Abstract Introduction This study is to investigate the effect of late-onset hemorrhagic cystitis (LOHC) on progression-free survival (PFS) of patients after haploidentical peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-PBSCT). Methods This retrospective study enrolled 74 patients with hematological malignancies treated with a myeloablative conditioning regimen and haplo-PBSCT. The effect of LOHC on PFS was studied in terms of HC occurrence, grade, disease type, duration, onset time, gender, and age. Results There were 28 patients with LOHC, and no case was with early-onset HC. The cumulative incidence of LOHC was 37.8% (95% CI: 26.9–48.7%). The 2-year expected PFS of 74 patients and 34 AML patients was not significantly different between LOHC patients and patients without HC (P > 0.05). Among 27 ALL patients, the 2-year expected PFS of LOHC patients was 75%, significantly higher than patients without HC (54.2%) (P < 0.05). The 2-year expected PFSs of patients with mild LOHC and severe LOHC were 69.8 and 77.8%, respectively (P > 0.05). Similarly, the onset time, duration, age, and gender of LOHC patients did not show significant effects on PFS (P > 0.05). Conclusions After haplo-PBSCT, LOHC has a significant effect on the PFS of ALL patients. The HC grade, duration, onset time, gender, and age have no significant effect on PFS.

Abstract Autologous HCT (autoHCT) salvages many patients (pts) with relapsed lymphomas but few relapsing after an autoHCT are cured. We determined feasibility of stem cell collection, engraftment kinetics, treatment-related mortality (TRM), progression free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS) for a second autoHCT (HCT2) for lymphoma relapsing after prior HCT (HCT1). We studied 35 pts, 20 with HL and 15 with diffuse or follicular large cell and immunoblastic NHL, receiving a HCT2 for relapse between 1986 and 2003 and reported to the CIBMTR. Median (range) age at HCT2 was 36 yrs (16–61); 61% had a performance score less than 90. HCT2 was performed >1 year after HCT1 in 80%. Median (range) time from diagnosis to HCT1 was 20 mo (4–162 mo), from HCT1 to relapse, 17 mo (3–68 mo), and from relapse to HCT2, 5 mo (1–40 mo). 83% underwent a 2nd stem cell / marrow harvest prior to HCT2. Median time to ANC >0.5 x 109/L was 11d. CBV or BEAM were the conditioning regimens for HCT1 in 80% and for HCT2 in 60%. The best response to HCT2 was complete remission in 22 pts and partial remission in 5; 8 pts had either no response or progressive disease. At a median follow up of 92 mo (32–124 mo) after HCT2, 26 pts (74%) have died with 17 (65%) dying of relapsed lymphoma. Two (6%) patients developed therapy-related MDS. The probability of TRM at day 100 was 12% (95% CI, 3–25%). The 1, 3 and 5 yr probability of PFS were 45% (95% CI, 29–62%), 33% (95% CI, 18–50%) and 30% (95% CI, 15–46%), respectively. The 1, 3 and 5 yr probability of OS were 63% (95% CI, 46–78%), 34% (95% CI, 19–50%) and 31% (95% CI, 17–47%), respectively. There were no differences in outcomes between HL or NHL. Pts relapsing >6mo after HCT1 appeared to have better OS (fig 1 and 2). In summary, HCT2 is feasible in pts with lymphoma after relapsing an HCT1. Stem cells harvested prior to HCT2 resulted in rapid engraftment with a day 100 TRM (12%) lower than that reported for alloHCT in this setting. Relapse is the primary reason for failure, but approximately one-third of pts enjoy long-term disease free survival. HCT2 should be considered for young pts with relapsed HL or NHL post-HCT1 without alternative transplant options.

