Blood Res 2024; 59:31. [PMID: 39412690 PMCID: PMC11485279 DOI: 10.1007/s44313-024-00035-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2024] [Accepted: 09/23/2024] [Indexed: 10/19/2024] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE Hepatitis B is a major prognostic factor after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Currently, no consensus exists regarding the management of various scenarios that can lead to reverse seroconversion of the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg-RS). This study focused on HBsAg-RS, which serves as an indicator of active hepatitis, and aimed to obtain exploratory information on the associated patient and treatment factors. METHODS This single-center retrospective study utilized clinical data extracted from the electronic medical records of Seoul St. Mary's Hospital, Korea. Patients who underwent HSCT between January 2013 and December 2018 and tested negative for hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) before undergoing HSCT were included. The associations between HBsAg-RS and demographic information, baseline hepatitis B serological markers, and vaccination status were statistically analyzed. RESULTS This study included 1,344 patients, of whom 83.3% tested positive for the hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb) during HSCT. HBsAg-RS occurred in 2.2% of HBsAb-negative patients and 3.0% of HBsAb-positive patients, indicating no significant difference in reactivation rates according to HBsAb status. However, positivity for hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb) was significantly associated with hepatitis B reactivation (HBsAg-RS rate: 8.0%). The vaccination rates were highest in patients who were negative for both HBsAb and HBcAb and had a transient protective effect. CONCLUSION The sufficient patient population enabled the identification of an association between baseline HBcAb positivity and the development of HBsAg-RS. Further prospective studies are warranted to determine optimal vaccination strategies for preventing HBsAg-RS.

Hepatitis B Reactivation and Vaccination Effectiveness after Solid Organ Transplantation: A Matched Case-Control Study. Vaccines (Basel) 2024; 12:804. [PMID: 39066442 PMCID: PMC11281428 DOI: 10.3390/vaccines12070804] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/21/2024] [Revised: 07/13/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 07/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Solid organ transplant (SOT) recipients are at significant risk of hepatitis B (HB) virus (HBV) reactivation (HBVr). Despite the clinical significance of HBVr after solid organ transplantation, data on the risk factors for HBVr and vaccine effectiveness in SOT recipients with resolved HBV infection are limited. This study evaluated the risk factors for HBVr and the seroconversion rates after HBV vaccination in SOT recipients. Patients who had undergone solid organ transplantation and those with a resolved HBV infection were identified. We matched patients who experienced post-transplantation HBVr with those who did not. We also explored the characteristics and seroconversion rates of HBV-vaccinated patients following transplantation. In total, 1299 SOT recipients were identified as having a resolved HBV infection at the time of transplantation. Thirty-nine patients experienced HBVr. Pre-transplant HB surface antibodies (anti-HBs) positivity and allograft rejection within 3 months after transplantation were independently associated with HBVr. Among the 17 HBV-vaccinated patients, 14 (82.4%) received three or fewer vaccine doses, and 13 (76.5%) had seroconversion with positive anti-HBs results. Pre-transplant anti-HBs(-) status and allograft rejection were risk factors for HBVr in SOT recipients with a resolved HBV infection, and HBV vaccination after transplantation resulted in a high rate of anti-HBs seroconversion. HBV vaccination after transplantation should be considered to reduce the HBVr risk.

Abstract
PURPOSE To guide the vaccination of adults with solid tumors or hematologic malignancies. METHODS A systematic literature review identified systematic reviews, randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and nonrandomized studies on the efficacy and safety of vaccines used by adults with cancer or their household contacts. This review builds on a 2013 guideline by the Infectious Disease Society of America. PubMed and the Cochrane Library were searched from January 1, 2013, to February 16, 2023. ASCO convened an Expert Panel to review the evidence and formulate recommendations. RESULTS A total of 102 publications were included in the systematic review: 24 systematic reviews, 14 RCTs, and 64 nonrandomized studies. The largest body of evidence addressed COVID-19 vaccines. RECOMMENDATIONS The goal of vaccination is to limit the severity of infection and prevent infection where feasible. Optimizing vaccination status should be considered a key element in the care of patients with cancer. This approach includes the documentation of vaccination status at the time of the first patient visit; timely provision of recommended vaccines; and appropriate revaccination after hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation, chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy, or B-cell-depleting therapy. Active interaction and coordination among healthcare providers, including primary care practitioners, pharmacists, and nursing team members, are needed. Vaccination of household contacts will enhance protection for patients with cancer. Some vaccination and revaccination plans for patients with cancer may be affected by the underlying immune status and the anticancer therapy received. As a result, vaccine strategies may differ from the vaccine recommendations for the general healthy adult population vaccine.Additional information is available at www.asco.org/supportive-care-guidelines.

