Abstract
Poor prognostic factors, such as transfusion dependency and chromosomal risk, need to be considered in the indication of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for patients harboring myelodysplastic syndromes with less than 5% marrow blasts (MDS-Lo). We analyzed the post-transplant outcomes of 1229 MDS-Lo patients who received myeloablative (MAC)(n = 651), reduced-intensity (RIC)(n = 397), and non-myeloablative conditioning (NMAC) regimens (n = 181). The multivariate analysis revealed that the RIC group had better chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)- and relapse-free survival (CRFS) (P = 0.021), and GVHD- and relapse-free survival (GRFS) than the MAC group (P = 0.001), while no significant differences were observed between the NMAC and MAC groups. In the subgroup analysis, the MAC group has better overall survival (P = 0.008) than the RIC group among patients with an HCT-comorbidity index (HCT-CI) score of 0, while the RIC group had better overall survival (P = 0.029) than the MAC group among those with an HCT-CI score ≥3. According to the type of conditioning regimen, total body irradiation 12 Gy-based MAC regimen showed better OS and CRFS than the other MAC regimen, and comparable outcomes to the RIC regimen. In conclusion, the RIC and NMAC regimens are promising options for MDS-Lo patients in addition to the MAC regimen.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE We explored whether a patient's psychosocial background before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) could predict the occurrence of psychiatric symptoms during treatment and after hospital discharge. METHOD Logistic regression analysis was performed using INTERMED, a scale that comprehensively evaluates psychological factors such as psychiatric history, current mental status, and coping skills, and social factors such as social participation status, relationships with others, and living environment, which were used as independent variables. The Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale was used to measure depression, while the Profile of Mood States was used to measure anxiety and other symptoms. Both measures were used as dependent variables and were administered upon clean room admission, during clean room stay, at clean room discharge, and at 3, 6, and 12 months after hospital discharge. RESULTS Participants included 70 patients (45 males and 25 females, mean age 53.3 ± 12.3 years). Thirty-eight patients participated in the program for the entire period, up to 12 months after hospital discharge. The total score on the Japanese version of the INTERMED and psychological factor scores assessed at baseline were significant predictors of depressed mood on discharge; however, there were no significant predictors of scores on the Profile of Mood States. CONCLUSIONS A comprehensive pretransplant evaluation of psychosocial background can help predict the appearance of psychiatric symptoms after allo-HSCT. In patients who are expected to develop psychiatric symptoms after allo-HSCT, it is important to consider early intervention by a specialist and close monitoring by a medical team.

Abstract
The present study compared lower-dose melphalan (80 mg/m2, FM80) and higher-dose melphalan (140 mg/m2, FM140) when administering reduced-intensity conditioning with fludarabine in adult patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). We retrospectively analyzed nationwide registry data (2006 to 2019) and compared transplant outcomes between the 2 groups. Ninety-two patients (median age, 61 [interquartile range, 56 to 65] years) were assigned to the FM80 and FM140 groups by propensity score matching. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate in the FM140 group (63.9%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 52.9% to 73.0%) was significantly higher than that in the FM80 group (54.2%; 95% CI, 37.1% to 52.1%) (P = .038). The FM140 group had a nonsignificantly (P = .095) lower 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (15.5%; 95% CI, 8.9% to 23.8% versus 26.0%; 95% CI, 17.3% to 35.5%). The 3-year cumulative incidences of nonrelapse mortality were 22.3% (95% CI, 14.1% to 31.8%) and 23.7% (95% CI, 15.4% to 33.2%) in the FM80 and FM140 groups, respectively (P = .49). The beneficial effect of FM140 was more evident in patients with a poor cytogenetic risk. Our findings suggest the superiority of FM140 in patients with MDS undergoing allo-HSCT, especially in high-risk patients.

Abstract
This study aimed to address the prognostic impact of center experience based on the data of 7821 adults with acute myeloid leukemia who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from 2010 to 2019 in Japan, where medical care was provided within a uniform healthcare system. Center experience was defined based on the number of allogeneic HCTs performed for any indication during the study period, by which centers were divided into low-, intermediate-, and high-volume centers. After adjusting for known confounding factors, the risk of overall mortality was lowest for the high-volume centers and highest for the low-volume centers, with the difference between the center categories attributed primarily to the risk of relapse. Patients transplanted at high-volume centers had higher risks of acute and chronic graft-versus-host diseases but without an increased risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM). These findings reveal the presence of a center effect in allogeneic HCT conducted during the past decade in Japan, highlighting the difference in relapse based on center experience. The weaker effect on NRM compared with that on relapse suggests that the transplantation care quality is becoming equalized across the country.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Higher rate of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) remains yet to be resolved in umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). Considering that UCBT has some unique features compared with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation from other graft sources, a UCBT-specific NRM risk assessment system is required. Thus, in this study, we sought to develop a UCBT-specific NRM Risk Assessment (CoBRA) score. Using a nationwide registry database, we retrospectively analyzed 4437 recipients who had received their first single-unit UCBT. Using the backward elimination method, we constructed the CoBRA score in a training cohort (n = 2687), which consisted of recipients age ≥55 years (score 2), hematopoietic cell transplantation-specific comorbidity index ≥3 (score 2), male recipient, graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis other than tacrolimus in combination with methotrexate, performance status (PS) 2 to 4, HLA allele mismatch ≥ 2, refined Disease Risk Index high risk, myeloablative conditioning, and CD34+ cell doses < 0.82 × 105/kg (score 1 in each). The recipients were categorized into 3 groups: low (0-4 points), intermediate (5-7 points), and high (8-11 points) groups according to the CoBRA score. In the validation cohort (n = 1750), the cumulative incidence of NRM at 2 years was 14.9%, 25.5%, and 47.1% (P < .001), and 2-year overall survival (OS) was 74.2%, 52.7%, and 26.3% (P < .001) in the low, intermediate, and high groups, respectively. In summary, the CoBRA score could predict the NRM risk as well as OS after UCBT. Further external validation will be needed to confirm the significance of the CoBRA score.

