Veno-occlusive disease (VOD) of the liver is a well-recognized serious complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), with few successful treatment modalities available for severe disease. Some reports have demonstrated success in adults with the use of high-dose steroid therapy, but experience in the pediatric population is lacking. We retrospectively reviewed HSCT patients treated at our institution since 2003 and identified 15 (2.4%) who developed VOD. Of these, nine (60%) were treated with intravenous high-dose methylprednisolone (500 mg/m2 per dose every 12 hours for six doses). Steroid therapy was initiated at or before first ultrasound evidence of reversal of portal venous flow and before meeting criteria for initiation of defibrotide therapy. Four patients were also treated with defibrotide starting 2 to 5 days after initiation of steroids. Eight of nine patients (88%) with VOD were diagnosed with multiorgan failure. Response to high-dose steroid therapy as defined by decrease in bilirubin by 50% in 10 days from therapy initiation was noted in six of nine patients (67%), occurring within 3 to 6 days of steroid therapy. Two patients died from multiorgan failure due to VOD. Seven survivors of VOD recovered at the median 6 days (range, 5 to 38) from VOD diagnosis. Overall, VOD survival as a group was 78%; however, survival among responders was 100%. No serious toxicities related to high-dose steroid therapy were observed. We conclude that high-dose steroid therapy if initiated early may reverse VOD of the liver in pediatric HSCT patients, abrogating the need for defibrotide therapy with its associated toxicities and regulatory difficulties. 相似文献

Veno-occlusive disease (VOD) of the liver occurs in 10% to 50% of patients after allogeneic stem cell transplantation, ranging from mild reversible disease to severe disease, with a mortality rate almost always close to 100%. Recently, promising results in the treatment of established VOD with defibrotide were reported. Therefore, defibrotide may be used as a prophylactic regimen for hepatic VOD in stem cell transplantation for hematologic malignancies. Fifty-two successive patients who underwent transplantation between October 1999 and June 2002 received defibrotide prophylaxis intravenously from day -7 to day +20 after transplantation in addition to heparin and were compared with historical controls who underwent transplantation successively between February 1997 and September 1999. In the defibrotide group, the maximum total bilirubin levels and the number of patients with serum levels exceeding 50 micromol/L were significantly lower than in the control group (5 of 52 versus 18 of 52, respectively; P =.004). None of the 52 patients developed VOD (Baltimore criteria), and no side effects occurred. These results were significantly different (P =.001) from controls (10/52 [19%] with VOD, 3 of whom died of severe VOD). In addition, day 100 event-free survival was significantly higher in the study group (P =.02), with a trend toward better day 100 overall survival (P =.07). These results suggest that defibrotide given in addition to heparin may be an efficient prophylaxis for VOD. 相似文献

Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), also known as hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), is a serious complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). SOS/VOD usually occurs within 3 weeks of HSCT, but the 2016 European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation diagnosis criteria have been revised to include late forms. Prophylactic use of defibrotide is recommended in the pediatric setting, but its value remains uncertain in the adult population. We report here a single-center series of 63 adult patients considered at high risk for SOS/VOD who received defibrotide prophylaxis in combination with ursodeoxycholic acid between May 2012 and August 2016. The median duration of defibrotide therapy was 23 days. Bleeding occurred in 14 patients (21.5%). Defibrotide prophylaxis was discontinued in 7 patients (10.8%): 4 cases (6.3%) due to bleeding and 3 cases (4.6%) because of the need for antithrombotic therapy. Overall, SOS/VOD occurred in 4 cases (6.3%) within 21 days after HSCT (days 13 and 14) in 2 cases and late-onset SOS/VOD (days 57 and 58) in the other 2 cases. SOS/VOD was moderate in 1 case, very severe in 3 cases, with 2 deaths related to SOS/VOD. Cumulative incidence of grades II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease and transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy were 22.2% and 3.2%, respectively. With a median follow-up of 31 months (range, 10.7 to 60.3), the rates of 2-year overall survival, progression-free survival, incidence of relapse, and nonrelapse mortality were 56.5%, 49%, 28.7%, and 22.3%, respectively. In our experience defibrotide prophylaxis is associated with a low incidence of SOS/VOD after allogeneic HSCT in a high-risk adult population with an acceptable safety profile. 相似文献

