Cancer Res Treat 2024; 56:642-651. [PMID: 37997325 PMCID: PMC11016644 DOI: 10.4143/crt.2023.999] [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: 09/01/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 11/25/2023] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to investigate the incidence and risk factors for secondary malignant neoplasms (SMN) in pediatric solid tumors, focusing on the effects of tandem high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT). MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients (aged < 19 years) diagnosed with or treated for pediatric solid tumors between 1994 and 2014 were retrospectively analyzed. The cumulative incidence of SMN was estimated using competing risk methods by considering death as a competing risk. RESULTS A total of 1,435 patients (413 with brain tumors and 1,022 with extracranial solid tumors) were enrolled. Seventy-one patients developed 74 SMNs, with a 10-year and 20-year cumulative incidence of 2.680±0.002% and 10.193±0.024%, respectively. The types of SMN included carcinoma in 28 (37.8%), sarcoma in 24 (32.4%), and hematologic malignancy in 15 (20.3%) cases. Osteosarcoma and thyroid carcinoma were the most frequently diagnosed tumors. Multivariate analysis showed that radiotherapy (RT) > 2, 340 cGy, and tandem HDCT were significant risk factors for SMN development. The SMN types varied according to the primary tumor type; carcinoma was the most frequent SMN in brain tumors and neuroblastoma, whereas hematologic malignancy and sarcomas developed more frequently in patients with sarcoma and retinoblastoma, respectively. CONCLUSION The cumulative incidence of SMN in pediatric patients with solid tumors was considerably high, especially in patients who underwent tandem HDCT or in those who received RT > 2,340 cGy. Therefore, the treatment intensity should be optimized based on individual risk assessment and the long-term follow-up of pediatric cancer survivors.

Long-term effectiveness and safety of high dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation in daily practice in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. J Clin Exp Hematop 2023; 63:99-107. [PMID: 37121716 PMCID: PMC10410619 DOI: 10.3960/jslrt.23001] [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: 01/08/2023] [Revised: 02/08/2023] [Accepted: 02/09/2023] [Indexed: 05/02/2023] Open
Abstract
We retrospectively evaluated long-term outcomes of high dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant (HDC/ASCT) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Between 2004 and 2020, 46 DLBCL patients received HDC/ASCT in our institution, including 12 patients (26.1%), who received as an upfront setting (UFS). At a median follow-up time of 69 months (range, 2-169 months), the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 82.5% (95%CI, 46.1-95.3%) in the UFS, and 57.8% (95%CI, 38.1-73.2%) in the relapsed or refractory (R/R) patients (n=34), respectively. The 5-year PFS rates were 62.3% (95%CI, 34.0-81.3%) in primary resistant (n=13) or early relapsing (within 1 year from the initial diagnosis) patients (n=4), and 53.3% (95%CI, 25.9-74.6%) in those relapsing >1 year after the initial diagnosis (n=17), with no statistically significant difference (p=0.498). In R/R patients, multivariate analysis showed that the remission status before HDC/ASCT was an independent poor prognostic factor for progression-free survival (hazard ratio [HR], 17.0; 95%CI, 3.35-86.6; p=0.000630) and high-risk category in the international prognostic index for OS (HR, 9.39; 95%CI, 1.71-51.6; p=0.0100). The incidence of non-relapse mortality by 5 years, and 10 years were 12.2%, and 15.2%, respectively. Eleven patients (23.9%) developed second malignancies, which was the most frequent late complication after HDC/ASCT, with 5-year, and 10-year cumulative incidence of 16.9%, 22.5%, respectively. In conclusion, HDC/ASCT is effective for chemo-sensitive R/R DLBCL regardless of the timing and lines of therapy. However, careful observation is required, considering the long-term complications such as secondary malignancies.

