Abstract
This study aims to perform an extensive review of the literature that evaluates various factors that affect the survival rates of patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in developed and developing countries. An extensive search of the literature was made in four different databases (PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Web of Science). The search was carried out in December 2022 and updated in July 2023, and the terms such as "hematopoietic stem cell transplantation," "bone marrow transplant," "mortality," "opportunistic infections," and "survival" associated with "severe combined immunodeficiency" were sought based on the MeSH terms. The language of the articles was "English," and only articles published from 2000 onwards were selected. Twenty-three articles fulfilled the inclusion criteria for review and data extraction. The data collected corroborates that early HSCT, but above all, HSCT in patients without active infections, is related to better overall survival. The universal implementation of newborn screening for SCID will be a fundamental pillar for enabling most transplants to be carried out in this "ideal scenario" at an early age and free from infection. HSCT with an HLA-identical sibling donor is also associated with better survival rates, but this is the least common scenario. For this reason, transplantation with matched unrelated donors (MUD) and mismatched related donors (mMRD/Haploidentical) appear as alternatives. The results obtained with MUD are improving and show survival rates similar to those of MSD, as well as they do not require manipulation of the graft with expensive technologies. However, they still have high rates of complications after HSCT. Transplants with mMRD/Haplo are performed just in a few large centers because of the high costs of the technology to perform CD3/CD19 depletion and TCRαβ/CD19 depletion or CD34 + selection techniques in vitro. The new possibility of in vivo T cell depletion using post-transplant cyclophosphamide could also be a viable alternative for performing mMRD transplants in centers that do not have this technology, especially in developing countries.

Survival in primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis, 2016 to 2021: etoposide is better than its reputation. Blood 2024; 143:872-881. [PMID: 37992218 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2023022281] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/24/2023] Open
Abstract
ABSTRACT Primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (pHLH) is a life-threatening hyperinflammatory syndrome that develops mainly in patients with genetic disorders of lymphocyte cytotoxicity and X-linked lymphoproliferative syndromes. Previous studies with etoposide-based treatment followed by hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) resulted in 5-year survival of 50% to 59%. Contemporary data are lacking. We evaluated 88 patients with pHLH documented in the international HLH registry from 2016-2021. In 12 of 88 patients, diagnosis was made without HLH activity, based on siblings or albinism. Major HLH-directed drugs (etoposide, antithymocyte globulin, alemtuzumab, emapalumab, ruxolitinib) were administered to 66 of 76 patients who were symptomatic (86% first-line etoposide); 16 of 57 patients treated with etoposide and 3 of 9 with other first-line treatment received salvage therapy. HSCT was performed in 75 patients; 7 patients died before HSCT. Three-year probability of survival (pSU) was 82% (confidence interval [CI], 72%-88%) for the entire cohort and 77% (CI, 64%-86%) for patients receiving first-line etoposide. Compared with the HLH-2004 study, both pre-HSCT and post-HSCT survival of patients receiving first-line etoposide improved, 83% to 91% and 70% to 88%. Differences to HLH-2004 included preferential use of reduced-toxicity conditioning and reduced time from diagnosis to HSCT (from 148 to 88 days). Three-year pSU was lower with haploidentical (4 of 9 patients [44%]) than with other donors (62 of 66 [94%]; P < .001). Importantly, early HSCT for patients who were asymptomatic resulted in 100% survival, emphasizing the potential benefit of newborn screening. This contemporary standard-of-care study of patients with pHLH reveals that first-line etoposide-based therapy is better than previously reported, providing a benchmark for novel treatment regimes.

Abstract
Allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the most important therapeutic option for hematological disorders, although graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remains the main cause of mortality. Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCY) induces immune tolerance and is associated with a low incidence of GVHD and non-relapse mortality. Therefore, PTCY has emerged as a safe and effective GVHD prophylaxis in haploidentical transplantation and has been expanded to matched related or unrelated donor and mismatched unrelated donor HSCT. On the basis of current understanding of the mechanisms of PTCY and antithymocyte globulin (ATG) in the prevention of GVHD, growing evidence suggests that the combination of ATG and PTCY could improve allo-HSCT clinical outcomes. Further research will focus on optimizing PTCY regimens by modifying the timing of administration or adding other immunosuppressive agents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Assessment of T-cell receptor excision circles (TRECs) in dried blood spots of newborns allows the detection of severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (T cells <300/μL at birth) with a presumed sensitivity of 100%. TREC screening also identifies patients with selected combined immunodeficiency (CID) (T cells >300/μL, yet <1500/μL at birth). Nevertheless, relevant CIDs that would benefit from early recognition and curative treatment pass undetected. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that TREC screening at birth cannot identify CIDs that develop with age. METHODS We analyzed the number of TRECs in dried blood spots in archived Guthrie cards of 22 children who had been born in the Berlin-Brandenburg area between January 2006 and November 2018 and who had undergone hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) for inborn errors of immunity. RESULTS All patients with SCID would have been identified by TREC screening, but only 4 of 6 with CID. One of these patients had immunodeficiency, centromeric instability, and facial anomalies syndrome type 2 (ICF2). Two of 3 patients with ICF whom we have been following up at our institution had TREC numbers above the cutoff value suggestive of SCID at birth. Yet all patients with ICF had a severe clinical course that would have justified earlier HSCT. CONCLUSIONS In ICF, naïve T cells may be present at birth, yet they decline with age. Therefore, TREC screening cannot identify these patients. Early recognition is nevertheless crucial, as patients with ICF benefit from HSCT early in life.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is a curative treatment for many inborn errors of immunity (IEI). Incremental improvements and advances in care have led to high rates of >85% survival and cure in many of these diseases. Improvements in HLA-classification and matching have led to increased survival using HLA-matched donors, but survival using T-lymphocyte-depleted mismatched grafts remained significantly worse until fairly recently. Advances in T-lymphocyte depletion methods and graft engineering, although not specific to IEI, have been widely adopted and instrumental in changing the landscape of donor selection, such that a donor should now be possible for every patient. AREAS COVERED A literature review focusing on T-lymphocyte depletion methodologies and treatment results was performed. The importance of early T-lymphocyte immunoreconstitution to protect against viral infection is reviewed. Two main platforms now dominate the field - immune-magnetic selection of specific cell types and post-transplant chemotherapeutic targeting of rapidly proliferating allo-reactive T-lymphocytes - the emerging literature on these reports, focusing on IEI, is explored, as well as the impact of serotherapy on early immunoreconstitution. EXPERT OPINION Pharmacokinetic monitoring of serotherapy agents, and use of co-stimulatory molecule blockade are likely to become more widespread. Post-transplant cyclophosphamide or TCR depletion strategies are likely to become the dominant methods of transplantation for nonmalignant diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A minority of children experience significant graft dysfunction after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for inborn errors of immunity (IEI). The optimal approach to salvage HSCT is unclear with respect to conditioning regimen and stem cell source. This single-centre retrospective case series reports the outcomes of salvage CD3+TCRαβ/CD19 depleted mismatched family or unrelated donor stem cell transplantation (TCRαβ-SCT) between 2013 - 2022 for graft dysfunction in 12 children with IEI. OBJECTIVES Outcomes of interest were overall survival (OS), event free survival (EFS), graft-versus-host disease (GvHD)-free and event-free survival (GEFS), toxicities, GvHD, viremia and long-term graft function. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective audit of patients who underwent second CD3+TCRαβ/CD19 depleted mismatched donor graft using Treosulfan-based reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning. RESULTS Median age at first HSCT was 8.76 months (range, 2.5 months - 6 years) and at second TCRαβ-SCT was 3.6 years (1.2 - 11 years). Median interval between first and second HSCT was 1.7 years (3 months - 9 years). The primary diagnoses were: severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (n=5) and non-SCID IEI (n=7). The indications for second HSCT were: primary aplasia (n=1), secondary autologous reconstitution (n=6), refractory aGVHD (n=3) and secondary leukemia (n=1). Donors were either haploidentical parental donors (n=10) or mismatched unrelated donors (n=2). All received TCRαβ/CD19-depleted-PBSC with a median CD34+ cell dose of 9.3 × 106/kg (2.8-32.3 × 106/kg) and a median TCRαβ+ cell dose of 4 × 104/kg (1.3-19.2 × 104/kg). All engrafted with median days to neutrophil and platelet recovery of 15 (12-24) and 12 (9-19). One developed secondary aplasia and one had secondary autologous reconstitution, but both underwent a successful third HSCT. Four (33%) had grade II aGvHD and none had grade III-IV aGvHD. None had cGvHD but one developed extensive cutaneous cGVHD after third HSCT using PBSC and ATG. Nine (75%) were noted to have at least one episode of blood viremia with HHV6 (n=6, 50%), adenovirus (n=6, 50%), EBV (n=3, 25%) or CMV (n=3; 25%). Median duration of follow-up was 2.3 years (range: 0.5 - 10 years) and the 2-year OS, EFS and GEFS were 100% (95% confidence interval, 0-100%), 73% (37-90%) and 73% (37%-90%) respectively. CONCLUSIONS TCRαβ-SCT from mismatched family or unrelated donors, using a chemotherapy only regimen, is a safe alternative donor salvage transplant strategy for second HSCT in patients without a suitably matched donor.

