Outcomes of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in 5 Patients with Autosomal Recessive RIPK1-Deficiency.

Receptor Interacting Serine/Threonine Kinase 1 (RIPK1) is widely expressed and integral to inflammatory and cell death responses. Autosomal recessive RIPK1-deficiency, due to biallelic loss of function mutations in RIPK1, is a rare inborn error of immunity (IEI) resulting in uncontrolled necroptosis, apoptosis and inflammation. Although hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been suggested as a potential curative therapy, the extent to which disease may be driven by extra-hematopoietic effects of RIPK1-deficiency, which are non-amenable to HSCT, is not clear.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for CTLA-4 insufficiency across Europe: A European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation Inborn Errors Working Party study.

Background: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) insufficiency causes a primary immune regulatory disorder characterized by lymphoproliferation, dysgammaglobulinemia, and multiorgan autoimmunity including cytopenias and colitis.

Objective: We examined the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for CTLA-4 insufficiency and study the impact of pre-HSCT CTLA-4 fusion protein (CTLA-4-Ig) therapy and pre-HSCT immune dysregulation on survival and immunologic outcome.

Methods: This was a retrospective study of HSCT for CTLA-4 insufficiency and 2q33.

Outcomes of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in 813 pediatric patients with Fanconi anemia.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only established curative option for Fanconi anemia (FA)-associated bone marrow failure (BMF)/aplastic anemia (AA) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML)/myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We performed a retrospective multicenter study on 813 children with FA undergoing first HSCT between 2010 and 2018. Median duration of follow-up was 3.

Outcomes of HLA-mismatched HSCT with TCRαβ/CD19 depletion or post-HSCT cyclophosphamide for inborn errors of immunity.

HLA-mismatched transplants with either in vitro depletion of CD3+ T-cell receptor (TCR)αβ/CD19 (TCRαβ) cells or in vivo T-cell depletion using posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY) have been increasingly used for patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEIs). We performed a retrospective multicenter study via the EBMT registry on 306 children with IEIs undergoing their first transplant between 2010 and 2019 from an HLA-mismatched donor using TCRαβ (n = 167) or PTCY (n = 139). The median age for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) was 1.

Outcome of Second Allogeneic HSCT for Patients with Inborn Errors of Immunity: Retrospective Study of 20 Years' Experience.

A significant complication of HSCT is graft failure, although few studies focus on this problem in patients with inborn errors of immunity (IE). We explored outcome of second HSCT for IEI by a retrospective, single-centre study between 2002 and 2022. Four hundred ninety-three patients underwent allogeneic HSCT for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID; n = 113, 22.

CD3TCRαβ/CD19-Depleted Mismatched Family or Unrelated Donor Salvage Stem Cell Transplantation for Graft Dysfunction in Inborn Errors of Immunity.

A minority of children experience significant graft dysfunction after undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for inborn errors of immunity (IEI). The optimal approach to salvage HSCT in this scenario is unclear with respect to conditioning regimen and stem cell source. This single-center retrospective case series reports the outcomes of salvage CD3TCRαβ/CD19-depleted mismatched family or unrelated donor stem cell transplantation (TCRαβ-SCT) between 2013 and 2022 for graft dysfunction in 12 children with IEI.

Personalized hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity.

Patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) have been transplanted for more than 50 years. Many long-term survivors have ongoing medical issues showing the need for further improvements in how hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is performed if patients in the future are to have a normal quality of life. Precise genetic diagnosis enables early treatment before recurrent infection, autoimmunity and organ impairment occur.

Use of eculizumab in children with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation associated thrombotic microangiopathy - a multicentre retrospective PDWP and IEWP EBMT study.

Terminal complement blockade by humanised monoclonal antibody eculizumab has been used to treat transplantation-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) in recent years. This retrospective international study conducted by the Paediatric Diseases (PDWP) and Inborn Error Working Party (IEWP) of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) describes outcome and response of 82 paediatric patients from 29 centres who developed TA-TMA and were treated with eculizumab between January 2014 and May 2019. The median time from hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to TA-TMA manifestation was 92 days (range: 7-606) and from TA-TMA diagnosis to the start of eculizumab treatment 6 days (range: 0-135).

