ML-18 High-dose chemotherapy supported by autologous stem cell transplant in relapsed and refractory primary CNS lymphoma

While whole brain radiation therapy (WBRT) has been performed as consolidation therapy in primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL), high-dose chemotherapy supported by autologous stem cell transplant (HDC/ASCT) is widely investigated today as an alternative treatment strategy, given the high risk for radiation-induced neurotoxicity in WBRT. Various conditioning regimens have been investigated in phase II trials, which report non-inferiority of HDC/ASCT in efficacy and preservation of neurocognitive function in comparison with WBRT. Besides its promising efficacy, treatment-related deaths are reported in 11% in patients treated by a conditioning regimen using thiotepa, busulfan and cyclophosphamide (TBC), which raises a concern for safety. Among several conditioning regimens, analysis using registry data of Japan Society for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation has revealed that the use of conditioning regimens containing thiotepa was a positive factor for longer PFS. According to the result of a phase I trial in Japan which investigated HDC/ASCT using thiotepa and busulfan (BuTT), thiotepa was approved by the pharmaceuticals and medical devices agency (PMDA) on March 2020. In comparison with the TBC regimen, cyclophosphamide is omitted, and the dose of thiotepa is lower (250 mg/m2, 3 days in TBC; 5 mg/kg, 2 days in BuTT) in BuTT, therefore BuTT could be less toxic in comparison with TBC, and no treatment-related deaths were observed in the phase I study in Japan. Further investigation on the efficacy and safety of BuTT in actual clinical practice is warranted. We have constituted a multi-disciplinary team in our institution in order to perform HDC/ASCT using BuTT in relapsed/refractory PCNSL. Treatment indications are as follows; 65 years old or younger, previously treated by rituximab, methotrexate, procarbazine and vincristine (R-MPV), good organ function and neurological status. Future directions along with preliminary treatment results will be discussed at the meeting.

CONDITIONING REGIMEN FOR LANGERHANS HISTIOCYTOSIS

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a rare disease, with an estimated incidence of 0.5 per 100,000 children in the United States of America1. HCL occurs due to differentiation of myeloid precursors into CD1a+ / CD207+ cells and is characterized by constitutional activation of the MAPK2 signaling pathway, leading to a spectrum of organ involvement and dysfunction. Treatment of HCL is risk-adjusted: single lesions may respond to local treatment whereas multisystem disease requires systemic therapy. Although survival for patients without organ dysfunction is excellent3, mortality in those with compromised organs at risk (hematopoietic system, liver, and/or spleen) reaches 20%2,4. Despite the progress made in the treatment of HCL, disease reactivation rates remain above 30% and the best second-line treatment has not yet been established. Treatment failure is associated with increased morbidity and mortality, including an association with neurodegeneration2. As it is a rare disease and generally has a good prognosis, few scientific studies are evaluating the role of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in the treatment of this disease. In 2015 Veys et al5 published retrospective results of 87 high-risk patients transplanted between 1990 and 2013. Myeloablative conditioning regimens (MAC) based on total body irradiation or busulfan6 were the most used until the 2000s, and reduced-intensity conditioning regimens (RIC) – predominantly a combination of Melphalan and Fludarabine – were most used between 2000 and 2013. Transplant-associated mortality rates in 3 years were similar between RIC and MAC conditioning regimens (21% versus 15%, respectively). Recurrence was higher in the RIC group compared to the MAC group (28% versus 8%, respectively), however, the 3-year overall survival (OS) was similar (77% versus 71%, respectively), since the patients who relapsed after RIC transplantation could be rescued with chemotherapy. More recently, Kudo et al7 published a retrospective study with 30 patients with refractory LCH who underwent HSCT between 1996 and 2014. Eleven patients received myeloablative conditioning regimen based on total body radiotherapy (RCT) with a dose equal to or greater than 8 Gy or busulfan, and 19 of reduced intensity based on Fludarabine and Melphalan, associated or not with low dose of RCT. There was no significant difference between the conditioning regimen modalities, with OS of 56.8% for the RIC group and 63.6% for the MAC group. Disease status was the main prognostic factor, with a 5-year OS of 100% for patients who arrived at HSCT with disease in remission or with partial remission, versus 54.5% for those who had active disease at the time of the procedure. Regarding the type of donor used and the source of stem cells, there is great variation, with greater frequency for unrelated and extensive use of bone marrow and umbilical cord, and apparently, there is no impact on survival rates.5, 6 There are few case reports and extremely restricted performance of autologous HSCT in HCL.