Abstract
With the advancements in therapeutics for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), the long-term survival of patients with NHL has markedly increased. Second primary malignancies (SPMs) have become an increasingly relevant long-term concern for NHL survivors. The etiology of SPMs is multifactorial and involves multiple steps. Germline alterations, immune dysregulation, and clonal hematopoiesis contribute to the accumulation of intrinsic adverse factors, and external factors such as lifestyle; exposure to infectious factors; and late effects of radiotherapy, chemotherapy, high-dose therapy, and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation further increase SPM risk. Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms (t-MNs) are a devastating complication of cytotoxic chemotherapeutic agents. However, as targeted therapies begin to replace cytotoxic chemotherapy, the incidence of t-MNs is likely to decline, particularly for indolent B-cell NHL.

Twenty years of experience of a tertiary cancer center in total body irradiation with focus on oncological outcome and secondary malignancies. Strahlenther Onkol 2022; 198:547-557. [PMID: 35318487 PMCID: PMC9165288 DOI: 10.1007/s00066-022-01914-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 02/20/2022] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
Purpose Total body irradiation (TBI) is a common part of the myelo- and immuno-ablative conditioning regimen prior to an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Due to concerns regarding acute and long-term complications, there is currently a decline in otherwise successfully established TBI-based conditioning regimens. Here we present an analysis of patient and treatment data with focus on survival and long-term toxicity. Methods Patients with hematologic diseases who received TBI as part of their conditioning regimen prior to allo-HSCT at Frankfurt University Hospital between 1997 and 2015 were identified and retrospectively analyzed. Results In all, 285 patients with a median age of 45 years were identified. Median radiotherapy dose applied was 10.5 Gy. Overall survival at 1, 2, 5, and 10 years was 72.6, 64.6, 54.4, and 51.6%, respectively. Median follow-up of patients alive was 102 months. The cumulative incidence of secondary malignancies was 12.3% (n = 35), with hematologic malignancies and skin cancer predominating. A TBI dose ≥ 8 Gy resulted in significantly improved event-free (p = 0.030) and overall survival (p = 0.025), whereas a total dose ≤ 8 Gy and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosis were associated with significantly increased rates of secondary malignancies (p = 0.003, p = 0.048) in univariate analysis. No significant correlation was observed between impaired renal or pulmonary function and TBI dose. Conclusion TBI remains an effective and well-established treatment, associated with distinct late-toxicity. However, in the present study we cannot confirm a dose–response relationship in intermediate dose ranges. Survival, occurrence of secondary malignancies, and late toxicities appear to be subject to substantial confounding in this context.

Abstract
Transplant centers have historically been reluctant to proceed with kidney transplantation in individuals with plasma cell dyscrasias (PCDs) due to concern for high rates of PCD recurrence and PCD-related mortality. As novel therapies for PCDs have improved hematologic outcomes, strategies to optimize kidney transplantation in individuals with PCD-mediated kidney disease are needed. In this single-center case series we discuss our protocol for the transplantation of individuals with ESKD attributed to PCD as well as the hematologic and allograft outcomes of 12 kidney transplant recipients with ESKD attributed to PCD. Median follow-up time after kidney transplantation was 44 months (IQR 36, 84). All patients had a functioning allograft 1 year after kidney transplantation. 9/12 patients were alive and had a functioning allograft 5 years after kidney transplantation. Five patients experienced relapse of PCD (of whom three responded well to subsequent therapies) and four patients developed secondary malignancies, including three patients with urologic malignancies. This case series demonstrates that patients with kidney disease attributed to PCD have favorable outcomes with kidney transplantation. Transplant evaluation in patients with PCDs should involve a multidisciplinary team of transplant nephrologists and oncologists to select appropriate candidates. Providers should consider screening for urologic malignancies pre- and post-transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Patients submitted to haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are at increased risk of late complications, such as second neoplasm (SN). The incidence and risk factors of SN in patients receiving HSCT at a single centre were analysed. PATIENTS AND METHODS The follow-up of adult patients who received a first HSCT (autologous [auto-HSCT] or allogeneic [allo-HSCT]) between January 2000 and December 2015 was reviewed. We collected their demographic characteristics, the primary disease and type of HSCT, and analysed the cumulative incidence of SN and their risk factors. RESULTS Of 699 transplanted patients (auto-HSCT, n=451; allo-HSCT, n=248), 42 (6%) developed SN (17 haematological and 25 solid), 31 post-auto-HSCT and 11 post-allo-HSCT. Haematologic SN were more frequent after auto-HSCT than after allo-HSCT. The median time between HSCT and SN was 4.09 years [range 0.07-13.15], with no differences between auto-HSCT and allo-HSCT. The cumulative incidence of SN was 5% (95% CI 3-6) at 5 years, 7% (95% CI 5-10) at 10 years and 11% (95% CI 8-15) at 15 years, without differences according to the type of HSCT. Only the age over 40 years correlated with an increased risk of SN. CONCLUSIONS In this series, the incidence of post-HSCT SN was similar to that previously described. Patients submitted to an auto-HSCT showed a higher frequency of haematologic SN. A higher incidence of SN was detected in patients older than 40 at the time of HSCT.

