    Abstract: Introduction Trans-placental trafficking of maternal and fetal cells during pregnancy establishes long-term, reciprocal micro-chimerism in both mother and child (Maloney et al., J Clin Invest, 104:41, 1999). As a consequence, the immune system of the mother may become sensitized to paternal histocompatibility antigens. In fact, antibodies directed against paternal HLA-antigens (van Rood JJ et al., Nature 181:1735, 1958) and T lymphocytes directed against paternal major and minor histocompatibility antigens (van Kampen CA et al., Hum Immunol 62:201, 2001; Verdijk RM et al., Blood 103:1961, 2004) were detected in multiparous women. More recently, it was hypothesized that mother's "exposure" to paternal HLA haplotype antigens during pregnancy may affect transplantation outcomes when the mother acts as donor for the child. Indeed, survival after T cell-depleted HLA haploidentical haematopoietic transplantation was improved using the mother as donor (vs all other family members) (Stern et al., Blood 112:2990, 2008; Kruchen et al., BMT 50:1367 2015). However, maternal donors were associated with increased incidence of GvHD and decreased survival after un-manipulated HLA haploidentical blood and marrow grafts (Wang Y et al., Blood 124:843, 2014). Patients and Methods A retrospective EBMT registry-based study was performed in a combined series of adult (n=333) and pediatric (n=105) patients with acute leukemia (AML=268, ALL=160, Mixed phenotype=10) who received transplant from one MHC mismatched family donor. Forty-four percent (233) of patients were in I or II complete remission (CR) at the time of transplant, 193 were in chemo-resistant relapse or in CR 〉 2. Median age was 32.7 (range: 0.67-70). Seventy-one percent of patients received ex-vivo T cell depleted transplants. Twenty-two patients were given bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cells, the others were given peripheral blood cells only. The mother was used as donor in 98 patients. Results Eighty patients developed acute GvHD ≥ grade II. At a median follow up of 58.7 months, 130 patients are alive without disease, 146 relapsed and 152 died of non-relapse mortality (NRM). Univariate analyses of factors influencing relapse-free survival (RFS) showed age, disease status at transplant, Karnofsky score and ex-vivo T cell depletion impacted significantly. As transplantation outcomes from family members other than mothers did not differ from one another, such transplants were combined for analyses. When compared with transplantation from all other family members (n=330), transplantation from mother donors (n=98) was associated with lower relapse incidence (RI) (28% vs 39%, P=0.06) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) (30% vs 40%, P=0.09) and, consequently, better relapse-free survival (RFS) (43% vs 21%, P 〈 0.001). Multivariate analyses showed transplantation from mother donors was an independent factor predicting better RFS (other donors vs mothers: HR: 1.42; CI: 1.01-2.00; P=0.04) and lower RI (other donors vs mothers: HR: 1.93; CI: 1.16-3.22; P = 0.01). In addition, transplantation in relapse (vs remission) predicted worse RFS (HR: 2.33, CI: 1.80-3.00, P 〈 0.001) such as ≥18 (vs 〈 18) adversely impacted on RFS (HR: 1.40, CI: 1.00-1.96, P=0.04). Discussion Our retrospective analyses in 438 HLA haploidentical hematopoietic transplants for acute leukemia patients (pediatric and adult) show that transplantation from mother donors, when compared with transplantation from any other family member, is an independent factor predicting better outcomes, i.e., better RFS and lower RI. Mothers should therefore be preferred when selecting an HLA haploidentical family donor. Further clinical and preclinical studies are needed to unveil the mysteries underlying mother-to-child immune interaction during pregnancy and its bearing on the reproductive success of the human species.