Clofarabine-fludarabine-busulfan in HCT for pediatric leukemia: an effective, low toxicity, TBI-free conditioning regimen

We prospectively studied CloFluBu-conditioning in allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Therapy (HCT) for lymphoid- and myeloid malignancies, and hypothesized that CloFluBu provides a less toxic alternative to conventional conditioning regimens, with adequate anti-leukemic activity. All patients receiving their first HCT, from 2011-2019, were included and received CloFluBu. Primary endpoint was Event Free Survival (EFS). Secondary endpoints were Overall Survival (OS), Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GvHD)-Relapse-Free Survival (GRFS), Treatment Related Mortality (TRM), Cumulative Incidence of Relapse (CIR), acute and chronic GvHD, and veno-occlusive disease (VOD). Cox Proportional Hazard- and Fine and Gray competing-risk models were used for data analysis. 155 Children were included; 60 acute lymphoid leukemia (ALL), 69 acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and 26 other malignancies (mostly MDS-EB). Median age was 9.7 (0.5-18.6) years. Estimated 2-yr EFS was 72.0% ± 6.0 in ALL, and 62.4% ± 6.0 in AML patients. TRM in the whole cohort was 11.0% ± 2.6, incidence of aGvHD III-IV at 6 months was 12.3% ± 2.7, extensive chronic GvHD at 2-yr was 6.4% ± 2.1. Minimal residual disease-positivity prior to HCT was associated with higher CIR, both in ALL and AML. CloFluBu showed limited toxicity and encouraging EFS. CloFluBu is a potentially less toxic alternative to conventional conditioning regimens. Randomized prospective studies are needed.

Long-term outcomes of busulfan plus melphalan-based versus melphalan 200 mg/m2 conditioning regimens for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Background High-dose melphalan (HDMEL, 200 mg/m2) is considered as the standard conditioning regimen for autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) in multiple myeloma (MM). However, whether the combination of melphalan with busulfan (BUMEL) conditioning outperforms HDMEL remains controversy. Accordingly, a systematic review and meta-analysis was carried out to compare the outcomes of HDMEL and BUMEL-based conditioning regimens in newly diagnosed MM patients having undergone auto-HSCT. Methods A systematic literature search was conducted in PubMed, Embase and Cochrane Library database until July 31, 2021, to identify all eligible studies comparing progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), optimal treatment response after auto-HSCT, duration of stem cell engraftment and incidence of toxic events between patients undergoing BUMEL-based and HDMEL conditioning regimens. Hazard ratio (HR), mean difference (MD) or odds ratio (OR) corresponding to 95% confidence interval (CI) were determined to estimate outcomes applying RevMan 5.4 software. Publication biases were assessed by performing Egger’s test and Begg’s test by Stata 15 software. Results Ten studies with a total of 2855 MM patients were covered in the current meta-analysis. The results of this study demonstrated that patients having received BUMEL-based regimen was correlated with longer PFS (HR 0.77; 95% CI 0.67~0.89, P = 0.0002) but similar OS (HR 1.08; 95% CI 0.92~1.26, P = 0.35) compared with those having received HDMEL. The differences of best treatment response after auto-HSCT and duration of neutrophil or platelet engraftment did not have statistical significance between the two groups of patients. With respect to adverse effects, the patients in BUMEL-based group were less frequently subject to gastrointestinal toxicity while the patients in HDMEL group less often experienced mucositis and infection. No significant difference was observed in hepatic toxicity between the two groups of patients. Conclusions In the present study, BUMEL-based conditioning was identified as a favorable regimen for a better PFS and equivalent OS as compared with HDMEL, which should be balanced against higher incidences of mucositis and infection. BUMEL-based conditioning is likely to act as an alternative strategy to more effectively improve auto-HSCT outcomes in MM.

