    Abstract: Cancer researchers have found midlife couples to have poorer outcomes compared to older couples due to the off-time nature of the illness for them. It is unknown if young couples (aged 18–39), who are under-represented in cancer studies and overlooked for supportive programs, are at further risk. This study explored the moderating roles of survivor age and sex on the associations between active engagement and protective buffering and depressive symptoms in couples surviving cancer. Methods The exploratory study comprised 49 couples (aged 27–58) 1–3 years post-diagnosis. Multilevel modeling was used to explore the moderating roles of survivor age and sex, controlling for interdependent data. Results Approximately, 37% of survivors and 27% of partners met clinical criteria for further assessment of depression, with 50% of couples having at least one member meeting the criteria. Survivors and their partners did not significantly differ on depressive symptoms, active engagement, or protective buffering. Male survivors reported significantly higher levels of active engagement by their partners than female survivors and female survivors reported significantly higher levels of protective buffering by their partners than male survivors. We found some evidence to suggest that survivor age and sex may play moderating roles between active engagement and protective buffering and depressive symptoms. Older partners and female survivors appeared to experience more positive effects from engaging in positive dyadic behaviors than younger partners and male survivors. Conclusion Findings not only confirm the important role of dyadic behaviors for couples surviving cancer together, but also the important roles of survivor age and sex may play in whether such behaviors are associated with lower levels of depressive symptoms. Future research that examines these complex associations over time and across the adult life span in diverse populations is needed.

    Abstract: The purpose of this study was to explore what young to midlife couples viewed as their strengths as a couple and the greatest challenges in their experience with cancer 1–3 years post‐diagnosis. Methods We used qualitative content analysis to extract common themes from open‐ended questions from 42 cancer survivors and their partners (aged 27–58). Patterns of themes by age and gender of the survivor were also explored. Results Couples described both positive and negative impacts of the cancer experience: (1) strengthened the relationship, bringing couples closer together; (2) brought emotional strain to many areas of life, especially for partners; (3) created positive changes in lifestyle and new priorities for the couple; (4) created strain in the couple's relationship and intimacy; and (5) altered the role of family in supporting the couple. Couples also described four key strengths in dealing with the cancer experience: (1) drawing strength from shared love and mutuality; (2) communicating openly, even about the difficult stuff; (3) working together as a team to support each other; and (4) drawing strength from shared values and goals. Couples reported unmet needs related to the emotional and relational strain of the cancer experience, managing longer term survivor symptoms, fertility and physical intimacy, and lack of support or attention to the partner who often assumed the role of care partner. Conclusions Themes are discussed in light of current dyadic concepts and importance of couple‐based interventions.

    Abstract: Risk stratification in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) remains principle in survival prognostication and treatment selection. The 2022 European LeukemiaNet (ELN) recommendations were recently published, with notable updates to risk group assignment. The complexity of risk stratification and comparative outcomes between the 2022 and 2017 ELN guidelines remains unknown. This comparative analysis evaluated outcomes between the 2017 and 2022 ELN criteria in patients enrolled within the multicenter Beat AML cohort. Five hundred thirteen patients were included. Most patients had 1 or 2 ELN risk–defining abnormalities. In patients with ≥2 ELN risk–defining mutations, 44% (n = 132) had mutations spanning multiple ELN risk categories. Compared with ELN 2017 criteria, the updated ELN 2022 guidelines changed the assigned risk group in 15% of patients, including 10%, 26%, and 6% of patients categorized as being at ELN 2017 favorable–, intermediate–, and adverse–risk, respectively. The median overall survival across ELN 2022 favorable–, intermediate–, and adverse–risk groups was not reached, 16.8, and 9.7 months, respectively. The ELN 2022 guidelines more accurately stratified survival between patients with intermediate- or adverse-risk AML treated with induction chemotherapy compared with ELN 2017 guidelines. The updated ELN 2022 guidelines better stratify survival between patients with intermediate- or adverse-risk AML treated with induction chemotherapy. The increased complexity of risk stratification with inclusion of additional cytogenetic and molecular aberrations necessitates clinical workflows simplifying risk stratification.