Abstract
The impact of age at diagnosis on outcomes of patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) undergoing autologous hematopoietic transplantation (auto-HCT) is unclear. We retrospectively evaluated the impact of age on outcomes of 310 consecutive patients with relapsed/refractory HL who underwent auto-HCT between January 1996 and December 2010 with carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan conditioning therapy. Patients were stratified into ≤ 55 and >55-year-age groups based on age at diagnosis. At a median follow-up of 80 (range, 1 to 180) months, progression-free survival was similar between both age groups. However, age older than 55 years at diagnosis was associated with significantly poor overall survival with a hazard ratio [HR] of 2.3 (P = .003) from higher rate of second malignancies (HR, 3.8; P = .015) compared with patients 55 years or younger. In conclusion age > 55 years at diagnosis increases risk of second malignancies after auto-HCT.

Incidence and severity of crucial late effects after allogeneic HSCT for malignancy under the age of 3 years: TBI is what really matters. Bone Marrow Transplant 2016; 51:1482-1489. [PMID: 27348540 DOI: 10.1038/bmt.2016.139] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2015] [Revised: 03/21/2016] [Accepted: 04/10/2016] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
Younger children are considered to be more vulnerable to late effects (LE), which prompted us to study LE in patients after haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for a haematological malignancy before the age of 3. In this multicentre EBMT study, cumulative incidence (CI) and severity of endocrine LE, central nervous system complications and secondary malignancies at 5, 10, 15 and 20 years of follow-up were assessed. Risk factors (RF) like gender, diagnosis, age at and year of HSCT, TBI- or chemo-conditioning and GVHD were analysed. CI of any LE was 0.30, 0.52, 0.66 and 0.72 at 5, 10, 15 and 20 years after HSCT, respectively. In 25% of the patients, LE were severe at a median follow-up of 10.4 years. In multivariate analysis, only TBI was a RF for having any LE and for thyroid dysfunction and growth disturbance. Female gender was a RF for delayed pubertal development. Some more insight could be gained by descriptive analysis regarding the role of TBI and GVHD on the severity of LE. Although only five selected LE have been studied and median follow-up is relatively short, the incidence and severity of these LE are considerable but not different from what has been found in older children and TBI is the main RF.

