Spongiform Encephalopathy Following Allogeneic Cord Blood TransplantO'Brien, Dennis, Klopfenstein, Kathryn, Gross, Thomas G., Baker, Peter, Termuhlen, Amanda 01 February 2008 (has links)
A 6 year old boy developed a fatal, rapidly progressive encephalopathy 5 months after a matched unrelated cord blood transplant. Autopsy findings revealed spongiform changes in his brain. The clinical course of this child's illness had many findings consistent with that of a transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE). Pre-mortem and post-mortem studies failed to definitively determine an etiology. Spongiform encephalopathies include the TSEs and mitochondrial encephalopathies. Both should be considered in a post-hematopoietic stem cell transplant patient who develops a progressive encephalopathy when more common etiologies are not found.

Impacto clínico da recuperação linfocitária precoce na reconstituição imunológica pós transplante alogênico de células tronco hematopoiéticasCosta, Lisandra Della January 2012 (has links)
Introdução: O transplante de células tronco hematopoiéticas é capaz de curar as doenças hematológicas. O papel da repopulação linfocitária precoce no período pós transplan te visa combater a células neoplásicas que resistiram ao regime de condicionamento e prevenir as infecções oportunistas graves. Sendo assim, uma contagem elevada de linfócitos no período pós transplante é capaz de reduzir a mortalidade relacionada ao transplante (TRM), melhorar a sobrevida livre de doença e reduzir a taxa de recidiva. Objetivos: Avaliar a recuperação linfocitária precoce no D+21 e D+30 pós transplante correlacionado com a taxa de recidiva da doença de base, mortalidade, sobrevida global e livre de doença. Analisar a freqüência das complicações infecciosas neste período. Métodos: Analisado o número absoluto de linfócitos no D+21 e D+30 pós transplante de células tronco hematopoiéticas. Conforme dados da literatura definiu-se no D+21 e no D+30 aqueles com número absoluto de linfócitos abaixo e acima de 300 e se correlacionou os dados obtidos com a taxa de óbito, taxa de recidiva, sobrevida global em 5 anos, sobrevida livre de doença, em 5 anos, TRM em 100 dias. e mortalidade não relacionada a recaída (NRM). Resultados: Neste estudo foram incluídos 100 pacientes portadores das seguintes neoplasias hematológicas: leucemia mielóide aguda, leucemia linfocítica aguda, leucemias secundárias e síndrome mielodisplásica. Destes, 55 pacientes eram do sexo masculino e 45 do sexo feminino. A média de idade foi de 27,9 anos (mínima 9 meses e máxima 55 anos). A mediana do tempo de seguimento foi de 601 dias (IC 95% 106-1845). A mediana de CD 34 infundidos foi de 4,0 (IC 95% 2,4-5,7) e quanto a origem destas células CD 34 infundidas 85% foram de medula óssea (MO), 12% periférica (PBSC) e 3% sangue de cordão umbilical (SCU). Quanto ao tipo de condicionamento realizado 22% foram não mieloablativos e 78% mieloablativos.A mediana de linfócitos no D+21 foi de 460 (IC 95% 0 - 6250) e no D+30 foi de 760 (IC 95% 40-6370). Com relação a taxa de infecções observou-se que 19% das infecções foram de etiologia viral, 65 % bacteriana e 17% fúngicas. A sobrevida global (OS) em 5 anos foi de 44 % , sobrevida livre de doença (DFS) foi de 37,7% , a mortalidade relacionada ao transplante (TRM) em 100 dias foi de 32,5%. E a mortalidade não relacionada a recidiva (NRM) em 5 anos foi de 40,2%. No desfecho óbito observamos que 69% dos pacientes que foram a óbito no D+21 tinham linfócitos abaixo de 300, e 43,9% tinham linfócitos acima de 300 (p<0,05). Pacientes com valores menores que 300 no dia 30 tem 2,20 vezes o risco de irem a óbito quando comparados com aqueles com valores acima de 300 (IC 95% 1,03-4,69) ajustado para DECH e CD34. Pacientes com valores menores que 300 no dia 30 tem 3,76 vezes o risco de irem a óbito em menos de 100 dias quando comparados com aqueles com valores acima de 300 (IC 95% 1,23-11,46) Conclusões: A reconstituição linfocitária precoce (> 300) no D+21 e no D+30 melhora a sobrevida global e livre de doença, bem como reduz a taxa de recidiva da doença de base e reduz a mortalidade. / Background: The role of repopulating lymphocyte after allogenic stem cell transplantation (SCT) includes the prevention of serious infections and attacking residual tumor cells in the early post transplant phase. Therefore, the current study analysed the role of the absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) on day 21 and 30 after SCT in predicting transplant outcomes of patients in terms of the risk of transplant related mortality (TRM) recurrence of original disease and risk of opportunistic infections. Objective: Evaluate early lymphocyte recovery on D +21 and D +30 posttransplant correlated with the rate of recurrence of the underlying disease, mortality, overall survival and disease free survival. Analyzed the frequency of infectious complications in this period. Methods: Analyzed the absolute lymphocyte count in the D +21 and D +30 after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. According to literature data set the we correlate the absolute lymphocyte count in the D +21D +30 below and above 300 these data with the rate of death, relapse rate, overall survival in 5 years, disease-free survival in 5 years , TRM in 100 days and mortality unrelated to relapse (NRM). Results : Included in the study 100 patients with the following hematologic malignancies: acute myeloid leukemia, acute lymphocytic leukemia, secondary leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome. Of these, 55 patients were male and 45 female. The average age was 27.9 years (minimum 9 months and maximum 55 years). The median follow-up was 601 days (95% CI 106-1845). The CD 34 median that was infused was 4.0 (95% CI 2.4 to 5.7).The source of stem cells infused was 85% of bone marrow (BM), peripheral 12% (PBSC) and 3 % of umbilical cord blood (UCB). Regarding the type of conditioning performed 22% were non myeloablative and 78% of lymphocytes were mieloablativos. The median of absolute lymphocyte count in the D +21 was 460 (95% CI 0 to 6250) and D +30 was 760 (95% CI 40- 6370 ). Regarding the rate of infections were observed 19% viral infections , bacterial in 65% and fungal in 17%. Overall survival (OS) at 5 years was 44%, disease-free survival (DFS) was 37.7%, transplant related mortality (TRM) in 100 days was 32.5%. Non relapsed mortality (NRM) at 5 years was 40.2%. The death rate found that 69% of patients who died at the D +21 had presented lymphocytes count below 300, and 43.9% were above 300 lymphocytes (p <0.05). Patients with counts less than 300 in D+30 presented 2.20 times risk of death when compared with those who presented values above 300 (95% CI 1.03 to 4.69) adjusted for GVHD and CD34. Patients presenting values less than 300 in 30 days have 3.76 times more risk of death in less than 100 days compared with those with values above 300 (95% CI 1.23 to 11.46). Conclusions: The early lymphocyte reconstitution (> 300) in D +21 D +30 improves overall survival and disease-free and reduces the relapse rate of the underlying disease and reduces mortality.

