Long-term results and GvHD after prophylactic and preemptive donor lymphocyte infusion after allogeneic stem cell transplantation for acute leukemia

Christoph Schmid et al.

Summary: This study analyzed 318 acute leukemia patients who received DLI after alloSCT, showing that preemptive DLI was effective in reducing MRD and increasing chimerism, thus improving survival rates for patients.

Can GCSF-stimulated donor lymphocyte infusions improve outcomes for relapsed disease following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation? A systematic review and meta-analysis

Aidan M. Kirkham et al.

Summary: Donor lymphocyte infusions (DLI) can be used to treat tumor relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation, but durable responses are rare. A meta-analysis showed that DLI collected after stimulation with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF; G-DLI) did not significantly improve clinical outcomes compared to conventional DLI (C-DLI), but had higher non-relapse mortality.

Relapse of acute myeloid leukemia after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation: clinical features and outcomes

Masamitsu Yanada et al.

Summary: Posttransplant relapse of AML poses a significant challenge for allogeneic HCT success. The study found that relapse typically occurred around 6.1 months post-transplant, with the highest relapse rate in the first 3-6 months. Overall survival after relapse was 19% at 2 years, with donor lymphocyte infusion and second allogeneic HCT showing some signs of survival benefit when administered during complete remission.

Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor Effectively Mobilizes TCR γδ and NK Cells Providing an Allograft Potentially Enhanced for the Graft-Versus-Leukemia Effect for Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation

Lia Minculescu et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the composition and activation markers of immune cells in donors, as well as the effects of G-CSF on TCR gamma delta and NK cells. Results suggest that G-CSF has differentiated mobilization and altering properties, potentially improving the immune effects of donor TCR gamma delta and NK cells in the prevention of leukemia relapse after HSCT.