Abstract
In patients undergoing haematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT), the intestinal microbiota plays an important role in prognosis, transplant outcome, and complications such as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). Our prior research revealed that patients undergoing HSCT substantially differed from healthy controls. In this retrospective study, we showed that administering Clostridium butyricum MIYAIRI 588 (CBM588) as a live biotherapeutic agent is associated with maintaining intestinal microbiota in the early post-HSCT period. Alpha diversity, which reflects species richness, declined considerably in patients who did not receive CBM588, whereas it remained consistent in those who received CBM588. In addition, β-diversity analysis revealed that CBM588 did not alter the gut microbiota structure at 7-21 days post-HSCT. Patients who developed GVHD showed structural changes in their microbiota from the pre-transplant period, which was noticeable on day 14 before developing GVHD. Enterococcus was significantly prevalent in patients with GVHD after HSCT, and the population of Bacteroides was maintained from the pre-HSCT period through to the post-HSCT period. Patients who received CBM588 exhibited a contrasting trend, with lower relative abundances of both genera Enterococcus and Bacteroides. These results suggest that preoperative treatment with CBM588 could potentially be beneficial in maintaining intestinal microbiota balance.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the last option for long-term survival for patients with chemotherapy-refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). By using the Japanese nationwide registry data, we analyzed 6927 adults with AML having undergone first allogeneic HCT while not in complete remission (CR) between 2001 and 2020. The 5-year overall survival (OS), relapse, and non-relapse mortality (NRM) rates were 23%, 53%, and 27%, respectively. Multivariate analysis identified several factors predictive of OS mainly through their effects on relapse (cytogenetics, percentage of blasts in the peripheral blood, and transplantation year) and NRM (age, sex, and performance status). As regards disease status, relapsed disease was associated with a higher risk of overall mortality than primary induction failure (PIF). The shorter duration of the first CR increased the risks of relapse and overall mortality for the relapsed group, and the longer time from diagnosis to transplantation did so for the PIF group. Our experience compiled over the past two decades demonstrated that >20% of patients still enjoy long-term survival with allogeneic HCT performed during non-CR and identified those less likely to benefit from allogeneic HCT. Future efforts are needed to reduce the risk of posttransplant relapse in these patients.

Abstract
Various complications can influence hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) outcomes. Renal complications can occur during the early to late phases of HCT along with various factors. However, studies focusing on fatal renal complications (FRCs) are scarce. Herein, we analyzed 36,596 first allogeneic HCT recipients retrospectively. Overall, 782 patients died of FRCs at a median of 108 (range, 0-3,440) days after HCT. The cumulative incidence of FRCs was 1.7% and 2.2% at one and five years, respectively. FRCs were associated with older age, male sex, non-complete remission (non-CR), lower performance status (PS), and HCT comorbidity index (HCT-CI) associated with renal comorbidity in multivariate analysis. The risk factors within 100 days included older age, multiple myeloma, PS, and HCT-CI comorbidities (psychiatric disturbance, hepatic disease, obesity, and renal disease). Older age and male sex were risk factors between 100 days and one year. After one year, HCT-CI was associated with the presence of diabetes and prior solid tumor; total body irradiation was identified as a risk factor. Non-CR was a common risk factor in all three phases. Furthermore, acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease, reactivation of cytomegalovirus, and relapse of underlying disease also affected FRCs. Systematic follow-up may be necessary based on the patients' risk factors and post-HCT events.

Abstract
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), negatively impacting quality of life (QoL) and increasing the risk of death. Complexity in cGVHD diagnosis and treatment causes significant variations in cGVHD management strategies across medical centers and physicians despite the existence of published guidelines. Thus, we hypothesized that center volume is associated with cGVHD incidence and outcomes after cGVHD develops. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of center volume on the incidence of cGVHD in patients who underwent HSCT and outcomes in patients with cGVHD. Our retrospective study included 28,786 patients who underwent their first HSCT (overall cohort) and 7664 who developed cGVHD (cGVHD cohort). We categorized institutions into quartiles (very low, low, high, and very high) using the number of HSCTs performed during the study period. We assessed cGVHD incidence in overall cohort and overall survival (OS) in cGVHD cohort. The very high-volume group showed significantly higher cGVHD incidence (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.30 to 1.46) compared to the very low-volume group. However, the cGVHD incidence was similar among very low-, low- and high-volume groups. Low, high, and very high-volume groups showed significantly higher OS with adjusted HRs of 0.83 (95% CI: 0.73 to 0.94), 0.69 (95% CI: 0.61 to 0.79), and 0.68 (95% CI: 0.60 to 0.76), respectively, compared with the very low-volume group. In conclusion, we revealed a higher incidence of cGVHD in the very high-volume group and a poor survival outcome in the very low-volume group in patients with cGVHD.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a currative treatment modality for diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) because of the intrinsic graft-versus-lymphoma effect. However, limited information is available regarding which patients with relapsed or refractory DLBCL are likely to benefit from allo-HSCT. We retrospectively analyzed data from 1268 DLBCL patients who received allo-HSCT. The overall survival and progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 30.3% and 21.6% at 3 years, respectively. Multivariate analysis revealed that stable or progressive disease at transplantation, male patient, poorer performance status at transplantation, and shorter intervals from previous transplantation were associated independently with a lower PFS. Four prognostic factors were used to construct a prognostic index for PFS, predicting 3-year PFS of 55.4%, 43.7%, 20.4% and 6.6%, respectively. The prognostic model predicted relapse rates following allo-HSCT accordingly (P < 0.0001), whereas did not predict transplantation-related mortality (P = 0.249). The prognostic index can identify a subgroup of DLBCL patients who benefit from allo-HSCT and it is worthwhile to evaluate whether this model is also applicable to patients undergoing allo-HSCT in cases of relapse after chimeric antigen receptor engineered T-cell therapy, although the application of allo-HSCT has been declining with the increase of novel immunotherapies.