    Abstract: Introduction and Aim: HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) is increasingly offered to patients with high-risk acute myeloid (AML) or lymphoid leukemia (ALL). Unfortunately, graft manipulation employed to overcome the HLA barrier significantly delays immune reconstitution, posing the patients at risk of infections. Accordingly, non-relapse mortality after haplo-HSCT clearly extends beyond day 100 post-transplant. Over the years, different approaches have been investigated to speed-up immune reconstitution. In the absence of validated immune biomarkers, it is however difficult to evaluate the clinical impact of accelerated immune reconstitution. The aim of this EBMT retrospective study is to explore immune-cell counts early after haplo-HSCT as predictive of its overall outcome. Methods and Patients: Among AML and ALL patients in the EBMT database who underwent haplo-HSCT in the period 2001-2012, criteria for study entry were survival beyond day 100 and availability of differential immune-cell counts (CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ T cells, CD19+ B cells, CD16+/CD56+ NK cells) within this period. Accordingly, statistical analysis was landmarked at day 100. Of 259 patients meeting these criteria (age 2-70, median 33), 67 (26%) were children. The underlying disease was AML in 162 cases (63%), while ALL in the remaining (including 5 cases of bi-phenotypic leukemia). Fifty-two percent of patients were transplanted in CR1. The stem-cell source was G-CSF mobilized peripheral blood in all but one patient ( 〉 99%) and 171 received TBI (66%). The graft was manipulated in 199 patients (78%), including CD34-selection (50%), ex vivo T-cell depletion (15%) or both (13%). Female-to-male transplants were 68 (26%), while 204 (79%) recipients were CMV seropositive. Sustained hematopoietic engraftment was reached in 246 patients (95%) Results: The estimated overall survival at 2yrs was43%. The estimated cumulative incidence of death due to relapse was 33%, while that of death due to other causes was 35% (51% of those were infections) The occurrence of grade III-IV GVHD and of chronic GVHD was 9% and 18% (7% extensive), respectively. As expected, overall survival was better in children (62% vs 36%, P=0.002 by Log-rank), who clearly had a lower incidence of death due to causes other than relapse compared with adults (10% vs 37%, P=0.0001). Negative prognostic factors for overall survival were any disease state other than CR1 at time of transplantation (P=0.002) and CMV seropositivity (P=0.009). Type of leukemia, TBI or graft manipulation had no effect on the outcome. By day 100 post-transplant, patients reached the following median immune-cell counts: 100 CD3+ T cells (range 0-2576), 30 CD4+ T cells (0-1714), 48 CD8+ T cells (0-1880), 276 CD16+/CD56+ NK cells (18-3581), 21 CD19+ B cells (0-790). Importantly, CD3+ counts above the first quartile (1Q) of the entire data set (29 cells per microL) were significantly associated with a better overall survival (P=0.0005 by Log rank) and a lower incidence of death due to causes other than relapse (P=0.002 by Gray test). The same held true for CD8+ counts (1Q: 15 cells per microL; P=0.003 on overall survival; P=0.0004 on death due to other causes). CD4+ counts also showed similar correlations, but at higher values (above the median). None of the other immune-cell counts analyzed correlated with clinical outcome. Strikingly, when challenged in multivariate analysis taking into account age category, CMV seropositivity, graft manipulation and CR1 status at transplant, CD3+ and CD8+ counts above the 1Q adjusted to fit optimal cut-off points were still significantly associated with a better overall survival (P=0.006 and P=0.015, respectively), but only CD8+ values associated with a lesser risk of death due to causes other than relapse (P=0.026). Conversely, similarly adjusted median CD4+ counts failed to show any association. Conclusions: Contrary to what is generally accepted, these results indicate that an accelerated CD8+, but not CD4+, T cell reconstitution associates with a more favorable clinical outcome after haplo-HSCT, likely due to its protective role against opportunistic viral infections. Moreover, they suggest that yet to be validated CD8+ cut-off points, rather than the commonly used arbitrary value of 200 CD4+ T cells per microL, should be considered as surrogate biomarkers in clinical trials.