Studies investigating the effect of prophylactic drugs on hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) development are rare in children that have undergone allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This study examined risk factors for VOD, the effect of prophylactic low-dose heparin or lipo-prostaglandin E1 (lipo-PGE1) and the survival rate at day +100 in children undergoing allogeneic HSCT. Eighty five children underwent HSCT between June 1997 and September 2004. Patients were diagnosed and classified as having mild, moderate or severe VOD according to Seattle clinical criteria. Among 85 patients, 25 (29%) developed VOD. VOD occurred more frequently in patients receiving busulfan-based conditioning (24/65, 37%) than in those receiving TBI-based (1/10, 10%) or other (0/10, 0%) regimens (p<0.05). The incidence of VOD was lower in patients with non-malignant disease compared to those with malignant disease (p<0.05). Survival at day +100 for non-VOD patients was better than that for VOD patients (92% vs. 76%, p<0.05). No patients receiving prophylactic heparin or lipo-PGE1 were found to develop severe VOD, whereas 5 of 35 patients not receiving such prophylaxis developed severe VOD. Given severe VOD is associated with a high mortality rate, this study indicates that prophylactic heparin or lipo-PGE1 may decrease mortality in children undergoing HSCT. 相似文献

Hepatic veno-occlusive disease or sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) is a threatening complication after both autologous and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), with high mortality rates despite early medical treatment, including the use of defibrotide (DF). We retrospectively analyzed 185 unmanipulated haploidentical (haplo-) HSCT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide as graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis performed consecutively between 2011 and June 2019 in a single center. Seventeen patients (9.2%) were diagnosed with VOD/SOS. Based on revised European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation severity criteria, the VOD/SOS cases were classified as mild in 2 patients (11.7%), moderate in 2 (11.7%), severe in 2 (11.7%), and very severe in 11 (64.9%). Thirteen patients (76%) were treated with DF, including all patients with severe or very severe VOD/SOS, except 1 patient with CNS hemorrhage. Sixteen patients (94%) were alive at day +100 after HSCT. Seven patients (41%) with very severe VOD/SOS were treated with transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) owing to rapid clinical or analytical deterioration or refractory hepatorenal syndrome despite medical treatment, including DF. TIPS insertion was performed at a median time since VOD/SOS diagnosis of 4 days (range, 1 to 28 days) without technical complications in any case. The median hepatic venous pressure gradient before and after TIPS treatment was 24 mmHg (range, 14 to 29 mmHg) and 7 mmHg (range, 2 to 11 mmHg), respectively, with a median drop of 16 mmHg (range, 9 to 19 mmHg). Following TIPS insertion, all patients showed clinical improvement with hepatomegaly, ascites, and renal failure resolution, and all showed analytical improvement with reduced alanine aminotransferase (ALT), creatinine, and international normalized ratio values, except for patient 2, whose indication for TIPS was refractory hepatorenal syndrome with a normal ALT level. The 6 patients who had initiated DF before TIPS insertion completed 21 days of treatment. All patients met the criteria for complete remission (CR) at a median of 8 days after TIPS insertion (range, 2 to 82 days). The 100-day overall survival was 100%. For patients with rapid progressive VOD/SOS, early TIPS insertion allowed completion of DF therapy. The use of TIPS together with DF resulted in CR and no associated complications with no VOD/SOS-associated mortality despite high severity. In our experience, timely and individualized use of TIPS significantly improves outcomes of very severe VOD/SOS after haplo-HSCT. Therefore, TIPS should be promptly considered in rapidly progressive cases. 相似文献

Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), or sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), is a serious complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with mortality in its severe form exceeding 80%. Although the incidence of VOD/SOS has fallen with contemporary transplantation practices, the increasing use of inotuzumab, the return of gemtuzumab, and the popularity of pharmacokinetic-guided high-dose busulfan may impact incidence. Early intervention with defibrotide improves survival, but prompt diagnosis can be difficult. We aimed to identify clinical parameters that could aid in early detection of VOD/SOS in a large, retrospective, cohort study. Of the 1823 adult patients who underwent myeloablative HSCT between 1996 and 2015 in our center, 205 (11%) developed VOD/SOS, with a median onset of day +14. We compared parameters in the 7 days preceding VOD/SOS onset for cases to 447 randomly selected control subjects in an analogous time frame to determine those with predictive value. Between 7 days before and the day of diagnosis, VOD/SOS patients had higher serum creatinine levels and were more likely to develop acute kidney injury (61% versus 33%, P < .0001), more commonly experienced refractoriness to platelet transfusion (48% versus 24%, P < .0001), and had higher trough serum tacrolimus levels (7 days before VOD/SOS onset: median 8.8 versus 7.3, P?=?.0002; day of onset: median 9.3 versus 7.2, P < .0001) compared with control subjects. Acute renal dysfunction, platelet refractoriness, and elevated or abnormal tacrolimus levels are dynamic clinical markers that should alert clinicians to the development of VOD/SOS before the presence of classical diagnostic criteria. Using these clinical features to recognize VOD/SOS earlier in its clinical course could promote earlier treatment and lead to improved outcomes of this potentially serious complication. 相似文献

Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), also known as veno-occlusive disease (VOD), is a potentially life-threatening complication that may develop after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The aims of this retrospective multicenter study were to evaluate the incidence of SOS/VOD in a large cohort of children transplanted in centers across Italy by applying the new European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) criteria and to analyze the risk factors underlying this complication. We retrospectively reviewed data of pediatric HSCTs performed in 13 AIEOP (Associazione Italiana di Ematologia e Oncologia Pediatrica)-affiliated centers between January 2000 and April 2016. The new pediatric EBMT criteria were retrospectively applied for diagnoses of SOS/VOD and severity grading. Among 5072 transplants considered at risk for SOS/VOD during the study period, 103 children (2%) developed SOS/VOD, and the grade was severe or very severe in all patients. The median time of SOS/VOD occurrence was 17 days after HSCT (range, 1 to 104). Sixty-nine patients (67%) were treated with defibrotide for a median time of 16 days (range, 4 to 104). In multivariable analysis age < 2 years, use of busulfan during the conditioning regimen, female gender, and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis were risk factors statistically associated with the development of SOS/VOD. The overall mortality directly related to SOS/VOD was 15.5%. Overall survival at 1 year was worse in patients with SOS/VOD (P?=?.0033), and this difference disappeared 5 years after HSCT. Nonrelapse mortality was significantly higher 1 and 5 years after transplantation in patients who developed SOS/VOD (P < .001). Based on the application of new EBMT criteria, the overall incidence of SOS/VOD recorded in this large Italian pediatric retrospective study was 2%. Nonrelapse mortality was significantly higher in patients who developed SOS/VOD. Identifying the risk factors associated with SOS/VOD can lead to more effective early treatment strategies of this potentially fatal HSCT complication in childhood. 相似文献