Prognostic Impacts of Additional Cytogenetic Abnormalities Acquired at the First Relapse in Adult Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia Undergoing Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant in Second Complete Remission

Background: Additional cytogenetic abnormalities (ACA), the most frequent form of cytogenetic changes, are considered as a result of genetic instability and clonal evolution of leukemia cells. Recently, we described that ACA at the first relapse was associated with the significantly lower second complete remission (CR2) rate and poor survival in adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients (Hematol Oncol. 2018;36:252-257). However, the prognostic impact of ACA after allogeneic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) has not been elucidated in adult AML patients. Patients and methods: Of the 145 adult AML patients who underwent the first allo-SCT in CR2 between 1997 and 2019, 98 patients whose cytogenetic abnormality data both at diagnosis and at the first relapse were available were included in this study. Cytogenetic changes between at diagnosis and the first relapse were classified into four groups: (1) no change, (2) ACA was acquired at the first relapse, (3) cytogenetic abnormalities observed at diagnosis were reduced or had disappeared at the first relapse, and (4) cytogenetic abnormalities observed at diagnosis were reduced or had disappeared, and completely different ACA was acquired at the first relapse. In this study, groups 2 and 4 were defined as ACA acquisition. Overall survival (OS) was defined as the interval from the date of transplant to the date of death. Fisher's exact test was used to compare binary variables. The cumulative incidence (CI) of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse were evaluated with Gray's test, considering relapse and NRM as a competing risk, respectively. OS was estimated with the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test. Factors associated with at least borderline significance (p < 0.20) in univariate analyses were subjected to multivariate analysis. The Cox and Fine-Gray proportional hazard model were used for multivariate analysis of prognostic and risk factors, respectively. Values of p < 0.05 were considered to indicate statistical significance. Results: Of the 98 patients included in this study, 57 were male, and 41 were female. The median age at transplant was 45 years (range, 17-71 years). The median duration of CR1 was 12.4 months (range, 1.3-70.3 months) and cytogenetic risk groups were good, intermediate, and poor in 26 (27%), 70 (71%), and two patients (2%), respectively. Donor types were related, unrelated, and cord blood in 23 (24%), 59 (60%), and 16 patients (16%), respectively, and 86 (87%) and 61 patients (62%) were conditioned with myeloablative and total body irradiation-containing regimens, respectively. According to the definition described above, 20 patients (20%) acquired ACA at the first relapse. There was no significant difference in baseline characteristics and transplant procedures between patients with and without ACA acquisition. The OS rates were not significantly different between two groups (55% vs. 72% at three years after transplant; p = 0.28). The CI of relapse was significantly higher in patients with ACA acquisition than those without ACA acquisition (59% vs. 15%; p < 0.01), while the CI of NRM were not significantly different between two groups (5% vs. 19%; p = 0.17). Multivariate analysis for OS revealed that age over 50 years (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.4; p < 0.01), but not ACA acquisition, was identified as an independent prognostic factor. ACA acquisition (HR = 4.7; p < 0.01) was extracted as an independent risk factor of relapse, while use of reduced intensity conditioning regimens (HR = 3.1; p = 0.03) and more than or equal to 1 of performance status at transplant (HR = 2.7; p = 0.04) showed independent risks of NRM. The similar OS rates between two groups might resulted from an offset of the lower relapse rate with the higher NRM rate in patients without ACA acquisition despite not reaching statistical significance. This increasing NRM rates in those without ACA acquisition was potentially associated with use of reduced intensity conditioning regimens in larger proportion (0% vs. 15%; p = 0.12). Conclusion: These findings suggested that ACA acquisition at the first relapse was associated with a higher risk of relapse even after allo-SCT in CR2 in adult AML patients. As AML cells with ACA acquisition was resistant to not only chemotherapy but also graft-versus-leukemia effect, innovative therapeutic strategy is warranted.