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for adolescents and adults with inborn errors of immunity: an EBMT IEWP study.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the gold standard curative therapy for infants and children with many inborn errors of immunity (IEI), but adolescents and adults with IEI are rarely referred for transplant. Lack of published HSCT outcome data outside small, single-center studies and perceived high risk of transplant-related mortality have delayed the adoption of HSCT for IEI patients presenting or developing significant organ damage later in life. This large retrospective, multicenter HSCT outcome study reports on 329 IEI patients (age range, 15-62.

TCRαβ-Depleted Haploidentical Grafts Are a Safe Alternative to HLA-Matched Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplants for Infants with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and gene therapy are the only curative therapies for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). In patients lacking a matched donor, TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical family donor transplant (TCRαβ-HaploSCT) is a promising strategy. Conditioned transplant in SCID correlates to better myeloid chimerism and reduced immunoglobulin dependency.

Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation for Adenosine Deaminase Severe Combined Immunodeficiency-Improved Outcomes in the Modern Era.

Current treatment for adenosine deaminase (ADA)-deficient severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) includes enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT), or ex vivo corrected autologous hematopoietic stem cell gene therapy. Historic data show HSCT survival is superior using unconditioned matched sibling and family compared to matched unrelated and haploidentical donors. Recent improvement in HSCT outcomes prompted us to retrospectively examine HSCT survival and long-term graft function in ADA-SCID transplanted at our center.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome: an EBMT Inborn Errors Working Party analysis.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for patients affected by Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS). Reported HSCT outcomes have improved over time with respect to overall survival, but some studies have identified older age and HSCT from alternative donors as risk factors predicting poorer outcome. We analyzed 197 patients undergoing transplant at European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation centers between 2006 and 2017 who received conditioning as recommended by the Inborn Errors Working Party (IEWP): either busulfan (n = 103) or treosulfan (n = 94) combined with fludarabine ± thiotepa.

Making a diagnosis of periodic fever syndrome: Experience from a single tertiary centre.

Aim: This study aims to evaluate the utility of genetic testing of patients diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes and to assess the validity of existing scoring criteria.

Methods: This study retrospectively reviewed the clinical history of patients diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes at Queensland Children's Hospital between November 2014 and June 2018.

Results: Forty-three patients were diagnosed with periodic fever syndromes.

Outcome of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in patients with Mendelian Susceptibility to Mycobacterial Diseases.

Predisposition to mycobacterial infection is a key presenting feature of several rare inborn errors of intrinsic and innate immunity. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) can be curative for such conditions, but published reports are few. We present a retrospective survey of the outcome of 11 affected patients (7 males, 4 females) who underwent HSCT between 2007 and 2019.

Activity of blinatumomab in lymphoblastic leukemia with impaired T-cell immunity due to congenital immunodeficiency.

Blinatumomab, a single-chain, bispecific, T-cell-engaging antibody targeting CD19, is effective in B-precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL), even in the context of chemotherapy-related partial T-cell immunodeficiency. We report 2 patients with BCP-ALL and congenital T-cell immunodeficiency, who obtained an excellent response to blinatumomab. The first, a 6-year-old girl with Schimke immuno-osseous dysplasia (SIOD) and combined immunodeficiency disorder (CID) obtained a minimum residual disease-negative (MRD-) remission of high hyperdiploid BCP-ALL with blinatumomab.

Outcome of Non-hematological Autoimmunity After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation in Children with Primary Immunodeficiency.

Purpose: Knowledge of post-hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) non-hematological autoimmune disease (AD) is far from satisfactory.

Method: This multicenter retrospective study focuses on incidence, risk factors, and outcomes of post-HCT AD in 596 children with primary immunodeficiency (PID) who were transplanted from 2009 to 2018.

Results: The indications of HCT were severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID, n = 158, 27%) and non-SCID PID (n = 438, 73%).

Outcome After Cord Blood Transplantation Using Busulfan Pharmacokinetics-Targeted Myeloablative Conditioning for Hurler Syndrome.

We report the outcomes of cord blood transplantation (CBT) with a busulfan (Bu) pharmacokinetics-targeted myeloablative conditioning regimen in 97 children with Hurler syndrome (HS) performed between 2004 and 2016. The median age at CBT was 10.8 months (range, 0.