Slatter M, Lum SH. Personalized hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1162605. [PMID: 37090739 PMCID: PMC10113466 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1162605] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/20/2023] [Indexed: 04/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI) have been transplanted for more than 50 years. Many long-term survivors have ongoing medical issues showing the need for further improvements in how hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is performed if patients in the future are to have a normal quality of life. Precise genetic diagnosis enables early treatment before recurrent infection, autoimmunity and organ impairment occur. Newborn screening for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) is established in many countries. For newly described disorders the decision to transplant is not straight-forward. Specific biologic therapies are effective for some diseases and can be used as a bridge to HSCT to improve outcome. Developments in reduced toxicity conditioning and methods of T-cell depletion for mismatched donors have made transplant an option for all eligible patients. Further refinements in conditioning plus precise graft composition and additional cellular therapy are emerging as techniques to personalize the approach to HSCT for each patient.

Abstract
PURPOSE Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is an established therapy for many inborn errors of immunity (IEI). The indications for HSCT have expanded over the last decade. The study aimed to collect and analyze the data on HSCT activity in IEI in Russia. METHODS The data were collected from the Russian Primary Immunodeficiency Registry and complemented with information from five Russian pediatric transplant centers. Patients diagnosed with IEI by the age of 18 years and who received allogeneic HSCT by the end of 2020 were included. RESULTS From 1997 to 2020, 454 patients with IEI received 514 allogeneic HSCT. The median number of HSCTs per year has risen from 3 in 1997-2009 to 60 in 2015-2020. The most common groups of IEI were immunodeficiency affecting cellular and humoral immunity (26%), combined immunodeficiency with associated/syndromic features (28%), phagocyte defects (21%), and diseases of immune dysregulation (17%). The distribution of IEI diagnosis has changed: before 2012, the majority (65%) had severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) and hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), and after 2012, only 24% had SCID and HLH. Of 513 HSCTs, 48.5% were performed from matched-unrelated, 36.5% from mismatched-related (MMRD), and 15% from matched-related donors. In 349 transplants T-cell depletion was used: 325 TCRαβ/CD19+ depletion, 39 post-transplant cyclophosphamide, and 27 other. The proportion of MMRD has risen over the recent years. CONCLUSION The practice of HSCT in IEI has been changing in Russia. Expanding indications to HSCT and SCID newborn screening implementation may necessitate additional transplant beds for IEI in Russia.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an effective treatment to cure inborn errors of immunity. Remarkable progress has been achieved thanks to the development and optimization of effective combination of advanced conditioning regimens and use of immunoablative/suppressive agents preventing rejection as well as graft versus host disease. Despite these tremendous advances, autologous hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell therapy based on ex vivo gene addition exploiting integrating γ-retro- or lenti-viral vectors, has demonstrated to be an innovative and safe therapeutic strategy providing proof of correction without the complications of the allogeneic approach. The recent advent of targeted gene editing able to precisely correct genomic variants in an intended locus of the genome, by introducing deletions, insertions, nucleotide substitutions or introducing a corrective cassette, is emerging in the clinical setting, further extending the therapeutic armamentarium and offering a cure to inherited immune defects not approachable by conventional gene addition. In this review, we will analyze the current state-of-the art of conventional gene therapy and innovative protocols of genome editing in various primary immunodeficiencies, describing preclinical models and clinical data obtained from different trials, highlighting potential advantages and limits of gene correction.

