Natural history of papillary lesions of the urinary bladder in schistosomiasis. (1/9074)

Variable epithelial hyperplasia was observed in urinary bladder of nine capuchin monkeys (Cebus apella) when examined at cystotomy 94 to 164 weeks after infection with Schistosoma haematobium. These hosts were followed for 24 to 136 weeks postcystotomy to determine the status of bladder lesions in relation to duration of infection and to ascertain whether lesion samples removed at cystotomy reestablished themselves in autologous and heterologous transfers. There was involution of urothelial hyperplasia in eight of nine animals and no evidence for establishment of transplanted bladder lesions.  (+info)

Donor MHC and adhesion molecules in transplant arteriosclerosis. (2/9074)

Transplant-associated arteriosclerosis remains an obstacle to long-term graft survival. To determine the contribution to transplant arteriosclerosis of MHC and adhesion molecules from cells of the donor vasculature, we allografted carotid artery loops from six mutant mouse strains into immunocompetent CBA/CaJ recipients. The donor mice were deficient in either MHC I molecules or MHC II molecules, both MHC I and MHC II molecules, the adhesion molecule P-selectin, intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM)-1, or both P-selectin and ICAM-1. Donor arteries in which ICAM-1, MHC II, or both MHC I and MHC II were absent showed reductions in neointima formation of 52%, 33%, and 38%, respectively, due primarily to a reduction in smooth muscle cell (SMC) accumulation. In P-selectin-deficient donor arteries, neointima formation did not differ from that in controls. In donor arteries lacking both P-selectin and ICAM-1, the size of the neointima was similar to that in those lacking ICAM-1 alone. In contrast, neointima formation increased by 52% in MHC I-deficient donor arteries. The number of CD4-positive T cells increased by 2.8-fold in MHC I-deficient arteries, and that of alpha-actin-positive SMCs by twofold. These observations indicate that ICAM-1 and MHC II molecules expressed in the donor vessel wall may promote transplant-associated arteriosclerosis. MHC I molecules expressed in the donor may have a protective effect.  (+info)

Organ-selective homing defines engraftment kinetics of murine hematopoietic stem cells and is compromised by Ex vivo expansion. (3/9074)

Hematopoietic reconstitution of ablated recipients requires that intravenously (IV) transplanted stem and progenitor cells "home" to organs that support their proliferation and differentiation. To examine the possible relationship between homing properties and subsequent engraftment potential, murine bone marrow (BM) cells were labeled with fluorescent PKH26 dye and injected into lethally irradiated hosts. PKH26(+) cells homing to marrow or spleen were then isolated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and assayed for in vitro colony-forming cells (CFCs). Progenitors accumulated rapidly in the spleen, but declined to only 6% of input numbers after 24 hours. Although egress from this organ was accompanied by a simultaneous accumulation of CFCs in the BM (plateauing at 6% to 8% of input after 3 hours), spleen cells remained enriched in donor CFCs compared with marrow during this time. To determine whether this differential homing of clonogenic cells to the marrow and spleen influenced their contribution to short-term or long-term hematopoiesis in vivo, PKH26(+) cells were sorted from each organ 3 hours after transplantation and injected into lethally irradiated Ly-5 congenic mice. Cells that had homed initially to the spleen regenerated circulating leukocytes (20% of normal counts) approximately 2 weeks faster than cells that had homed to the marrow, or PKH26-labeled cells that had not been selected by a prior homing step. Both primary (17 weeks) and secondary (10 weeks) recipients of "spleen-homed" cells also contained approximately 50% higher numbers of CFCs per femur than recipients of "BM-homed" cells. To examine whether progenitor homing was altered upon ex vivo expansion, highly enriched Sca-1(+)c-kit+Lin- cells were cultured for 9 days in serum-free medium containing interleukin (IL)-6, IL-11, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, stem cell factor, flk-2/flt3 ligand, and thrombopoietin. Expanded cells were then stained with PKH26 and assayed as above. Strikingly, CFCs generated in vitro exhibited a 10-fold reduction in homing capacity compared with fresh progenitors. These studies demonstrate that clonogenic cells with differential homing properties contribute variably to early and late hematopoiesis in vivo. The dramatic decline in the homing capacity of progenitors generated in vitro underscores critical qualitative changes that may compromise their biologic function and potential clinical utility, despite their efficient numerical expansion.  (+info)

