Bone Marrow versus Peripheral Blood Grafts for Haploidentical Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation with Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide.

In the coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic era, the number of haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantations (HCTs) with peripheral blood (PB) grafts increased significantly compared with HCTs with bone marrow (BM) grafts, which may be associated with adverse outcomes. We compared outcomes of HCT in BM graft and PB graft recipients age ≥18 years with hematologic malignancies who underwent T cell- replete haploidentical HCT and received graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil. Among the 264 patient

New Insights into the Pathogenesis of Systemic Mastocytosis.

Mastocytosis is a type of myeloid neoplasm characterized by the clonal, neoplastic proliferation of morphologically and immunophenotypically abnormal mast cells that infiltrate one or more organ systems. Systemic mastocytosis (SM) is a more aggressive variant of mastocytosis with extracutaneous involvement, which might be associated with multi-organ dysfunction or failure and shortened survival. Over 80% of patients with SM carry the KIT D816V mutation. However, the KIT D816V mutation serves as a weak oncogene and appears to be a late event in the pathogenesis of mastocytosis. The management o

Recent advances in renal transplantation: antibody-mediated rejection takes center stage.

Overlooked for decades, antibodies have taken center stage in renal transplantation and are now widely recognized as the first cause of allograft failure. Diagnosis of antibody-mediated rejection has considerably improved with identification of antibody-mediated lesions in graft biopsies and advances made in the detection of circulating donor-specific antibodies. Unfortunately, this progress has not yet translated into better outcomes for patients. Indeed, in the absence of a drug able to suppress antibody generation by plasma cells, available therapies can only slow down graft destruction. Th

Diagnosis and treatment of multisystem amyloidosis associated with SGPL1 mutation: A case report and review of the literature.

RATIONALE: Amyloidosis is a rare, clinically heterogeneous disease, which makes its diagnosis difficult. The relationship between amyloidosis and gene mutations is insufficiently understood. We report a case of sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase 1 (SGPL1) mutation-related amyloidosis, and review the related literature. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 53-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a 5-month history of renal dysfunction and abdominal distension, aggravated since 2 days. Five months ago, the patient was diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome, with liver dysfunction and abdominal distension. His sy

Don't Cut the Cord: Why Umbilical Cord Blood Still Deserves a Place in Transplantation.

The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) as a stem cell source in haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has greatly declined in recent years. It has largely been replaced by mismatched unrelated and family donors, facilitated by advances in transplant technologies, including post-transplant cyclophosphamide to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). UCB remains a distinctive source of haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) with unique immunologic and practical advantages, including for those with malignant and non-malignant diseases. Compared to other cell sources, UCB transplantation (UCBT) off

Cardiotoxicity of Biological Therapies in Cancer Patients: An In-depth Review.

Cardiotoxicity from chemotherapy regimens has been long reported. However, the understanding of cardiac side effects of biological therapies is rapidly evolving. With cancer patients achieving higher life expectancy due to the use of personalized medicine and novel targeted anticancer agents, the occurrence of cardiotoxicity is becoming more significant. Novel biological therapies include anti-HER2 antibodies, tyrosine kinase inhibitors, bruton kinase inhibitors, antivascular endothelial growth factors, proteasome inhibitors, immunomodulator drugs, and immune checkpoint inhibitors. Potential c

Cardiotoxicity of immune checkpoint inhibitors.

Cardiac toxicity after conventional antineoplastic drugs (eg, anthracyclines) has historically been a relevant issue. In addition, targeted therapies and biological molecules can also induce cardiotoxicity. Immune checkpoint inhibitors are a novel class of anticancer drugs, distinct from targeted or tumour type-specific therapies. Cancer immunotherapy with immune checkpoint blockers (ie, monoclonal antibodies targeting cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4), programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and its ligand (PD-L1)) has revolutionised the management of a wide variety of malignancies

In vitro расширила человека CD4+CD25+ регуляционные T клетки, подавляющие распространение Т клеток.

Регулирующие Т клетки (Tregs) оказались критически важными в балансе между автоиммунизацией и терпимостью и были связаны с несколькими аутоиммунными заболеваниями человека. Однако небольшое число трегов в периферии крови ограничивает их терапевтический потенциал. Поэтому мы разработали протокол, который позволит расширить "Трегз" при сохранении их подавляющей активности. Мы изолировали клетки CD4+CD25 hi от человеческой периферической крови и расширили их in vitro в присутствии anti-CD3 и anti-CD28 Магнитные кситы и высокие концентрации внешнего интерлейкина (IL) -2. Траги были эффективно расш

Immunization Strategies in Pediatric Patients Receiving Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) and Chimeric Antigen Receptor T-Cell (CAR-T) Therapy: Challenges and Insights from a Narrative Review.

BackgroundHematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) therapy have markedly improved survival in pediatric patients with hematological malignancies. However, these treatments cause profound immunosuppression, leading to significant susceptibility to vaccine-preventable diseases (VPDs), including invasive pneumococcal disease and measles. Timely and tailored immunization strategies are crucial to mitigate infectious risks in this vulnerable population.MethodsWe conducted a narrative review of the English-language literature from 2000 to 2024, including

Machine learning-based prediction of one-year mortality after alloHCT identifies the impact of pre-transplant immunity and inflammation.

Accurate prediction of mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHCT) is essential for individualized treatment decisions, yet existing clinical risk scores capture only a limited number of variables and show modest predictive performance. In our single-center retrospective analysis, we included data from 909 adult patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing alloHCT. We used 31 features to build machine-learning models to predict death within the first year after alloHCT. These features included established clinical risk factors together with pre-transplant

Hematopoietic stem cell microtransplantation: current situation and challenges.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) stands as a cornerstone in the treatment of hematological malignancies, recognized for its remarkable efficacy. However, the persistent challenge of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) continues to represent a significant barrier, often being the leading cause of nonrelapse mortality after allo-HSCT. To address this limitation, hematopoietic stem cell microtransplantation (MST) has emerged as a novel therapeutic strategy that synergistically combines chemotherapy, allo-HSCT, and cellular immunotherapy. This innovative approach is desi

Immunodeficiencies in Adults: Key Considerations for Diagnosis and Management.

Immunodeficiencies in adults are increasingly recognized yet often remain underdiagnosed, leading to significant morbidity from recurrent infections, autoimmunity, and malignancy. Both primary immunodeficiencies (PIDs), now known as inborn errors of immunity (IEI), and secondary immunodeficiencies (SIDs) contribute to immune dysfunction in adults. Although SIDs are more common in adults due to factors like medications, malignancies, metabolic disorders, chronic conditions, and protein-losing conditions, IEI-particularly common variable immunodeficiency (CVID)-can also manifest in adulthood wit

Human herpesvirus type 6 reactivation after haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation with post-transplant cyclophosphamide and antithymocyte globulin: risk factors and clinical impact.

Human herpesvirus type 6 (HHV6) reactivation after haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) has been scarcely studied, especially when antithymocyte globulin (ATG) is added to the graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis. We conducted a retrospective cohort study in 100 consecutive patients receiving haploidentical HCT with PT-Cy. We systematically monitored HHV6 DNA loads in blood samples on a weekly basis using quantitative PCR until day +100. The 100-day cumulative incidence of HHV6 reactivation was 54%. Clinically significant

The Emerging Role of Venetoclax-Based Treatments in Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.

Venetoclax, a B-cell lymphoma (BCL-2) inhibitor, in combination with hypomethylating agents has become the new standard of care in elderly and unfit patients with acute myeloid leukemia, with significantly improved overall survival and quality of life. Studies of venetoclax combined with high-dose chemotherapy are emerging with evidence of higher rates of molecular remission. Recently, a growing number of publications bring forth the use of venetoclax in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In the current review, we present the biological rationale of BCL-2 inhibition in ALL, how

The Role of Monoclonal Antibodies in the Era of Bi-Specifics Antibodies and CAR T Cell Therapy in Multiple Myeloma.

Multiple myeloma (MM) remains largely incurable despite enormous improvement in the outcome of patients. Over the past decade, we have witnessed the "era of monoclonal antibody (moAb)", setting new benchmarks in clinical outcomes for relapsed and newly diagnosed MM. Due to their excellent efficacy and relative safe toxicity profile, moAbs in combination with immunomodulatory drugs (IMiDs) and proteasome inhibitors (PIs) have become the new backbone of upfront anti-MM therapy. Yet, most patients will eventually relapse and patients who become refractory to IMiDs, PIs and moAbs have a dismal out

The Problem of Molecular Target Choice for CAR-T Cells in Acute Myeloid Leukemia Therapy.

Recently, the chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-T approach represented a breakthrough in the treatment of B-cell malignancies, encouraging the application of the approach for other hematological diseases, such as acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Heterogeneity and antigen variation in the pathological cell population hinder the choice of molecular targets in the case of AML. In this review, the critical aspects were described that are usually considered when selecting molecular targets for the new CAR genetic constructs. The role of AML-associated antigens in AML progression was covered. In conclusi