Abstract
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) is a valuable alternative donor source for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Various conditioning regimens and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimens aimed at improving the outcomes of umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) have been explored; however, the differences in their effects remain unclear. This study was conducted to elucidate the differences in the effects of conditioning and GVHD prophylaxis regimens on UCBT outcomes by disease type in a nationwide, retrospective study. We retrospectively analyzed the effects of conditioning and GVHD prophylaxis regimens on the outcomes of UCBT performed with cyclophosphamide (Cy)/total body irradiation (TBI)-based regimens in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML; n = 1126), acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL; n = 620), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS; n = 170), and lymphoma (n = 128). Multivariate analysis for overall survival (OS) demonstrated the benefit of adding high-dose cytarabine to the Cy/TBI regimen for the AML group (relative risk [RR], .76; P = .003) and lymphoma group (RR, .54; P = .02), but not for the ALL and MDS groups. In the ALL group, adding etoposide to the Cy/TBI regimen was associated with a lower OS (RR, 1.45; P = .03). For GVHD prophylaxis, a tacrolimus/methotrexate regimen was associated with a lower OS compared with a cyclosporine/methotrexate regimen in the AML group (RR, 1.26; P = .01); this difference was not observed in the other groups. These differences in OS according to the conditioning and GVHD prophylaxis regimen were attributable mainly to differences in relapse risk. Our data show that the effects of conditioning regimens and GVHD prophylaxis on UCBT outcomes differed according to disease type. UCBT outcomes could be improved by selecting optimal conditioning regimens and GVHD prophylaxis for each disease type.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the Japanese population may have less genetic diversity than other ethnic groups, treatment outcomes may be affected when allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is performed in other races. However, evidence explaining the effect of racial differences is limited. METHODS We used the Japanese National Database to examine the outcomes of first allogeneic bone marrow transplantations (BMTs) performed between Japanese and non-Japanese patients from 1996 to 2021. We performed propensity score matching using sex, age group, underlying disease group, HLA mismatch, conditioning regimen intensity, and BMT implementation age to select Japanese-to-Japanese BMT patients as the controls. RESULTS The numbers of non-Japanese-to-Japanese and Japanese-to-non-Japanese BMT cases included in the analysis were 48 and 75, respectively, and the following outcomes were compared: overall survival, non-relapse mortality, acute graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) ≥ grade II, chronic GVHD, and engraftment of neutrophils and platelets. Most parameters did not differ when comparing BMTs according to ethnicity; only platelet engraftment was delayed in Japanese-to-non-Japanese BMT but not in non-Japanese-to-Japanese BMT. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggested that BMT performed in Japanese and non-Japanese patients has little effect on treatment outcomes. The results of this study may be useful for donor selection in Japan, where internationalization has progressed in recent years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) is an appropriate option when an HLA-matched related or unrelated donor is not available. Haplo-HCT using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is being increasingly performed worldwide due to its effective suppression of GVHD and its safety. METHODS We conducted a large nationwide cohort study to retrospectively analyze 366 patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing haplo-HCT with PTCy between 2010 and 2019 and to identify prognostic factors. RESULTS A multivariate Cox analysis revealed that an older recipient age (≥60 years), a male donor to a male recipient, a cytomegalovirus IgG-negative donor to a cytomegalovirus IgG-positive recipient, a poor cytogenetic risk, a noncomplete remission status at the time of transplantation, and a history of HCT were independently associated with worse overall survival (OS). Based on each hazard ratio, these factors were scored (1-2 points) and stratified by their total score into three groups: favorable (0-1 points), intermediate (2-3 points), and poor (4 points or more) groups, and 2-year OS rates were 79.9%, 49.2%, and 25.1%, respectively (P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS The present study revealed significant prognostic factors in haplo-HCT with PTCy, and a scoring system based on these factors may be used to predict outcomes.

Abstract
Fludarabine/busulfan and fludarabine/melphalan are viable options as conditioning regimens. However, the optimal fludarabine-based conditioning in cord blood transplantation (CBT) remains unclear. Therefore, this retrospective, registry-based study aimed to analyze the impact of five fludarabine-containing conditioning regimens on 1395 adult patients (median age, 61 years) with acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and chronic myeloid leukemia who underwent their first CBT. Treatment outcomes of fludarabine combined with melphalan (100-140 mg/m2 ) and low-dose total body irradiation (TBI; FM140T); melphalan (80-99 mg/m2 ) and TBI (FM80T); busulfan (12.8 mg/kg) and melphalan (FB4M); busulfan (12.8 mg/kg) and TBI (FB4T); and busulfan (6.4 mg/kg) and TBI (FB2T) were compared. The 3-year survival rate was 67%, 53%, 44%, 36%, and 39%, respectively (p < .0001). The FM140T survival rate was the most favorable after adjusting for confounders, and the hazard ratios (vs. FM140T) for overall mortality were as follows: FM80T, 1.6 (95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-2.2); FB4M, 2.1 (95% CI, 1.6-2.8); FB4T, 2.7 (95% CI, 2.0-3.7); and FB2T, 2.2 (95% CI, 1.6-3.1). The better survival observed with FM140T, regardless of the disease, disease risk, age, or transplant year, was attributed to the lower relapse rate and lower non-relapse mortality (NRM) associated with fewer infectious deaths. Conversely, FB4T was associated with a higher relapse rate and higher NRM. The findings indicate that the outcomes of CBT in myeloid malignancies were highly dependent on both the alkylating agent and its dose in combination with fludarabine. Therefore, compared with fludarabine/busulfan-based conditioning, FM140T may be the preferred regimen.

Abstract
We retrospectively evaluated the effect of 17 individual comorbidities, defined by the hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT)-specific comorbidity index, on non-relapse mortality (NRM) and overall survival (OS) in 9531 patients aged between 16 and 70 years who underwent their first allogeneic HCT from 8/8 and 7/8 allele-matched unrelated donors (8/8 and 7/8 MUDs) or single-unit unrelated cord blood (UCB) between 2011 and 2020 using data from a Japanese registry database. In the multivariate analysis, infection (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 1.62, 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.33-1.99 for 8/8 and 7/8 MUDs; adjusted HR, 1.33, 95%CI, 1.12-1.58 for UCB) and moderate/severe hepatic comorbidity (adjusted HR, 1.57, 95%CI, 1.04-2.38 for 8/8 and 7/8 MUDs; adjusted HR, 1.53, 95%CI, 1.09-2.15 for UCB) had a significant impact on NRM in both donor groups. Cardiac comorbidity (adjusted HR, 1.40, 95%CI, 1.08-1.80), mild hepatic comorbidity (adjusted HR, 1.22, 95%CI, 1.01-1.48), rheumatologic comorbidity (adjusted HR, 1.67, 95%CI, 1.11-2.51), renal comorbidity (adjusted HR, 2.44, 95%CI, 1.46-4.09), and severe pulmonary comorbidity (adjusted HR, 1.40, 95%CI, 1.11-1.77) were significantly associated with an increased risk of NRM but only in UCB recipients. Renal comorbidity had the strongest impact on poor OS in both donor groups (adjusted HR, 1.73, 95%CI, 1.10-2.72 for 8/8 and 7/8 MUDs; adjusted HR, 2.24, 95%CI, 1.54-3.24 for UCB). Therefore, unrelated donor selection should be taken into consideration along with the presence of specific comorbidities, such as cardiac, rheumatologic, renal, mild hepatic, and severe pulmonary comorbidities.

