Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy with high molecular and clinical heterogeneity, and is the most common type of acute leukemia in adults. Due to limited treatment options, AML is prone to relapse and has a poor prognosis. Excision repair cross-complementing 3 (ERCC3) is an important member of nucleotide excision repair (NER) that is overexpressed in types of solid cancers and potentially regarded as a prognostic factor. However, its role in AML remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to explore ERCC3 expression and functions in AML.The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and GEO (Gene Expression Omnibus) were used to test the accuracy of ERCC3 expression levels for AML diagnosis. Using online databases and R packages, we also explored the signaling pathway, epigenetic regulation, infiltration of immune cells, clinical prognostic value, and ceRNA network in AML.Our results revealed that ERCC3 expression was increased in AML and that high ERCC3 expression had good value for disease-free survival and overall survival in AML patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We found that ERCC3 and co-expressed genes were mainly involved in chemical carcinogenesis/reactive oxygen species, ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation and oxidative phosphorylation. In addition, almost all the mThis study demonstrated that ERCC3 was overexpressed in AML and that high ERCC3 expression can be considered a biomarker conducive to allo-HSCT in AML patients.

Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) viremia is a common complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impacts of early-onset EBV viremia in acute leukemia (AL) patients who underwent allo-HSCT with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)-containing myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen. Two hundred and ninety-six patients were included between January 2013 and December 2015. In 126 patients (42.6%) who developed early-onset EBV viremia, with a median time of 48 (range 18~99) days after allo-HSCT. The cumulative incidence of EBV viremia at 30 and 90 days after allo-HSCT were 4.1 and 39.9%, respectively. Prognostic analysis showed that the adjusted overall survival in early-EBVpos group was significantly lower than early-EBVneg group within the first 26.7 months after allo-HSCT [hazard ratio (HR), 1.63, P = 0.012], but significantly higher than those afterward (after 26.7 months: HR 0.11, P = 0.035); for the adjusted event-free survival, early-EBVpos group was significantly inferior in early-EBVpos group within the first 10.8 months after transplantation (HR: 1.55, P = 0.042), and this adverse effect was not detected any more after 10.8 months (HR: 0.58, P = 0.107). Compared with early-EBVneg group after adjusting by aGVHD and CMV viremia, HR for death from transplant-related mortality was 2.78-fold higher in patients with early-EBV viremia in piecewise constant Cox analysis (P = 0.006), and this adverse effect was not detected any more after the cut-point time (HR: 0.67, P = 0.361). No differences in terms of relapse and relapse mortality were observed between early-EBVpos and early-EBVneg group (P > 0.05). In conclusion, the impacts on transplant outcomes of early-EBV viremia were time-dependent, which may help to optimize management strategies for early-EBV viremia after allo-HSCT, especially in AL patients with ATG-containing MAC regimen.

Introduction Currently, effective and safe salvage therapies are limited among patients with relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Anti-CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cell is a promising treatment. Patients and Methods We studied 11 patients with B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia that relapsed after allo-HSCT between September 2017 and October 2019. Patients were treated with a dose of single-infusion donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T cells. Results Eight patients (72.7%) experienced morphologic remissions. Seven (63.6%) experienced minimal residual disease–negative remission. The ongoing complete remission (CR) duration of 2 patients reached 22 months. The median overall survival was 9 months (range, 2-22 months). Only one patient with grade 1 acute graft-versus-host disease was observed. Two patients (18.2%) developed grade 3/4 cytokine release syndrome. Conclusion This prospective study showed allogeneic donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy is an effective and safe salvage regimen for patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia after allo-HSCT. Further randomized and multicenter investigations are needed to evaluate their potential role in relapsed acute lymphoblastic leukemia therapies after allo-HSCT.

Background: Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection of the central nervous system (CNS) is a rare but life-threatening complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Cases presentation: Two patients with drug-resistant CMV encephalitis after allo-HSCT were successfully treated with donor CMV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). In the first case, a 27-year-old male who received haploidentical transplantation to treat T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), developed CMV encephalitis during the time of the ganciclovir maintenance treatment. After intravenous foscarnet and donor CMV-specific CTLs, CMV-DNA of CSF became undetectable and the abnormal signs of brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were limited. Another case, a 57-year-old female with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who underwent haploidentical transplantation, also developed CMV encephalitis during the maintenance treatment of the ganciclovir. After administering donor CMV-specific CTLs intrathecally, the CMV load of the CSF decreased.Conclusions: The intravenous/intratheca administration of donor CMV-specific CTLs may be a safe and effective treatment for CMV encephalitis, especially for patients who suffered from drug-resistant CMV infection.