Soluble HLA class I, HLA class II, and Fas ligand in blood components: a possible key to explain the immunomodulatory effects of allogeneic blood transfusions. (4/9074)

The immunomodulatory effect of allogeneic blood transfusions (ABT) has been known for many years. However, a complete understanding of the effects of ABT on the recipient's immune system has remained elusive. Soluble HLA class I (sHLA-I), HLA class II (sHLA-II), and Fas ligand (sFasL) molecules may play immunoregulatory roles. We determined by double-determinant immunoenzymatic assay (DDIA) sHLA-I, sHLA-II, and sFasL concentrations in different blood components. sHLA-I and sFasL levels in red blood cells (RBCs) stored for up to 30 days and in random-donor platelets are significantly (P <.001) higher than in other blood components and their amount is proportionate to the number of residual donor leukocytes and to the length of storage. Blood components with high sHLA-I and sFasL levels play immunoregulatory roles in vitro as in allogeneic mixed lymphocyte responses (MLR) and antigen-specific cytotoxic T-cell (CTL) activity, and induce apoptosis in Fas-positive cells. These data suggest that soluble molecules in blood components are functional. If these results are paralleled in vivo, they should be taken into account in transfusion practice. Blood components that can cause immunosuppression should be chosen to induce transplantation tolerance, whereas blood components that lack immunosuppressive effects should be preferred to reduce the risk of postoperative complications and cancer recurrence.  (+info)

Bone marrow transplantation in pediatric patients with therapy-related myelodysplasia and leukemia. (5/9074)

Eleven children underwent BMT for therapy-related MDS or leukemia, four from HLA-identical siblings and seven from unrelated donors. Ten of the 11 were conditioned with busulfan and cyclophosphamide as the majority had received prior irradiation to the chest and/or abdomen. All patients engrafted. Regimen-related toxicity was more common when compared to historical controls. Eight patients developed acute GVHD and four of eight who survived 100 days post transplant developed extensive chronic GVHD. Non-relapse related mortality occurred in three patients. Five patients developed recurrent malignancy: one died from recurrence of osteosarcoma, three died of recurrent leukemia or MDS and another developed two subsequent malignancies (duodenal carcinoma and anaplastic astrocytoma). Three survive disease-free at 14+, 22+ and 43+ months for a 2 year actuarial cancer-free survival of 24% (95% confidence interval = 5-53%). Although allogeneic BMT can be curative, regimen-related toxicity is frequent and recurrent malignancy remains the major obstacle.  (+info)

Risk factors for severe hemorrhagic cystitis following BMT. (6/9074)

Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) is a common toxicity of preparative regimens for bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Severe HC often requires prolonged and expensive hospitalization, and occasionally can result in death. To investigate the risk factors for severe HC, we conducted a retrospective study among 1908 patients who received BMTs at the University of Minnesota during 1974 to 1993. A previous report from our institution reported on 977 of these patients. We identified all patients with genitourinary complication within 100 days post-BMT from the BMT database. Medical charts for these patients were reviewed to determine whether the patient had HC and also the grade of HC. A total of 208 HC cases were identified during the study period. Of them, 92 patients had severe HC, an incidence of 5% (95% CI = 4-6%). We found that grade II-IV graft-versus-host disease (RR = 2.56; 95% CI = 1.43-4.56), use of busulfan (RR = 2.69; 95% CI = 1.35-5.35), and age at transplant (RR = 2.20; 95% CI = 1.27-3.81, for age of 10-30 compared to age of 0-9) were related to an increased risk of HC. In contrast, transplant year was inversely associated with the risk of HC (trend test, P < 0.01). We did not find any significant difference in HC with the use of prophylactic Mesna.  (+info)