Abstract
In HLA haploidentical stem cell transplantation, patients and donors usually share one HLA haplotype and have one different HLA haplotype (hetero-to-hetero). However, there are rare cases of transplantation from HLA homozygous donors to heterozygous recipients (homo-to-hetero), resulting in mismatches only in the graft-versus-host direction. We previously reported that homo-to-hetero transplants have a lower survival rate in a mouse model than hetero-to-hetero transplants due to stronger graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) but inferior graft-versus-leukemia effect. To examine whether homo-to-hetero transplant effects also occur in humans, we retrospectively compared the results of 59 homo-to-hetero and 4,539 hetero-to-hetero cases in the Japanese transplant registry data. The results showed no statistical difference between the homo-to-hetero and hetero-to-hetero groups in the cumulative incidences of neutrophil engraftment (83.1% vs 89.0%), acute GVHD II-IV (36.8% vs 38.8%), III-IV (16.8% vs 17.4%), chronic GVHD (32.7% vs 30.7%), relapse (52.9% vs 49.0%), and non-relapse mortality (31.6% vs 28.2%). In contrast, overall survival was significantly lower in the homo-to-hetero group than in the hetero-to-hetero group (12.6% vs 26.2%, p = 0.0308). The inferior effect of homo-to-hetero transplantation on overall survival remained significant in multivariate analyses.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the most common indication for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). The increased availability of alternative donor sources has broadened donor types for older patients without HLA-matched sibling donors (MSD). It is uncertain if an MSD should be the first option for allogeneic HCT in patients with AML over 50 years of age. The objective of this study was to compare survival and other post-transplant outcomes between MSDs, 8/8 allele-matched unrelated donors (MUDs), 7/8 allele-MUDs, unrelated cord blood (UCB), and haploidentical donors for patients with AML over 50 years of age. We conducted a retrospective study to compare outcomes in 5704 patients with AML over 50 years of age and receiving allogeneic HCT between 2013 and 2021, using either MSD, 8/8 allele-MUD, 7/8 allele-MUD, UCB, or haploidentical donors in Japan. Complete remission (CR) and nonremission at HCT were analyzed separately for all analyses. In total, 3041 patients were CR, and 2663 patients were nonremission at the time of HCT. In multivariate analysis, donor type did not determine overall survival, irrespective of disease status at HCT. Leukemia-free survival (LFS) was significantly better for 8/8 allele-MUD (hazard ratio [HR], 0.77; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.64 to 0.93; P = .005) and UCB (HR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.65 to 0.88; P < .001), but not for 7/8 allele-MUD (HR, 0.97; 95% CI, 0.79 to 1.19; P = .794), and haploidentical donor (HR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.70 to 1.05; P = .146) compared to the MSD group in nonremission status. However, donor type did not determine LFS among CR status. Relapse rates were significantly lower for 8/8 allele-MUD and UCB, whereas nonrelapse mortality was higher for UCB compared to the MSD group among both CR and nonremission status. Our registry-based study demonstrated that MSDs do not lead to superior survival compared to alternative donors for patients with AML over 50 years of age. Furthermore, 8/8 allele-MUDs and UCB provide better LFS compared with MSDs during nonremission status. Therefore, MSD is not necessarily the best donor option for allogeneic HCT in this population.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) remains the only potential curative therapeutic modality for advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Within HCT, the advancement of cord blood transplantation (CBT) procedures has resulted in a drastic expansion of CBT as a donor source for MDS. However, data comparing matched sibling donors (MSDs) HCT with CBT for advanced MDS, which was defined as refractory anemia with an excess of blasts (RAEB)-1 and RAEB-2 according to the World Health Organization classification at the time of HCT, have not been explored. We retrospectively compared survival and other posttransplant outcomes in 999 adult patients with advanced MDS after receiving allogeneic HCT in Japan between 2011 and 2020, using either MSD (n = 331) or single-unit unrelated cord blood (UCB) (n = 668). In the multivariate analysis, there were no significant differences in overall survival (hazard ratio [HR], 1.10; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.90-1.34; P = 0.347), disease-free survival (HR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.84-1.23; P = 0.845), relapse (HR, 0.88; 95% CI, 0.68-1.15; P = 0.370), or non-relapse mortality (HR, 1.15; 95% CI, 0.87-1.50; P = 0.310) between MSD recipients and UCB recipients. UCB was significantly associated with lower neutrophil (HR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.24-0.33; P < 0.001) and lower platelet (HR, 0.29; 95% CI, 0.23-0.36; P < 0.001) recovery compared to MSD. UCB was significantly associated with a lower incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (HR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.44-0.75; P < 0.001) and extensive chronic GVHD (HR, 0.46; 95% CI, 0.32-0.67; P < 0.001) compared to MSD. Similar results were observed after adjusting for differences between MSD and UCB recipients by propensity score matching analysis. Our study demonstrated that single CBT and MSD HCT had similar survival outcomes for adult patients with advanced MDS despite the lower hematopoietic recovery in CBT recipients and higher chronic GVHD in MSD recipients.