Outcomes of Cessation of Nucleos(t)ide Analog Administration on Hepatitis B Virus Reactivation after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: A Nationwide Retrospective Study. Transplant Cell Ther 2024; 30:330.e1-330.e8. [PMID: 38242442 DOI: 10.1016/j.jtct.2024.01.059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/13/2023] [Revised: 12/18/2023] [Accepted: 01/09/2024] [Indexed: 01/21/2024]
Abstract
Monitoring of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-DNA and HBV-DNA-guided preemptive therapy using nucleos(t)ide analogs (NAs) are recommended to prevent the development of hepatitis due to HBV reactivation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in recipients with resolved HBV infection. However, little is known about the appropriate duration of NA treatment and the effect of NA cessation on the recurrence of HBV reactivation. This study aimed to clarify the consequences of NA cessation in allo-HSCT recipients with resolved HBV infection who experienced HBV reactivation following transplantation. We retrospectively reviewed the clinical records of recipients with resolved HBV infection (hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg]-negative, anti-HBc-positive) before allo-HSCT who had been diagnosed with HBV reactivation (HBsAg-positive and/or HBV-DNA detectable) after allo-HSCT between January 2010 and December 2020. A total of 72 patients from 16 institutions were registered (median age, 60 years; age range, 27 to 73 years; 42 males and 30 females). The day of initial HBV reactivation ranged from day 10 to day 3034 after allo-HSCT (median, 513 days). Anti-HBs were lost in >80% of the patients at the time of HBV reactivation. All 72 patients received preemptive NAs, and no fatal HBV reactivation-related hepatitis was observed. HBV-DNA without hepatitis was continuously detected in 5 patients during the follow-up period. Administration of NAs was discontinued in 24 of 72 patients (33%) by physician decision. Second HBV reactivation occurred in 11 of the 24 patients (46%) in whom administration of NAs was discontinued. The duration of NA treatment did not differ significantly between patients with or without second HBV reactivation. The frequency of further HBV reactivation tended to be lower in patients with an anti-HBs titer of >10 mIU/mL at the time of NA cessation. Multiple reactivations of HBV after NA cessation was common in patients with HBV reactivation who underwent allo-HSCT despite the long duration of NAs. Careful monitoring of HBV-DNA is important even after the discontinuation of NAs in the case with HBV reactivation after allo-HSCT, because multiple reactivations could occur. Active immunization by HB vaccine might be effective for suppressing further HBV reactivation after cessation of NAs.

Adoptive immune transfer from donors offers Anti-HBV protection to HBsAb-negative patients after Allo-HSCT. iScience 2023; 26:106290. [PMID: 36936790 PMCID: PMC10014299 DOI: 10.1016/j.isci.2023.106290] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/20/2022] [Revised: 01/07/2023] [Accepted: 02/22/2023] [Indexed: 03/04/2023] Open
Abstract
Adoptive transfer of hepatitis B virus (HBV) immunity may occur following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Here, we investigated the adoptive transfer of HBV immunity in 112 patients without HBV surface antibody (HBsAb) (HBsAb-) at the time of their first allo-HSCT. After allo-HSCT, HBV-DNA（87.5%） and HBsAg（11.1%%）cleared in HBsAg+ patients. All HBsAg- patients acquired HBsAb immediately. Nevertheless, HBsAb titers subsequently declined, and 39/67 (58.2%) patients lost HBsAb during follow-up. The 5-year overall survival (OS) was better in patients who lost HBsAb. Multivariate analysis showed that the independent risk factors for OS were lack of cytomegalovirus (CMV) clearance, acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), and no HBsAb loss. Overall, adoptive immune transfer offers anti-HBV protection to patients without HBsAb, as they acquire HBsAb and clear HBV-DNA and HBsAg, while HBsAb loss after allo-HSCT predicts better survival.