    Abstract: Introduction Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are diagnosed at median age of 70 years. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative treatment option, but with an increasing age, morbidity escalates. Treatment guidelines suggest HSCT for intermediate-II and high risk constellations up to the age of 65, and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens are commonly used up to 70 years of age. However, increasing life expectancy, availability of RIC regimens and good Karnofsky performance status (KPS) of MDS patients more than 70 years of age, has led to an increased use of HSCT. We performed a retrospective analysis to investigate results after HSCT for those patients and influence of KPS on outcome. Patients and methods We analyzed data of 345 patients in the EMBT database older than 70 years with MDS/sAML. The disease status at transplantation was available in 233 patients and most of the them were in more advanced stage of the disease: RA/RARS,RCMD (n=25) , RAEB (n=68) and RAEB-T/secondary acute leukemia (sAL, n=140). Donor were: related (n=88) and unrelated (n=257). Cytogenetic data were available only in 73 patients and classified as good (58), intermediate (6), poor (5) and very poor (4). Median follow up was 29.7 months. Median age at transplantation was 72 years (70-79 years) with 249 male and 96 female patients. KPS was defined in 300 cases, being 90-100% in 61% and 80% or less in 39%. Stem cell source was peripheral blood (94%) or bone marrow (6%). The intensity of the conditioning regimen was mainly reduced intensity (78%) rather than myeloablative (22%). Negative or positive CMV sero-status of the patient were seen in 35% and 65%, respectively. Results The number of HSCT for MDS patients of 70 years or more has increased over time. While 2000-2004 only 19 patients received transplantation, the following 3-year periods included 28 (2005-2007), 97 (2008-2010) and 200 (2011-2013) patients, respectively. The estimated 3-year OS was 33% (27-39%). A significant better 3 year OS in the univariate analysis was seen for Karnofsky (90-100%) vs 80% or less (41 vs 23%, p=0.008) and for CMV negative sero-status (46% vs 27%, p 〉 〈 0.001) while disease status, remission status, intensity of the conditioning regimen, and donor source did not influence OS significantly. The cumulative incidence of relapse at 3 years was 40% (95% CI: 32-48) and significantly lower with unrelated than related donors (24% vs 43%, p =0.004). There was only a trend for a lower incidence of relapse after myeloablative conditioning in comparison to RIC (22% vs 31%, p=0.09), while remission status, T-cell depletion or disease stage did not influence the risk of relapse. The cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality at 1 year was 36% (95% CI: 30-42) and significantly influenced by CMV sero-negativity of the recipient (22% vs 38%, p=0.02) and by Karnofsky index 90-100% (29% vs 34% and at 2 years: 32% vs 46%, p=0.01). A trend for lower NRM was seen for related donors (24% vs 35%, p=0.07) and after reduced intensity conditioning (29% vs 41%, p=0.09). No impact on NRM was seen for disease and remission status. In a multivariate analysis (MVA) significant factor for improved OS was Karnofsky index of 90-100% (HR 0.65: 95% CI: 0.48-0.88, p=0.001) and for worse survival CMV sero-positivity (HR 1.61; 95% CI: 1.15-2.21, p 〈 0.001). For relapse the only significant factor was the use of unrelated donors (HR 0.50; 95% CI: 0.32-0.80, p=0.004). Significant factors for NRM in the MVA were Karnofsky index 90-100% (HR 0.63; 95% CI: 0.42-0.96, p=0.03), CMV sero-positivity of the recipient (HR 1.76; 95% CI: 1.12-2.76, p=0.001) and unrelated donors (HR 1.67; 95% CI: 0.16-2.76, p=0.04). Conclusion HSCT from related or unrelated donor after myeloablative or dose reduced intensity conditioning for advanced MDS patients 70-years and more is a curative treatment option with a 3-year OS of 33%. Good performance, determined by KPS, and sero-negativity for CMV in the patient increase the 3 year estimated overall survival to 41 and 46%, respectively.