Abstract
Aplastic anemia patients who are refractory to immunosuppressive therapy or with very low neutrophil counts require allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) has been a treatment option when an HLA-matched donor is not available, and HSCT from a related haploidentical donor using post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis (PTCy-haplo) recently became another important approach. We aimed to compare the outcomes of PTCy-haplo and UCBT in adult patients with aplastic anemia to identify more effective and safer approaches for alternative donor transplantation. Data in a nationwide registry were analyzed retrospectively to assess the outcomes of aplastic anemia patients age ≥16 years who underwent PTCy-haplo or UCBT as their first HSCT between 2016 and 2020. The primary endpoint was 1-year overall survival (OS) after HSCT. Secondary endpoints included 1-year failure-free survival (FFS), neutrophil and platelet engraftment, and acute and chronic GVHD. Eighty-three patients who underwent PTCy-haplo (n = 24) or UCBT (n = 59) were eligible. The 1-year OS rate was 78.5% (95% confidence interval [CI], 55.7% to 90.5%) in the PTCy-haplo group and 77.5% (95% CI, 64.5% to 86.3%; P = .895) in the UCBT group. The 1-year FFS rate was 78.7% (95% CI, 56.1% to 90.6%) in the PTCy-haplo group and 62.2% (95% CI, 48.5% to 73.3%; P = .212) in the UCBT group. Among patients age <40 years, the PTCy-haplo group had a significantly higher FFS rate (92.9% [95% CI, 59.1% to 99.0%]) vs 63.9% [95% CI, 43.2% to 78.7%]; P = .047). Neutrophil engraftment and platelet engraftment rates were significantly higher in the PTCy-haplo group compared with the UCBT group: 95.8% (95% CI, 73.9% to 99.4%) vs 78.0% (95% CI, 65.1% to 86.6%, P < .001) and 83.3% (95% CI, 61.5% to 93.4%) vs 72.9% (95% CI, 59.6% to 82.4%; P = .025). No significant difference was observed in the cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute GVHD and chronic GVHD between the 2 groups. Aplastic anemia patients achieved significantly higher neutrophil and platelet engraftment rates with PTCy-haplo than with UCBT. OS and the incidences of acute and chronic GVHD were similar between the 2 groups. In patients age <40 years, the FFS rate was higher in the PTCy-haplo group. PTCy-haplo is promising for alternative donor transplantation in adult patients with aplastic anemia.

Abstract
Venetoclax (VEN) combination regimens are now recognized as effective against acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the prognosis of patients who do not attain a composite complete response (cCR) is extremely poor, and clinical determinants of response remain unknown. Medical records of 57 patients with AML treated with VEN combination regimens from April 2021 to March 2022 at six institutions were retrospectively analyzed. The primary endpoint was cCR, complete remission, or complete remission with incomplete hematologic recovery after one cycle of VEN combination regimen. Five patients had previously relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT). The treatment regimen was azacitidine-VEN in 48 patients (84%) and low-dose cytarabine-VEN in 9 patients (16%). Thirty patients (53%) achieved cCR after one cycle of a VEN regimen. In univariate analysis, the number of prior chemotherapy regimens, post-allo-SCT relapse, and cytogenetic risk category were associated with a decreased likelihood of achieving cCR. In multivariate analysis, second-line chemotherapy remained a significant predictor of response. Patients who received anthracycline immediately before the VEN regimen had a higher cCR rate than patients who did not receive anthracycline. In this study, prior chemotherapy/allo-SCT and cytogenetic risk were associated with VEN treatment outcomes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from female donors to male recipients (female-to-male allo-HCT) is a well-established risk factor for a greater incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). In contrast, unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) is associated with a lower incidence of chronic GVHD. In this study, survival outcomes were compared between the UCBT and unrelated female-to-male bone marrow transplantation (UFMBMT) groups. METHODS We evaluated male allo-HCT recipients who underwent UCBT or UFMBMT between 2012 and 2020 in Japan. There were 2517 cases in the UCBT group, 456 cases in the HLA-matched UFMBMT group and 457 cases in the HLA-mismatched UFMBMT group. RESULTS HLA-mismatched UFMBMT was significantly associated with a decreased risk of relapse (hazard ratio [HR] 0.74; 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.57-0.98], P = 0.033) and HLA-matched UFMBMT had the tendency of a decreased risk of relapse (HR 0.78; 95% CI 0.61-1.01, P = 0.059). HLA-matched UFMBMT was also associated with favorable OS (HR 0.82; 95% CI 0.69-0.97, P = 0.021). The relationship between the donor sources and relapse was similarly observed in the lymphoid malignancy cohort. CONCLUSIONS The difference of graft-versus leukemia effect by H-Y immunity according to donor sources might contribute to the difference in clinical impact. It might be desirable for patients who could sufficiently wait for donor coordination to select BMT rather than UCBT, even if only unrelated female donors are available for male recipients.

Abstract
In Japan, only single-unit cord blood transplantations (CBTs) are typically performed, and their number has increased over the last 23 years, with ongoing improvement in results. In most cases, CBTs with multiple HLA mismatches are used, owing to a low HLA barrier, and lower engraftment rate is a problem that must be overcome. Here, as part of an effort to improve guidelines for the selection and processing of CB units for transplantation, we sought to assess the present status of CBT in Japan and to elucidate factors contributing to the favorable outcomes, focusing in particular on selection by cell components of CB unit and HLA allele matching. We conducted a nationwide study analyzing 13,443 patients who underwent first CBT between in Japan between December 1997 and December 2019 using multivariate regression analysis. Both patient- and transplantation-related variables, such as age and Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation Comorbidity Index, as well as selected CB unit characteristics, were included in the analysis. The interaction analysis elucidated that CB unit selection favoring higher counts of CD34+ cells and granulocyte macrophage colony-forming units (GM-CFU)/kg, but not of total nucleated cells, contributed to improved engraftment after transplantation. Moreover, a higher CD34+ cell dose was associated with improved overall survival (OS). Distinctive HLA allele matching was observed. A 0 or 1 HLA allele mismatch between patient and donor had favorable engraftment and carried significantly lower risks of acute GVHD and chronic GVHD but had a significantly higher leukemia relapse rate, compared with a 3-HLA allele mismatch. HLA-DRB1 mismatches were associated with reduced risk of leukemia relapse. Notably, the number of HLA allele mismatches had no incremental effect on engraftment, acute and chronic GVHD, or relapse incidence. As a result, 5-year overall survival did not differ significantly among patients receiving CB units with 0 to 7 HLA allele mismatches. The main points of CB unit selection are as follows. First, selection according to a higher number of CD34+ cells/kg and then of CFU-GM/kg is recommended to obtain favorable engraftment. A unit with .5 × 105 CD34+ cells/kg is minimally acceptable. For units with a CD34+ cell dose of .5 to 1.0 × 105 cells/kg, applying the parameter of ≥20 to 50 × 103 GM-CFU/kg (66.5% of transplanted CB units in this cohort) is associated with a neutrophil engraftment rate of approximately 90%. A unit with ≥1.0 × 105 CD34+ cells/kg can achieve a ≥90% mean neutrophil engraftment rate. Subsequently, HLA allele matching of HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 at the 2-field level should be searched for units with 0 or 1 HLA allele mismatch in the host-versus-graft direction for favorable engraftment. Units with 2 to 6 HLA allele mismatches are acceptable in patients age ≥15 years and units with 2 to 4 HLA allele mismatches are acceptable in patients age ≤14 years. Units with HLA-DRB1 and/or -B allele mismatch(es) might not be preferable owing to an increased GVHD risk. Our analysis demonstrates that single-unit CBT with the selection of adequate CD34+/kg and GM-CFU/kg and HLA allele matching showed favorable outcomes in both pediatric and adult patients.