Abstract
This national population-based study aimed to investigate conditional survival and standardized mortality ratios (SMR) after high-dose therapy with autologous stem-cell transplantation (HDT-ASCT) for non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), and to analyse cause of death, relapses and second malignancies. All patients ≥18 years treated with HDT-ASCT for NHL in Norway between 1987 and 2008 were included (n = 578). Information from the Cause of Death Registry and Cancer Registry of Norway were linked with clinical data. The 5-, 10- and 20-year overall survival was 61% (95% confidence interval [CI] 56-64%), 52% (95%CI 48-56%) and 45% (95%CI 40-50%), respectively. The 5-year survival conditional on having survived 2, 5 and 10 years after HDT-ASCT was 81%, 86% and 93%. SMRs were 12·3 (95%CI 11·0-13·9), 4·9 (95%CI 4·1-5·9), 2·4 (95%CI 1·8-3·2) and 1·0 (95%CI 0·6-1·8) for the entire cohort and for patients having survived 2, 5 and 10 years after HDT-ASCT respectively. Of the 281 deaths observed, 77% were relapse-related. Treatment-related mortality was 3·6%. The 10-year cumulative incidence of second malignancies was 7·9% and standardized incidence ratio was 2·0 (95%CI 1·5-2·6). NHL patients treated with HDT-ASCT were at increased risk of second cancer and premature death. The mortality was still elevated at 5 years, but after 10 years mortality equalled that of the general population.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HCT) recipients have a substantial risk of developing secondary solid cancers, particularly beyond 5 years after HCT and without reaching a plateau overtime. A working group was established through the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research and the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation with the goal to facilitate implementation of cancer screening appropriate to HCT recipients. The working group reviewed guidelines and methods for cancer screening applicable to the general population and reviewed the incidence and risk factors for secondary cancers after HCT. A consensus approach was used to establish recommendations for individual secondary cancers. The most common sites include oral cavity, skin, breast and thyroid. Risks of cancers are increased after HCT compared with the general population in skin, thyroid, oral cavity, esophagus, liver, nervous system, bone and connective tissues. Myeloablative TBI, young age at HCT, chronic GVHD and prolonged immunosuppressive treatment beyond 24 months were well-documented risk factors for many types of secondary cancers. All HCT recipients should be advised of the risks of secondary cancers annually and encouraged to undergo recommended screening based on their predisposition. Here we propose guidelines to help clinicians in providing screening and preventive care for secondary cancers among HCT recipients.

Abstract
We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials comparing autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) with other treatment modalities to analyze the risk for various secondary malignancies (SMs). Relative risks (RR) with 95% confidence intervals were estimated and pooled. Our search yielded 36 trials. The median follow-up was 55 (range 12-144) months. Overall, the RR for developing SMs was 1.23 ((0.97-1.55), I(2)=4%, 9870 patients). Subgroup analysis of trials assessing TBI-containing preparative regimens and of patients with baseline lymphoproliferative diseases, showed there was a higher risk for SMs in patients given autografts (RR=1.61 (1.05-2.48), I(2)=14%, 2218 patients and RR=1.62 (1.12-2.33), I(2)=22%, 3343 patients, respectively). Among all patients, there was a higher rate of myelodysplastic syndrome MDS/AML in patients given HCT compared with other treatments (RR=1.71 (1.18-2.48), I(2)=0%, 8778 patients). The risk of secondary solid malignancies was comparable in the short term between patients given HCT and patients given other treatments (RR=0.95 (0.67-1.32), I(2)=0%, 5925 patients). We conclude that overall the risk of secondary MDS/AML is higher in patients given autologous HCT compared with other treatments. In the subgroup of patients given a TBI-based regimen and in those with a baseline lymphoproliferative disease, there was a higher risk of overall SMs.

Abstract
Background: As more patients are treated by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), development of secondary malignancy (SM) becomes an increasingly common issue in long-term survivors. Methods: We conducted a nationwide population-based study of the Taiwanese population to analyse patients who received HSCT between January 1997 and December 2010. Standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) were used to compare the risk of SM in HSCT patients and the general population. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of SM. Results: Patients receiving HSCT had a significantly greater risk of developing SM (SIR 2.00; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.45–2.69; P<0.001). Specifically, the incidence increased for cancers of the oral cavity (SIR 14.18) and oesophagus (SIR 14.75) after allogeneic HSCT. Multivariate analysis revealed an increased SIR for cancer in patients who received the immunosuppressant azathioprine. The risk of SM also increased with greater cumulative doses of azathioprine. Conclusions: This study demonstrates an increased incidence of SM in Taiwanese patients who received allogeneic HSCT, especially for cancers of the oral cavity and oesophagus. This finding is different from results in populations of Western countries. Physicians should be cautious about azathioprine use for graft-vs-host disease after HSCT.