The clinical utility of CMV surveillance cultures and antigenemia following bone marrow transplantation. (7/9074)

At our institution, the cytomegalovirus (CMV) prophylaxis protocol for allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) recipients who are CMV-seropositive or receive marrow from a CMV-seropositive donor consists of a surveillance bronchoscopy approximately 35 days posttransplant. Patients with a positive surveillance bronchoscopy for CMV receive pre-emptive ganciclovir. In order to determine the utility of other screening methods for CMV, we prospectively performed weekly CMV antigenemia, and blood, urine and throat cultures from time of engraftment to day 120 post-BMT in 126 consecutive patients. Pre-emptive ganciclovir was given to 11/81 patients (13.6%) because of a positive surveillance bronchoscopy for CMV. Results of CMV blood, urine and throat cultures and the antigenemia assay done prior to or at the time of the surveillance bronchoscopy were analyzed for their ability to predict the bronchoscopy result. The antigenemia test had the highest positive and negative predictive values (72% and 96%, respectively). The ability of these tests to predict CMV disease was evaluated in the 70 patients with a negative surveillance bronchoscopy who did not receive pre-emptive ganciclovir. Of 19 cases of active CMV disease, CMV antigenemia was positive in 15 patients (79%) a mean of 34 days preceding symptoms. Blood cultures were positive in 14/19 patients (74%) a mean of 31 days before onset of disease. CMV antigenemia is useful for predicting the surveillance bronchoscopy result, and also predicts the development of CMV disease in the majority of patients missed by the surveillance bronchoscopy.  (+info)

Disappearance of lupus anticoagulant after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. (8/9074)

Lupus anticoagulant antibodies have never been reported to disappear after either allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation in humans. We report the first case of disappearance of lupus anticoagulant antibodies in a patient without systemic lupus erythematosus or clinical evidence of other autoimmune disorders, who received an allogeneic bone marrow transplant as treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia. Although marrow transplantation is not a recognized therapy for antiphospholipid syndrome, our observation should be considered another example of the capability of intensive chemo-radiotherapy followed by stem cell transplantation to ablate a pathologic marrow clone resulting in an autoimmune disorder and improve, or even cure, some severe autoimmune diseases.  (+info)