Vitamin D (VD) deficiency is a well-described phenomenon in pediatric patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT). VD modulates inflammation, and deficiency pre-HSCT and at day +100 has been associated with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and poorer survival. However, a paucity of data has specifically described the association between VD status and immune-mediated complications including GVHD and veno-occlusive disease (VOD). Additionally, data to guide recommendations for VD monitoring and supplementation during HSCT are scarce. Our primary objective was to evaluate the association between VD and post-HSCT complications. The key secondary aim was to evaluate the routine use and efficacy of VD monitoring and supplementation practices. To our knowledge, this is the largest study of its kind in the pediatric population. This retrospective study evaluated VD level (VDL) before and 1 year after HSCT, VD supplementation practices, and their association with acute GVHD, VOD, and survival in pediatric patients who received autologous and allogeneic HSCT for both malignant and nonmalignant diseases from January 2013 to April 2018. Of 314 HSCTs, 43% of patients (n = 136) had VDL measured before HSCT; 61% of this cohort had pre-HSCT VD insufficiency (<30 ng/mL). Neither pre-HSCT nor follow-up VDL was associated with the incidence of GVHD or VOD. Supplementation did not result in significantly different post-HSCT VDL.VDL was correlated with overall survival; every 10-ng/mL increase in VDL was associated with a 28% decreased risk of death (P = .01). Current accepted VD supplementation regimens for pediatric HSCT do not achieve sufficient VDL in most patients after HSCT. VD status was associated with all-cause mortality but not with individual comorbidities; prospective studies are required to establish the connection between VD status, inflammatory-mediated HSCT complications, and potential benefit of VD supplementation before and after HSCT. These studies are needed to inform evidence-based guidelines for monitoring and supplementing VD during HSCT. 相似文献

We compared the incidence of refractory thrombocytopenia (RT) and platelet transfusion requirements (PTR) in 35 children who developed veno-occlusive disease (VOD) with 35 matched control subjects who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplant but did not develop VOD. RT developed in 100% of the VOD patients, at a median of 8 days before VOD diagnosis, as compared with 71.5% of the control group. VOD patients required more platelet transfusions than control subjects (median PTR, 6.9 mL/kg [range, .57 to 17.59] versus 3.57 mL/kg [range, 0 to 14.63], respectively) with a statistically significant difference (P < .0001). The number of days with platelet requirements was significantly higher for VOD patients as compared with control subjects (median 68% versus 39%, P =< .0001). The PTR peaked at ~12 mL/kg/day, 2 days before VOD diagnosis, whereas the PTR in the control population was 5 mL/kg/day. The positive predictive value of developing VOD was 88.9% (95% confidence interval, 66.5% to 97%) in patients who were given >7 mL/kg/day of platelets during the at-risk period of days +3 to +13 after transplant. For patients who received >8 mL/kg/day of platelets, the positive predictive value of developing VOD was 86.7% (95% confidence interval, 61.2% to 96.4%). There was no difference in the PTR in patients with mild to moderate VOD as compared with severe VOD; however, the PTR was higher in patients whose VOD did not resolve. The median daily PTR after the diagnosis of VOD in 17 patients who got defibrotide as compared with those who did not get defibrotide was 6.04 mL/kg and 5.72 mL/kg, respectively, but the difference was not statistically significant (P = .56). On univariate and multivariate analysis use of intravenous immunoglobulin was significantly associated with VOD (P = .0088) but was not significantly associated with fatal VOD. In conclusion, RT occurs in 100% of patients at a median of 8 days before VOD diagnosis. VOD should be suspected in any patient with RT after the exclusion of other causes of consumptive thrombocytopenia, especially if they require >7 mL/kg/day of platelets. 相似文献

