality were 85.0%, 79.4%, and 2.9%, respectively. Based on the subgroup analysis of patients with malignancies (n?=?23), the relapse incidence rate was 21.7%. Haplo-HSCT using PTCy with targeted busulfan-based myeloablative conditioning and peripheral blood as a stem cell source was a safe and promising therapeutic option for children. 相似文献

Lung function decline is a well-recognized occurrence after myeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) that has not been studied after nonmyeloablative conditioning regimens. We examined the lung function of patients before and after 2-Gy total body irradiation-based nonmyeloablative and myeloablative preparative regimens. Before HCT, at day 100, and 1 year after HCT, nonmyeloablative patients had lower 1-second forced expiratory volume (FEV1), forced vital capacity, total lung capacity, residual volume, and carbon monoxide diffusion capacity. However, after transplantation, the risk for experiencing a >20% per year decrease of FEV 1 was significantly lower for nonmyeloablative than myeloablative patients >50 years of age (odds ratio, 0.3; 95% confidence interval, 0.1-0.8; P = .01). Lower pretransplantation FEV 1 was associated with a higher mortality rate for both groups, with the highest mortality risk among patients with a pretransplantation FEV 1 <60% (nonmyeloablative: hazard ratio, 3.9; 95% confidence interval, 1.9-8.0; myeloablative: hazard ratio, 7.2; 95% confidence interval, 2.5-21.2). These results suggest that despite having worse lung function, patients who receive the 2-Gy total body irradiation-based nonmyeloablative regimen will likely experience less pulmonary toxicity than patients who receive a myeloablative regimen, and this may have important clinical implications when deciding on a conditioning regimen for patients >50 years of age with compromised pretransplantation lung function. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate B-lymphocyte reconstitution in patients undergoing allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after myeloablative conditioning (MAC) or reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens. B-lymphocyte reconstitution was studied by monitoring the CDR3 repertoire with spectratyping. We demonstrate a delay in the recovery of the B-lymphocyte repertoire, measured by variation in size distribution of the immunoglobulin H CDR3 in patients conditioned with RIC compared to MAC. We found no general explanation for this finding, but when clinical data for each patient were studied in detail, we could identify a cause for the oligoclonality of the B-lymphocyte repertoire after HSCT with RIC for each of the patients. Older patients and donors, low cell dose at transplantation, relapse, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and its treatment as well as cytomegalovirus infection and its treatment are all possible causes for the restriction of the B-lymphocyte repertoire observed in this study. Taken together, reconstitution of the B-lymphocyte repertoire after HSCT is a process dependent on multiple factors and differs between patients. The conditioning regimen may be of importance, but data from this study suggest that individual factors and the various complications occurring after HSCT are more likely to determine the development of the B-lymphocyte repertoire. 相似文献

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated lymphoproliferative disorder (EBV-LPD) following bone marrow transplantation can be fatal. The major risk factors for the development of EBV-LPD are ex vivo T-cell depletion or in vivo T-cell depletion with either antithymocyte globulin (ATG) or monoclonal anti-T-cell antibodies. Between March 1999 and January 2001, a total of 23 transplants with ATG of equine source (20 transplants) and ATG of rabbit source (3 transplants) used as part of the preparatory regimen were performed at the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute in Detroit, Mich. The three patients who received rabbit ATG developed EBV-LPD between 60 and 90 days following bone marrow transplantation. However, there were no cases of EBV-LPD in the equine group. Treatment given in these cases consisted of tapering immunosuppression, antiviral therapy, unprocessed donor lymphocyte infusion, mobilized peripheral blood progenitor cell rescue infusion (one patient), and chemotherapy (one patient). All three patients died of complications from EBV-LPD. The association of rabbit ATG with the development of EBV-LPD suggests that patients receiving rabbit ATG as part of their preparatory regimens require close monitoring of the EBV viral load and possible early intervention with antiviral therapy. 相似文献