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection causes significant morbidity and mortality in the setting of immunodeficiency, including the immune reconstitution phase following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). We assessed CMV-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses in 87 HLA-A*0201-positive (A2+) and/or B*0702-positive (B7+) allogeneic stem cell transplant recipients using HLA-peptide tetramer staining and cytokine flow cytometry (CFC) to examine the association of CMV-specific immune reconstitution and CMV antigenemia following SCT. Strong CMV-specific T-cell responses recovered in most subjects (77 of 87, 88%) after SCT. Frequencies of CMV-specific CD8(+) T cells were significantly higher in those subjects who experienced early antigenemia relative to those who did not (2.2% vs 0.33%, P =.0002), as were frequencies of CMV-specific CD4(+) T cells (1.71% vs 0.75%, P =.002). Frequencies of CMV-specific CD8(+) T cells were also higher in subjects experiencing late antigenemia (2.4% vs 0.57%). When we
One of the worlds leading bone marrow transplant experts is recommending a significant change to current transplant practice for patients who need marrow or adult stem cells from an unrelated donor to treat hematologic malignancies. Fred Appelbaum, M.D., director of the Clinical Research Division at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, asserts that bone marrow - not circulating, peripheral blood, which is the current norm - should be the source for unrelated donor adult stem cells for most patients who require a transplant. The reason: because there is less incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), which can be a debilitating side effect of transplantation.
Pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) is a chemosensitive malignancy, but about 30% of patients experience relapse. In most of these patients, a second complete remission is obtainable with salvage chemotherapy, though relapse free survival rates are as low as 30-60%. Herein, we report a 6-year-old boy with relapsed anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) positive ALCL successfully treated with vinblastine monotherapy followed by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), with a reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen, from his father. One HLA locus from the father was mismatched. The boy had neither severe graft-versus-host disease nor transplantation related complications. He is currently well and has remained disease free for 10 months, to date, since transplantation. Allo-HSCT with a RIC regimen may be a promising treatment strategy for relapsed ALK positive ALCL based on obtaining graft-versus lymphoma effects as well as reducing transplantation-related mortality.
Researchers at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center have developed biodegradable nanoparticles that can be used to genetically program immune cells to recognize and destroy cancer cells - while the immune cells are still inside the body.. In a proof-of-principle study to be published April 17 [2017] in Nature Nanotechnology, the team showed that nanoparticle-programmed immune cells, known as T cells, can rapidly clear or slow the progression of leukemia in a mouse model.. Our technology is the first that we know of to quickly program tumor-recognizing capabilities into T cells without extracting them for laboratory manipulation, said Fred Hutchs Dr. Matthias Stephan, the studys senior author. The reprogrammed cells begin to work within 24 to 48 hours and continue to produce these receptors for weeks. This suggests that our technology has the potential to allow the immune system to quickly mount a strong enough response to destroy cancerous cells before the disease becomes ...
The Avgousti lab at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center has an opening for a postdoctoral fellow. Our laboratory uses a multidisciplinary approach to investigate the mechanisms by which viruses hijack chromatin. Due to the major advancement in sequencing technologies and the expansion of the field of epigenetics, exploiting viruses to investigate chromatin biology has enormous potential. Our goal is to advance basic understanding of viral manipulation of chromatin and uncover new aspects of chromatin biology.. Much like the cellular genome, viral genomes are compacted in virus particles with small basic molecules to maximize space and be poised for gene expression. Some DNA viruses use cellular histone proteins to compact their genomes whereas others use small basic molecules. Adenoviruses encode their own histone-like protein, called protein VII, that forms a beads on a string assembly with the viral genome. By examining protein VII in host chromatin, we discovered that protein VII ...

Reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have allowed older patients and those with comorbidities to receive hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We analyzed medical costs from the beginning of conditioning to 100 days after HCT for 484 patients and up to 2 years for 311 patients who underwent a RIC HCT at two institutions from January 2008 to December 2010. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the association between clinical variables, center effect, and costs. Patient and transplant characteristics were comparable between the sites, although differences were seen in pretransplant performance scores. Significant predictors for lower costs for the first 100 days included a diagnosis of lymphoma/myeloma and use of human leukocyte antigen-matched related donors. Grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was associated with higher costs. The overall short-term costs between the two institutions were comparable when adjusted for clinical variables (p = .43). Late costs ...

Bone marrow transplantation, or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT), is the only curative therapy for many patients with leukemia. Certain immune cells, called T cells, contained in the donor HCT graft can cause a graft versus leukemia (GVL) effect which eliminates leukemic cells. Unfortunately, there are also donor T cells in the HCT graft that can cause a condition called graft versus host disease (GVHD). GVHD is a life-threatening immune response that remains the major barrier to the success of transplantation. Dr. ...

Mice given short courses of anti-CD4 and anti-CD8 monoclonal antibodies became tolerant of allogeneic skin grafted at the same time. Tolerance could be obtained without T cell depletion across multiple minor antigen mismatches, both in naive and primed animals, demonstrating that peripheral T cells could be tolerized, even if they had been previously activated. Where donor and recipient were incompatible across the whole major histocompatibility complex, specific tolerance could be achieved by using a combination of depleting followed by non-depleting antibodies, where each alone was unsuccessful. Although mice clearly tolerated their original skin grafts, we observed in some strain combinations that a second fresh, but genotypically identical graft, was slowly rejected. Such mice also possessed T cells which could proliferate to donor-type stimulator cells in vitro. Whatever the mechanisms, we have demonstrated that operational transplantation tolerance can be achieved with simple, non-toxic antibody
Graft-versus-host disease remains a major cause of transplant-related mortality. Interleukin-2 plus sirolimus synergistically reduces acute graft-versus-host disease in rodents and promotes regulatory T-cells. This phase II trial tested the hypothesis that interleukin-2 would facilitate STAT5 phosphorylation in donor T-cells, expand regulatory T-cells, and ameliorate graft-versus-host disease. Between 4/16/2014-12/19/2015, 20 patients received interleukin-2 (200,000IU/m2 thrice weekly, days 0 to +90) with sirolimus (5-14ng/ml) and tacrolimus (3-7ng/ml) after HLA-matched related or unrelated allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. The study was designed to capture an increase in regulatory T-cells from 16.0% to ,23.2% at day +30. Interleukin-2/sirolimus/tacrolimus significantly increased regulatory T-cells at day +30 compared to our published data with sirolimus/tacrolimus (23.8% versus 16.0%, P=0.0016; 0.052 k/ul versus 0.037 k/ul, P=0.0163), achieving the primary study endpoint.