Genetic variants have been identified in the majority of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) patients and have considerably influenced the diagnosis, classification, risk stratification and treatment of MDS. To explore the prognostic significance of genomic variants and build a new prognostic scoring model, we performed next-generation sequencing of 51 known genes in 499 Chinese patients with MDS. Ultimately, the

Central nervous system complications (CNSCs) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) are common and may be a significant source of morbidity and mortality. We performed a retrospective study of 153 pediatric patients who underwent allo-HSCT to determine CNSC type, incidence, and impact on survival. A total of 34 patients (22.2%) developed CNSCs. The cumulative incidence of CNSCs at 100 days and 3 years was 18.30 and 22.73%, respectively. The most common CNSC was calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-associated neurotoxicity (50.0%). Risk factors for CNSCs were the time from diagnosis to HSCT ≥4.8 months (p = 0.032) and the development of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) grade III–IV (p = 0.002). CNSCs after allo-HSCT negatively impacted overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] 1.97, p = 0.043) and nonrelapse mortality (HR 4.84, p < 0.001). In conclusion, CNSCs after allo-HSCT are associated with poor outcomes; patients with severe aGVHD and/or late transplantation should be given more attention.

Background:To investigate the pathogenesis, genetic changes, treatment and prognosis of adult B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) with platelet-derived growth factor receptor B (PDGFRB) fusion. Method：Clinical characteristics, treatment process and prognosis of 7 adult B-ALL patients with PDGFRB fusion were presented respectively, and the PDGFRB fusion was confirmed by fluorescence in situ hybridization, RNA sequencing and Polymerase Chain Reaction. Results: 7 adult B-ALL patients with PDGFRB fusion were presented respectively. There were 5 males and 2 females, with a median age of 21 (range, 17-39) years and a median white blood cell count of 7.85 (range, 2.30-111.25) ×10^9/L. The fusion partners were EBF1, SMIM3 and TERF2. Three of 7 cases received tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) targeted therapy, and 4 of 7 cases received chimeric antigen receptor T -cell (CAR-T) therapy. A total of 6 (85.71%) cases underwent haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HSCT). Overall response rate was 71.43% (4/7), and the common adverse reactions during induction were febrile neutropenia and nausea. Seventy-five percent (3/4) and 100% (6/6) of patients were minimal residual disease negative after CAR-T and Haplo-HSCT. To the last follow-up, 2 of 7 cases relapsed in 2 and 7 months after remission, respectively, and the estimated 36 months of Event-free survival and Overall survival was 75.0% and 66.7%.Conclusions: intensive therapy combined with CAR-T or TKI is needed to achieve deep remission, and sequential Haplo-HSCT may improve the prognosis of adult B-ALL with PDGFRB fusion.

Background: Whether patients presented with hypotension and hyperlactatemia can benefit from timely lactate measurement and further lactate-guide resuscitation were not fully understood.Methods: This was a retrospective observational study based on the data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC)-III Database and the eICU Collaborative Research Database (eICU). Patients with hypotension (defined as a minimal systolic blood pressure ≤90 mm Hg or minimal mean arterial pressure ≤65 mm Hg or requiring any vasopressors support during the first 24 h after ICU admission) and hyperlactatemia (defined as an initial lactate level > 2.0 mmol/L after ICU admission) were eligible.The primary exposure was the timely lactate measurement, which was defined as an initial lactate level measured within 1 h after ICU admission. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. The statistical approaches included multivariate regression, propensity score matching (PSM) and an inverse probability of treatment weighing (IPTW) and causal mediation analysis (CMA) were utilized to elucidate the relationship between timely lactate measurement and in-hospital mortality. Results: A total of 9978 patients were identified, of which 4257 in MIMIC-III and 5721 in eICU. Timely lactate measurement was associated with lower risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality both in MIMIC (OR 0.70 (95%CI 0.58-0.85; pConclusions: Timely lactate measurement is associated with a lower risk-adjusted in-hospital mortality among patients with hypotension and hyperlactatemia, which was proportional mediated through shortening the time to IVF. Delay in initial lactate measurement showed a positive association with in-hospital mortality.