We reviewed 136 patients with advanced acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing allogeneic transplantation to assess the impact of conditioning regimen intensity on outcome. Thirty-nine patients receiving nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST) were compared with 97 patients receiving myeloablative transplantation. Patients receiving NST were at high risk for treatment-related complications given that they were older, 57 vs 43 years (P < .001), and more likely had received previous or myeloablative transplantation (54% vs 2%; P < .0001). The cumulative risk of relapse was higher for patients after NST (61% vs 38%; P = .02). The 100-day mortality was less after NST (15% vs 32%) Overall survival (OS) at 2 years was 28% for NST and 34% for myeloablative transplantation (P = .89). Progression-free survival (PFS) at 2 years was 20% for NST and 31% for myeloablative transplantation (P = .31). Cox regression analysis showed that the intensity of the conditioning regimen had no effect on either OS or PFS. Despite the high-risk features of patients with advanced AML or MDS undergoing NST, OS and PFS in these patients was similar to those in patients receiving myeloablative transplantation. These results demonstrate that dose intensity plays a significant role in control of disease after transplantation, but that this benefit is negated by increasing treatment-related mortality. These results suggest that NST is a reasonable alternative for patients with advanced AML and MDS at high risk for complications after myeloablative transplantation. 相似文献

Umbilical Cord Blood Transplantation in Severe T-Cell Immunodeficiency Disorders: Two-Year Experience 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the treatment of choice for severe primary T-cell immunodeficiencies. When an HLA-identical sibling as the donor is not available, an alternative donor stem cell source is needed. In primary T-cell immunodeficiencies, T-cell-depleted HLA-haploidentical bone marrow transplantation has been particularly successful in reconstituting the immune system in many but not all of the severe T-cell immune deficiency disorders. This study reports the use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) stem cell transplantation in severe T-cell immune deficiency.Umbilical cord blood was evaluated as a stem cell source for immune reconstitution in children with severe primary T-cell immunodeficiency disorders, such as severe combined immunodeficiency syndrome (SCID), reticular dysgenesis, thymic dysplasia, combined immunodeficiency disease (CID), and Wiskott–Aldrich syndrome (WAS) when a matched sibling donor was unavailable. From 1/96 through 5/98, eight children received unrelated cord blood stem cell transplantation following a preparative regimen for the treatment of combined immunodeficiency diseases. The patients ranged in age from 2 weeks to 8 years. The cord blood units were 3/6 HLA antigen matches in two children, 4/6 in four children, and 5/6 in two child, with molecular HLA-DR mismatch in three of the children. The average time for neutrophil engraftment (absolute neutrophil count >500/mm3) was 12 days (range 10–15 days) and the average time for platelet engraftment (platelet count >20,000/mm3) was 36 days (range 24–50 days). A patient with reticular dysgenesis failed to engraft following her first transplant, but fully engrafted after a second unrelated donor cord blood transplantation. Five of six patients exhibited grade I graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), while one child had grade IV skin and gut GvHD. Immunologic reconstitution demonstrated that cord blood stem cell transplantation resulted in consistent and stable T-, B- and natural killer (NK) cell development. The kinetics of development were such that T-cell development occurred between 60 to 100 days. Initial T-cell engraftment consisted predominantly of CD45RO+, CD3+, and CD4+ T cells, and at 12 to 24 months changed to CD45RA+, CD3+, and CD4+ T cells, indicatingde novomaturation of T cells. NK cell development occurred at approximately 180 days. B cells engrafted early, and study of functional B-cell antibody responses revealed that five of six patients in whom intravenous immune globulin has been discontinued have low detectable antibody responses to tetanus and diphtheria toxoid immunizations at 18 to 24 months posttransplantation.Unrelated umbilical donor cord blood is an alternative source of stem cells for transplantation in children with severe T-cell immune deficiency disorders when a suitable HLA-matched donor is not available and when a T-depleted haploidentical preparation is not beneficial. Benefits of UCB include rapid and reliable recovery of immune function, low risk of GvHD, and low viral transmission rate. 相似文献