    Abstract: Cancer is the leading disease-related cause of death in adolescents and young adults (AYAs). This population faces many short- and long-term health and psychosocial consequences of cancer diagnosis and treatment, but many programs for cancer treatment, survivorship care, and psychosocial support do not focus on the specific needs of AYA cancer patients. Recognizing this health care disparity, the National Cancer Policy Forum of the Institute of Medicine convened a public workshop to examine the needs of AYA patients with cancer. Workshop participants identified many gaps and challenges in the care of AYA cancer patients and discussed potential strategies to address these needs. Suggestions included ways to improve access to care for AYAs, to deliver cancer care that better meets the medical and psychosocial needs of AYAs, to develop educational programs for providers who care for AYA cancer survivors, and to enhance the evidence base for AYAs with cancer by facilitating participation in research.

    Abstract: Multiple prognostic models for patients with advanced Hodgkin’s disease have been developed in an effort to identify high-risk individuals for ASCT and predict outcomes of high dose therapy and transplant. The utility of four of these models was examined in a cohort of patients transplanted in our program between 1993 and 2005. A total of 113 patients with relapsed or refractory Hodgkin’s disease received ASCT. Forty-five patients received a conditioning regimen of busulfan, melphalan, and thiotepa (BuMelTT) whereas 68 patients received other standard conditioning regimens (SCR) including Cy/TBI/VP (23), CBV (39), and other (6). Median age is 34.5 years for BuMelTT and 34.0 years for SCR patients. Ninety-eight percent of patients receiving BuMelTT had at least two or more prior regimens compared with 86% SCR patients. Eighty-seven percent of BuMelTT and 93% of SCR patients had chemosensitive disease prior to transplant. Median followup is 113 weeks for BuMelTT patients versus 201 weeks for SCR patients. To date 37% of the BuMelTT and 56% of SCR patients have relapsed (p 〈 0.05) with a median time to relapse of 30 and 36 weeks (p=NS) respectively. Statistically significant factors differentiating the BuMelTT and SCR groups included median followup post-ASCT, total percent relapse after transplant, death after transplant, relapse in prior radiation field, and stage at salvage therapy pre-ASCT. Median OS, EFS, and RFS have not yet been reached for BuMelTT patients compared with 439 (p=0.03), 67 (p=NS), and 74 (p=NS) weeks for the SCR patients. TRM was five percent in both groups at five years. We investigated the predictive value of four prognostic models on the entire group, BuMelTT and SCR cohorts. Models evaluated included Roswell Park (RPCI), Memorial Sloan-Kettering, German Hodgkin’s Study Group, and Southwestern Oncology Group (SWOG). Each of these models has identified three negative prognostic indicators on the basis of multivariate analysis. Patients who had 0 or 1 factor were considered good risk and those that had 2 or 3 factors poor risk. Only the SWOG model ( 〉 2 prior regimens, relapse in previous radiation field, extranodal disease) was predictive for OS for the entire group (p 〈 0.01) and for the BuMelTT (p=0.05) and SCR (p 〈 0.01) cohorts. The SWOG model was also able to differentiate EFS between good and poor risk patients for the entire group (p=0.02) and SCR group (p=0.05) but not for the BuMelTT cohort. None of the models could differentiate between good and poor risk patients with regard to RFS. When good and poor risk were defined as 0 factors versus 1 to 3 factors, the RPCI model (chemotherapy-resistant disease, poor performance status, and 3 or more chemotherapy regimens prior to transplant) was predictive of OS (p=0.02) and EFS (p=0.02) but only for the BuMelTT cohort. These results suggest that BuMelTT may improve long-term outcomes in patients with advanced Hodgkin’s disease. The prognostic models evaluated had limited utility in our patient cohort with only the SWOG model being predictive of outcome. Large multi-institutional studies are needed to improve prognostic models for transplantation in advanced Hodgkin’s disease.