Abstract
We assessed overall and cause-specific mortality and risk factors for late mortality in a nation-wide population-based cohort of 4547 adult cancer patients who survived 2 or more years after receiving an autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in Australia between 1992 and 2005. Deaths after HSCT were identified from the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplant Recipient Registry and through data linkage with the National Death Index. Overall, the survival probability was 56% at 10 years from HSCT, ranging from 34% for patients with multiple myeloma to 90% for patients with testicular cancer. Mortality rates moved closer to rates observed in the age- and sex-matched Australian general population over time but remained significantly increased 11 or more years from HSCT (standardized mortality ratio, 5.9). Although the proportion of deaths from nonrelapse causes increased over time, relapse remained the most frequent cause of death for all diagnoses, 10 or more years after autologous HSCT. Our findings show that prevention of disease recurrence remains 1 of the greatest challenges for autologous HSCT recipients, while the increasing rates of nonrelapse deaths due to the emergence of second cancers, circulatory diseases, and respiratory diseases highlight the long-term health issues faced by adult survivors of autologous HSCT.

Abstract
Population-based evidence on second cancer risk following autologous haematopoietic SCT (HCT) is lacking. We quantified second cancer risk for a national, population-based cohort of adult Australians receiving autologous HCT for cancer and notified to the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplant Recipient Registry 1992-2007 (n=7765). Cancer diagnoses and deaths were ascertained by linkage with the Australian Cancer Database and National Death Index. Standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) were calculated and Cox regression models were used to estimate within-cohort risk factors treating death as a competing risk. During a median 2.5 years follow-up, second cancer risk was modestly increased compared with the general population (SIR 1.4, 95% confidence interval 1.2-1.6); significantly elevated risk was also observed for AML/myelodysplastic syndrome (SIR=20.6), melanoma (SIR=2.6) and non-Hodgkin lymphoma (SIR=3.3). Recipients at elevated risk of any second cancer included males, and those transplanted at a younger age, in an earlier HCT era, or for lymphoma or testicular cancer. Male sex, older age (>45 years) and history of relapse after HCT predicted melanoma risk. Transplantation for Hodgkin lymphoma and older age were associated with lung cancer risk. Second malignancies are an important late effect and these results inform and emphasize the need for cancer surveillance in autologous HCT survivors.

Abstract
Second malignancies after autologous haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (AHSCT) are well-known long-term complications. We present a case of a 24-year-old male with relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) with no involvement of his bone marrow who underwent AHSCT. Four years later he developed mild anaemia and a computed tomography showed an enlarged spleen. As his anaemia worsened, a bone marrow was performed. There was no evidence of HL but intense reticular and collagen fibrosis with hypocellularity was detected. Cytogenetic studies could not obtain cells in metaphase in two occasions. PCR for V617F JAK2 mutation was positive. Until now, with 7 years of follow up from his diagnosis of myelofibrosis with myeloid metaplasia (MMM) he did not require specific treatment besides from red cell transfusions when anaemia worsened during a pneumocistis carinii infection. We present this case, because MMM is a infrequent second neoplasm after AHSCT. Revising the literature we could not find any case like this reported previously.

Abstract
Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the development and progression of pulmonary hypertension (PH) remains imperative if we are to successfully improve the quality of life and life span of patients with the disease. A whole plethora of mechanisms are associated with the development and progression of PH. Such complexity makes it difficult to isolate one particular pathway to target clinically. Changes in intracellular free calcium concentration, the most common intracellular second messenger, can have significant impact in defining the pathogenic mechanisms leading to its development and persistence. Signaling pathways leading to the elevation of [Ca(2+)](cyt) contribute to pulmonary vasoconstriction, excessive proliferation of smooth muscle cells and ultimately pulmonary vascular remodeling. This current review serves to summarize the some of the most recent advances in the regulation of calcium during pulmonary hypertension.