SEATTLE - Study demonstrates that marrow transplantation using HLA-matched unrelated donors can be safe and effective therapy for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in chronic phase. Seattle researchers also believe that transplantation should not be limited to younger people, under the age of 40 years. Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center researchers published the results of their study in the April 2, 1998, issue of The New England Journal of Medicine.. Transplantation has been shown to be the cure for many blood disorders and inherited diseases, including CML. One obstacle has always been the identification of a suitably matched donor. Previously, it was believed that only those CML patients with an HLA-matched sibling donor had an option for curative treatment. This study concludes that marrow transplantation from an HLA-matched unrelated donor can be the treatment of choice for many CML patients and should be considered early in the course of disease to optimize ...

In this report, we describe a patient with severe aplastic anemia who developed a malignant B cell lymphoplasmacytoid proliferation 48 days after undergoing allogeneic marrow transplantation from her HLA-matched MLC-nonreactive brother. Immunologic studies showed this malignancy to be a mixed polyclonal and monoclonal proliferation in donor ceils. Virologie studies documented Epstein Bare infection of the cells. A review of the literature suggests that graft-versus-host disease and treatment of ...
A 60-year-old man presented with impaired consciousness and psychomotor agitation after a second allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from a matched unrelated donor for acute myeloid leukaemia. Clinical, biological and radiological evidence suggested a diagnosis of central nervous system graft-versus-host disease (CNS-GvHD). After intrathecal infusion of methylprednisolone, the clinical symptoms as well as the radiological abnormalities disappeared. The present report illustrates the difficulties in the diagnosis and the management of CNS-GvHD, a very rare and still challenging neurological complication that can occur after allogeneic HSCT. ...

N2 - Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) induces 2 closely associated immune responses: graft-versus-tumor (GVT) activity and graft- versus-host disease (GVHD). We have previously shown that pretransplant immunization of allogeneic BMT donors with a recipient-derived tumor cell vaccine increases both GVT activity and lethal GVHD because of the priming of donor T cells against putative minor histocompatibility antigens (mHAgs) on the tumor vaccine cells. The work reported here tested the hypothesis that tumor cell vaccination after BMT would produce an increase in GVT activity without exacerbating GVHD. C3H.SW donor bone marrow and splenocytes were transplanted into major histocompatibility ...
BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE: Patients with refractory or relapsed acute leukemia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation had a poor prognosis with high death rate due to relapse or transplant-related mortality (TRM). The purpose of this paper was to clarify the role of inducing acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) during transplantation in preventing relapse.. METHODS: Thirty adult patients with refractory or relapsed leukemia were acute lymphoblastic leukemia (n=16), acute myelogenous leukemia (n=10), and acute mixed leukemia (n=4). They were in first complete remission (n=4), second complete remission (n=9), partly remission (n=12), and non-response (n=5) at the time of transplantation. Patients underwent allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT) from HLA-identical siblings (n=21), mismatched siblings donors (n=3), and allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (n=5) or allo-PBSCT (n=1) from unrelated HLA matched donors. All patients received myeloablative ...