Single Agent CD117-Targeted Antibody Drug Conjugate in Combination with Lymphodepleting Antibodies Enables Allogenic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Mice without Chemotherapy or Radiation

Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is a highly effective and potentially curative treatment for malignant and non-malignant blood disorders. However, patient eligibility for this procedure can be limited due to the mortality and morbidity risks associated with current conditioning regimens, including organ toxicity, infertility, and secondary malignancies. We have developed a novel anti-CD117 antibody drug conjugate (ADC) that, in combination with lymphodepleting antibodies, can effectively condition mice to support a full allogeneic (allo) transplant. Specifically, we used a tool anti-mouse (anti-m) CD117-PBD ADC in combination with anti-mCD4 and CD8 depleting antibodies and assessed the ability of the combination to successfully condition in a murine model of allo-HSCT. Our tool ADC, anti-mCD117-PBD, was engineered for rapid clearance to enable a timely HSCT following conditioning. A single dose of 1 mg/kg robustly depleted long-term hematopoietic stem cells (LT-HSC) by 97% compared to PBS controls in C57BL/6 mice. We first evaluated the ability of single doses of 1 and 3 mg/kg anti-mCD117-PBD to condition for transplant in a congenic mouse model (C57BL/6 hosts [CD45.2+] with B6.SJL-Ptprca Pepcb/boyJ donors [CD45.1+]). We then evaluated conditioning with a single dose of 3 mg/kg anti-mCD117-PBD, in combination with 250 μg/mouse anti-mCD4 (GK1.5) and anti-mCD8 (YTS 169.4) antibody, in a fully mismatched allo transplant model (C57BL/6 hosts [CD45.2+] with CByJ.SJL(B6)-ptprca/J donors [CD45.1+]). In both studies, a dose matched non-targeted isotype-PBD (iso-PBD) was used as a negative control, while 9 Gy total body irradiation (TBI) was used as a fully myeloablative positive control. Anti-rat (anti-r) IgG isotype (LTF-2) was used as a negative lymphodepletion control antibody in the allo-HSCT study. Conditioned mice were transplanted with 2e7 whole BM cells. Lymphodepleting antibodies were dosed daily for three consecutive days before transplant. Peripheral blood chimerism was assessed over 16 weeks (congenic model) to 24 weeks (allo model), at which time donor HSC chimerism was evaluated in the terminal bone marrow. In the congenic HSCT model, conditioning recipient mice with a single dose of 3 mg/kg anti-mCD117-PBD enabled robust donor chimerism in the peripheral blood and bone marrow, as well as reconstitution of the T-, B- and myeloid cell compartments, that was comparable to the 9 Gy TBI positive control for myeloablative conditioning. Treatment with the iso-PBD control at 3 mg/kg was not effective at enabling HSC engraftment. In the fully mismatched allo-HSCT model, recipient mice conditioned with 3 mg/kg anti-mCD117-PBD in combination with 250 μg/mouse lymphodepleting anti-mCD4 + anti-mCD8 antibodies enabled full donor chimerism, achieving >90% engraftment by week 12 in the peripheral blood which was sustained through the end of the study at week 24 (Figure 1A). Multilineage reconstitution of immune cell subsets was also observed in this study, with >90% donor chimerism seen in the B cell and myeloid compartments and T cell reconstitution above 75% (Figure 1B-D). There was 99% donor HSC engraftment in the bone marrow at study termination (Figures 1E & F). These results were comparable to the chimerism observed in the 9 Gy TBI positive control mice. Groups conditioned with the non-targeting iso-PBD or anti-rIgG isotype antibody controls did not support donor engraftment in the model. In conclusion, conditioning with 3 mg/kg anti-mCD117-PBD, in combination with lymphodepleting antibodies anti-mCD4 and anti-mCD8, enables complete donor chimerism in a fully mismatched allo-HSCT murine model. This targeted conditioning approach could offer a more favorable risk-benefit profile over currently available conditioning regimens and could extend the curative potential of allo-HSCT to more patients with malignant and non-malignant diseases who otherwise would not be eligible for HSCT.