    Abstract: No randomized trials have compared autologous HCT (autoHCT) to allogeneic HCT (alloHCT) for DLBCL. We analyzed the outcomes of 916 patients (pts) (837 autoHCT and 79 alloHCT) ages 18–60yrs after a first autoHCT or HLA-identical sibling alloHCT for DLBCL between 1995 and 2003 reported to the CIBMTR. Pts receiving T-cell depleted allografts or reduced-intensity conditioning were excluded. There were significant baseline differences between the groups in disease stage, B symptoms, extranodal disease and marrow involvement. AlloHCT pts were significantly more likely to have 〉 3 chemo regimens prior to HCT (53 vs 40%), and resistant induction failure or relapse (39 vs 16%). At 1yr, treatment-related mortality (TRM) was higher after alloHCT (41%, 95% CI, 30–52%) than after autoHCT (11%, 95% CI, 9–14%, p 〈 0.001), but risks of relapse/progression were similar (30%, 95% CI, 21–41%) and (33%, 95% CI, 29–36%, p=0.69), respectively. Cumulative incidence of outcomes and univariate probabilities of progression free (PFS) and overall survival (OS) at 5 yrs are summarized in table 1. In multivariate analysis, allo and autoHCT had differential early and late effects on outcomes. In the first 12 mo after transplant, alloHCT was associated with higher TRM (RR 4.76, 95% CI, 3.14–7.22, p 〈 0.001), treatment failure (RR 2.08, 95% CI, 1.56–2.77, p 〈 0.001) and mortality (RR 2.78, 95% CI, 2.06–3.77, p 〈 0.001) but similar risk of progression (RR 1.14, 95% CI, 0.75–1.74, p=0.54) compared to autoHCT. Among pts surviving 12 mo post-transplant, no significant difference was observed between autoHCT and alloHCT for TRM, progression, PFS, or OS. Covariates that increased the risks of TRM and OS were older age (51–60 years), KPS 〈 90%, chemoresistance at transplant, and earlier transplant yr (before 2001 vs later). Older age and chemoresistance were also associated with progression and lower PFS. There were no significant interactions between graft type and other prognostic variables; in particular, relative risk of outcomes with allo vs autoHCT were similar for patients with chemosensitive and chemoresistant disease. In summary, myeloablative alloHCT increased risks of early TRM and mortaliy without an effect on progression (compared to autoHCT). Transplant type did not affect outcomes after 12 months post-transplant. AutoHCT was associated with superior survival (fig 1), and the difference was not explained by differences in chemosensitivity at the time of transplant.

    Abstract: Background: Patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who present with extra-nodal involvement or histologic transformation from low-grade disease have lower rates of survival after conventional-dose therapy. The impact of these features on outcomes after high-dose therapy with autologous transplantation was investigated. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the outcomes of 64 consecutive patients receiving autologous transplantation from 1995 to 2003 for the treatment of DLBCL. Variables considered were age, gender, histologic transformation, history of bone marrow involvement, history of central nervous system (CNS) involvement, time from diagnosis to transplant, number of pre-transplant regimens, chemosensitivity prior to transplant, conditioning regimen, year of transplant, and the use of peripheral blood or bone marrow stem cells. Survivals were estimated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to test the significance of factors on survival. Univariate association between variables and survival were tested by the log-rank test. Correlation between variables was tested with Spearman’s rank coefficient. Results: The median age at transplant among 64 patients was 53.5 years (17–74). The median overall survival was 3.3 years. Among these patients, 12 had a history of CNS involvement, 10 had a history of bone marrow involvement, and 12 had transformed from low-grade lymphoma. A Cox regression model suggested age 〈 50 (log-rank, p=0.093), 〈 2 regimens prior to transplant (log-rank, p=0.052), and the lack of BEAM as conditioning regimen (log-rank, p=0.019) as multivariate factors for survival. However, the use of BEAM was highly associated with older age (R²= 0.42, p=0.001) and more prior chemotherapy regimens (R²=0.24, p=0.054). A history of extranodal involvement, including prior CNS involvement (p=0.842) or bone marrow involvement (p=0.518), was not associated with lower survival by univariate analysis. No significant association was found between survival and a history of transformation (p=0.484). Conclusions: A history of CNS involvement, bone marrow involvement, or histologic transformation is not associated with lower rates of survival among patients undergoing autologous transplantation for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma at our institution. Patients who present with such histories remain candidates for autologous transplantation.