Highly diverse bacterial populations inhabit the gastrointestinal tract and modulate host inflammation and promote immune tolerance. In allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), the gastrointestinal mucosa is damaged, and colonizing bacteria are impacted, leading to an impaired intestinal microbiota with reduced diversity. We examined the impact of intestinal diversity on subsequent mortality outcomes following transplantation. Fecal specimens were collected from 80 recipients of allo-HSCT at the time of stem cell engraftment. Bacterial 16S rRNA gene sequences were characterized, and microbial diversity was estimated using the inverse Simpson index. Subjects were classified into high, intermediate, and low diversity groups, and assessed for differences in outcomes. Mortality outcomes were significantly worse in patients with lower intestinal diversity; overall survival at three years was 36%, 60%, and 67% for low, intermediate, and high diversity groups, respectively ...

N2 - Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) from an HLA-matched related or unrelated donor is a curative option for patients with high-risk hematological diseases. In the absence of a matched donor, patients have been offered investigational transplantation strategies such as umbilical cord blood SCT or family haploidentical SCT. Besides the activity of the conditioning regimen, most of the antileukemic potential of allo-SCT relies on alloreactivity, promoted by donor lymphocytes reacting against patient-specific antigens, such as minor and major histocompatibility antigens, ultimately translating into cancer immunotherapy. Unfortunately, alloreactivity is also responsible for the most ...

Extramedullary relapse of AML following allogeneic HSCT remains a poorly understood post-HSCT outcome. The incidence of extramedullary relapse in this study (10%) is consistent with previously reported rates over the past 35 years despite many changes in allogeneic HSCT practices.21,22 Although it is possible that patients with risk factors for extramedullary relapse are currently more likely to undergo allogeneic HSCT than they were in the past, it is more likely that the stable incidence reflects a lack of progress in this scenario. In this series of patients, we confirmed that the increased risk of extramedullary relapse for most previously reported risk factors, including pre-HSCT extramedullary disease, FAB M4/M5 AML, and advanced disease status, also apply to the post-HSCT setting.10,20 We did not, however, find there was an increased risk associated with CD56 or T-cell marker expression. While not surprising, our finding that patients with advanced disease status or high risk cytogenetics ...
Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation remains the only curative treatment of myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM). Previous reports have indicated significant treatment-related mortality (TRM) for patients transplanted after myeloablative conditioning but superior survival has been reported after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC). We report the results of a survey of all allogeneic transplantations for MMM performed in Sweden at six transplant units between 1982 and 2004. Twenty-seven patients were transplanted, 17 with a myeloablative conditioning regimen and 10 with RIC. The median age was 50 years (5-63 years) at transplantation. After a median follow up of 55 months, 20 patients are alive. TRM was 10% in the RIC group and 30% in the myeloablative group. There was no difference in survival for high or low-risk patients according to Cervantes score or between sibling and unrelated donor transplantations. © 2006 The Authors.. ...

Introduction. Cyclosporin (CSA) is commonly used as graft vs host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis in allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant (alloHSCT) recipients. The usual IV dose is 3mg/kg and the recommended oral dose at switching is 3mg/kg BD in the pre-posaconazole era (Inoue et al. 2014). Posaconazole is now commonly used as antifungal prophylaxis in this context; it increases CSA levels through inhibition of the cytochrome involved in CSA metabolism (Sánchez-Ortega et al. 2012). We evaluated CSA-related toxicity after switch from IV to oral CSA in alloHSCT recipients receiving posaconazole with the aim of defining the optimal weight based oral dose.. Methods. A retrospective audit was performed of adult alloHSCT patients between October 2015 and October 2017 who received IV and then oral CSA together with posaconazole prophylaxis. Posaconazole was commenced during conditioning and continued at 300mg IV or oral daily according to gastrointestinal tolerance; patients with levels below ...
These experiments explored mechanisms of control of acute lymphoblastic leukemia following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using a murine model of MHC-matched, minor histocompatibility antigen mismatched transplantation. The central hypothesis examined was that addition of active vaccination against leukemia cells would substantially increase the effectiveness of allogeneic donor lymphocyte infusion against ALL present in the host after transplant. While vaccination did increase the magnitude of type I T cell responses against leukemia cells associated with donor lymphocyte infusion, it did not lead to substantial improvement in long term survival. Analysis of immunological mechanisms of leukemia progression demonstrated that the failure of vaccination was not due to antigen loss in leukemia cells. However, analysis of survival provided surprising findings that, in addition to very modest type I T cell responses, a B cell response that produced antibodies that bind leukemia ...