Abstract
Patients with hypomorphic mutations in the RAG1 or RAG2 gene present with either Omenn syndrome or atypical combined immunodeficiency with a wide phenotypic range. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is potentially curative, but data are scarce. We report on a worldwide cohort of 60 patients with hypomorphic RAG variants who underwent HSCT, 78% of whom experienced infections (29% active at HSCT), 72% had autoimmunity, and 18% had granulomas pretransplant. These complications are frequently associated with organ damage. Eight individuals (13%) were diagnosed by newborn screening or family history. HSCT was performed at a median of 3.4 years (range 0.3-42.9 years) from matched unrelated donors, matched sibling or matched family donors, or mismatched donors in 48%, 22%, and 30% of the patients, respectively. Grafts were T-cell depleted in 15 cases (25%). Overall survival at 1 and 4 years was 77.5% and 67.5% (median follow-up of 39 months). Infection was the main cause of death. In univariable analysis, active infection, organ damage pre-HSCT, T-cell depletion of the graft, and transplant from a mismatched family donor were predictive of worse outcome, whereas organ damage and T-cell depletion remained significant in multivariable analysis (hazard ratio [HR] = 6.01, HR = 8.46, respectively). All patients diagnosed by newborn screening or family history survived. Cumulative incidences of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease were 35% and 22%, respectively. Cumulative incidences of new-onset autoimmunity was 15%. Immune reconstitution, particularly recovery of naïve CD4+ T cells, was faster and more robust in patients transplanted before 3.5 years of age, and without organ damage. These findings support the indication for early transplantation.

Abstract
Most patients with osteopetrosis (OPT) can be causally and curatively treated with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) because osteoclasts are derived from the HSC. However, HSCT is contraindicated in some forms of OPT, namely OPT with neurodegeneration (in all patients with OSTM1 and about half of patients with CLCN7 mutations) and OPT caused by an osteoblast defect (patients with RANKL mutations). HSCT for OPT risks serious side effects, such as transplant failure, venous occlusive disease, pulmonary hypertension, and hypercalcemic crises. Nevertheless, the success rate of HSCT has improved significantly in recent decades. This applies, in particular, to HSCT from non-HLA compatible (haploidentical) donors. Therefore, nowadays an HSCT can be discussed for intermediate OPT forms. After a successful HSCT, most patients have very good quality of life, but about two-thirds are visually impaired, and in rarer cases show motor and neurological disabilities. Early diagnosis, further improvements in transplantation procedures, and advances to improve quality-of-life after transplantation are challenges for the future.

Abstract
Chronic granulomatous disease is an inborn error of immunity due to disrupted function of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase complex. This results in impaired respiratory burst of phagocytes and insufficient killing of bacteria and fungi. Patients with chronic granulomatous disease are at increased risk for infections, autoinflammation and autoimmunity. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only widely available curative therapy. While HSCT from human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched siblings or unrelated donors are standard of care, transplantation from HLA-haploidentical donors or gene therapy are considered alternative options. We describe a 14-month-old male with X-linked chronic granulomatous disease who underwent a paternal HLA-haploidentical HSCT using T-cell receptor (TCR) alpha/beta+/CD19+ depleted peripheral blood stem cells followed by mycophenolate graft versus host disease prophylaxis. Decreasing donor fraction of CD3+ T cells was overcome by repeated infusions of donor lymphocytes from the paternal HLA-haploidentical donor. The patient achieved normalized respiratory burst and full donor chimerism. He remained disease-free off any antibiotic prophylaxis for more than three years after HLA-haploidentical HSCT. In patients with x-linked chronic granulomatous disease without a matched donor paternal HLA-haploidentical HSCT is a treatment option worth to consider. Administration of donor lymphocytes can prevent imminent graft failure.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for inborn errors of immunity: 30-year single-center experience. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1103080. [PMID: 36825011 PMCID: PMC9941625 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1103080] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2022] [Accepted: 01/20/2023] [Indexed: 02/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) represents an effective treatment for a variety of inborn errors of immunity (IEI). We report the experience of children affected by IEI who received allo-HSCT over a period of 32 years at IRCCS Istituto Giannina Gaslini, Genoa, Italy. HSCTs were performed in 67 children with IEI. Kaplan-Meier estimates of overall survival (OS) rate at 5 years in the whole group of patients was 83.4% after a median follow-up of 4 years. Median age at transplant was 2.5 years. Eight allo-HSCTs were complicated by either primary or secondary graft failure (GF), the overall incidence of this complication being 10.9%. Incidence of grade 3-4 acute GvHD (aGvHD) was 18.7%, significantly lower in the haploidentical transplant cohort (p = 0.005). Year of transplant (≤2006 vs. >2006) was the main factor influencing the outcome. In fact, a significant improvement in 5-year OS was demonstrated (92.5% >2006 vs. 65% ≤2006, p = 0.049). Frequency of severe aGvHD was significantly reduced in recent years (≤2006 61.5%, vs. >2006 20%, p = 0.027). A significant progress has been the introduction of the TCR αβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical platform, which was associated with the absence of severe aGvHD. However, it was associated with 23.5% incidence of GF. All but one patient experiencing GF in the this specific cohort were successfully retransplanted. In summary, allo-HSCT is confirmed to be an effective treatment for children with IEI, even in the absence of an HLA-matched donor.

Abstract
Leukocyte adhesion deficiency type I (LAD-I) is a rare autosomal recessive inborn error of immunity (IEI) caused by the defects in CD18, encoded by the ITGB2 gene. LAD-I is characterized by defective leukocyte adhesion to the vascular endothelium and impaired migration of leukocytes. Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is the only curative treatment for LAD-I. In an absence of ideal donor for HCT, human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical HCT is performed. Posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) is a relatively new graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylactic measure and has been increasingly used in HLA-haploidentical HCT for malignant and nonmalignant diseases. However, experience in using PT-CY for rare IEIs, such as LAD-I, is very limited. We report a case of LAD-I successfully treated with HLA-haploidentical HCT with PT-CY. Complete chimerism was achieved, and the patient was cured. Her transplant course was complicated by mild GVHD, cytomegalovirus reactivation and veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, which were successfully treated. HLA-haploidentical HCT with PT-CY is a safe and effective option for patients with LAD-I when HLA-matched donors are unavailable.

