Post-Transplantation Cyclophosphamide Is Associated with an Increase in Non-Cytomegalovirus Herpesvirus Infections in Patients with Acute Leukemia and Myelodysplastic Syndrome

Anurag Singh et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the incidence and outcomes of non-CMV herpesvirus infections in recipients of haploidentical and fully matched transplantations with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy). The results indicate a higher risk of NCHV infections in the PTCy groups, particularly in the HaploCy group. The development of NCHV infection is associated with increased treatment-related mortality.

Post-transplant cyclophosphamide versus anti-thymocyte globulin for graft-versus-host disease prevention in haploidentical transplantation for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Arnon Nagler et al.

Summary: A comparison was made between ATG and PTCy-based GvHD prophylaxis in 434 adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation, showing that PTCy resulted in a lower relapse incidence, improved leukemia-free survival, and overall survival compared to ATG.

Engineered off-the-shelf therapeutic T cells resist host immune rejection

Feiyan Mo et al.

Summary: Engineered T cells targeting allogeneic lymphocytes through the alloimmune defense receptor (ADR) demonstrated effective tumor eradication in mouse models of hematopoietic and solid cancers, offering a potential 'off-the-shelf' therapy for immunocompetent recipients. The ADR selectively recognizes the 4-1BB receptor transiently expressed on activated lymphocytes, allowing for prolonged persistence and therapeutic benefit of rejection-resistant allogeneic T cells. This approach may provide a promising solution to the challenges of manufacturing autologous T cells for cancer therapy.

Viral Infections in HSCT: Detection, Monitoring, Clinical Management, and Immunologic Implications

Claudio Annaloro et al.

Summary: The relationship between viral infections and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is still controversial, with viral infections posing a considerable risk to HSCT recipients and available antiviral agents proving limited in effectiveness. Optimal management of viral infections is key in HSCT strategies.

GVHD Prophylaxis 2020

Mahasweta Gooptu et al.

Summary: GVHD, both acute and chronic, is a major complication of allogeneic transplantation, and its prevention is crucial for the success of transplants. Current standards revolve around calcineurin inhibitors, but promising translational advances targeting T-cell regulation and co-stimulatory pathways are emerging. These approaches are based on a pathophysiology perspective and show potential for transforming GVHD prophylaxis in the near future.

60 Years Young: The Evolving Role of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Cancer Immunotherapy

Nicoletta Cieri et al.

Summary: The year 2020 marked the 30th anniversary of E. Donnall Thomas receiving the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his development of allo-HSCT. This groundbreaking research has had a profound impact on hematology and cancer research, influencing areas such as hematopoiesis, stem cell biology, tumor immunology, and T-cell biology. Understanding the antitumor biology mechanisms associated with allo-HSCT has led to the development of novel transformative immunotherapies used in clinical practice today.

A Review of Infections After Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Requiring PICU Care: Transplant Timeline Is Key

Asmaa Ferdjallah et al.

Summary: Opportunistic infections remain a major cause of morbidity and mortality after pediatric HCT, with risk factors including patient's disease, treatment history, donor graft source, pre-transplant therapy, and immunosuppressive agents. Infection risk changes over time and is greatly influenced by the degree of immunosuppression, highlighting the need for careful monitoring.

Patterns of infection and infectious-related mortality in patients receiving post-transplant high dose cyclophosphamide as graft-versus-host-disease prophylaxis: impact of HLA donor matching

Garcia-Cadenas Irene et al.

Summary: The study found that patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-SCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) are at risk for infections, especially with a higher incidence of early viral infections in haploidentical transplant recipients. However, the mortality rate from severe infections is low and similar across all donor types.
