Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) remains a significant problem for patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Although in vivo lymphodepletion for cGVHD prophylaxis has been explored in the myeloablative setting, its effects after reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) are not well described. Patients (N = 83) with hematologic malignancies underwent targeted lymphodepletion chemotherapy followed by a RIC allo-HSCT using peripheral blood stem cells from unrelated donors.

Article Synopsis
  • Unmodified donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT) can enhance the beneficial Graft-versus-Leukemia (GvL) effects but also pose a risk for severe Graft-versus-Host Disease (GvHD).
  • Key factors influencing GvHD risk after DLI include patient-derived antigen-presenting cells, lymphocyte count, and recent viral infections, particularly in patients with acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome.
  • Results indicate that certain conditions, like the timing of DLI and mixed bone marrow chimerism, significantly impact the likelihood of developing GvHD, with those receiving DLI three months post-transplant facing higher risks associated with

Experiences of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation following non-myeloablative conditioning regimen in severely comorbid patients with myelofibrosis: case series with a patient presenting with extensive extramedullary hematopoiesis.

We have performed allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) using a reduced intensity conditioning regimen for curative management of advanced myelofibrosis (MF). However, allo-HCT is rarely considered for elderly or patients with severe comorbidities due to high transplantation-related mortality. In those patients, an alemtuzumab-based non-myeloablative (NMA) conditioning regimen followed by stem cell transplantation could be a possible treatment that has been tried in sickle cell anemia showing stable mixed chimerism and improvement of the disease.

Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen with fludarabine, melphalan and alemtuzmab is an effective therapy for haematological malignancies. Alemtuzumab, a monoclonal antibody against CD52, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchor-bound surface protein on lymphocytes, depletes T cells to prevent graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Despite this, acute and chronic GVHD (a/cGVHD) remain life-threatening complications after HSCT.