Veno-occlusive disease (VOD), also known as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), is a life-threatening complication affecting patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The survival rate is higher when specific therapy is initiated early; thus, improving early, noninvasive diagnosis of VOD/SOS is an important need. In an adult population undergoing HSCT, we aimed to assess the role of liver stiffness measurement (LSM), evaluated by transient elastography (TE), for diagnosing VOD/SOS. Between April 2016 and March 2018, 78 consecutive adult patients with indications for allogeneic HSCT were prospectively included. LSM was performed before HSCT and at days +9/10, +15/17, and +22/24 post-HSCT. New European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria were used to establish VOD/SOS diagnosis. Four patients developed VOD/SOS (5.1%) during the study period, with a median time of +17 days post-HSCT. A sudden increase in LSM compared with previously assessed values and pre-HSCT values, was seen in all patients who developed VOD/SOS. LSM increases occurred from 2 to 12 days before clinical SOS/VOD appearance. The VOD/SOS diagnostic performance of increased LSM over pre-HSCT assessment showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.997 (sensitivity 75%; specificity 98.7%). LSM gradually decreased following successful VOD/SOS-specific treatment. Interestingly, LSM values did not increase significantly in patients experiencing hepatobiliary complications (according to the Common Terminology Criteria) other than VOD/SOS. LSM by TE can be considered a promising method to perform an early, preclinical diagnosis and follow-up of VOD/SOS. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence of veno-occlusive disease (VOD) after a high-dose regimen of busulfan, melphalan, and thiotepa and the risk factors for a more severe outcome. We followed 253 consecutive patients with malignant disorders who received autologous transplants after stem cell harvest followed by 12 mg/kg busulfan, 100 mg/m2 melphalan, and 500 mg/m2 thiotepa. Diagnosis of VOD was based on weight gain, hepatomegaly, and jaundice. Risk factors for moderate or severe VOD were identified using logistic regression models. VOD occurred in 70 of 253 patients (28%), of whom 31 (12%) had moderate and 11 (4%) severe VOD. The median day of onset of hyperbilirubinemia was day 9, significantly later than the onset of jaundice after our cyclophosphamide-based regimens (p < 0.001). Resolution of weight gain and jaundice, followed by their reappearance several weeks later, occurred in 23 of 70 patients with VOD and was an adverse prognostic sign. Risk factors for moderate or severe VOD were a diagnosis of lymphoma or myeloma (odds ratio [OR] 2.65 compared with breast cancer), tumor involvement in the liver (OR 3.95), fever in the month before transplant (OR 3.32), and prior radiation therapy (OR 2.70). We conclude that VOD after busulfan, melphalan, and thiotepa was less frequent and less severe and developed later than VOD after our historical cyclophosphamide-based regimens. Significant risk factors included a diagnosis other than breast cancer, hepatic metastases, persistent fever, and prior radiation therapy. This study suggests that alkylating agents of comparable overall toxicity differ in their liver toxicity. 相似文献

Although the prognostic significance of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been researched extensively in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing chemotherapy, its role in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) requires further investigation. The present study evaluated the associations between VEGF level and relapse rate and early complications after HSCT. VEGF levels were analyzed in 91 consecutive patients before the start of conditioning, on day 0, on the day of engraftment, and on the day of diagnosis of veno-occlusive disease (VOD). Compared with a normal level, an elevated high VEGF-A level before conditioning was associated with an increased 2-year relapse rate (55% versus 24%, P = .003; hazard ratio [HR], 3.25; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.49 to 7.08) and decreased event-free survival (20% versus 44%; P = .022; HR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.11 to 3.72). No association was found between VEGF level and the incidence of acute GVHD (P > .05). In patients with VOD, VEGF-A level was elevated on day 0 and on the day of VOD diagnosis (P < .05). A low VEGF-A level on day 0 was associated with reduced nonrelapse mortality (14% versus 35%; P = .048; HR, 0.32; 95% CI, 0.10 to 0.99). Our results indicate that a high VEGF-A level before HSCT increases the risk of relapse, and a high level after conditioning is associated with increased risks of early complications and nonrelapse mortality. 相似文献

Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is often fatal. Standard therapy with high-dose corticosteroid is not always effective. There is paucity of data in the literature about other potentially useful agents, such as aminocaproic acid (Amicar) in the post-transplantation setting. We retrospectively reviewed our data on 115 consecutive patients who underwent HSCT and had pulmonary complications, with the aim of determining the overall clinical outcome in recipients of allogeneic transplants and in the subgroup of these patients who were treated with concomitant Solu-Medrol and aminocaproic acid. Aminocaproic acid was added at the discretion of the attending physician. We identified 14 allogeneic transplant recipients (median age, 41 years) with 15 episodes of DAH who were treated with Solu-Medrol (250 mg to 1 g intravenously per day). Of these, 8 patients also received concomitant aminocaproic acid at 1000 mg intravenously every 6 hours. Failure to improve was the most common reason for adding aminocaproic acid. The incidence of DAH was 12.2% (10.3% in myeloablative versus 1.9% in nonmyeloablative recipients). The overall 100-day DAH mortality and median transplantation survival were 60% and 99 days, respectively. Among the subset of patients treated with the combination of Solu-Medrol and aminocaproic acid, we observed a 100-day DAH mortality and median transplantation survival of 44% and 167 days, respectively, compared with 83% and 96.5 days in those treated with Solu-Medrol alone. The median time to DAH was 40.5 days, and the median time to death was 53 days in the combined treatment group compared with 29.5 days in those treated with steroid alone. There were no significant differences in coagulation parameters between subsets. Infections (yeast, respiratory syncytial virus, herpes simplex virus, and parainfluenza) were isolated and treated from 6 diagnostic bronchial alveolar lavage samples and were more common in the subgroup treated with Solu-Medrol only. Respiratory failure was the documented cause of death in 89% of patients. There were no clinically significant side effects from aminocaproic acid. Although these historically lower DAH outcomes are intriguing, prospective studies are needed to confirm the role of aminocaproic acid in DAH occurring in the allogeneic transplantation setting. 相似文献

Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS)/hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) is a well-documented complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Transabdominal ultrasonography (US) enables the visualization of blood flow abnormalities and is therefore useful for the diagnosis of SOS/VOD. We herein prospectively evaluated accuracy of a novel US diagnostic scoring system of SOS/VOD based on US findings. We carried out US in 106 patients on day 14 and when SOS/VOD was suspected after allogeneic HSCT. Among 106 patients, 10 patients (9.4%) were diagnosed as SOS/VOD by Baltimore or Seattle criteria. According to univariate analysis of 17 US findings (US-17 screening), we established a novel scoring system (HokUS-10) consisting of 10 parameters, such as gallbladder wall thickening, ascites, and blood flow signal in the paraumbilical vein. The sensitivity and specificity were 100% and 95.8%, respectively. Diagnostic performance of the HokUS-10 was significantly better than US-17 screening. In 4 of 10 patients US detection of SOS/VOD preceded to clinical diagnosis. The HokUS-10 scoring system is useful in the diagnosis of SOS/VOD; however, our results should be validated in other cohorts. 相似文献

Intensive chemotherapy for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-associated non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) has resulted in durable remissions in a substantial proportion of patients. High-dose chemotherapy and autologous stem cell transplantation (AuSCT), moreover, has resulted in sustained complete remissions in selected patients with recurrent chemosensitive disease. Based on a favorable experience with dose-reduced high-dose busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and AuSCT for older patients with non-HIV–associated aggressive lymphomas, an AIDS Malignancy Consortium multicenter trial was undertaken using the same dose-reduced busulfan and cyclophosphamide preparative regimen with AuSCT for recurrent HIV-associated NHL and HL. Of the 27 patients in the study, 20 received an AuSCT. The median time to achievement of an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) of ≥ 0.5×109/L was 11 days (range, 9-16 days). The median time to achievement of an unsupported platelet count of ≥ 20×109/L was 13 days (range, 6-57 days). One patient died on day +33 posttransplantation from hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) and multiorgan failure. No other fatal regimen-related toxicity occurred. Ten of 19 patients (53%) were in complete remission at the time of their day +100 post-AuSCT evaluation. Of the 20 patients, 10 were alive and event-free at a median of 23 weeks post-AuSCT. Median overall survival (OS) was not reached by 13 of the 20 patients alive at the time of last follow-up. This multi-institutional trial demonstrates that a regimen of dose-reduced high-dose busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and AuSCT is well tolerated and is associated with favorable disease-free survival (DFS) and OS probabilities for selected patients with HIV-associated NHL and HL. 相似文献

The use of HLA-identical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) demonstrates overall survival rates greater than 75 % for T-B-NK+ severe combined immunodeficiency secondary to pathogenic mutation of recombinase activating genes 1 and 2 (RAG1/2). Limited data exist regarding the use of HSCT in patients with hypomorphic RAG variants marked by greater preservation of RAG activity and associated phenotypes such as granulomatous disease in combination with autoimmunity. We describe a 17-year-old with combined immunodeficiency and immune dysregulation characterized by granulomatous lung disease and autoimmunity secondary to compound heterozygous RAG mutations. A myeloablative reduced toxicity HSCT was completed using an unrelated bone marrow donor. With the increasing cases of immune dysregulation being discovered with hypomorphic RAG variants, the use of HSCT may advance to the forefront of treatment. This case serves to discuss indications of HSCT, approaches to preparative therapy, and the potential complications in this growing cohort of patients with immune dysregulation and RAG deficiency. 相似文献