Abstract
Therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (t-AML) is a therapeutic challenge as a late complication of chemotherapy (CHT) and/or radiotherapy (RT) for primary malignancy. Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) presents itself as a curative approach. To establish the optimal allo-HSCT strategy for t-AML, we evaluated the relationship between characteristics of primary malignancy and allo-HSCT outcomes. Patients with t-AML or de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who underwent first allo-HSCT in Japan from 2011 to 2018 were identified using a nationwide database. The detailed background of t-AML was obtained by additional questionnaires. Multivariate analysis and propensity score matching (PSM) analysis were performed to detect the prognostic factors associated with t-AML and compare outcomes with de novo AML. We analyzed 285 t-AML and 6761 de novo AML patients. In patients with t-AML, receiving both CHT and RT for primary malignancy was an independent poor-risk factor for relapse and overall survival (OS) (hazard ratio (HR) 1.62; p = 0.029 and HR 1.65; p = 0.009, reference: CHT alone group), whereas other primary malignancy-related factors had no effect on the outcome. Compared to the CHT alone group, complex karyotypes were significantly increased in the CHT + RT group (86.1% vs. 57.5%, p = 0.007). In the PSM cohort, t-AML patients with prior CHT and RT had significantly worse 3-year OS than those with de novo AML (25.2% and 42.7%; p = 0.009). Our results suggest that prior CHT and RT for primary malignancy may be associated with increased relapse and worse OS of allo-HSCT in t-AML.

Abstract
This study aimed to validate the utility of the transplant conditioning intensity (TCI) score in 1714 patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing allogeneic bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (BMT/PBSCT) and assess its applicability to 753 patients with AML undergoing umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) both during first complete remission. Patients classified into a high TCI group accounted for 63% and 56% in the BMT/PBSCT and UCBT cohorts, respectively. In the BMT/PBSCT cohort, the risk of relapse was lower in patients in the high versus intermediate TCI group (P = 0.002), although non-relapse mortality (NRM) did not differ among the three TCI groups. In the UCBT cohort, both relapse and NRM did not differ among the TCI groups. Increasing cutoff points for intermediate and high TCI categories significantly improved the ability to predict relapse and NRM in the BMT/PBSCT cohort (P = 0.030 and 0.006, respectively), and relapse but not NRM in the UCBT cohort (P = 0.005 and 0.364, respectively). These findings highlight the difference in the threshold level of the TCI score for outcome discrimination between European and Japanese cohorts. The TCI scheme appears less effective for UCBT than for BMT/PBSCT.

Abstract
Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens have long-term outcomes that are generally comparable with those of myeloablative conditioning (MAC) because of a lower risk of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) but a higher risk of relapse. However, it is unclear how we should select the conditioning intensity in individual cases. We propose the risk assessment for the intensity of conditioning regimen in elderly patients (RICE) score. We retrospectively analyzed 6147 recipients aged 50 to 69 years using a Japanese registry database. Based on the interaction analyses, advanced age (≥60 years), hematopoietic cell transplantation-specific comorbidity index (≥2), and umbilical cord blood were used to design a scoring system to predict the difference in an individual patient's risk of NRM between MAC and RIC: the RICE score, which is the sum of the 3 factors. Zero or 1 implies low RICE score and 2 or 3, high RICE score. In multivariate analyses, RIC was significantly associated with a decreased risk of NRM in patients with a high RICE score (training cohort: hazard ratio [HR], 0.73; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.60-0.90; P = .003; validation cohort: HR, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.43-0.77; P < .001). In contrast, we found no significant differences in NRM between MAC and RIC in patients with a low RICE score (training cohort: HR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.85-1.15; P = .860; validation cohort: HR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.66-1.01; P = .061). In summary, a new and simple scoring system, the RICE score, appears to be useful for personalizing the conditioning intensity and could improve transplant outcomes in older patients.