Abstract
The treatment of myeloma has undergone extraordinary improvements in the past half century. These advances have been accompanied by a concern for secondary primary malignancies (SPMs). It has been known for decades that extended therapy with alkylating chemotherapy agents, such as melphalan, carries an increased risk of therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome and/or acute myeloid leukemia (t-MDS/AML), with a cumulative risk as high as 10–15%. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell support became widely accepted for myeloma in the 1990s. Despite the use of high doses of melphalan, the risk of t-MDS/AML with this procedure is estimated to be less than 5%, with much of this risk attributable to pretransplant therapy. Recently, lenalidomide has come under scrutiny for its possible association with SPMs. It is too soon to declare a causal relationship at this time, but there appears to be an increased number of SPMs in reports from several studies using lenalidomide maintenance. Current studies should be amended and future studies planned to better define the risk of SPMs and the risk factors and mechanisms for its development. Patients should be educated regarding this potential concern but the current use of lenalidomide should not generally be altered until further data are available.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lenalidomide is an IMiDs® oral immunomodulatory compound developed for the treatment of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) and myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Long-term continuous treatment with lenalidomide beyond first response may be important to optimize responses and delay relapse. AREAS COVERED This review summarizes the lenalidomide mechanism of action, pharmacodynamics, key clinical studies with a focus on safety and post-marketing surveillance data. The necessity for early adverse-event management, including dose modifications for neutropenia and thrombocytopenia, and venous thromboembolism prophylaxis, where applicable, in order to maintain patients on treatment and achieve optimal efficacy, is discussed. Secondary primary malignancies in MM and progression to acute myeloid leukemia in MDS patients in the context of lenalidomide treatment are also discussed. Finally, as lenalidomide is renally excreted, the requirement for dose adjustment according to creatinine clearance is discussed. EXPERT OPINION Lenalidomide is highly effective and generally well tolerated. Most adverse events occur early during the course of treatment and are manageable. Lenalidomide is not associated with peripheral neuropathy and has a lack of cumulative toxicity, making it an effective treatment option for long-term use in the management of MM and low/intermediate-1-risk MDS, specifically with chromosome 5q deletion with or without other cytogenetic abnormalities.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GM) is one of the most aggressive primary brain tumors, and has a poor prognosis despite intensive treatment. GM is also the most malignant astrocytoma, with histopathological features that include cellular polymorphism, rapid mitotic activity, microvascular proliferation, and necrosis. The causes of GM remain obscure, but several reports have shown associations between GM and genetic alterations and radiation exposure. Furthermore, high-dose chemotherapy/radiotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation is increasingly being used to treat patients with leukemia, and patients who undergo stem cell transplantation have a higher risk of solid tumor cancer development later in life. Based on these associations, we discuss GM development in a patient who underwent chemoradiotherapy conditioning prior to stem cell transplantation.

Abstract
Salvage chemotherapy followed by high-dose autologous stem cell transplantation (HD-ASCT) is the standard of care for patients who have relapsed or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). Few trials have had long-term follow-up post-HD-ASCT in the ABVD (adriamycin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) era of treatment. We reviewed 95 consecutive patients who received HD-ASCT for relapsed or refractory HL following ABVD failure between 1990 and 2006 at the University of Rochester. Median follow-up for survivors was 8.2 years. All patients received HD-ASCT following upfront ABVD (or equivalent) failure. At 5 years, overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were 54% and 37%, respectively. In total, 54 patients have died; 37 of these patients died directly of HL. Notably, there were 19 deaths >3 years post-HD-ASCT and 13 of these late deaths are directly attributable to HL. Furthermore, there were 51 documented relapses, 9 of which occurred >3 years post-HD-ASCT. In contrast to other studies, we did not observe a plateau in EFS following transplantation. Patients appear to be at continuous risk of recurrence beyond 3 years after HD-ASCT. Our results emphasize the importance of long-term follow-up for both toxicity and recurrence, and have important implications in defining success of posttransplantation maintenance strategies.

