Abstract Abstract 2260 Poster Board II-237 Several studies have demonstrated that genetic variation in cytokine genes can modulate the immune reactions after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). High mobility group box 1 protein (HMBG1) is a pleiotropic cytokine that functions as a proinflammatory signal, important for the activation of antigen presenting cells (APC) and propagation of inflammation. HMGB1 is implicated in the pathophysiology of a variety of inflammatory diseases, and we have recently found the variation in the HMGB1gene to be associated with mortality in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). To assess the impact of the genetic variation in HMGB1 on outcome after allogeneic HCT, we genotyped 276 and 146 patient/donor pairs treated with allogeneic HCT for hematologic malignancies following myeloablative or non-myeloablative conditioning. Associations between genotypes and outcome were only observed in the cohort treated with myeloablative conditioning. Patient homozygosity or heterozygosity for the –1377delA minor allele was associated with increased risk of relapse (hazard ratio (HR) 2.11, P=0.02) and increased relapse related mortality (RRM) (P=0.03). The –1377delA minor allele has previously been associated with mortality in patients with SIRS, and although SIRS and allogeneic HCT are different entities the confirmative association of this polymorphic locus with mortality in 2 independent studies suggests that it is of pathophysiological importance. The three polymorphisms, 3814C>G, 1177G>C and 2351insT, tended to have the same effect on transplantation outcome, due to a moderate to strong linkage disequilibrium between loci. Of these three polymorphisms, patient homozygosity for the 3814C>G minor allele showed the strongest association with increased overall survival (HR 0.13, P=0.04), progression free survival (HR 0.30, P=0.05) and decreased probability of RRM (P=0.03). Patient carriage of the 2351insT minor allele reduced the risk of grade 2 to 4 acute graft versus host disease (GVHD) (HR 0.60, P=0.01), while donor carriage of the minor allele displayed a gene dosage effect, with a successive increase in risk of developing limited or extensive chronic GVHD per minor allele carried (HR 1.54, P=0.01). That patient HMGB1 genotypes were associated with outcomes dependent on primarily patient APCs, and that donor genotypes were associated with a, in part, donor APC dependent outcome, could suggest that the polymorphisms in HMGB1 influence the transcription of HMGB1 in APCs induced by the proinflammatory milieu after myeloablative conditioning, rather than the passively released from damaged cells, although these two mechanisms are not mutually exclusive. Our findings suggest that the inherited variation in HMGB1 is associated with outcome after allogeneic HCT following myeloablative conditioning. None of the polymorphisms were associated with treatment related mortality. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Comprehensive analyses of unrelated donor (URD) and recipient HLA-matching for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (AHCT) have demonstrated better outcomes when allele typing is performed using high-resolution nucleotide sequence-based techniques. To evaluate survival following myeloablative AHCT using allele-level HLA-matched URD as compared with HLA-identical sibling donors, we analyzed outcomes for 430 patients treated at our center between March 1991 and April 2005. Sequence-based allele typing was retrospectively performed for HLA-A, B, C, DR and DQ when not done at time of AHCT for URD (n = 124; 29%) and non-sibling related donors (n = 19; 4%). Donors were HLA-identical siblings (n = 276; 64%), HLA allele-matched URD (n = 52; 12%), single HLA-locus mismatched donors (n = 52; 12%), or > 1 locus mismatched donors (n = 50; 12%). The median age at transplant was 23.4 years (range: 0.2 – 61). The most common diagnoses were AML (n = 107; 25%), CML (n = 90; 21%), ALL (n = 86; 20%) and MDS (n = 50; 12%). Total body irradiation-based preparative regimens were used for 283 patients (66%). Bone marrow (BM) was the graft for 388 patients (90%) and GCSF-mobilized peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) for the remaining 42 (10%). Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxes were cyclosporine and methotrexate (n = 327; 76%), long methotrexate (n = 42; 10%), T-cell depletion (n = 19; 4%), or other regimens (n = 42; 10%). With a median follow-up of 4.8 years (range: 0.2 – 12.1), the 5-year estimate of overall survival (OS) for the entire group was 48.2% (95% CI: 45.7 – 50.7) and transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 31.4% (95% CI: 28.8 – 34). As shown in the Table, OS and TRM were indistinguishable between AHCT performed with HLA-identical siblings compared with HLA allele-matched URD. There was also no difference in grade III – IV acute GVHD (P = .46) between these two groups whereas there was a trend towards more extensive chronic GVHD (HR 1.8; 95% CI: 0.9 – 3.6; P = 0.12) for the URD recipients. Using a multivariate analysis to adjust for advanced disease, age (> vs ≤ 30 years), graft (BM vs PBSC) and female-to-male gender mismatch, there remained no difference in OS between HLA-identical siblings and HLA allele-matched URD (P = 0.67). These results demonstrate that key outcomes (OS, TRM, and severe acute GVHD) are equivalent in recipients of grafts from either allele-level 10/10 HLA-matched URD or HLA-identical siblings.

Abstract Background Transplantation-related mortality (TRM) is a major obstacle in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Approximately 60–80% of TRM occurs early, within 100 days of transplantation. Methods This was a nationwide population cohort study involving 5395 patients with acute leukemia who underwent allo-HCT between 2003 and 2015. Patient data were collected from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database. We investigated the cumulative incidence rates (CIRs) of early TRM at 50 and 100 days. Results The CIRs of early TRM at 50 and 100 days were 2.9 and 8.3%, respectively. There was no decrease in the CIRs of early TRM over time. The early mortality was significantly higher in patients with more than 9 months between the diagnosis and transplantation (CIRs of TRM at 50, 100 days; 6.0, 13.2%), previous transplantations (CIRs of TRM at 50, 100 days; 9.4, 17.2%), and cord blood transplantation (CIRs of TRM at 50, 100 days; 6.1, 8.3%). The early TRM was significantly lower in patients who received iron chelation before transplantation (CIRs of TRM at 50, 100 days; 0.3, 1.8%). Conclusions In conclusion, the overall CIR of early TRM was less than 10%. The predictable factors for early TRM included age, time from diagnosis to transplantation, the number of prior transplantations, the graft source, and previous iron chelation therapy.

PurposeTransplantation-related mortality (TRM) is a major barrier to the success of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT).Patients and MethodsWe assessed changes in the incidence of TRM and overall survival from 1985 through 2004 in 5,972 patients younger than age 50 years who received myeloablative conditioning and HCT for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) or second complete remission (CR2).ResultsAmong HLA-matched sibling donor transplantation recipients, the relative risks (RRs) for TRM were 0.5 and 0.3 for 2000 to 2004 compared with those for 1985 to 1989 in patients in CR1 and CR2, respectively (P < .001). The RRs for all causes of mortality in the latter period were 0.73 (P = .001) and 0.60 (P = .005) for the CR1 and CR2 groups, respectively. Among unrelated donor transplantation recipients, the RRs for TRM were 0.73 (P = .095) and 0.58 (P < .001) for 2000 to 2004 compared with those in 1990 to 1994 in the CR1 and CR2 groups, respectively. Reductions in mortality were observed in the CR2 group (RR, 0.74; P = .03) but not in the CR1 group.ConclusionOur results suggest that innovations in transplantation care since the 1980s and 1990s have reduced the risk of TRM in patients undergoing allogeneic HCT for AML and that this reduction has been accompanied by improvements in overall survival.
