Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) are considered common complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Objectives and Method: In this study, 114 patients who had undergone allo-HSCT were retrospectively analyzed to investigate the risk factors for onset of posttransplant AKI and CKD as defined by the new Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes criteria. Results: Seventy-four patients (64.9%) developed AKI and 25 (21.9%) developed CKD. The multivariate analysis showed that the risk factors for developing stage 1 or higher AKI were age ≥46 years at the time of transplant (p = 0.001) and use of ≥3 nephrotoxic drugs (p = 0.036). For CKD, the associated risk factors were disease status other than complete remission at the time of transplantation (p = 0.018) and onset of AKI after transplant (p = 0.035). The 5-year overall survival (OS) was significantly reduced by development of AKI (p < 0.001), but not CKD. Posttransplant AKI significantly increased the 5-year nonrelapse mortality (p < 0.001), whereas posttransplant CKD showed an increasing tendency, but the difference was not significant. Conclusions: Posttransplant AKI impacts OS, significantly increases the risk of CKD, and is significantly associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation and use of ˃3 nephrotoxic drugs.

Abstract Abstract 3463 Introduction: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common in survivors of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT). However, evolution over time of kidney dysfunction and its association with post-SCT acute kidney injury (AKI) are unclear. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was performed in 86 myeloablative allogenic SCT patients who received SCT between 1990 and 1999 and lived without relapse for 10 years or more. CKD was defined as a sustained decrease in estimated GFR less than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 at least for a period more than 3 months. Post-SCT AKI was classified into three stages according to the acute kidney injury network (AKIN) criteria within 100 days after SCT. Incidence of new-onset CKD was studied by 1-year interval along the course of follow-up. Cumulative CKD incidence was evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier analysis. The factors associated with CKD at the time of 10 years after SCT were examined using Cox regression analysis. Results: The incident of new CKD was the highest (10.5%) at the first year after SCT and then remained almost constant (2.3 to 3.5%) (Figure 1). The prevalence of CKD increased along the follow-up time (Table 1). The cumulative incidence of CKD increased according to increasing AKI stages with significant difference between stages ≥1 and no AKI (Figure 2). Cox regression showed that each AKIN stage was a significant predictor of CKD: stage 3: hazard ratio (HR) 12.7, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.42–97.6; stage 2: HR 7.75, 95% CI 1.83–53.6; and stage 1: HR 4.36, 95% CI 1.06–29.5. Other predictors included total body irradiation (TBI) (HR, 4.00; 95% CI, 1.63–10.5) and age on SCT (HR, 1.08; 95% CI, 1.03–1.13). Conclusions: CKD accumulated among long-term survivors receiving myeloablative allogenic SCT. Post-SCT AKI, regardless of the AKIN stages, is the most significant risk of CKD in such SCT population. Disclosures: No relevant conflicts of interest to declare.

Abstract Background and Aims Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important sequela of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), but data regarding CKD after pediatric HSCT are limited. Method In this single center cohort study, we evaluated eGFR dynamics, proteinuria and hypertension in the first decade after HSCT and assessed risk factors for chronic kidney disease in 216 pediatric long term HSCT survivors, transplanted between 2002 and 2012. Results The eGFR decreased from median 148 to 116 ml/min/1.73m2 between pre-HSCT and ten years after HSCT. CKD, defined as an eGFR &lt;90 ml/min/1.73m2 and/or proteinuria (KDIGO stage ≥G2 or ≥A2) occurred in 21% of patients. In multivariate analysis, hematological malignancy as HSCT indication (HR 5.5, 95% CI 1.2-25) and cytomegalovirus reactivation (HR 2.4, 95% CI 1.1-5.4) were independent risk factors for CKD. One third of patients with CKD had both an eGFR &lt;90 ml/min/1.73m2 as well as proteinuria, one third had isolated eGFR reduction and one third only had proteinuria. Hypertension was observed in 27% of patients with CKD compared to 4.4% of patients without CKD. Tubular proteinuria was present in 7% of the subgroup of patients (n=71) in which β2-microglobulinuria was measured. Conclusion In conclusion, a significant proportion of pediatric HSCT recipients developed chronic kidney disease within ten years after HSCT. Our data stress the importance of structural long term monitoring of eGFR, urine and blood pressure after HSCT to identify patients with beginning CKD who could benefit most from nephroprotective interventions.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a highly effective treatment strategy for lymphoproliferative disorders and bone marrow failure states including aplastic anemia and thalassemia. However, its use has been limited by the increased treatment related complications, including acute kidney injury (AKI) with an incidence ranging from 20% to 73%. AKI after HSCT has been associated with an increased risk of mortality. The incidence of AKI reported in recipients of myeloablative allogeneic transplant is considerably higher in comparison to other subclasses mainly due to use of cyclosporine and development of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in allogeneic groups. Acute GVHD is by itself a major independent risk factor for the development of AKI in HSCT recipients. The other major risk factors are sepsis, nephrotoxic medications (amphotericin B, acyclovir, aminoglycosides, and cyclosporine), hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), marrow infusion toxicity, and tumor lysis syndrome. The mainstay of management of AKI in these patients is avoidance of risk factors contributing to AKI, including use of reduced intensity-conditioning regimen, close monitoring of nephrotoxic medications, and use of alternative antifungals for prophylaxis against infection. Also, early identification and effective management of sepsis, tumor lysis syndrome, marrow infusion toxicity, and hepatic SOS help in reducing the incidence of AKI in HSCT recipients.

AbstractHematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is becoming an increasingly popular treatment considering that it is the only curative option for many malignant and non-malignant diseases. Many patients treated in this way have been followed for two or three decades post-transplant and are presumed to be cured. But, on the other hand, a great proportion of these patients are experiencing long-term side effects after HSCT, including non-malignant organ or tissue dysfunction, changes in quality of life, infections and secondary malignancy. Renal complications caused by HSCT are high and are associated with the development of both acute and chronic kidney failure. So, considering the increasing numbers of HSCT survivors many years after the transplantation, chronic kidney disease due to HSCT is becoming a growing problem and represents a new population of patients who are presented to nephrologists. The three most common forms of chronic kidney disease related to HSCT are: chronic calcineurin nephrotoxicity, glomerular disease after HSCT and HSCT associated thrombotic microangiopathy.