Abstract
The most important prognostic factor for Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph+ALL) is minimal residual disease (MRD). Previous studies have reported copy number variants of genes such as IKZF1, CDKN2A/2B, and PAX5. These gene mutations can be analyzed using multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA), which is less costly and easier to perform than large-scale gene mutation analyses. In this study, we performed copy number variant analysis of leukemia cells at the first onset of Ph+ALL in a case series of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) using the MLPA method. We analyzed how it influenced allo-HSCT prognosis together with MRD information. CDKN2A/2B copy number variations significantly increased the rate of post-transplant recurrence (P=0.025) and significantly reduced disease-free survival (P=0.015). Additionally, patients with IKZF1 deletions had a significantly higher post-transplant recurrence rate (P=0.042). Although they were positive for pre-transplant MRD, no relapse was observed in patients with wild-type copy number variations in IKZF1 or CDKN2A/2B. CDKN2A/2B copy number variation is a crucial factor that can be confirmed at initial onset as a post-transplant prognostic factor of Ph+ALL.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donors (MSDs) are the preferred choice for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). However, as myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) is most frequently diagnosed in the elderly, MSDs are also likely to be of advanced age. It is unclear whether an MSD should be considered the primary choice for allogeneic HCT in elderly patients with MDS. We retrospectively compared survival and other outcomes in 1787 patients with MDS over 50 years of age and receiving allogeneic HCT between 2014 and 2020, using either MSD (n = 214), 8/8 allele-matched unrelated donor (MUD) (n = 562), 7/8 allele-MUD (n = 334), or unrelated cord blood (UCB) (n = 677) in Japan. In multivariate analysis, compared to MSD transplants, the risk of relapse was significantly lower following 8/8MUD transplants (hazard ratio [HR], 0.74; P = 0.047), whereas non-relapse mortality was significantly higher following UCB transplants (HR, 1.43; P = 0.041). However, donor type did not determine overall survival, disease-free survival, or graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)-free, relapse-free survival, but chronic GVHD-free, relapse-free survival was better after UCB (HR, 0.80; P = 0.025) and 8/8MUD (HR, 0.81; P = 0.032) compared to MSD transplants. Our study demonstrated that MSDs are not superior to alternative HCT methods, such as 8/8MUD, 7/8MUD, or UCB, in this population.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus reactivation (CMVR) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a frequent complication related to survival outcomes; however, its impact on relapse remains unclear, especially in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). In this nationwide retrospective study, we included patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and ALL in the first or second complete remission who underwent their first HCT using a pre-emptive strategy for CMVR. Because 90% of cases with CMVR had occurred by day 64 and 90% of cases with grades 2 to 4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) had occurred by day 58, a landmark point was set at day 65. In landmark analyses, 3793 patients with AML and 2213 patients with ALL who survived without relapse for at least 65 days were analyzed. Multivariate analyses showed that CMVR was associated with a lower incidence of relapse in both AML (hazard ratio [HR], 0.81; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.69-0.95; P = .009) and ALL (HR, 0.81; 95% CI, 0.66-0.99; P = .045). These findings were confirmed when CMVR was used as the time-dependent covariate. Moreover, our study suggests that the protective effect of CMVR on relapse was independent of acute GVHD. A post-hoc subgroup analysis of combined AML and ALL showed that CMVR had a mild antileukemia effect without effect modification, in contrast to the impact of CMVR on NRM. Our findings may provide important implications for strategies used for CMV prophylaxis after HCT.

Abstract
Non-infectious pulmonary complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remain fatal. In particular, information regarding late-onset interstitial lung disease predominantly including organizing pneumonia and interstitial pneumonia (IP) is limited. A retrospective nationwide survey was conducted using data collected from the Japanese transplant outcome registry database from 2005 to 2010. This study focused on patients (n = 73) with IP diagnosed after day 90 post-HSCT. A total of 69 (94.5%) patients were treated with systemic steroids, and 34 (46.6%) experienced improvement. The presence of chronic graft-versus-host disease at the onset of IP was significantly associated with non-improvement of symptoms (odds ratio [OR] 0.35). At the time of last follow-up (median, 1471 days), 26 patients were alive. Of the 47 deaths, 32 (68%) were due to IP. The 3-year overall survival (OS) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) rates were 38.8% and 51.8%, respectively. In the multivariate analysis, the predictive factors for OS were comorbidities at IP onset (hazard ratio [HR]: 2.19) and performance status (PS) score of 2-4 (HR 2.77). Furthermore, cytomegalovirus reactivation requiring early intervention (HR 2.04), PS score of 2-4 (HR 2.63), and comorbidities at IP onset (HR 2.90) were also significantly associated with increased risk of NRM.

Abstract
To evaluate the prognostic impact of complex karyotype (CK) and/or monosomal karyotype (MK) in combination with various clinical factors on allogeneic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) outcomes of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), we analysed the registry database of adult AML patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT between 2000 and 2019 in Japan. Among 16 094 patients, those with poor cytogenetic risk (N = 3345) showed poor overall survival (OS) after HSCT (25.3% at 5 years). Multivariate analyses revealed that CK and/or MK (hazard ratio [HR], 1.31 for CK without MK; 1.27 for MK without CK; and 1.73 for both), age at HSCT ≥50 years (HR, 1.58), male sex (HR, 1.40), performance status ≥2 (HR, 1.89), HCT-CI score ≥3 (HR, 1.23), non-remission status at HSCT (HR, 2.49), and time from diagnosis to HSCT ≥3 months (HR, 1.24) independently reduced post-HSCT OS among patients with poor cytogenetic risk AML. A risk scoring system based on the multivariate analysis successfully stratified patients into five distinct groups for OS. This study confirms the negative effects of CK and MK on post-HSCT outcomes, and offers a powerful risk scoring system for predicting prognoses after HSCT among AML patients with unfavourable cytogenetics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Forecasting acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is highly challenging with conventional statistical techniques due to complex parameters and their interactions. The primary object of this study was to establish a convolutional neural network (CNN)-based prediction model for aGVHD. METHOD We analyzed adult patients who underwent allogeneic HSCT between 2008 and 2018, using the Japanese nationwide registry database. The CNN algorithm, equipped with a natural language processing technique and an interpretable explanation algorithm, was applied to develop and validate prediction models. RESULTS Here, we evaluate 18,763 patients between 16 and 80 years of age (median, 50 years). In total, grade II-IV and grade III-IV aGVHD is observed among 42.0% and 15.6%. The CNN-based model eventually allows us to calculate a prediction score of aGVHD for an individual case, which is validated to distinguish the high-risk group of aGVHD in the test cohort: cumulative incidence of grade III-IV aGVHD at Day 100 after HSCT is 28.8% for patients assigned to a high-risk group by the CNN model, compared to 8.4% among low-risk patients (hazard ratio, 4.02; 95% confidence interval, 2.70-5.97; p < 0.01), suggesting high generalizability. Furthermore, our CNN-based model succeeds in visualizing the learning process. Moreover, contributions of pre-transplant parameters other than HLA information to the risk of aGVHD are determined. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that CNN-based prediction provides a faithful prediction model for aGVHD, and can serve as a valuable tool for decision-making in clinical practice.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation between female donors and male recipients (female-to-male allo-HCT) is a well-established risk factor for inferior survival outcomes due to a higher incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). However, a clinical significance of anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) in the female-to-male allo-HCT has not been elucidated. In this study, we retrospectively evaluated male patients who underwent allo-HCT between 2012 and 2019 in Japan. In the female-to-male allo-HCT cohort (n = 828), the use of ATG was not associated with a decreased risk of GVHD (HR of acute GVHD 0.691 [95% CI: 0.461-1.04], P = 0.074; HR of chronic GVHD 1.06 [95% CI: 0.738-1.52], P = 0.76), but was associated with favorable overall survival (OS) and a decreased risk of non-relapse mortality (NRM) (HR of OS 0.603 [95% CI: 0.400-0.909], P = 0.016; HR of NRM 0.506 [95% CI: 0.300-0.856], P = 0.011). The use of ATG in female-to-male allo-HCT resulted in survival outcomes that were almost equivalent to those in the male-to-male allo-HCT group. Therefore, GVHD prophylaxis with ATG might overcome the inferiority of survival outcomes in female-to-male allo-HCT.