The efficacy and safety of donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T cells vs DLI for the management of relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remain unclear. Thirteen B-ALL patients with relapsed after allo-HSCT and thus were treated with donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T-cell (study group). Fifteen B-ALL patients relapsed after allo-HSCT and thus were treated with DLI (DLI group). The rates of MRD-negative complete remission (61.5%) in the study group were significantly higher than those in the DLI group (13.3%) (p = 0.02). The complete remission duration in study group and DLI group were median 8.0 months (range, 3–25 months) and 4.4 months (range, 1–25 months; p = 0.026), respectively. The overall survival of patients in the study group was superior to that of the DLI group: 9.5 months (range,3–25 months) versus 5.5 months (range, 1–25 months; p = 0.030). One patient with grade 1 acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was identified in the study group. While five (33.3%) patients in the DLI group developed grades III–IV aGVHD. Three patients (23.07%) developed grade 3 or 4 cytokine release syndrome in the study group. This study suggested that donor-derived anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy is promising, safe, and potentially effective for relapsed B-ALL after allo-HSCT and may be superior to DLI.

FMS‐like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) is one of the most frequently mutated genes in hematological malignancies. FLT3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3‐ITD) mutations located in juxtamembrane domain (JMD) and tyrosine kinase domain 1 (TKD1) regions account for two‐thirds of all FLT3 mutations. The outcome of patients remains unsatisfactory, with low survival rates. It is not yet known whether the different mutations within the FLT3 gene are all associated with patient outcome. In addition, the cause of FLT3‐ITD in‐frame duplication events remains unknown. Although there are some published studies investigating the FLT3‐ITD mutation and its clinical implications in Chinese acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, sample sizes tend to be small and detailed molecular profiles of FLT3 mutations are lacking in these studies. In our study, 227 FLT3‐ITD sequences were analyzed from 227 Chinese de novo AML patients. ITD were next classified into 3 types based on molecular profiles of insertion DNA sequences: DNA complete duplication (type I), DNA partial duplication (type II) and complete random sequence (type III). From the 154 patients, we confirmed that high ITD allelic ratio (≥.5) and allogeneic stem cell transplant treatment under CR1 are independent prognostic factors. We also presented evidence that ITD integration sites in the hinge region or beta1‐sheet region are an unfavorable prognostic factor in adult AML patients with FLT3‐ITD mutations. These findings may help to decipher the mechanisms of FLT3‐ITD in‐frame duplication events and stratify patients when considering different therapeutic combinations.

The FMS-like tyrosine kinase-3 internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) is one of the most frequent mutations found in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients, with a frequency of 20–30%. The sizes of ITDs vary dramatically.[1][1] The FLT3 -ITD consists of in-frame insertions of duplicated sequences

Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) is a major life-threatening complication after allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Interleukin-27 receptor alpha (IL-27Rα) is a co-receptor of IL-27, an inflammatory cytokine that possesses extensive immunological functions. It has been reported that IL-27Rα can exist in its soluble form (sIL-27Rα) in human serum and can function as a natural IL-27 antagonist. In this study, we examined serum sIL-27Rα levels and evaluated their prognostic value in aGVHD. A total of 152 subjects were prospectively recruited and separated into the training group (n = 72) and the validation group (n = 80). Serum sIL-27Rα at neutrophil engraftment was measured by ELISA. In the training set, a cut-off value of sIL-27Rα = 59.40 ng/ml was identified to predict grade II–IV aGVHD (AUC = 0.735, 95% CI 0.618–0.853, P = 0.001). Cumulative incidences of grade II–IV aGVHD (P = 0.004), relapse rate (P = 0.008), and non-relapse mortality (P = 0.008) in patients with low serum sIL-27Rα (≥59.40 ng/ml) were significantly higher than those of patients with high serum sIL-27Rα (P P = 0.029), IL-10 (R = 0.37, P = 0.0015) and HGF (R = 0.27, P = 0.0208), but was negatively correlated with TNFR1 (R = −0.365, P = 0.0022) and ST2 (R = −0.334, P = 0.0041), elafin (R = −0.29, P = 0.0117), and REG3α (R = −0.417, P = 0.0003). More importantly, the threshold value of sIL-27Rα was then validated in an independent cohort of 80 patients (AUC = 0.790, 95% CI 0.688–0.892, P

B cells are involved in chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) pathogenesis, and Rituximab may have a therapeutic effect on cGVHD in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) patients. Herein, we retrospectively evaluated the prophylactic effect of Rituximab on cGVHD in a group of Chinese allo-HSCT patients. A total of 102 patients, who suffered Epstein Barr virus (EBV) viremia within 100 days after allo-HSCT, were included in this study. Fifty patients received Rituximab (375 mg/m2 weekly) for EBV viremia, while fifty-two patients did not receive Rituximab. A competing risk model was adopted to compare cumulative incidence of cGVHD, cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) and transplantation-related mortality (TRM) between two groups. Cumulative incidence of cGVHD in the Rituximab group was lower than in controls (P = 0.0579). Multivariate analyses confirmed that Rituximab was an independent factor for the reduction of cumulative cGVHD incidence (P = 0.0069). No significant difference was observed in CIR (P = 0.39) or TRM (P = 0.48) between two groups and 2-year OS and DFS were comparable (OS, P = 0.667; DFS, P = 0.571). Administration of Rituximab in the early post-transplantation phase may protect against cGVHD in allo-HSCT patients without increasing CIR or TRM.