Abstract From May 1998 to November 2006, 77 HD patients who used the regimen of high dose cyclophosphamide HD (CY) 7 or 4g/m2, methotretaxe 8g/m2 and etoposide 2g/m2 followed by AHSCT were analyzed. Their median age was 25.8 (8.8–71.5) years, 46 males and 31 females. At diagnosis 50 (65%) were stage III or IV disease, 10 (13%) had bone marrow involvement, 29 (37.7%) bulky disease and 55 (71.4%) B symptoms. Besides that, all patients were submitted to a mean of 2 (1–4) chemotherapy lives and their status were 3 (3.9%) complete remission (CR), 17 (22.1%) partial remission (PR), 57 (74%) progression disease (PD) or in non-specified sensitivity relapse. Concerning CY dose 30 (39%) received 4 g/m2 and 47 (61%) received 7 g/m2. After the HDCY 16 (20.8%) were in CR, 22 (28.6%) PR, 28 (36.3%) remained in DP and 11 (14.3%) died most in PD. After a median follow-up of 3.97 (1.13–55.9) months, 53 (68.8%) patients were submitted to AHSCT and their present status is 30 alive [18 CR, 2PR and 10 DP]; 23 dead [2 CR, 14PD and 7 related to the procedure]. Overall survival for transplanted patients was 55% in 8 years. Currently we have 33/77 (43%) alive patients, 19 CR, 3 PR, 11 PD. Overall Survival (OS) for whole group was 32%, Disease Free Survival (DFS) 64% and Progression Free Survival (PFS) 40%. Patients who were in DP or relapse prior to the HDCY (57) compared to their status after that had a significant improvement (P=0,001), their OS was 40% to CR-PR group (24) versus 16% PD group (33). In general, mortality was 44 (57%), their cause was 19 PD (43.2%), 8 (18.2%) related to HDCY, 2 (4.5%) related to HDMTX, 7 (16%) related to AHSCT, 6 (13.6%) infections, 1 (2.3%) chronic GVHD after a reduced intensity conditioning regimen transplant and 1 (2.2%) AML. Besides that, 3 patients developed MDS and 1 developed AML. In conclusion, although it had happened a significant number of toxicity related deaths, the sequence is feasible, mainly for sensitive patients and presents an acceptable response. The authors emphasize the high frequency of poor prognosis patients and occurrence of MDS/AML in 4 (5.2%) patients.

PURPOSE A phase I/II study was performed to evaluate the incorporation of hydroxyurea (HU) into high-dose chemotherapy of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). PATIENTS AND METHODS Thirty-eight patients with primary refractory and refractory relapsed NHL were treated with carmustine (BCNU) (300 mg/m2 on day -8), cyclophosphamide (Cy) (2.5 g/m2/d on days -8 and -7), etoposide (E) (150 mg/m2 every 12 hours on days -6, -5, and -4), and HU (BCHE) with autologous hematopoietic stem-cell rescue. Twenty-one patients received HU in a dose escalation of 2 to 12 g/m2 intravenously (IV) by 72-hour continuous infusion. When the IV formulation was not available, 17 patients were given 18 g/m2 of HU orally in divided doses every 6 hours over the same 72-hour period. RESULTS The dose-limiting toxicity of 72-hour continuous infusion HU in this regimen was mucositis. Endotracheal intubation was necessary to protect the airway in two thirds of patients treated at 12 g/m2. Six patients (oral BCHE, five of 17; IV BCHE, one of 21) died with nonresponding or progressive disease and, at least in part, from the complications of the high-dose chemotherapy. Seventeen patients (45%) achieved complete remission (CR). More patients treated with IV BCHE achieved CR than patients treated with oral BCHE (12 of 21 v five of 17; P < .1, chi 2 test). Nine patients (two of 17 oral BCHE and seven of 21 IV BCHE) remain disease-free as of January 31, 1994, with a minimum follow-up time of 3 years. The lower mortality and higher response rate with IV BCHE translated into a significantly superior probability of progression-free survival (PFS) (33% at 4 year v 12% for oral BCHE; P = .048, log-rank test). CONCLUSION High-dose BCHE is effective treatment for primary refractory and refractory relapsed NHL. Continuous IV HU appears to be less toxic and more effective than intermittent oral HU in this regimen.
