We retrospectively analyzed the B-cell function and leukocyte chimerism of 22 patients with severe combined immunodeficiency with B cells (B+ SCID) who survived more than 2 years after bone marrow transplantation (BMT) to determine the possible consequences of BMT procedures, leukocyte chimerism, and SCID molecular deficit on B-cell function outcome. Circulating T cells were of donor origin in all patients. In recipients of HLA-identical BMT (n = 5), monocytes were of host origin in 5 and B cells were of host origin in 4 and of mixed origin in 1. In recipients of HLA haploidentical T-cell–depleted BMT (n = 17), B cells and monocytes were of host origin in 14 and of donor origin in 3. Engraftment of B cells was found to be associated with normal B-cell function. In contrast, 10 of 18 patients with host B cells still require Ig substitution. Conditioning regimen (ie, 8 mg/kg busulfan and 200 mg/kg cyclophosphamide) was shown neither to promote B-cell and monocyte engraftment nor to affect B-cell function. Eight patients with B cells of host origin had normal B-cell function. Evidence for functional host B cells was further provided in 3 informative cases by Ig allotype determination and by the detection, in 5 studied cases, of host CD27+ memory B cells as in age-matched controls. These results strongly suggest that, in some transplanted patients, host B cells can cooperate with donor T cells to fully mature in Ig-producing cells.

Abstract We describe our 9-year experience with lectin-treated T-cell-depleted haplocompatible parental bone marrow transplantation (BMT) for 24 patients with severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID). Nineteen of 21 evaluable patients had T-cell engraftment; 2 of 11 patients tested had B-cell and monocyte engraftment. Fourteen of 24 (58%) patients are alive 7 months to 9.8 years post-BMT. Seventeen of 24 patients received pretransplant conditioning with chemotherapy and/or total body irradiation, and 8 of 24 received more than one transplant. Patients who received conditioning had a survival rate of 61% versus 57% for those who received no conditioning. None received graft-versus- host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and no patient had acute or chronic GVHD greater than grade I. Kinetics and follow-up of immune recovery were analyzed in 14 patients who are greater than 1 year from transplant. Half of the patients showed evidence of T-cell function by 3 months and normal T-cell function by 4 to 7 months post-BMT. On average, T-cell numbers and subsets became normal 10 to 12 months posttransplant. Recovery of B-cell function was more delayed, although in most patients B-cell numbers and IgM levels were normal by 12 months post-BMT. B-cell function, as determined by isohemagglutinin titers or specific antibodies to pneumococcal polysaccharide, keyhole limpet hemocyanin, or tetanus toxoid, became normal in 10 of 14 patients 2 to 8 years post-BMT. Seven of the 14 are off gammaglobulin therapy. Production of isohemagglutinins tended to predict recovery of antibody response to pneumococcal polysaccharide (P < .064). Based on these results, we believe that haplocompatible BMT is an effective, curative treatment for patients with SCID who lack an HLA-matched related donor.

Abstract Twenty-four patients with aplastic anemia or acute leukemia were treated by marrow grafts from HLA-identical donors after conditioning with high doses of cyclophosphamide and/or today body irradiation. They were studied between 4 and 63 mo (median 14.2) after transplantation. Seventeen patients had chronic graft-versus-host disease (C-GVHD) and 7 were healthy. They were studied for defects in their T- and B-cell function using and indirect hemolytic plaque assay for Ig production after 6 days of culture in the presence of pokeweek mitogen. T or B cells from the patients with or without C-GVHD were cocultured with T or B cells from their HLA-identical marrow donors or unrelated normal controls. Intrinsic B-cell defects, lack of helper T-cell activity, and suppressor T-cell activity were more frequently found in patients with C-GVHD than in healthy patients. Fifteen of the 17 patients with C-GVHD showed on or more defects in their T-and B-cell function compared to only 3 of the 7 patients without C-GVHD. None of the healthy controls, including the marrow donors, showed defects in their T- and B-cell functions. These in vitro findings may be helpful in assessing the process of immune reconstitution and the immunologic aberration found after human marrow transplantation.