Human dendritic cells (DC) comprise 2 subsets-plasmacytoid CD123(+) and myeloid CD11c(+) DC-that may have distinct roles in the regulation of immunity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this study, we analyzed the kinetics of CD123(+) DC and CD11c(+) DC reconstitution in 31 patients who underwent transplantation with allogeneic granulocyte colony-stimulating factor-mobilized peripheral blood (PB) stem cells from HLA-identical sibling donors after myeloablative conditioning. Lineage marker-negative HLA-DR(+) CD11c(+) CD11c(+) DC and lineage marker-negative HLA-DR(+) CD123(+) CD123(+) DC, as well as monocytes and lymphoid subsets, were enumerated in donor grafts and in the PB of patients at various time points after transplantation. Reconstitution of both CD11c(+) DC and CD123(+) DC to normal levels occurred within 6 to 12 months and was not affected by the diagnosis, preparatory regimen, or graft composition. However, PB CD11c(+) DC and CD123(+) DC counts were significantly reduced in patients with acute GVHD grade II to IV (at 1 and 3 months) and grade I (at 1 month). Patients with chronic GVHD instead showed reduced CD123(+) DC counts only 6 months after transplantation. Moreover, treatment with steroids (>0.1 mg/kg) was significantly associated with reduced PB CD11c(+) DC and CD123(+) DC counts at all time points after transplantation. In multivariate analysis, only acute GVHD affected DC reconstitution early after transplantation. These results will prompt new studies addressing whether DC reconstitution correlates with immunity against infectious agents or with graft-versus-tumor reactions after PB stem cell allotransplantation. 相似文献

The progression of 'naive' and 'memory' T-cells and the T-cell receptor Vbeta (TCR Vbeta) repertoire dynamics within the peripheral CD4+ T-cell compartment were studied in individuals following HIV seroconversion. Profound TCR Vbeta repertoire perturbations were observed within the CD4+ T-cell pool in treatment-naive patients regardless of their levels of viremia during the first 6-8 months after seroconversion. The ratio of 'naive' to 'memory' CD4+ T-cells as well as the TCR Vbeta repertoire dynamics did not appear to correlate with absolute numbers of CD4 T-cells. 相似文献

Treatment of Leukemia by Alloreactive Lymphocytes and Nonmyeloablative Stem Cell Transplantation 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Allogeneic bone marrow or blood stem cell transplantation (BMT) represents an important therapeutic tool for treatment of otherwise incurable malignant and nonmalignant diseases, especially acute and chronic leukemias. Until recently, myeloablative regimens were considered mandatory for effective eradication of all malignant cells of host origin. Our preclinical and ongoing clinical studies indicated that eradication of host immunohematopoietic cells, including chemoradiotherapy-resistant leukemia, could be achieved by adoptive allogeneic cell therapy with donor lymphocyte infusion following induction of host-versus-graft transplantation tolerance mediated by engraftment of donor stem cells in the course of BMT. Thus, eradication of blood cancer cells, especially in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia and less frequently in patients with other hematologic malignancies, could be frequently accomplished despite complete resistance of such tumor cells to maximally tolerated doses of chemoradiotherapy. Our cumulative experience suggested that graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effects might be a useful tool for both treatment and prevention of relapse. Based on the aforementioned rationale, we speculated that the therapeutic benefit of BMT may be improved by using a safer conditioning as part of the transplant procedure, with the goal in mind to induce host-versus-graft tolerance to enable subsequent induction of GVL effects rather than attempt to eliminate host cells with hazardous myeloablative chemoradiotherapy. The latter hypothesis suggested that effective BMT procedure may be accomplished without lethal conditioning of the host, using a new well-tolerated nonmyeloablative regimen, thus possibly minimizing immediate and late side effects related to myeloablative procedures considered until recently mandatory for conditioning of BMT recipients. Recent clinical observations suggest that effective treatment of leukemia may be accomplished with a well-tolerated nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST) regimen, while avoiding immediate and late toxicity and minimizing procedure-related mortality. Taken together, our cumulative data suggest that high-dose chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be successively replaced by a more effective biological tool—alloreactive donor lymphocytes—thus setting the stage for innovative immunotherapeutic procedures for more selective and effective treatment of patients in need of BMT, including those resistant to conventional chemoradiotherapy. 相似文献