PurposeThe purpose of this study is to share our outcomes and experiences on allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in elderly patients aged 60 years and older with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in South Korea, and to compare them with other studies.Materials and MethodsWe analyzed the clinical outcomes of 116 patients with AML or MDS aged 60 years and older who underwent allogeneic HSCT. We also analyzed which pretreatment factors affect the overall survival (OS) after allogeneic HSCT.ResultsNeutrophil and platelet engraftment were achieved at median day +11 [interquartile range (IQR) 10–15] and +14 (IQR 11–19), respectively. A complete donor chimerism was confirmed in 65 (56.0%) patients at 3 weeks and in 63 (54.3%) patients at 3 months after HSCT. The estimated incidence of grade II–IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) at day 100 was 13.7%. The estimated incidence of chronic GVHD at 2 years was 38.8%. Within a median follow-up of 14 months after HSCT, OS was 64% at 1 year and 55% at 2 years, and non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 20% at 1 year and 28% at 2 years. Multivariate analysis revealed that male sex and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation-Specific Comorbidity Index ≥3 were associated with poor OS.ConclusionThis study showed that allogeneic HSCT in elderly adults aged 60 and older can be performed with successful engraftment and acceptable NRM and OS are expected given the generally known survival of patients with higher risk MDS and poor risk AML. 相似文献

Veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) is a potentially life-threatening complication of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) that is traditionally diagnosed using Baltimore or modified Seattle criteria. Whereas the Baltimore criteria require the presence of hyperbilirubinemia (bilirubin ≥2 mg/dL) for a diagnosis of VOD/SOS, the modified Seattle criteria do not. Before approval by the US Food and Drug Administration, defibrotide was available in the United States through an expanded-access study (T-IND). The T-IND protocol initially required post-HCT diagnosis of VOD/SOS by the Baltimore criteria or biopsy but was later amended to include patients diagnosed using the modified Seattle criteria. This post hoc analysis examined the incidence of VOD/SOS with a bilirubin level <2 mg/dL before and after Day 21 post-HCT in T-IND patients enrolled following the amendment allowing for diagnosis by the modified Seattle criteria. Survival of adult and pediatric patients with or without hyperbilirubinemia and with or without multiorgan dysfunction (MOD) was also evaluated. Of 803 post-HCT patients with VOD/SOS enrolled following the protocol amendment, 181 (23%) had a bilirubin level <2 mg/dL and would not have been diagnosed if hyperbilirubinemia was required. The bilirubin level at diagnosis was <2 mg/dL in 165 of 331 patients (50%) diagnosed by the modified Seattle criteria and in 16 of 23 patients (70%) diagnosed by biopsy. VOD/SOS with a bilirubin level <2 mg/dL was more common in pediatric patients (29%), although it also occurred in adult patients (15%). Patients with hyperbilirubinemia had lower Day 100 survival (54% versus 87% in patients with bilirubin <2 mg/dL) and a higher incidence of MOD (41% versus 26% in patients with bilirubin <2 mg/dL). The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events and serious adverse events was lower in patients with a bilirubin level <2 mg/dL. These results indicate that anicteric VOD/SOS occurs in both adult and pediatric patients post-HCT and can be diagnosed before and after Day 21 in both groups. The worse survival in patients with bilirubin ≥2 mg/dL suggests that requiring hyperbilirubinemia may result in a progressed disease stage associated with worse outcomes. Taken together, these results highlight the importance of awareness and the possibility of VOD/SOS in the absence of elevated bilirubin level. 相似文献