Abstract
The role of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the treatment of follicular lymphoma is still being defined in the era of antibody therapy. Here we report the long-term 12-year clinical outcomes of patients treated with autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) for follicular non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) in first remission. Between 1988 and 1993, advanced-stage follicular NHL patients in need of initial therapy were enrolled in 2 consecutive prospective treatment trials of either standard-dose CHOP induction (83 patients) or high-dose CHOP plus granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) (20 patients). Patients who achieved an adequate remission with induction therapy underwent conditioning with cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (TBI) followed by ABMT in first remission using bone marrow (BM) purged in vitro with anti-B cell monoclonal antibodies and rabbit complement (96 patients). At 12-year follow-up, 61% of the patients are alive and 43% remain in continuing complete remission. The only predictors of decreased progression-free survival proved to be histologic BM involvement at time of harvest (hazard ratio [HR] 2.27, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.3-3.9, P<.004) and PCR detectable disease in the BM product after purging (HR 4.18, 95% CI 1.99-8.8, P=.0002). No significant predictors of overall survival were identified. These results at 12-year follow-up suggest that a subset of follicular lymphoma patients can experience prolonged survival with ABMT in first remission.

Abstract
Data on the incidence and causes of late (>100 d) non-relapse mortality (NRM) in autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) recipients is limited. We have analysed NRM in a cohort of 1,482 adult patients who received ASCT in 1990-2003 in six Finnish transplant centres. The most common diagnoses included non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) (n = 542), multiple myeloma (MM) (n = 528), breast cancer (n = 132); Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) (n = 86) and chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (CLL) (n = 63). Until September 2005, 646 patients (44%) have died. Late NRM was observed in 68 patients (4.6% of ASCT recipients; 11% of all deaths). There were 38 males and 30 females with a median age of 58 yr (20-69) at the time of ASCT. The median time to NRM was 27 months from ASCT (3-112). The risk of NRM was highest in patients with CLL (9.5%) and those with HL (8.1%) followed by MM and NHL (4.9% and 4.8%, respectively). The risk of late NRM was comparable in patients who received total body irradiation (TBI) and those who received chemotherapy-only regimens (6.7% vs. 4.3%). Another malignancy was the most common cause of late NRM (24 patients, 35% of late NRM). Twelve patients (0.8% of ASCT recipients) have died due to secondary haematological malignancy. Altogether 22 patients (32% of late NRM) died from infectious causes. Malignancies and late infections are important causes of NRM after ASCT. These facts point out the importance of prolonged follow-up in ASCT recipients.

Abstract
Recent improved treatments for lymphoid malignancies produce more long-term survivors, yet increase the risk for secondary malignancies. Therapy-related myelodysplasia and acute myeloid leukemia are well described, but secondary chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) has only rarely been reported. We report three patients with CML diagnosed 8, 10 and 2.5 years following Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia therapy, respectively. BCR-ABL transcripts were not detected after completion of primary therapy in two cases. All three patients received imatinib therapy, with one patient subsequently undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. All three patients have ongoing favorable responses to CML therapy.

Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the incidence of second malignancies among patients with Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) treated with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) compared with patients receiving conventional therapy alone and to identify potential risk factors for their occurrence. PATIENTS AND METHODS We analyzed data on 1,732 consecutive patients with HL treated at the British Columbia Cancer Agency from 1976 to 2001, including 202 patients undergoing AHSCT. The median follow-up duration was 9.8 years for the whole cohort, 9.7 years for those patients treated with conventional therapy, and 7.8 years from AHSCT. RESULTS The cumulative incidence of developing any second malignancy 15 years after therapy for HL was 9% (risk ratio = 3.5; P < .001); however, the incidence did not differ between those patients receiving conventional therapy alone compared with those undergoing AHSCT (10% and 8%, respectively; P = .48). In multivariate analysis, the only factor significantly associated with an increased risk of developing any second neoplasm or solid tumor was age > or = 35 years (P < .0001). An increased risk of therapy-induced acute myeloid leukemia and therapy-induced myelodysplastic syndrome was seen for patients aged > or = 35 years (P = .03) and stage III/IV (P = .04). CONCLUSION Patients with HL are at increased risk of developing a second neoplasm. However, those patients undergoing AHSCT do not seem to be at greater risk compared with those patients receiving conventional therapy alone, at least during the first decade after therapy.