Effective treatments for relapsed Ph+ALL with T315I mutation are few; CD19 CAR T-cell therapy are a potential therapy for this condition. We reported 7 patients with relapsed Ph+ALL with T315I mutation, who were treated pre- or post-allo-HSCT with CD19-specific CAR T-cells. Of the 7 cases, 6 were in CR or CRp within 1 month after the first infusion of CAR T-cells. MRD revealed a rapid decline in 6 patients. BCR/ABL fusion transcripts were negative in 4/5 cases (not performed in 2). Three patients maintained remission without evidence of MRD by QPCR until the final follow-up, of which 2 received anti-CD19 CAR T-cells and ponatinib at the same time. Our study confirmed the efficacy of anti-CD19 CAR T-cell therapy in treatment of relapsed Ph+ALL with T315I mutation pre- or post-allo-HSCT and the concurrent applicability of this therapy with ponatinib.

BACKGROUND There are very few studies investigating metabolic biomarkers to predict acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Metabolic models can provide a framework for analyzing the information-rich omics data sets in this setting. METHODS Four hundred and fifty-six samples from one hundred and fourteen consecutive patients who underwent HSCT from January 2012 to May 2014 were collected for this study. The changes in serum metabolite levels were investigated using a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-based metabolomics approach and underwent statistical analysis. RESULTS Significant metabolic changes were observed on day 7. The stearic acid/palmitic acid (SA/PA) ratio was effective in the diagnosis of grade II-IV aGVHD. Multivariate analysis showed that patients with high SA/PA ratios on day 7 after HSCT were less likely to develop II-IV aGVHD than patients with low SA/PA ratios (odds ratio [OR] = 0.06, 95% CI 0.02-0.18, P < 0.001). After the adjustment for clinical characteristics, the SA/PA ratio had no significant effect on overall survival (hazard ratio [HR] = 1.95, 95% CI 0.92-4.14, P = 0.08), and patients in the high SA/PA ratio group were significantly more likely to relapse than those in the low ratio group (HR = 2.26, 95% CI 1.04-4.91, P = 0.04). CONCLUSION Our findings suggest that the SA/PA ratio on day 7 after HSCT is an excellent biomarker to predict both aGVHD and relapse. The serum SA/PA ratio measured on day 7 after transplantation may improve risk stratification for aGVHD and relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation.

Two distinct forms of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3) mutations, internal tandem duplication (ITD) in the juxtamembrane domain and point mutation within the activation loop of the tyrosine kinase domain (TKD), have been identified in considerable number of patients with AML. This study was aimed to analyze the impacts of these mutations on clinical outcomes, and assess the efficacy of different therapeutic regimens (allo-HSCT, sorafenib, or conventional chemotherapy) for AML patients with FLT3 mutations after the standard induction therapy.We analyzed DNA samples from 158 consecutive de novo AML patients (18-60 years, excluding APL) with FLT3 mutations between July 2010 and October 2015.We found that AML patients with FLT3-TKD mutations have more favorable clinical outcomes than those with FLT3-ITD mutations. We also found that allo-HSCT therapy subgroup achieved longer OS and RFS than non-allo-HSCT therapy subgroup for FLT3-ITD positive patients (p 0.001, p = 0.071). However, compared with the clinical outcomes in non-primary refractory patients, sorafenib did not show an obvious beneficial effect for the primary refractory patients. Further study on a large scale is still recommended.FLT3-TKD-mutated AML patients have more favorable clinical outcomes than those with FLT3-ITD mutations. Allo-HSCT therapy subgroup achieved longer OS and RFS than non-allo-HSCT therapy subgroup for FLT3-ITD positive patients. Compared with the clinical outcomes in non-primary refractory patients, sorafenib did not show an obvious beneficial effect for the primary refractory patients.