    Abstract: Introduction: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) is a treatment for CLL that can give long disease control. Even with the availability of kinase and BCL2 inhibitors, HCT is still performed in fit patients (pts) with high-risk CLL. Almost exclusively, outcomes on matched related and unrelated donor transplantations in CLL have been published. Recently, mismatched related donors are gaining interest because of the better outcome of haploidentical HCT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY). Methods: All pts with CLL who received a first allogeneic HCT with a mismatched related donor and whose data were available in the EBMT registry were analyzed. Median values and ranges are reported for continuous variables and percentages for categorical variables. The probabilities of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank test for univariate comparisons. Relapse/progression and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) were analyzed together in a competing risk framework. Statistical analyses were performed using SPSS and R. Results: One-hundred-seventeen pts with CLL (74% males) underwent a mismatched related donor transplantation between 1984 and 2015 (1984-1999: 10, 2000-2004: 18, 2005-2009: 23, 2010-2016: 66). Median follow-up after HCT was 8 months (range 0-187 months). Median age at transplantation was 54 years (yrs) (range 27-71 yrs). Median time from diagnosis to HCT was 67 months (range 4-207 months). Eighteen pts (17%) had previously undergone autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Disease status at HCT was CR in 16% of pts, PR in 39% and SD/PD in 45%. The Karnofsky score was known for 98 pts; 96% had a score of 70% or more at the time of HCT. Fifty-eight percent of pts received reduced-intensity conditioning, 42% myeloablative conditioning. Peripheral blood stem cells were used in 68% of pts, bone marrow in 32%. The HCT was sex matched in 41% of recipient-donor pairs. The relationship of the donor to the patient was known for 34 pts; in 53% the donor was a child, in 38% a sibling and in 6% a parent. Forty pts (38%) received PTCY as GVHD prophylaxis. In the other 77 pts various methods of T-cell depletion (TCD) were used, but not all methods were specified. At least 56% of those pts had in vivo TCD. For the whole cohort of pts OS at 2 and 5 yrs was 46% and 37%, respectively. PFS at 2 and 5 yrs was 38% and 30%, respectively. The use of PTCY did not have a significant impact on OS (49% vs. 42% at 2 yrs, 44% vs. 33% at 5 yrs, p=0.35) and PFS (45% vs. 31% at 2 yrs, 40% vs. 22% at 5 yrs, p=0.15). CI of NRM in the whole group at 2 and 5 yrs were 41% and 45%, respectively. CI of relapse at 2 and 5 yrs were 21% and 25%, respectively. The CI of NRM and relapse at 2 and 5 yrs were not statistically different in pts who received PTCY compared to other types of TCD (NRM: 38% vs. 45% at 2 yrs, 43% vs. 49% at 5 yrs, p=0.45; relapse: 17% vs. 25% at 2 yrs, 17% vs. 29% at 5 yrs, p=0.33). For the whole cohort, the incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) at 100 days was 34% for grade II-IV and 16% for grade III-IV with a median time of onset of 23 days (range 4-57 days). Conclusions: Mismatched related donor HCT resulted in a 5-year PFS in 30% of the pts. This result seems only slightly inferior to matched donor transplant (5 yrs PFS 37%1). NRM was higher than expected in this cohort, but comparable to other studies on haploSCT with in vivo T-cell depleted grafts. In conclusion, a mismatched related donor HCT may be considered for high-risk chemoimmunotherapy-refractory or 17p deleted/TP53 mutated CLL pts without options for kinase and BCL2 inhibitor therapy. More data are needed to assess the value of PTCY for GVHD prophylaxis in this specific context. References: 1. Schetelig J, de Wreede L, Moreno C, et al.

    Abstract: Introduction The number of MDS patients who receive allogeneic stem cell transplantation is steadily increasing. However, the main cause for treatment failure is relapse which exceeds 50%. Post transplant strategies such as novel agents (5-azacytidine, HDAC inhibitor etc.) as well as adoptive immunotherapy (e.g. DLI) are currently under investigation to reduce the risk of relapse. Patients and methods In order to have a valid tool for stratification in phase III studies, the CMWP of EBMT is developing a simplified "Relapse-risk score" for MDS patients. For this purpose 1638 patients with MDS who received an allogeneic stem cell transplantation from HLA-identical sibling or a matched unrelated donor between 1995 and 2012 and reported to EBMT registry were included. The median age of the patients was 54 years (range 