Abstract
Infantile malignant osteopetrosis is a debilitating disease that requires total bone marrow irradiation and transplant procedures for patients to survive. The major complication of this procedure is graft vs host disease (GVHD), followed by infections and end organ toxicity. Therefore, current research efforts into treatment mainly aim to reduce GVHD while limiting infections and organ toxicity. Different regimens of alkylating agents have been used to try to reduce GVHD. The most common regimen is cyclophosphamide (Cy) with busulfan (Bu), followed by Cy with Bu and thiotepa (Thio). This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of different treatments by comparing mortality and morbidity causes and rates across groups. The mean one-year survival rate for the Cy, Bu, Thio regimen studies in the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) unmatched group (45.01%) was statistically lower than the one-year survival rate for the studies using just a Cy, Bu regimen (70.8%) in the HLA unmatched studies (p<0.00142). The one-year survival in the studies which had HLA-matched donors was 80.56%, which is statistically higher (p<0.001) than the one-year survival in the HLA-unmatched studies (53.96%), indicating a benefit of finding HLA-matched donors. It seems that price and availability could be a factor in the widespread use of Cy.

Abstract
Primary immunodeficiencies (PID) are heterogeneous inborn errors of the immune system. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is curative and safe at the pediatric age but remains underperformed in adults. We report our experience on 32 consecutive adult patients with various PID including 17 (53%) with a combined immune deficiency, six (19%) with a disease of immune dysregulation and nine (28%) with a chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) who underwent an allo-HSCT between 2011 and 2020. The median age at transplant was 27 years (17-41). All assessable patients engrafted. The majority of patients received a fludarabine-Busulfan (FB) based regimen (FB2-3 in 16, FB4 in 12). Overall survival (OS) was 80.4% (100% for CGD and 74% for other PID patients) at 9 months and beyond (median follow-up 51.6 months). Six patients died, all in the first-year post-transplant. Cumulative incidences of grade II-IV acute GVHD/chronic GVHD were 18%/22%. Stem cell source, GVHD prophylaxis and conditioning intensity had no impact on OS. All surviving patients had over 90% donor chimerism, immune reconstitution, no sign of active PID related complications and were clinically improved. Allo-HSCT is effective in young adults PID patients with an acceptable toxicity and should be discussed in case of life-threatening PID.

Abstract
Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) are caused by germline genetic mutations, resulting in defects of innate or acquired immunity. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is indicated for curative therapy especially in patients with IEI who develop fatal opportunistic infections or severe manifestations of immune dysregulation. The first successful HCT for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) was reported in 1968. Since then, the indications for HCT have expanded from SCID to various non-SCID IEI. In general, HCT for IEI differs from that for other hematological malignancies in that the goal is not to eradicate certain immune cells but to achieve immune reconstitution. European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation/European Society for Immunodeficiencies guidelines recommend reduced-intensity conditioning to avoid treatment-related toxicity, and the optimal conditioning regimen should be considered for each IEI. We review conditioning regimens for some representative IEI disorders in Japanese and worldwide cohort studies, and future strategies for treating IEI.

Abstract
Mutations in the ARPC1B isoform component of human actin-related protein 2/3 complex have been recently associated with an inborn error of immunity characterized by combined immunodeficiency, allergies, autoinflammation, and platelet abnormalities. Currently, indications on the management of this novel disease and information on its outcome are lacking. We report the first case series of 7 children with a homozygous mutation in ARPC1B gene who underwent allogeneic-HSCT (allo-HSCT). All patients presented an early clinical onset, characterized by recurrent infections, failure to thrive and gastrointestinal bleeding episodes complicated with neonatal hemorrhagic enteritis in 3 cases, and macrophage activating syndrome in 2. Allo-HSCT was performed at the median age of 1.83 years after a myeloablative conditioning regimen in all cases. Engraftment occurred in all patients with full donor chimerism in 6 out of 7. The clinical course after engraftment was uneventful in 3 out of 7 children; 2 patients developed a grade 1-2 acute graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), and 1 patient a grade 1 chronic-GvHD. JC virus-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy was diagnosed in one patient 13 months after haploidentical-HSCT and successfully managed with donor-derived viral-specific T-cell infusion. Only one patient had a fatal outcome 3 months after HSCT because of sepsis, after veno-occlusive disease, and transplant-associated microangiopathy. At a median follow-up of 19 months (range 3-110), 6 out of 7 patients are alive and disease-free. The severity of the clinical phenotype at diagnosis and the high survival rate, with limited transplant-related morbidity, strongly support the indication to allo-HSCT for patients with this diagnosis.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) can be curative for a variety of non-malignant diseases (NMDs) as well as hematological malignancies. However, there are several fundamental differences between HCT for NMDs and hematological malignancies, which may necessitate the use of alternative HCT strategies. For example, these diseases differ in the intensity of conditioning regimen sufficient to improve disease. In addition, patients with NMDs are at higher risk of graft failure or mixed chimerism following HCT, and gain no or little survival benefit from graft-versus-host disease. Because more than 80% of patients with NMDs become long-term survivors, greater attention has been paid to late adverse effects and decreased of quality of life after HCT. This review addresses several unresolved issues in allogeneic HCT for patients with NMDs, such as (1) stem cell source, (2) conditioning regimen, (3) use of serotherapy or low-dose irradiation, and (4) therapeutic intervention for mixed chimerism. Resolving these issues may improve transplant outcomes in patients with NMDs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND . Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) represents a valuable alternative for children with non-malignant disease and ex-vivo negative selection of TCR αβ+-cells is an emerging graft manipulation option that carries several potential advantages in terms of reduced risk of Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) and improved immune reconstitution. METHODS . We reported all consecutive patients with a diagnosis of non-malignant disease who received a TCR-αβ+ and CD19+depleted haplo-HSCT at "IRCCS Istituto Giannina Gaslini" from 2013 to 2019; the conditioning regimen was myeloablative or non-myeloablative, depending on underlying disease; all patients received anti-thymocyte globulin and rituximab. No post-transplant GvHD prophylaxis was given in presence of a TCR-αβ+ cell-dose in the graft lower than the threshold of 1 × 105/kg of the recipient's weight. RESULTS . Among 20 HSCTs, engraftment occurred in 17 (85%) after a median of 14 and 12 days from graft infusion for neutrophils and platelets respectively. Primary graft failure was diagnosed in 3 (15%) patients, two (10%) experienced secondary rejection; all of these underwent a second HSCT. The cumulative incidence of a-GvHD and c-GvHD was 15% (2 grade 1, 1 grade 4) at 90 days and 5% (1 grade 1) at 7 months, respectively. Cytomegalovirus reactivation requiring pre-emptive treatment was observed in 9 patients (45%). One patient developed a JC virus-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, successfully managed with donor-derived virus-specific T-cell infusions. A complete immunological recovery was reached in most patients within 6 months. After a median follow-up of 4 years, 18 patients are alive, with a cumulative survival probability of 90%. CONCLUSION . Haplo-HSCT after ex-vivo TCR-αβ+/CD19+ negative selection may be considered a good option for children with non-malignant diseases since it ensures a high engraftment rate with an acceptable risk of graft failure, very low incidence of significant GvHD, and good immune reconstitution with low frequency of severe virus-related disease. However, the control of viral infection/reactivation should be kept high in order to promptly provide pre-emptive treatments and approaches of antiviral adoptive immunotherapy.