The Clinical Significance of Diagnostic Red Cell Distribution Width in Patients with Acute Myeloid LeukemiaVucinic, Vladan 21 December 2021 (has links)
Introduction: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a highly heterogeneous disease which renders risk stratification at diagnosis of high importance to personalize therapy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) offers the highest chance for sustained remission in most AML patients, but usually comes at the risk of a significant treatment-related mortality. The red cell distribution width (RDW) is an universally accessible parameter that identifies individuals with a higher mortality in many diseases, including some hematological entities. However, the impact of diagnostic RDW levels in AML – especially in the context of a HSCT consolidation - has not been evaluated so far.
Purpose: To evaluate the prognostic impact of RDW levels at AML diagnosis.
Methods: A total of 294 newly diagnosed AML patients (median age 60.6, range 14.3-76.5 years), with available diagnostic RDW levels were retrospectively included in this analysis. All patients received a consolidation therapy with an allogeneic HSCT in curative intention between August 2007 and December 2020 at the University Medical Center Leipzig. The RDW was measured in all patients at AML diagnosis before the start of cytoreductive therapies.
Results: RDW levels at diagnosis were highly variable (median 16.6%, range 12%-30.6%) and above the upper level of normal (>15%) in 73% of the analyzed AML patients. Patients with RDW levels above 15% did not have worse outcomes compared to patients with low diagnostic RDW levels. However, when the cohort was dichotomized according to a receiver operating characteristic (ROC)-based optimal cut-point (20.7%), patients with high RDW levels had a significantly higher non-relapse mortality (NRM), shorter overall survival and a trend for shorter event-free survival, while the risk of relapse or disease progression was similar in both groups. In multivariate analyses, the RDW remained an independent prognostic factor for higher NRM after adjustment for the body mass index at diagnosis. Patients with a higher RDW were more likely to harbor a secondary AML, as well as to harbor secondary AML-associated gene mutations (i.e. JAK2, ASXL1, or spliceosome mutations, especially SRSF2).
Conclusion: High RDW levels at diagnosis represent an independent risk marker for a higher mortality following allogeneic HSCT. When confirmed in prospective clinical trials, the RDW might help to personalize AML consolidation therapy including conditioning regimens before allogeneic HSCT.:1. Bibliographische Beschreibung

Prognostic Impact of the CD34+/CD38- Cell Burden in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia receiving Allogeneic Stem Cell TransplantationJentzsch, Barbara Madlen 02 February 2018 (has links)
Introduction: In acute myeloid leukemia (AML), leukemia initiating cells exist within the CD34+/CD38- cell compartment. They are assumed to be more resistant to chemotherapy, enriched in minimal residual disease cell populations, and responsible for relapse.
Purpose: We evaluated clinical and biological associations and the prognostic impact of a high diagnostic CD34+/CD38- cell burden in AML patients receiving an allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in complete remission. Here, the therapeutic approach is mainly based on immunological graft-versus-leukemia effects.
Methods: Percentage of bone marrow CD34+/CD38- cell burden in 169 AML patients at diagnosis was measured using flow cytometry. The optimal cutoff of 6% was applied and used to evaluate the impact of a high CD34+/CD38- cell burden on outcome.
Results: The CD34+/CD38- cell burden and was highly variable (median 0.5%, range 0-89% of all mononuclear cells). A high CD34+/CD38- cell burden at diagnosis associated with worse genetic risk and secondary AML. Patients with a high CD34+/CD38- cell burden had shorter relapse-free and overall survival, which may be mediated by residual leukemia initiating cells in the CD34+/CD38- cell population, escaping the graft-versus-leukemia effect after allogeneic HSCT.
Conclusion: Evaluating the CD34+/CD38- cell burden at diagnosis may help to identify patients at high risk of relapse after allogeneic HSCT. Further studies to understand leukemia initiating cell biology and develop targeting therapies to improve outcomes of AML patients are needed.:Bibliographische Beschreibung / Bibliographic description 1