The main obstacle for allogeneic transplantation is delayed hematologic reconstitution and serious graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The results of 128 patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing HLA-identical (n = 52) or HLA-haploidentical/mismatched (n = 76) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) performed during the same time period were compared. Patients with HLA-identical HSCT received unmanipulated granulocyte-colony stimulating factor-mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (G-PBSCs). Forty-six patients with HLA-haploidentical related HSCT received antithymocyte globulin (ATG) in conditioning regimens followed by the transplantation of the combination of unmanipulated G-PBSCs and granulocyte-colony stimulating factor-mobilized bone marrow (G-BM) and 30 patients with HLA-mismatched unrelated HSCT received ATG in conditioning regimens followed by the transplantation of unmanipulated G-PBSCs. All patients got successful hematopoietic engraftment. The cumulative incidences of grades I to II acute GVHD (aGVHD) on day 100 in the identical, haploidentical related and mismatched unrelated cohorts were 21.2%, 43.5%, and 53.3%, respectively. The cumulative incidences of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) in the identical, mismatched unrelated, and haploidentical related cohorts were 34.6%, 33.3%, and 10.9%, respectively. The 2-year relapse and treatment-related mortality (TRM) rates were 19.2%, 23.9%, 23.3%, and 9.6%, 8.7%, 10% for patients who underwent identical, HLA-haploidentical related, and mismatched unrelated transplantation, respectively. The 2-year probabilities of leukemia-free survival and overall survival were 72.2%, 70.6%, 68.1%, and 76.5%, 77.8%, 70.0% after identical, haploidentical related and mismatched unrelated transplantations, respectively. Multivariate analyses showed that only advanced disease stage and a diagnosis of disease had increased risk of relapse, treatment failure, and overall mortality. In conclusion, it is a feasible approach with acceptable outcomes for patients undergoing HLA-haploidentical related HSCT by the combination of G-PBSCs and G-BM with conditioning regimens including ATG. 相似文献

Acute GVHD remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). In a retrospective analysis, the response of 443 HSCT patients who received prednisone, 60 mg/m2, for 14 days followed by an 8-week taper, as initial therapy for acute GVHD from 1990 through 1999 at a single institution was examined. Median patient age was 29.0 years (range, 0.3-60.3 years), with 40% of patients <20 years old. Patients received HSCT from 201 related (189 matched sibling/12 partially matched) and 242 unrelated (130 HLA-A, B, DRB1 matched/112 partially matched) donors. GVHD score was measured and outcomes compared using the Minnesota, Consensus, and International Bone Marrow Transplant Registry (IBMTR) grading systems. Prior to initiation of steroid therapy, severe (grades III-IV) acute GVHD was observed in 57 (13%) patients (Minnesota or Consensus grading) and in 192 (43%) patients (IBMTR grading). At day 28 of treatment, overall improvement was observed in 55% of patients, with durable (> or = 28 days) complete response observed in 35% and partial response observed in 20% of patients. Patients with acute lower gastrointestinal GVHD (+/- other organ involvement) had lower response rates. In multivariate logistic regression analysis, recipients of related donor grafts and recipients of GVHD prophylaxis other than methotrexate alone had the highest likelihood of overall response. Initial Minnesota GVHD grade or Consensus GVHD grade was not associated with significant differences in overall response, whereas patients with an initial IBMTR grade of B or C had a higher likelihood of response. Chronic GVHD developed in 42% of patients by 1 year after HSCT. The probability of survival at 1 year after initiation of steroid therapy was 53% (95% confidence interval, 48%-58%). In Cox regression analysis, factors associated with better survival included patients' youth, receipt of related or HLA-matched unrelated grafts, and administration of GVHD prophylaxis other than T-cell depletion in all 3 grading systems. Lower initial GVHD grade (I-II or A-B) led to better survival. These data suggest that steroids provide an active but inadequate therapy for acute GVHD, especially with higher grade GVHD. More effective prophylaxis and therapy for acute GVHD is needed for mismatched unrelated donor recipients and for those with severe GVHD. 相似文献