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a complex and costly procedure. Unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) is an alternative graft source for patients without matched related donors (MRD); however, costs of UCB HCT have not been described. We compared the costs of HCT within the first 100 days among recipients of MRD (myeloablative = 67, nonmyeloablative = 54) or UCB (myeloablative = 63, nonmyeloablative = 110) HCT. Cost and hospitalization data were obtained from the institutional accounting department. The 100-day probabilities of overall survival (OS) and cumulative incidence of treatment-related mortality (TRM) were comparable among 4 transplant types; however, neutrophil recovery was delayed and graft failure was more likely in UCB recipients. The median cost per day survived (excluding costs of graft acquisition) was $1016 for myeloablative MRD, $2082 for myeloablative UCB, $612 for nonmyeloablative MRD, and $1156 for nonmyeloablative UCB recipients, respectively (P < .001). In multivariate analysis, adjusting for important patient, disease, and HCT-related characteristics, as well as major post-HCT complications, factors associated with higher costs within the first 100 days were myeloablative UCB HCT (relative risk 1.3 [95% confidence intervals, 1.1-1.5] versus myeloablative MRD HCT), graft failure (1.8 [1.7-1.9]), need for dialysis (1.3 [1.1-1.5]) or mechanical ventilation (1.3 [1.2-1.4]) and total hospital stay in the highest tertile (>48 days; 2.1 [1.9-2.3]). The median cost per day survived for patients with graft failure was $6976 (versus $1105 for no graft failure), dialysis was $4764 (versus $1102 for no dialysis), and $5099 for mechanical ventilation (versus $977 for no mechanical ventilation). Within the first 100 days, the absolute costs of myeloablative and nonmyeloablative UCB are higher than myeloablative and nonmyeloablative MRD transplantation. These costs are primarily driven by severe posttransplant complications, graft failure, and prolonged inpatient stay. Strategies to enhance engraftment will decrease the costs of UCB transplantation. 相似文献

We have addressed whether patients' immune system status after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, assessed more than 1 year after the procedure, recovers normal function as compared with that of their respective donors. An additional aim was to compare the status of the immune system between patients receiving reduced-intensity conditioning regimens and those undergoing myeloablative transplantations. For this purpose, we analyzed not only the different subsets of peripheral blood (PB) lymphocytes, but also circulating dendritic cell (DC) subpopulations, together with cytokine production by PB T cells, in a series of 38 patients undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation. We compared these patients with their respective HLA-matched donors by performing a simultaneous patient/donor paired study. Complete bone marrow chimerism status and normal PB cell counts were demonstrated in all recipients. The most relevant numeric differences found between patients and donors were related to the distribution of the distinct subsets of PB DCs (CD16+ DCs were increased, whereas myeloid and plasmacytoid DC subsets were decreased in the patient group). This was associated with an increased number of B cells, an inverted CD4/CD8 T-cell ratio, and a decrease in CD4+/CD8+ double-positive T cells in the patient group. In addition, a predominance of a T-helper 1 pattern of cytokine production (interferon gamma and tumor necrosis factor alpha) with decreased secretion of T-helper 2-associated cytokines (interleukin 5 and interleukin 10) was also observed at the single-cell level. No significant differences were found in any of the parameters analyzed between patients receiving reduced-intensity conditioning regimens and those undergoing myeloablative transplantations. 相似文献