Purpose of Review
This review presents an appraisal of current therapeutic options for the treatment of central nervous system haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (CNS-HLH) in the context of systemic disease, as well as when CNS features occur in isolation. We present the reader with a diagnostic approach to CNS-HLH and commonly used treatment protocols. We discuss and evaluate newer treatments on the horizon.

Mortality is high in patients who do not undergo HSCT, and while larger studies are required to establish benefit in many treatments, a number of new treatments are currently being evaluated. Alemtuzumab is being used as a first-line treatment for CNS-HLH in a phase I/II multicentre prospective clinical trial as an alternative to traditional HLH-1994 and 2004 protocols. It has also been used successfully as a second-line agent for the treatment of isolated CNS-HLH that is refractory to standard treatment. Ruxolitinib and emapalumab are new immunotherapies that block the Janus kinase—Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway that have shown efficacy in refractory HLH, including for CNS-HLH disease.
Summary
Treatment of CNS-HLH often requires HLH-94 or 2004 protocols followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to maintain remission, although relapse can occur, particularly with reduced intensity conditioning if donor chimerism falls. CNS features have been shown to improve or stabilise following HSCT in CNS-HLH in the context of systemic disease and in isolated CNS-HLH. Encouraging reports of early cohort studies suggest alemtuzumab and the Janus kinase (JAK) inhibitor ruxolitinib offer potential salvage therapy for relapsed and refractory CNS-HLH. Newer immunotherapies such as tocilizumab and natalizumab have been shown to be beneficial in sporadic cases. CNS-HLH due to primary gene defects may be amenable to gene therapy in the future.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW To summarize the currently available definitive therapies for patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEIs) with a strong focus on recent advances in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) and gene therapy, including the use of alternative donors, graft manipulation techniques, less toxic approaches for pretransplant conditioning and gene transfer using autologous hematopoietic stem cells. RECENT FINDINGS In the absence of a matched sibling or a matched related donor, therapeutic alternatives for patients with IEIs include alternative donor transplantation or autologous gene therapy, which is only available for selected IEIs. In recent years, several groups have published their experience with haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HHCT) using different T-cell depletion strategies. Overall survival and event free survival results, although variable among centers, are encouraging. Preliminary results from autologous gene therapy trials with safer vectors and low-dose busulfan conditioning have shown reproducible and successful results. Both strategies have become valid therapeutic options for patients with IEIs. A new promising and less toxic conditioning regimen strategy is also discussed. SUMMARY Definitive therapies for IEIs with HCT and gene therapy are in stage of evolution, not only to refine their efficacy and safety but also their reach to a larger number of patients.

Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome: an EBMT inborn errors working party analysis. Blood 2022; 139:2066-2079. [PMID: 35100336 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2021014687] [Citation(s) in RCA: 26] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for patients affected by Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS). Reported HSCT outcomes have improved over time with respect to overall survival, but some studies have identified older age and HSCT from alternative donors as risk factors predicting poorer outcome. We analyzed 197 patients transplanted at EBMT centers between 2006 and 2017, who received conditioning as recommended by the inborn errors working party (IEWP): either busulfan (n=103) or treosulfan (n=94) combined with fludarabine ± thiotepa. After a median follow-up after HSCT of 44.9 months, 176 patients were alive, resulting in a 3-year overall survival of 88.7%, and chronic GVHD-free survival (CRFS; events: death, graft failure, severe chronic GVHD) of 81.7%. Overall survival and CRFS were not significantly impacted by conditioning regimen (busulfan- versus treosulfan-based), donor type (MSD/MFD vs MUD/MMUD vs. MMFD), and period of HSCT (2006-2013 vs. 2014-2017). Patients younger than 5 years at HSCT had a significantly better overall survival. The overall cumulative incidences of grade III-IV acute GVHD and extensive/moderate/severe chronic GVHD were 6.6% and 2.1%, respectively. Patients receiving treosulfan-based conditioning had a higher incidence of graft failure, mixed donor chimerism and more frequently received secondary procedures (2nd HSCT, unconditioned stem cell boost, donor lymphocyte infusion, or splenectomy). In summary, HSCT for WAS with conditioning regimens currently recommended by IEWP results in excellent survival and low rates of GVHD, regardless of donor or stem cell source, but age ≥5 years remains a risk factor for overall survival.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For many patients with Primary immune deficiency (PID), stem-cell transplantation (SCT) may be lifesaving. OBJECTIVE To review our experience of 11 years transplanting children with PID in Mexico. METHODS Chart review of patients who underwent SCT from 2008 to 2018, to describe their diagnoses, time to transplant, conditioning regime, survival rate and outcomes. All patients received post-transplant cyclophosphamide as graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. RESULTS 19 patients with combined, phagocytic or syndromic PID from 5 states. Twelve of them were male (58%) and 14 survive (79%). Mean age at HSCT was 41.9 months; mean time from diagnosis, 31.2 months. Seven grafts were umbilical cord and 12 haploidentical. The conditioning regime was myeloablative, with seven primary graft failures. Two patients had partial and 10 full chimerism. Five patients died within 2 months after transplant. Immune reconstitution was complete in 11 of 19 patients. We found a prevalence of 21% GVHD. DISCUSSION We describe 19 patients from Mexico with 8 PID diagnoses who underwent allogenic HSCT over a period of 11 years. Survival rate and other outcomes compare well with industrialized countries. We recommend the use of post-transplant cyclophosphamide to prevent GVHD in scenarios of resource scarcity and a lack of HLA-identical donors.