18-76) and diagnosis were: RAR/RARS/RCDM-(RS) and RAEB. Variables which were taken into the analysis were: age, classification of MDS, donor source (HLA-identical sibling vs matched unrelated donors), acute and chronic GvHD,stem cell source (PBSC vs bone marrow), T-cell depletion , intensity of the conditioning regimen (reduced intensity vs standard myeloablative), blasts in bone marrow at time of transplant, and cytogenetic: very poor (very poor according to IPSS revised or monosomal karyotype), poor (according to IPSS-revised), and good (according to IPSS-revised) and unclassifiable. To take the different risks of relapse depending on time from transplant into account we developed 4 different prognostic models: 1) relapse between SCT and 6 months after SCT, 2) relapse between 6 and 12 months post-SCT, 3) relapse between 12 and 24 months post-SCT and 4) relapse after 24 months post-SCT. Results Multivariate Fine and Gray regression models were used to assess the impact of risk factors on the cumulative incidence of relapse. Disease status RAEB remains significant in all 4 models (1: HR 1.62 (95% CI 1.14-2.86), 2: HR 2.51 (95% CI 1.49-4.20), 3: HR 2.10 (95% CI 1.19-3.73), and 4: HR 2.97 (95% 1.56-5.60), whereas very poor cytogenetic was significant in model 1: HR 4.33 (95% CI 2.85-6.60), and model 3: HR 3.51 (95% CI 1.69-7.29)), poor cytogenetic only for early relapse: model 1: HR 2.19 (95% CI 1.39-3.27). RIC was significant for model 1: HR 2.04 (95% CI 1.51-2.75 and 2: HR 1.72 (95% CI 1.06-2.77), T-cell depletion for model 2: HR 1.61 (95% CI 1.02-2.56), and 3: HR 2.01 (95% CI 1.19-3.39). The prognostic risk scores are directly obtained by adding up the relevant log-hazard ratios, which allows dividing patients into three risk groups, low, medium, high, defined by tertiles in the study population. Cumulative incidence plots of relapse for each of the three groups are shown. Conclusion Relapse as most common treatment failure of allogeneic SCT in MDS can occur even after 24 months. Several risk factors influence the incidence of relapse, however while RAEB disease status influence early, intermediate and late relapse, other risk factors such as cGvHD influence only late ( 〉 24 months relapse. Therefore, these risk scores may help to stratify patients according to their risk of relapse after stem cell transplantation which can be used for stratification in further prospective trials using post transplant therapies at different time points after stem cell transplantation to reduce the risk of relapse.

    Abstract: Patients with relapsed/refractory chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have excellent responses with kinase or BCL2 inhibitors, but patients with high risk cytogenetics (del(17p) and/or del(11q)) do not seem to achieve long-term disease control. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) can result in sustained progression-free survival. As non-relapse mortality (NRM) after alloHCT is partly age-dependent, alloHCT is preferably considered in younger high cytogenetic risk CLL patients, but data of early NRM and longer-term PFS lack for this age group. We focused in this study on younger allo-transplanted CLL patients ( 〈 50 years) in an EBMT registry cohort with additional data collection (n=197, median follow-up 90.4 months). The most important prognostic factor for 2-year NRM in multivariate analysis was the donor HLA match: HR 2.5, 95% CI: 1.1-5.4 for an HLA-matched unrelated donor, and HR 4.0, 95% CI: 1.4-11.6 for an HLA-mismatched unrelated donor, both versus a matched sibling (Table 1). Predictors for poor 8-year PFS were "no remission at the time of alloHCT" (HR 1.7 (95% CI: 1.1-2.5)) and partially HLA-mismatched unrelated donor (HR 2.8 (95% CI: 1.5-5.2))(Table 2). High risk cytogenetics did not have a significant impact on 8-year PFS. Based on the regression model, a reference patient was created with high risk cytogenetics (del(17p) and/or del(11q)) and "good transplant" characteristics (remission at the time of alloHCT and HLA- and sex-matched sibling donor). The predicted two-year NRM for this patient was 12.1% (95% CI: 2.5%-21.7%)(Figure A) and 8-year PFS 53.5% (95% CI: 38.0%-69.0%)(Figure B). Such a low predicted NRM may keep up with the 9% "real-world" reported 1-year NRM of ibrutinib and the 8-year PFS compares favorably to outcomes after using kinase inhibitors or venetoclax. Taking into account the amount of uncertainty for predicting survival after alloHCT but also for the sequential administration of kinase inhibitors and venetoclax, alloHCT still remains a valid option for younger high cytogenetic risk refractory/relapsed CLL patients with a 10/10 HLA-allele matched donor.