Impacts of Total Body Irradiation in Allogeneic Umbilical Cord Blood Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Background: Umbilical cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplant (UCBT) has been practiced as an alternative source of hematopoietic stem cells for patients in need of transplantation. Double-units UCBT has been established as a means of achieving a cell dose of at least 2.5x10 7 nucleated cells per kilogram of body weight in adult recipients. The advantages of UCBT include its rapid availability, reduced stringency in terms of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) match requirements, and subsequent increase in access to transplants for racial minorities. Both related and unrelated UCBTs with single or double units have been performed with high rates of success in both pediatric and adult settings to treat a variety of medical conditions. Prior to undergoing UCBT, recipients must undergo a conditioning regimen to create space in the bone marrow, suppress the immune system to allow for donor stem cell engraftment, and reduce the tumor burden in cases of neoplastic disease. Total body irradiation (TBI) is commonly incorporated into conditioning regimens to enforce these efforts. Although intense myeloablation in general is associated with a lower risk of relapse and graft rejection, greater regimen intensity also leads to a higher rate of transplant related morbidity and mortality (TRM). Inclusion of TBI specifically in conditioning regimens has been shown to result in organ toxicity and subsequent malignant neoplasm. To help mitigate the risks of myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimens, non-TBI and reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have been investigated as a means of reducing TRM and increasing access of transplantation to patients with age disadvantages or significant comorbidities. Despite ongoing investigation, studies comparing conditioning regimens of UCBT, with and without TBI, remain limited. This study, using real-world data collected from 4 institutions, retrospectively analyzed the impact of TBI as part of MAC or RIC conditioning regimens in patients undergoing UCBT. Methods: This is a retrospective study that analyzed the outcomes of 136 patients receiving umbilical cord blood transplants at four institutions. Seventy-nine patients received myeloablative condition (MAC), in which 36 underwent TBI and 33 did not; 67 patients received reduced-intensity condition (RIC), in which 24 underwent TBI and 43 did not. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to compare the outcomes and the post-transplant complications between patients who did and did not undergo TBI in MAC subgroup and RIC subgroup, respectively. Results: Characteristics of UCBT recipients who did and did not undergo TBI, stratified by conditioning regimen were compared with both multivariate and univariate analyses and didn't see significant difference. We didn't observe significant difference in GVHD and transplant-related infection incidence rates between patient subgroup that did and did not undergo TBI as part of their pre-UCBT conditioning regimen via both multivariate and univariate analyses. In RIC subgroup, the patients who underwent TBI appeared to have superior overall survival (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR]=0.25, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.09-0.66, p=0.005) (Figure 1), progression-free survival (aHR=0.26, 95% CI: 0.10-0.66, p=0.005) (Figure 2), and shorter time to neutrophil engraftment (aHR=6.26, 95% CI: 2.27 - 17.31, p=0.0004) (Figure 3). However, in MAC subgroup, there were no statistically significant difference between using and not using TBI. There were also no differences between the patients who either underwent or not underwent TBI in terms of acute or chronic GVHD rates or rates of transplant-related infections in both subgroups. Conclusion: Combining with RIC, TBI may improve OS, PFS, and neutrophil engraftment time. However, the incidences of other post-transplant complication were comparable between patients who underwent and did not undergo TBI as part of conditioning regimens during umbilical cord blood transplant.