Abstract
PURPOSE Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative therapy for most patients with inborn errors of immunity (IEI). We conducted a nationwide study on HCT for patients with IEI other than severe combined immunodeficiency (non-SCID) in Japan. METHODS Data from the Japanese national database (Transplant Registry Unified Management Program, TRUMP) for 566 patients with non-SCID IEI, who underwent their first HCT between 1985 and 2016, were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS The 10-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were 74% and 64%, respectively. The 10-year OS for HCT from unrelated bone marrow (URBM), accounting for 39% of HCTs, was comparable to that for HCT from matched sibling donor (MSD), 79% and 81%, respectively. HCT from unrelated cord blood (URCB), accounting for 28% of HCTs, was also common, with a 10-year OS of 69% but less robust engraftment. The intensity of conditioning was not associated with OS or neutrophil recovery; however, myeloablative conditioning was more frequently associated with infection-related death. Patients who received myeloablative irradiation showed poor OS. Multivariate analyses revealed that HCT in 1985-1995 (hazard ratio [HR], 2.0; P = 0.03), URCB (HR, 2.0; P = 0.01), and related donor other than MSD (ORD) (HR, 2.9; P < 0.001) were associated with poor OS, and URCB (HR, 3.6; P < 0.001) and ORD (HR, 2.7; P = 0.02) showed a higher incidence of retransplantation. CONCLUSIONS We present the 1985-2016 status of HCT for non-SCID IEI in Japan with sufficient statistical power, highlighting the potential of URBM as an alternative donor and the feasibility of reduced intensity conditioning.

Abstract
We aimed to analyze data in children with primary hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We performed a retrospective study where children up to 18 years, with primary HLH and who underwent HSCT from January 2011 to December 2019, were included. Twenty-five children with genetic HLH underwent HSCT, including variants (Griscelli syndrome (GS2) 7, Chediak-Higashi syndrome (CHS) 2, XIAP mutation 2). Donors were matched family 8 (32%), umbilical cord blood unit 3 (12%), matched unrelated 2 (8%), haploidentical HSCT 12 (48%), (TCR alpha/beta depletion 2 and post-transplant cyclophosphamide 10). With treosulfan-based conditioning, engraftment was achieved in 23/25 (92%) transplants (100% in haplo-HSCT), with sustained complete chimerism in 87%. Disease-free survival was noted in 2/3 children with stable mixed chimerism. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) of grade I/II was noted in 6 (24%), grade III in 3 (13%); chronic limited skin GVHD in 2 (12%) children. Overall survival was 72% (87.5% in matched donor, 66.7% in the haplo-HSCT), 71% in GS2, 50% in CHS, 100% in XIAP. HSCT is curative in primary HLH with acceptable disease-free survival with mixed chimerism. Haplo-HSCT is a viable option for those without matched family or unrelated donors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PID) are characterized by the occurrence of frequent infections and are caused by many genetic defects. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative treatment option for the majority of PID. As a Pediatric Hematology-Oncology-Immunology Transplantation Unit, we wanted to present our HSCT experience regarding treatment of primary immunodeficiency diseases. METHODS 58 patients were included in the study between January 2014 and June 2019. We searched 9/10 or 10/10 matched-related donor (MRD) firstly, in the absence of fully matched-related donor. We screened matched unrelated donor (MUD) from donor banks. MRD was used in 24 (41.3%) patients, MUD in 20 (34.4%) patients, and haploidentical donors in 14 (24.1%) patients. Demographic data, HSCT characteristics, and outcome were evaluated. While 16 patients had severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), the remaining was non-SCID. RESULTS Of the 58 patients, 38 were male and 20 were female. Median age at transplantation was 12 months (range: 2.5-172 months). Combined immunodeficiencies consisted 67.2% of patients. Mean follow-up time was 27 months (6 months-5 years). Median neutrophil, lymphocyte, and thrombocyte engraftment days were similar in comparison of both donor type and stem cell source. The most common complication was acute GvHD in 15 (25.8%) patients. In total, five patients (31%) belonging to the SCID group and 10 patients (23.8%) belonging to the non-SCID group died. Our total mortality rate was 15 (25.8%) in all patients. CONCLUSIONS We would like to present our HSCT experiences as a pediatric immunology transplantation center. Existing severe infections before transplantation period, BCGitis, and CMV are important issues of transplantation in Turkey. However, the follow-up time is shorter than some studies, our results regarding complications and survival are similar to previous reports.

BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) represents a curative treatment for patients with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), a group of monogenic immune disorders with an otherwise fatal outcome. OBJECTIVE We performed a comprehensive multicenter analysis of genotype-specific HSCT outcome, including detailed analysis of immune reconstitution (IR) and the predictive value for clinical outcome. METHODS HSCT outcome was studied in 338 patients with genetically confirmed SCID who underwent transplantation in 2006-2014 and who were registered in the SCETIDE registry. In a representative subgroup of 152 patients, data on IR and long-term clinical outcome were analyzed. RESULTS Two-year OS was similar with matched family and unrelated donors and better than mismatched donor HSCT (P < .001). The 2-year event-free survival (EFS) was similar in matched and mismatched unrelated donor and less favorable in mismatched related donor (MMRD) HSCT (P < .001). Genetic subgroups did not differ in 2-year OS (P = .1) and EFS (P = .073). In multivariate analysis, pretransplantation infections and use of MMRDs were associated with less favorable OS and EFS. With a median follow-up of 6.2 years (range, 2.0-11.8 years), 73 of 152 patients in the IR cohort were alive and well without Ig dependency. IL-2 receptor gamma chain/Janus kinase 3/IL-7 receptor-deficient SCID, myeloablative conditioning, matched donor HSCT, and naive CD4 T lymphocytes >0.5 × 10e3/μL at +1 year were identified as independent predictors of favorable clinical and immunologic outcome. CONCLUSION Recent advances in HSCT in SCID patients have resulted in improved OS and EFS in all genotypes and donor types. To achieve a favorable long-term outcome, treatment strategies should aim for optimal naive CD4 T lymphocyte regeneration.