Recipient sera were tested for HCV RNA prior to and following blood component infusion. Blood components from four donors were positive for HCV RNA. All recipients of HCV RNA-positive blood components became viremic on the first day tested post-infusion. In addition, two recipients of HCV RNA-negative blood ...
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established treatment for a variety of malignant diseases, as well as a small proportion of non-malignant disorders. The treatment before the HSCT (called conditioning) can be either myeloablative (MAC) or given with reduced intensity (RIC). MAC is associated with high toxicity due to high doses of chemotherapy with or without total body irradiation (TBI), and is used in both autologous and allogeneic HSCT. In autologous HSCT the patient is the donor, and in allogeneic HSCT the donor is a sibling or an unrelated donor. RIC regimens are associated with reduced toxicity and are only for patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT. Both autologous and allogeneic HSCT have a strong effect on the patients health-related quality of life (HRQL). The two studies in this thesis were initiated when RIC was introduced at a hematological department in south-east Sweden in 2001. The overall purpose was to evaluate HRQL in patients undergoing HSCT. The studies ...

Some aspects of allogeneic stem cell transplantation in patients with myelodysplastic syndrome: advances and controversy Olga Blau, Igor Wolfgang Blau Department of Hematology, Oncology and Tumor Immunology, Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Berlin, Germany Abstract: Myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is a heterogeneous group of myeloid disorders. MDS remains a disease of elderly patients; moreover, the incidence of high risk MDS is proportionally greater in elderly patients, with increased frequency of secondary acute myeloid leukemia, as well as adverse cytogenetic abnormalities. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is a therapeutic approach with known curative potential for patients with MDS that allows the achievement of long-term disease control. Numerous controversies still exist regarding transplantation in MDS: timing of transplantation, disease status at transplantation and comorbidity, conditioning intensity, pretransplant therapy, and stem cell source.

Background: Renal dysfunction after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been increasingly reported. However, there are few reports on the changes of the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in long-term survivors after allogeneic HSCT. Patients and methods: The medical records at Seoul St. Marys Hospital in Korea were reviewed to identify all adult (, 18 years of age) patients who had undergone high-dose chemotherapy and allogeneic HSCT between January 2001 and December 2005. Among these patients, those with , 5 years of follow-up and relapse within 5 years after HSCT were excluded. 85 patients were enrolled. Results: The mean follow-up was 76.0 +/- 13.5 months. The eGFR recorded 3 months after HSCT was significantly decreased compared with the eGFR recorded before HSCT. Subsequently, early decreased eGFR was maintained during the 60 months after HSCT. Multivariate analysis showed that acute kidney injury (AKI) during HSCT, hypertension (HTN) and eGFR before ...

This retrospective report compared the results of graft source on outcome after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) in patients with hematologic malignancies receiving a reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen. A total of 152 patients received either a RIC allo-SCT using a 9/10 mismatched unrelated donor (MisMUD, n=42) or a double unrelated umbilical cord blood (dUCB, n=110) graft. With a median follow-up of 30.3 months, the cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality was 26% in the dUCB group versus 24% in the MisMUD group (P=0.95). Grade 3-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) incidence was 19.7% in the dUCB group versus 21.4% in the MisMUD group (P=0.83). The cumulative incidence of extensive chronic GVHD at 2 years was 6.4% in the dUCB group versus 21.4% in the MisMUD group (P=0.02). The Kaplan-Meier estimate of overall survival at 2 years was comparable between both groups (52.3% (95% confidence interval (CI), 42.1-61.5%) in the dUCB group versus 47.9% (95% CI, 31.6-62.4%) in
