Differential impact of allelic ratio and insertion site in FLT3-ITD-positive AML with respect to allogeneic transplantation.
2014
The objective was to evaluate the prognostic and predictive impact of allelic ratio and insertion site (IS) of internal tandem duplications (ITDs), as well as concurrent gene mutations, with regard to postremission therapy in 323 patients with FLT3-ITD-positive acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Increasing FLT3-ITD allelic ratio (P = .004) and IS in the tyrosine kinase domain 1 (TKD1, P = .06) were associated with low complete remission (CR) rates. After postremission therapy including intensive chemotherapy (n = 121) or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT, n = 17), an allelic ratio ≥ 0.51 was associated with an unfavorable relapse-free (RFS, P = .0008) and overall survival …
Chromosomal abnormalities in women with breast cancer after autologous stem cell transplantation are infrequent and may not predict development of th…
2000
We determined prospectively the incidence of chromosomal abnormalities in patients with high-risk breast cancer (HRBC) after high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT), and correlated the cytogenetic abnormalities with the development of post-transplant myelodysplastic syndrome or acute myeloid leukemia (MDS/AML). From 1990 to 1999, 229 women with HRBC underwent ASCT. Cytogenetic analysis of bone marrow (BM) cells was performed 12–59 months after ASCT in 60 consecutive women uniformly treated with six courses of FAC/FEC followed by HDCT and ASCT. With a median follow-up of 36 months after ASCT, there were no cases of MDS/AML among the 229 patients. In the …
P043 HLA-DPB matching and donor cytomegalovirus positive (CMV+) status: An “unconventional alliance” associated with a decreased relapse incidence in…
2017
Aim While the role of HLA-DPB1 (DP) compatibility in uHSCT regarding graft versus host disease (GVHD)- and graft versus leukaemia (GVL)-effects has been extensively discussed, its interaction with donor CMV status (dCMV), remains elusive. The aim of this study was, to investigate the impact of dCMV status in DP matched (DPM) and mismatched (DPMM) uHSCT. Methods 1749 HSCT transplant (Tx) pairs were DP genotyped with an exon 2 amplicon based NGS approach in order to assess their DP matching status. CMV sero-status as well as clinical data were retrieved from the German Stem Cell Registry. Overall survival (OS), relapse incidence (RI) and chronic GvHD (cGvHD) were defined as endpoints, while s…
Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation With Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide Therapy vs Other Donor Transplantations in Adults With Hematologic Canc…
2019
Question What are the outcomes of haploidentical stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide therapy compared with other transplant types in adults with hematologic cancers? Findings In this meta-analysis of 30 studies including 22974 patients, the use of haploidentical stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide therapy appeared to show increased all-cause mortality compared with matched related donors, similar all-cause mortality compared with matched unrelated donors, and reduced all-cause mortality compared with mismatched unrelated donors. Relapse appeared to be increased in lymphoma and similar in acute leukemia compared with matched unrelated don…
Evaluation of six different types of sequential conditioning regimens for allogeneic stem cell transplantation in relapsed/refractory acute myelogeno…
2020
The Acute Leukemia Working Party (ALWP) of the EBMT assessed the outcome of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) in patients with relapsed/refractory AML (r/rAML) evaluating six sequential conditioning regimens (SR) groups. A total of 2132 patients were included. LFS at 2 years was 28.9%, 33.6%, 35.3%, 20.6%, 24.4%, and 27% for the FLAMSA-TBI4, FLAMSA-Chemo, Mel-Flu-TBI8, Mel-Treo-Flu, Thio-ETO-Cy-Bu2-Flu, and Clo-ARAC-(Bu2/TBI4)-Cy groups, respectively. In patients55 years of age Mel-Flu-TBI8 had the best LFS, which was statistically significant only in comparison to the Mel-Treo-Flu group, while in patients ≥55 years LFS was best with FLAMSA-Chemo without significant differences…

To investigate why higher CPSS scores were associated with higher mortality, we performed analysis restricted to patients with relapse following HCT. Those with intermediate-2/high riskhadnearly two-fold increase in riskof death after relapse compared to thosewith low/intermediate1 CPSS scores. Corresponding rates for low/intermediate-1 risk groups,OSat1year, 3years, and5yearswere61%,48%, and44% respectivelyand for intermediate-2/high riskgroupswere 38%, 32%, and19%respectively.OSofpatientswho receivedpre-HCT treatment with hypomethylating agents, chemotherapy, or both was not different compared to th…
Lenalidomide Maintenance After Autologous Stem-Cell Transplantation in Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma: A Meta-Analysis
2017
Purpose Lenalidomide maintenance therapy after autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT) demonstrated prolonged progression-free survival (PFS) versus placebo or observation in several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM). All studies had PFS as the primary end point, and none were powered for overall survival (OS) as a primary end point. Thus, a meta-analysis was conducted to better understand the impact of lenalidomide maintenance in this setting. Patients and Methods The meta-analysis was conducted using primary-source patient-level data and documentation from three RCTs (Cancer and Leukemia Group B 100104, Gruppo Italiano Malatti…
Analysis of relapse after transplantation in acute leukemia: A comparative on second allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation and donor lymphocy…
2018
Relapse of acute leukemia (AL) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (Allo-HCT) entails a dismal prognosis. In this scenario, donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs) and second Allo-HCT are two major approaches. We compared outcomes of AL patients treated for relapse with DLI or second Allo-HCT after receiving debulking therapy. In total, 46 patients were included in the study; 30 (65%) had acute myeloid leukemia and 16 (35%) had acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The median age was 38 years (range 4-66). Twenty-seven patients received a second Allo-HCT and 19 patients received DLI. The median follow-up of the cohort was 273 days (range 9-7013). Overall survival (OS), disease-free surviv…
Survival of elderly patients with multiple myeloma-Effect of upfront autologous stem cell transplantation
2016
Abstract Background The aim of this study was to determine the value of upfront autologous transplantation (ASCT) in elderly patients (60–79 years) with myeloma. Methods We analysed relative survival (RS) of patients diagnosed in 1998–2011 and treated with ASCT within 12 months after diagnosis in Germany (n = 3591; German Registry of Stem Cell Transplantation) and compare RS with survival of myeloma patients diagnosed in the same years in Germany (n = 13,903; population-based German Cancer Registries). Results Utilisation of ASCT has increased rapidly between 2000–2002 and 2009–2011 (60–64years: 7.0–43.0%; 65–69 years: 6.6–23.7%; 70–79 years: 0.4–4.0%). Comparison of 5-year RS of patients f…
Centre characteristics and procedure-related factors have an impact on outcomes of allogeneic transplantation for patients with CLL: a retrospective …
2017
Abstract Introduction:Even in the era of novel targeted therapies for the treatment of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) patients, such as BTK, PI3K and BCL2 inhibitors, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (alloHCT) will remain an important treatment option for a subset of patients with very high risk CLL. The current study focused on the impact of center and procedure-related factors on outcomes after alloHCT, taking into account the impact of patient- and disease-related risk factors. Patients and Methods:Data of 684 CLL patients who received a first alloHCT between 2000 and 2011 were analyzed. Their data were collected as part of the EBMT CLL Data Quality Initiative. Out…