Pharmacogenomics of Fludarabine in Pediatric HCT Recipients: Preliminary Results

Introduction: Total Body Irradiation (TBI) conditioning regimens are considered standard of care for pediatric hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) recipients. However, TBI has many long-term effects, so avoiding it in young HCT recipients is critical. Fludarabine is frequently used in combination with other chemotherapeutic agents like busulfan and/or thiotepa in non-TBI based conditioning regimens. While multi-drug conditioning aims to avoid TBI-related late-effects, little is known about the effect of variations in genes that metabolize these drugs (pharmacogenomics/PGx) on clinical outcomes including engraftment, relapse, and acute drug-related toxicities. In this study, we investigated the pharmacogenomic effects on HCT outcomes such as event-free outcomes and re-transplantation outcomes, as well as fludarabine's pharmacokinetics (PK). Methods: This ongoing study included pediatric patients from a nationwide multi-center study who received fludarabine in combination with other agents as busulfan and thiotepa. From literature searches and PharmGKB databases, we selected 70 SNPs in 30 candidate pharmacological genes for these drug pathways. SNPs with a minor allele frequency of 10% were further selected for analysis with different endpoints such as: 1) Cumulative incidence with disease relapse with re-transplantation (using Gray's methods, controlling for competing risks); 2) fludarabine PK with cumulative area under the curve (cAUC); 3) 1-month-post-transplant chimerism levels defined as sufficient (CD3 ≥80% and CD14/15 ≥95% chimerism) and insufficient (CD3 <80% and CD14/15 <95% chimerism); and 4) event-free outcomes (comparing patients alive and well vs. others) OR alive re-transplantation outcomes (alive with vs. without re-transplantation). SNPs with an association p-value <0.05 were considered significant using generalized linear models from the SNPassoc R package. Results: Total of 87 patients included in the analysis had a median age of 3.5 (0.2 - 17.9) years, 63% were male, 48% were Caucasian, 85% had received allogenic HCT, and 43% had malignant hematologic disease (Table 1). For SNP rs2277119 in CYP39A1, presence of T allele was associated with greater cumulative incidence of re-transplantation (TC-TT vs. CC genotype: HR=3.64 (95% CI=1.14-11.62), p=0.02, Figure 1A); and SNP rs4715354 in GSTA5, presence of G allele was associated with lower cumulative incidence of re-transplantation (AG-GG vs. AA: HR=0.32 (95% CI=0.11-0.95), p=0.037, Figure 1B). In 79% of patients with available fludarabine cAUC (median of 3.72 mg•hr/L), we evaluated fludarabine pathway gene SNPs for association with cAUC. Within SNPs rs3925058 in CMPK1 and rs11853372 in the uptake transporter SLC28A1, presence of variant allele was associated with higher fludarabine cAUC (rs3925058: GA-AA vs. GG, p=0.049, Figure 2A, and rs11853372 GG-GT vs. TT, p=0.003, Figure 2B); and for a 3'-UTR SNP rs2037067 in TENM3/DCTD, the variant allele was associated with lower fludarabine cAUC levels (CT-CC vs. TT, p=0.005, Figure 2C). In an exploratory analysis with event-free outcomes, patients with variant allele for SNPs rs9937 in RRM1, rs2072671 in CDA, rs324148 in SLC29A1, and rs7533657 in CTPS1 had higher odds of having an event compared to patients with the reference allele; while rs11577910 in CTPS1 had a better outcome with presence of variant allele. With respect to patient's status being alive with re-transplantation outcomes, variants SNPs with rs507964 in SLC29A1, rs4244285 in CYP2C19, rs1021737 in CTH, rs1561876 in STIM1, and rs1130609 in RRM2 have high odds of re-transplantation. At 1-month follow-up, variant SNP rs12144160 in CTPS1 was associated with sufficient chimerism in CD3 and CD14/15. Conclusions: In this study, we have identified a number of SNPs that predict interpatient variability in clinical outcomes and fludarabine levels in pediatric HCT recipients. Results so far showed potential to predict outcomes and develop strategies that will consider pharmacogenomics when determining fludarabine doses in pediatric HCT recipients. Our ongoing study is focused on establishing and validating the pharmacogenetic markers predictive of pharmacokinetics of busulfan, fludarabine and thiotepa and clinical outcomes in pediatric HCT recipients.
