Central nervous system relapse after allogeneic HCT in FLT3-mutated AML.

Ann Hematol

Department of Medicine 2, Hematology/Oncology, Goethe University Frankfurt, University Hospital, Frankfurt, Germany.

Central nervous system (CNS) relapse in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is rare, but prognostically extremely unfavorable and associated with very high mortality rates. Aim of our single-center study was to define risk factors for CNS relapse in patients with FLT3-mutated AML after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and to determine the impact of pre-emptive or salvage therapy with FLT3-inhibitors (FLT3i) on occurrence of CNS relapse and overall prognosis. We analyzed 39 FLT3-mutated AML patients who were treated with intensive induction therapy and consecutively underwent HCT at our institution.

Objective: Neurological and functional impairments are commonly observed in individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) due to insufficient regeneration of damaged axons. Exosomes play a crucial role in the paracrine effects of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and have emerged as a promising therapeutic approach for SCI. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate the safety and potential effects of intrathecal administration of allogeneic exosomes derived from human umbilical cord MSCs (HUC-MSCs) in patients with complete subacute SCI.

Using the vascularized skin allograft (VSA) model, we compared the tolerogenic effects of different allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) delivery routes into immunoprivileged compartments under a 7-day protocol immunosuppressive therapy. Twenty-eight fully MHC mismatched VSA transplants were performed between ACI (RT1) donors and Lewis (RT1) recipients in four groups of seven animals each, under a 7-day protocol of alfa/beta TCRmAb/CsA (alpha/beta-TCR monoclonal antibodies/Cyclosporine A therapy). Donor bone marrow cells (BMC) (100 × 106 cells) were injected into three different immunoprivileged compartments: Group 1: Control, without cellular supportive therapy, Group 2: Intracapsular BMT, Group 3: Intragonadal BMT, Group 4: Intrathecal BMT.

The route used in the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can directly affect the treatment success. The transplantation of MSCs via the intrathecal (IT) route can be an important therapeutic strategy for neurological disorders. The objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and feasibility of the IT transplantation of autologous (Auto-MSCs) and allogeneic (Allo-MSCs) bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) in healthy dogs.

Article Synopsis
  • Infant acute myeloid leukemia is a rare and aggressive cancer found in young children, where two specific cases showed high white blood cell counts (hyperleukocytosis) and later isolated relapses in the central nervous system during chemotherapy.
  • Both infants successfully received bone marrow transplants with a specific regimen that did not involve radiation, and they underwent a series of lumbar punctures with an anticancer drug.
  • The treatment was well-tolerated with no major complications, suggesting that this method could be a viable option for treating high-risk infants with leukemia.
