Day 100 Recovery of Absolute Number of Inhibitory KIR2DL2 and Activating NKp30 Natural Killer Cells Predicts Survival Post-Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Lymphomas.

The infusion autograft absolute number of inhibitory killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) 2DL2 and activating natural killer (NK)p30 cells are predictors of clinical outcomes in lymphoma patients undergoing autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (APBHSCT). To assess if the long-term recovery of these NK cell subsets still holds clinical relevance, we set up to investigate their prognostic ability at day 100 post-APBHSCT. This was a retrospective single-institution study including 107 patients from our prior phase III trial who had a clinical assessment at day 100 post-APBHSCT.

Autologous stem cell transplant in fit patients with refractory or early relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma that responded to salvage chemotherapy.

Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy is the new standard of care in fit patients with refractory or early relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). However, there may still be a role for salvage chemotherapy (ST) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in certain circumstances (e.g.

Day 100 Natural Killer Cell/CD14+HLA-DR ratio and survival in lymphoma post-autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Introduction: The infusion of autograft Natural Killer Cells (NKC)/CD14 HLA-DR ratio is a predictor of survival in lymphoma patients undergoing autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (APBHSCT). This study evaluated if the Day 100 NKC/CD14 HLA-DR ratio still functions as a prognostic immune-biomarker.

Methods: This was a retrospective, single-institution, cohort analysis including 107 patients in this study that had clinical assessment at Day 100 post-APBHSCT from our prior phase III trial.

Outcomes of Patients With Classic Hodgkin Lymphoma Who Relapsed After Autologous Stem Cell Transplant.

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) and brentuximab vedotin (BV) are novel agents for classic Hodgkin lymphoma, including relapse after autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT). However, their impact on survival post-ASCT relapse, in comparison with conventional therapy, is less known due to the lack of randomized controlled trials. Clinical characteristics and outcomes of 115 patients with relapse (or progression) after ASCT are studied.