Clinical, Immunological, and Molecular Variability of RAG Deficiency: A Retrospective Analysis of 22 RAG Patients. J Clin Immunol 2021; 42:130-145. [PMID: 34664192 PMCID: PMC8821501 DOI: 10.1007/s10875-021-01130-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2021] [Accepted: 08/29/2021] [Indexed: 11/05/2022]
Abstract
Purpose We described clinical, immunological, and molecular characterization within a cohort of 22 RAG patients focused on the possible correlation between clinical and genetic data. Methods Immunological and genetic features were investigated by multiparametric flow cytometry and by Sanger or next generation sequencing (NGS) as appropriate. Results Patients represented a broad spectrum of RAG deficiencies: SCID, OS, LS/AS, and CID. Three novel mutations in RAG1 gene and one in RAG2 were reported. The primary symptom at presentation was infections (81.8%). Infections and autoimmunity occurred together in the majority of cases (63.6%). Fifteen out of 22 (68.2%) patients presented autoimmune or inflammatory manifestations. Five patients experienced severe autoimmune cytopenia refractory to different lines of therapy. Total lymphocytes count was reduced or almost lacking in SCID group and higher in OS patients. B lymphocytes were variably detected in LS/AS and CID groups. Eighteen patients underwent HSCT permitting definitive control of autoimmune/hyperinflammatory manifestations in twelve of them (80%). Conclusion We reinforce the notion that different clinical phenotype can be found in patients with identical mutations even within the same family. Infections may influence genotype–phenotype correlation and function as trigger for immune dysregulation or autoimmune manifestations. Severe and early autoimmune refractory cytopenia is frequent and could be the first symptom of onset. Prompt recognition of RAG deficiency in patients with early onset of autoimmune/hyperinflammatory manifestations could contribute to the choice of a timely and specific treatment preventing the onset of other complications.

TCRαβ/CD19 depleted HSCT from an HLA-haploidentical relative to treat children with different non-malignant disorders. Blood Adv 2021; 6:281-292. [PMID: 34592755 PMCID: PMC8753220 DOI: 10.1182/bloodadvances.2021005628] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/02/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Several non-malignant disorders (NMDs), either inherited or acquired, can be cured by allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Between January 2012 and April 2020, 70 consecutive children affected by primary immunodeficiencies, inherited/acquired bone marrow failure syndromes, red blood cell disorders or metabolic diseases, lacking a fully-matched donor or requiring urgent transplantation, underwent TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical HSCT from an HLA-partially matched relative as part of a prospective study (#NCT01810120). Median age at transplant was 3.5 years (range 0.3-16.1); median time from diagnosis to transplant was 10.5 months (2.7 for SCID patients). Primary engraftment was obtained in 51 patients, while 19 and 2 patients experienced either primary or secondary graft failure (GF), the overall incidence of this complication being 30.4%. Most GFs were observed in children with disease at risk for this complication (e.g., aplastic anemia, thalassemia). All but 5 patients experiencing GF were successfully retransplanted. Six patients died of infectious complications (4 had active/recent infections at time of HSCT), the cumulative incidence of transplant-related mortality (TRM) being 8.5%. Cumulative incidence of grade I-II acute GvHD was 14.4% (no patient developed grade III-IV acute GVHD). Only one patient at risk developed mild chronic GvHD. With a median follow-up of 3.5 years, the 5-year probability of overall and disease-free survival was 91.4% and 86.8%, respectively. In conclusion, TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical HSCT from an HLA-partially matched relative is confirmed to be an effective treatment for children with NMDs. Prompt donor availability, low incidence of GvHD and TRM make this strategy an attractive option in NMDs patients.

Abstract
Graft failure requires urgent salvage HSCT, but there is no universally accepted approach for this situation. We investigated T-cell replete haploidentical HSCT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide following serotherapy-based, radiation-free, reduced intensity conditioning in children with non-malignant disorders who had rejected their primary graft. Twelve patients with primary or secondary graft failure received T-cell replete bone marrow grafts from haploidentical donors and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide. The recommended conditioning regimen comprised rituximab 375 mg/m2, alemtuzumab 0.4 mg/kg, fludarabine 150 mg/m2, treosulfan 20-24 g/m2 and cyclophosphamide 29 mg/kg. After a median follow-up of 26 months (7-95), eleven of twelve patients (92%) are alive and well with complete donor chimerism in ten. Neutrophil and platelet engraftment were observed in all patients after a median of 18 days (15-61) and 39 days (15-191), respectively. Acute GVHD grade I was observed in 1/12 patients (8%) and mild chronic GVHD in 1/12 patients (8%). Viral reactivations and disease were frequent complications at 75% and 42%, respectively, but no death from infectious causes occurred. In summary, this retrospective analysis demonstrates that a post-transplantation cyclophosphamide-based HLA-haploidentical salvage HSCT after irradiation-free conditioning results in excellent engraftment and overall survival in children with non-malignant diseases.

Haploidentical Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Using Post-transplant Cyclophosphamide for Children with Non-malignant Diseases. J Clin Immunol 2021; 41:1754-1761. [PMID: 34355352 DOI: 10.1007/s10875-021-01113-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a valuable curative option for children with non-malignant diseases. Haploidentical HCT using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is a readily available option in the absence of an HLA-matched donor. We conducted a retrospective single-center study on the outcome of haploidentical HCT in children with non-malignant diseases. We gathered data from 44 patients underwent HCT in the period 2015 to 2020. The indications for HCT were bone marrow failure, primary immunodeficiency, metabolic disorders, and hemoglobinopathy. Median age at HCT was 4 years (range 0.7-20). The conditioning regimens were myeloablative (n = 17) or reduced intensity (n = 27). After a median follow-up of 20 months (range 4-71), 2-year overall survival was 89% and 2-year GvHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 66%. Incidence of primary graft failure was 13.6%. Cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute and moderate/severe chronic GvHD were 20% and 6.4%, respectively. Younger age at HCT (< 4 years) and primary immunodeficiency were significantly associated with better GRFS (p < 0.05). In conclusion, haploidentical HCT using PTCy is feasible and curative in children with non-malignant diseases lacking an HLA-matched donor. Early diagnosis and referral in addition to timely treatment can further improve outcomes.

Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Rescues Inflammatory Bowel Disease and Dysbiosis of Gut Microbiota in XIAP Deficiency. THE JOURNAL OF ALLERGY AND CLINICAL IMMUNOLOGY-IN PRACTICE 2021; 9:3767-3780. [PMID: 34246792 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaip.2021.05.045] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/05/2021] [Revised: 05/22/2021] [Accepted: 05/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) deficiency is an infrequent inborn error of immunity that is often associated with refractory inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The natural course of XIAP deficiency is typically associated with poor prognosis, and hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the only curative treatment. OBJECTIVE To study (1) the effect of HCT on patients with XIAP deficiency undergoing HCT, (2) the status of XIAP deficiency-associated IBD after HCT, and (3) the gut microbiota of XIAP deficiency-associated IBD before and after HCT. METHODS A nationwide survey of patients with XIAP deficiency was conducted. A spreadsheet questionnaire was collected from the physicians. Feces samples collected from the patients before and after HCT and their healthy family members were analyzed. RESULTS Twenty-six patients with XIAP deficiency underwent HCT by the end of March 2020, and 22 patients (84.6%) survived. All the survivors underwent a fludarabine-based reduced-intensity condition regimen. Acute graft-versus-host disease was observed in 17 patients (65.4%). Nineteen patients experienced refractory IBD before undergoing HCT. IBD improved remarkably after HCT. After HCT, the colonoscopic and pathological symptoms were restored to normal, and the pediatric ulcerative colitis activity index improved significantly. Gut microbiota indicated dysbiosis before HCT; however, it was improved to resemble that of the healthy family members after HCT. CONCLUSIONS This study revealed that HCT has a favorable outcome for XIAP deficiency. HCT rescues gut inflammation and dysbiosis in patients with XIAP deficiency.