Despite clinical advances, late onset pulmonary complications in adult recipients of allogenic stem cell transplantation are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Reported incidence and risk factors in the literature vary broadly and are partly contradictory. Identification of pretransplant factors associated with major complications would be helpful to define individual treatment strategies and early initiation of preventive measures.To evaluate incidence and risk factors of late onset noninfectious pulmonary complications, with special regard to small airways disease (SAD) and bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS), indicating graft-versus-host disease, following myeloablative versus nonmyeloablative allogenic stem cell transplantation.We reviewed the clinical records and assessed the course of lung function and pulmonary complications in adults who underwent allogenic stem cell transplantation for hematological malignancies between 1999 and 2015 using nonmyeloablative (n?=?179) or myeloablative (n?=?130) conditioning at the Division of Hematology of the Medical University of Graz. All patients underwent body plethysmography pulmonary function test (PFT), diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide, and arterial blood gas analysis before and repeatedly after transplant. SAD was defined as maximal expiratory flow at 50% and 25% of forced vital capacity <70% predicted.Ventilatory disorders and gas transfer abnormalities were common before and after allogenic stem cell transplantation, independent of conditioning regimen. SAD was common in the nonmyeloablative (34%) and myeloablative (29%) groups. The 100-day post-transplant mortality was significantly associated with reduced pretransplant total lung capacity <80%. Mortality 100 days post-transplant was significantly associated with pretransplant SAD and a pretransplant smoking history. In this subset, a smoking history was independently associated with increased mortality, with a 5-year mortality of 45% compared with 26% in never-smokers. Pretransplant SAD was not predictive for the later development of BOS.Smoking history, pretransplant restrictive PFT, and pre-existing SAD are important risk factors for death following allogenic stem cell transplantation. However, pretransplant SAD is not a predictor of long-term complications, including BOS. 相似文献

T cells play an important role in the adaptive immune system. After haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), T-cell function is impaired. This is reflected by the emergence of opportunistic infections, infections that are often difficult to treat because of the patient's insufficient immune function. T-cell receptor reconstitution was studied using CDR3 spectratyping to analyze the diversity of the T-cell repertoire at 3, 6 and 12 months after myeloablative and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) HSCT in 23 patients. Immune function in vitro was tested by lymphocyte stimulation at 3, 6 and 12 months after HSCT. Lower diversity in the CDR3 repertoire was demonstrated in CD4+ cells after RIC HSCT at 3 and 6 months and in CD8+ cells at 3 months compared with healthy donors. After myeloablative HSCT, lower diversity was seen at 3, 6 and 12 months in CD4+ cells and at 6 and 12 months in CD8+ cells after HSCT. Acute and chronic graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) did not affect diversity. Responses to phytohaemagglutinin (PHA), Concanavalin A (Con A) and Staphylococcus aureus protein A were significantly lower compared with healthy donors during the first 6 months after RIC HSCT. After myeloablative HSCT, lymphocyte response to Con A was significantly lower at 3 months compared with healthy donors. Decreased responses to cytomegalovirus and varicella zoster virus antigens were seen in patients suffering from acute GVHD grade II or chronic GVHD. The T-cell repertoire is skewed under the first year after HSCT, and immune reconstitution after HSCT with myeloablative and RIC conditioning seems to be comparable. GVHD, infections and age are more important for immune reconstitution than type of conditioning. 相似文献

A young boy with a confirmed complete DiGeorge Syndrome (cDGS) underwent a peripheral blood mononuclear cell transplantation (PBMCT) from his HLA-identical sister at 4.5 years of age, without a conditioning regimen. Eight years later, he is healthy with good immunological functions in the presence of a stable mixed T-cell chimerism. Absence of recent thymic emigrants is confirmed. We observe an inverted CD4+/CD8+ ratio, related to the CD8 subset expansion, a skewing of the TCR repertoire, especially on the CD8+ subset and a telomere loss on the CD8+ cells compared to the donor. However, these anomalies do not seem to have an impact on functional immunity. PBMCT in cDGS using an HLA-matched sibling donor provides good long-lasting immunity and is an easy alternative to bone marrow transplantation and to thymic transplantation. 相似文献