We performed Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) genotyping on 1271 individuals of Chinese Han origin including 102 families and 965 unrelated individuals. The families (with one child and both parents) were subjected for haplotype analysis. Forty-one different genotypes were identified. The frequencies of the KIR genotypes found in the family panel were confirmed by those found in the unrelated panel. The family study showed segregation of one A haplotype and at least 15 unique B haplotypes. The most commonly observed haplotypes in group B were B1, B2, and B3, present at a frequency of 10.05%, 6.62%, and 4.90%, respectively. On the basis of the combination of KIR genes, six centromeric and seven telomeric gene motifs have been identified. Motif cB02 was the most frequent haplotype B specific centromeric segment while tB01 was the most frequent haplotype B specific telomeric segment. The distinct distribution of KIR haplotypes in each population may reflect the history of directional and balancing selection of different races. The gene combinations of group A and B1/B2/B3 haplotype were the most frequent genotypes named as Bx1, Bx2, and Bx3, present at a frequency of 13.72%, 7.35%, and 4.41% in the family panel, and at a frequency of 15.86%, 10.15%, and 5.80% in the unrelated panel, respectively. Overall, this study showed the diversity of KIR haplotypes and genotypes in Chinese Han population and developed a criterion for distinguish KIR haplotypes/genotypes for the population. KIR genotyping and haplotype analysis should be useful for selection of the most optimum donor grafts with favorable KIR gene content for transplants.

Risk factors of clinically refractory CMV reactivation following allogeneic HSCT: a single-center study in China

Background and objective: Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma(γ) is a member of superfamily of nuclear hormone receptors and involved in the lipids metabolism, adipocyte differentiation, atherosclerosis and anti-inflammation. The role of PPARγ in acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD ) remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role of PPARγ during aGVHD after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT ). Methods: 50 patients undering allo-HSCT and 20 healthy controls were enrolled in study. Peripheral blood (PB) of patients 30 days, 60 days, and 90 days were collected after allo-HSCT. We also collected PB samples at aGVHD onset and after aGVHD remission. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated for real-time PCR to detect the mRNA expression of PPARγ, IFNγ, IL4, T-bet, GATA3, Foxp3, RORγt . Results: Expression of PPARγmRNA in healthy controls were significant lower than that in patients after allo-HSCT(P Conclusion: Our findings suggest that low expression of PPARγ is associated with aGVHD occurrence. PPARγ may be a useful indicator to predict aGVHD and follow-up. Disclosures No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Introduction EBV reactivation and associated diseases have been well recognized as one of the life threatening complications after SCT, which leads to the establishment of prophylactic and preemptive treatment for EBV viremia. However since then, few epidemic data was shown in SCT recipients, especially in China. Patients and Methods An observational data base study was conducted in patients with hematological disorders who received allo-SCT from Jun 2011 through Jun 2014. EBV-negative status was confirmed before transplant for both donors and recipients. EBV-DNA was screened weekly until Day 100 post SCT by qPCR, and then every 2-4 weeks until 1 year. Additional tests were carried out when clinically indicated. All patients received ganciclovir during conditioning regimen, and then switched to acyclovir or valaciclovir after stem cell infusion until 1 year post SCT. Ganciclovir and/or foscarnet were used when DNAemia developed, as well as rituximab for high risk patients such as high viral load or persistent DNAemia. Results This study recruited 892 evaluable cases, including 91 cases of benign diseases and 801 cases of malignancies. Until Jun 2015, EBV-DNA was detected in 178 cases with a median duration of 55 days (16-990days) post SCT, and the long-term cumulative incidence of DNAemia was 22.8¡À1.6%(Fig 1A). Log-rank test showed the onset of EBV-DNAemia had impact on neither OS nor NRM. However, For patients with late-onset EBV viremia (later than 100 days post-SCT), superiority of 3 year-OS (75.6¡À7.9% vs 65.2¡À1.8%, P=0.013) and 3 year-NRM (19.2¡À8.0% vs 25.4¡À1.7%, P=0.028) were observed(Fig 1B and Fig 1C). Furthermore, late-onset of EBV viremia was confirmed as independent protective factor for both OS£¨RR 0.466 [95%CI 0.253-0.859], P=0.014) and NRM (RR 2.271 [95%CI 1.056-4.882], P=0.036) in multivariate analysis. Cox model analysis revealed that the haploidentical donor£¨RR 4.745 [95%CI 1.624-13.866], P=0.004) and the use of ATG/ALG were independent risk factors for late-onset of EBV viremia, as well as the graft of bone marrow (RR 2.188 [95%CI 0.991-4.835], P=0.053) with a marginal significance(Figure 2). Conclusion This work showed the cumulative incidence of EBV viremia after allogeneic SCT was around 22.8% based on virus prophylaxis. As shown in multivariate analysis, late-onset of EBV viremia had independent impact on OS and NRM. Haploidentical donors, the use of ATG/ALG and graft type were independent risk factors for late-onset EBV viremia..