Abstract
To evaluate the incidence, risk factors and prognosis for solid tumors after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in Japan, 809 patients who had received HSCT between 1981 and 2000 were retrospectively analyzed. In all, 19 newly diagnosed secondary cancers were observed. The risk for cancer development was 2.8 times as high as that for expected cases. The cumulative incidence ratios at 5 and 10 years were 1.9 and 4.2%, respectively. The risk was significantly elevated for buccal cavity cancer (standard incidental ratio (SIR), 44.42: 95% confidence interval (CI) 17.86-91.51), esophageal cancer (SIR, 22.36: 95% CI 6.09-57.25), and cervical cancer (SIR, 8.58: 95% CI 1.04-31.01). Of 15 patients who developed solid cancers following allografting, 12 had chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and all 10 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the buccal cavity or esophagus had chronic GVHD. On multivariate analysis, extensive chronic GVHD and age over 45 years at the time of transplantation were associated with a higher risk for solid cancers. In all, 17 patients received therapy for secondary cancers, nine of whom are still alive and the 5-year probability of survival from the diagnosis is 42.8%. Our data suggest that early detection of secondary cancers is very important in prolonging overall survival.

Abstract
Treatment-related myelodysplastic syndrome/acute myeloid leukemia (t-MDS/t-AML) is a devastating complication of treatment for childhood cancer. However, the major cause of premature death of children treated for cancer remains their primary cancer. The understanding of the presentation, incidence, predisposing risk factors and pathobiology of t-MDS/t-AML is increasing. This increased understanding has not yet been translated into improved outcomes of therapy for t-MDS/t-AML. However, newer approaches are under study.

Abstract
PURPOSE Although the risk of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) has been well-described following autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT), the risk of solid tumors has been poorly characterized. We report the incidence and outcome of solid tumors at 10-year follow-up in a large cohort of uniformly treated patients who underwent ABMT for non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1982 and 1997, 605 patients underwent ABMT for B-cell NHL, with uniform conditioning with cyclophosphamide and total-body irradiation followed by reinfusion of autologous bone marrow purged with anti-B-cell monoclonal antibodies. Current information on relapse of disease and second malignancies was obtained via an institutional review board-approved questionnaire sent to the referring oncologists. RESULTS Forty-two solid tumors, six non-MDS hematologic malignancies, 39 nonmelanoma skin cancers, and 68 cases of MDS/acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) were observed at a median follow-up of 9.5 years. A cumulative incidence model using death as a competing risk found that the 10-year incidence of second malignancy is 21%, with 10.0% non-MDS malignancies. The projected incidence of all malignancies at 15 years is 29%. The principal risk factor for second malignancy is increased age at ABMT (P = .0002). In the entire cohort, 9.6% of patients have died of second malignancy. CONCLUSION Lengthy follow-up demonstrates a significant incidence of second malignancies after ABMT for NHL. Although the incidence of MDS/AML starts to plateau, the incidence of solid tumors continues to rise. Second malignancies are responsible for a significant fraction of overall mortality following ABMT.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been used for many years to treat various malignant and nonmalignant hematologic conditions. However, the high-dose conditioning regimen can lead to major organ dysfunction, life-threatening infection and bleeding. In the allogeneic setting, graft-versus-host disease may also develop, making post-transplant management complex. Once a transplant recipient is discharged from hospital and returns to his or her local community, the primary care physician can play an important role in care. Recipients of stem cell transplants may be severely immunocompromised for many months after transplantation, especially if they are still taking immunosuppressive drugs. Furthermore, endocrine and metabolic deficiencies can develop, and transplant survivors are at risk of a second malignant disease. This review is intended as a basic overview of allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplantation with a special focus on long-term follow-up issues relevant to primary care providers.