How I Treat: Allogeneic HSCT for adults with Inborn Errors of Immunity. Blood 2021; 138:1666-1676. [PMID: 34077952 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2020008187] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/12/2020] [Accepted: 05/10/2021] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Inborn Errors of Immunity (IEI) are rare inherited disorders arising from monogenic germline mutations in genes that regulate the immune system. The majority of IEI are Primary Immunodeficiencies characterised by severe infection often associated with autoimmunity, autoinflammation and/or malignancy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) has been the corrective treatment of choice for many IEI presenting with severe disease in early childhood and experience has made this a successful and comparatively safe treatment in affected children. Early HSCT outcomes in adults were poor, resulting in extremely limited use worldwide. This is changing due to a combination of improved IEI diagnosis to inform patient selection, better understanding of the natural history of specific IEI and improvements in transplant practice. Recently published HSCT outcomes for adults with IEI have been comparable with pediatric data, making HSCT an important option for correction of clinically severe IEI in adulthood. Here we discuss our practice for patient selection, timing of HSCT, donor selection and conditioning, peri- and post HSCT management and our approach to long term follow up. We stress the importance of multidisciplinary involvement in the complex decision-making process that we believe is required for successful outcomes in this rapidly emerging area.

Abstract
Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis (ARO) is a severe inherited bone disease characterized by defective osteoclast resorption or differentiation. Clinical manifestations include dense and brittle bones, anemia and progressive nerve compression, which hamper the quality of patients' lives and cause death in the first 10 years of age. This Review describes the pathogenesis of ARO and highlights the strengths and weaknesses of the current standard of care, namely hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Despite an improvement in the overall survival and outcomes of HSCT, transplant-related morbidity and the pre-existence of neurological symptoms significantly limit the success of HSCT, while the availability of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donors still remains an open issue. Novel therapeutic approaches are needed for ARO patients, especially for those that cannot benefit from HSCT. Here, we review preclinical and proof-of-concept studies, such as gene therapy, systematic administration of deficient protein, in utero HSCT and gene editing. Summary: Autosomal recessive osteopetrosis is a heterogeneous and rare bone disease for which effective treatments are still lacking for many patients. Here, we review the literature on clinical, preclinical and proof-of-concept studies.

Sustained remission after haploidentical bone marrow transplantation in a child with refractory systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis. Pediatr Rheumatol Online J 2021; 19:27.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some patients with systemic juvenile idiopathic arthritis (SJIA) and severe, refractory disease achieved remission through intensive immunosuppressive treatment followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). However, disease relapsed in most cases. More recently selected SJIA patients received allogenic HSCT from a HLA-identical sibling or a HLA matched unrelated donor. While most transplanted patients achieved sustained SJIA remission off-treatment, the procedure-related morbidity was high. CASE REPORT A girl presented SJIA with a severe disease course since the age of 15 months. She was refractory to the combination of methotrexate and steroids to anti-interleukin (IL)-1, then anti-IL-6, tumor necrosis factor alpha inhibitors, and thalidomide. Given the high disease burden and important treatment-related toxicity the indication for a haploidentical HSCT from her mother was validated, as no HLA matched donor was available. The patient received a T replete bone marrow graft at the age of 3.7 years. Conditioning regimen contained Rituximab, Alemtuzumab, Busulfan, and Fludarabine. Cyclophosphamide at D + 3 and + 4 post HSCT was used for graft-versus-host-disease prophylaxis, followed by Cyclosporin A and Mycophenolate Mofetil. Post HSCT complications included severe infections, grade 3 intestinal graft-versus-host-disease, autoimmune thyroiditis, and immune thrombocytopenia. Three years after HSCT, the child is alive and well, notwithstanding persistent hypothyroidy requiring substitution. Immune thrombocytopenia had resolved. Most importantly, SJIA was in complete remission, off immunosuppressive drugs. CONCLUSION Allogenic HSCT may be a therapeutic option, even with a HLA haplo-identical alternative donor, in patients with inflammatory diseases such as SJIA. Despite increased experience with this treatment, the risk of life-threatening complications restrains its indication to selected patients with severe, refractory disease.

Abstract
Preventing chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) remains challenging because the unique cellular and molecular pathways that incite chronic GVHD are poorly understood. One major point of intervention for potential prevention of chronic GVHD occurs at the time of transplantation when acute donor anti-recipient immune responses first set the events in motion that result in chronic GVHD. After transplantation, additional insults causing tissue injury can incite aberrant immune responses and loss of tolerance, further contributing to chronic GVHD. Points of intervention are actively being identified so that chronic GVHD initiation pathways can be targeted without affecting immune function. The major objective in the field is to continue basic studies and to translate what is learned about etiopathology to develop targeted prevention strategies that decrease the risk of morbid chronic GVHD without increasing the risks of cancer relapse or infection. Development of strategies to predict the risk of developing debilitating or deadly chronic GVHD is a high research priority. This working group recommends further interrogation into the mechanisms underpinning chronic GVHD development, and we highlight considerations for future trial design in prevention trials.

Abstract
Malignant infantile osteopetrosis (MIOP) is a rare hereditary disorder characterized by excessive bone overgrowth due to a defect in bone marrow resorption by osteoclasts. In most cases, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) may correct bone metabolism but the rapidly progressing nature of this condition necessitates early diagnosis and prompt treatment to minimize irreversible cranial nerve damage. The management of patients with MIOP presents many unique challenges. In this review, the clinical management of patients with MIOP is discussed, including diagnosis, preparation for HSCT and special transplant considerations, management of unique HSCT complications, and long-term follow-up.
