Abstract Haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HHCT) using CD3/CD19 depleted grafts may lead to faster engraftment and immune reconstitution since grafts contain also graft-facilitating-cells, CD34− progenitors, NK cells, and dendritic cells. Reduced intensity conditioning may also have a positive impact on immune reconstitution following HHCT. 26 adults received CD3/CD19 depleted HHCT after RIC (150–200 mg/m2 fludarabine, 10mg/kg thiothepa, 120 mg/m2 melphalan and 5mg/day OKT-3 (day −5 to +14)) at our institution between 2005–2008. We prospectively evaluated engraftment and immune reconstitution. B-, NK-, T- and T-cell subsets (CD3/8, CD4/8, CD4/45RA/RO), TCR-Vβ repertoire and NK-cell receptors (NKP30, NKP44, NKP46, NKG2D, CD158a/b/e, CD85j, NKG2A, CD161) were analyzed by FACS. Grafts contained 8.8×106 CD34+ (range, 4.3–18.0 ×106), 2.9×104 CD3+ (range, 1.2–9.2×104) and 3.6×107 CD56+ (range, 0.02–23.0 ×107) cells/kg. Engraftment was rapid with a median time to >500 granulocytes/μl of 11 days (range, 9–15) and a median time to >20 000 platelets/μl of 11 days (range, 8–23). Full chimerism was reached on day 14 (median; range, 6–26). NK-cell engraftment was rapid, reaching normal values on day 20 (median of 247 CD16+CD56+CD3− cells/μl (range, 1–886)) with NK cells comprising up to 70% of lymphocytes. B-cell reconstitution was delayed with 81 (range, 0–280) and 335 (range, 11–452) CD19+20+ cells/μl on days 150 and 400, respectively. T-cell reconstitution was impaired with 49 (range, 0–586) and 364 (range, 35–536) CD3+ cells/μl on day 60 and day 150, respectively. We observed an increase of CD3+CD8+ cells in contrast to CD3+CD4+ cells early after HHCT with a median of 24 (range, 0–399) vs 16 (range, 0–257) and 159 (range, 1–402) vs 96 (range, 18–289) cells/μl on day 50 and day 200, respectively. CD4+CD45RA+ T cells increased slowly while CD4+CD45RO+ T cells reconstituted faster with a median of 61 CD4+CD45RO+ cells/μl (range, 0–310) vs 24 CD4+CD45RA+ (range, 0 to 152) on day 100. Within the CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells there was a slow regeneration with median of 14 CD4+CD25+ cells/μl (range, 0–96) on day 100 and 28 CD4+CD25+ cells/μl (range, 19–160) on day 200. CD14+CD45+ monocytes did not reach normal values within the time of observation with 7 CD14+CD45+ cells/μl (range, 0–21) on day 120 and 7 CD14+CD45+ cells (range, 2–381) on day 400. TCR-Vβ repertoire and NK-cell receptor reconstitution was analyzed so far in 7 and 8 patients, respectively. We found a skewed T-cell repertoire with oligoclonal T-cell expansions to day 100 and normalization after day 200. An increased natural cytotoxicity receptor (NKP30, NKP44, NKP46) and NKG2A, but decreased NKG2D and KIR-expression was observed on NK-cells until day 100. In conclusion, T- and B-cell reconstitution is delayed after HHCT using CD3/CD19 depleted grafts and RIC. However, T-cell reconstitution is faster compared to data published with CD34 selected grafts and myeloablative conditioning. A fast NK-cell reconstitution early after HHCT was observed. Thus a combination of reduced intensity conditioning with CD3/CD19 depleted grafts appears to accelerate the immune recovery after haploidentical stem cell transplantation.

Reduced Intensity

Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) preconditioning intensity, donor choice, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis for advanced myelofibrosis (MF) have not been fully elucidated. Thirty-five patients with advanced MF were treated with reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allo-HCT. We searched for matched sibling (n=16) followed by matched (n=10) or mismatched (n=5) unrelated and familial mismatched donors (n=4). Preconditioning regimen consisted of fludarabine (total 150 mg/m2) and busulfan (total 6.4 mg/kg) with total body irradiation≤ 400cGy. All showed engraftments, but four (11.4%) showed either leukemic relapse (n=3) or delayed graft failure (n=1). Two-year overall survival (OS) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 60.0% and 29.9%, respectively. Acute GVHD was observed in 19 patients, and grade III-IV acute GVHD was higher with HLA-mismatch (70% vs. 20%, p=0.008). Significant hepatic GVHD was observed in nine patients (5 acute, 4 chronic), and six of them died. Multivariate analysis revealed inferior OS with HLA-mismatch (HR=6.40, 95%CI 1.6-25.7, p=0.009) and in patients with high ferritin level at post-HCT D+21 (HR=7.22, 95%CI 1.9-27.5, p=0.004), which were related to hepatic GVHD and high NRM. RIC allo-HCT can be a valid choice for advanced MF. However, HLA-mismatch and high post-HCT ferritin levels related to significant hepatic GVHD should be regarded as poor-risk parameters.