Abstract
Treatment-free remission (TFR) is a new goal for patients with chronic myeloid leukemia in chronic phase (CML-CP) with a sustained deep molecular response (DMR) to treatment with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). However, optimal conditions for successful TFR in patients treated with second-generation (2G)-TKIs are not fully defined. In this D-FREE study, treatment discontinuation was attempted in newly diagnosed CML-CP patients treated with the 2G-TKI dasatinib who achieved BCR-ABL1 levels of ≤ 0.0032% (MR4.5) on the international scale (BCR-ABL1IS) and maintained these levels for exactly 1 year. Of the 173 patients who received dasatinib induction therapy for up to 2 years, 123 completed and 60 (48.8%) reached MR 4.5. Among the first 21 patients who maintained MR4.5 for 1 year and discontinued dasatinib, 17 experienced molecular relapse defined as loss of major molecular response (BCR-ABL1IS > 0.1%) confirmed once, or loss of MR4 (BCR-ABL1IS > 0.01%) confirmed on 2 consecutive assessments. The estimated molecular relapse-free survival rate was 16.7% at 12 months. This study was prematurely terminated according to the protocol's safety monitoring criteria. The conclusion was that sustained DMR for just 1 year is insufficient for TFR in CML-CP patients receiving dasatinib for less than a total of 3 years of treatment.

Abstract
Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for some patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) who are refractory to chemotherapy. Cord blood transplantation (CBT) is a reasonable option in such cases because of its rapid availability. Recently, a growing number of human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical related donor HSCTs (haplo-HSCTs) have been performed, although its effectiveness remains undetermined. Using the Japanese nationwide transplantation registry data, we identified 2438 patients aged ≥16 years who received CBT or haplo-HSCT as their first transplant for non-remission AML between January 2008 and December 2018. After 2:1 propensity score matching, 918 patients in the CBT group and 459 patients in the haplo-HSCT group were selected. In this matched cohort, no significant difference in overall survival (OS) was observed between the CBT and haplo-HSCT groups (hazard ratio [HR] of haplo-HSCT to CBT 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.89-1.16). Similarly, no significant difference in the cumulative incidence of relapse (HR 1.09, 95% CI 0.93-1.28) or non-relapse mortality (HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.76-1.18). Subgroup analysis showed that CBT was significantly associated with preferable OS in patients receiving myeloablative conditioning. Our data showed comparable outcomes between haplo-HSCT and CBT recipients with non-remission AML.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
α-Mannan from Candida albicans reportedly induces Th17-mediated pulmonary graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in a mouse model. This study aimed to evaluate the association between candidemia and non-infectious interstitial pneumonia (IP) in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) recipients.
Methods
By using a Japanese transplant registry database, we analyzed 9,143 pediatric and adult patients with hematological malignancies who underwent their first (n = 7,531) or second (n = 1,612) allogeneic HCT between 2009 and 2019.
Results
Non-infectious IP was observed in 694 patients at a median of 63 days (range 0-1,292) after HCT. Candidemia occurred in 358 patients at a median of 31 days (range, 0-903 days) after HCT. Candidemia treated as a time-dependent covariate was significantly associated with an increased incidence of non-infectious IP (hazard ratio [HR], 2.51; 95%CI, 1.48-4.25) along with total body irradiation (> 8Gy) (HR, 1.57; 95%CI, 1.18-2.10) and malignant lymphoma (vs. acute myeloid leukemia) (HR, 1.30; 95%CI, 1.004-1.69). On the other hand, prompt platelet recovery (HR, 0.58; 95%CI, 0.45-0.75) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (vs. acute myeloid leukemia) (HR, 0.68; 95%CI, 0.49-0.94) were associated with a reduced incidence of non-infectious IP. The median survival after the development of non-infectious IP in patients with prior candidemia was significantly shorter than that in those without it (22 days vs. 59 days, P < 0.001).
Conclusions
Candidemia was associated with an increased incidence of non-infectious IP. The prognosis of non-infectious IP after candidemia was extremely poor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Influenza virus infection (IVI) occasionally causes lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) recipients. Although the progression to LRTI entails a high mortality, the role of early antiviral therapy for its prevention has not been fully elucidated. METHODS This was a multicenter retrospective study using an additional questionnaire. Allo-HSCT recipients who developed IVI between 2012 and 2020 were included. RESULTS A total of 278 cases of IVI after allo-HSCT were identified from 15 institutions. The median patient age was 49 years, and the median time from allo-HSCT to IVI was 918 days. Neuraminidase inhibitors were administered within 48 hours of symptom onset (early neuraminidase inhibitor [NAI]) in 199 (76.9%) patients. Subsequently, 36 (12.3%) patients developed LRTI. On the multivariate analysis, age ≥50 years (hazard ratio [HR], 2.16; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.02-4.58) and moderate to severe chronic graft-versus-host disease (HR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.14-4.58) were significantly associated with progression to LRTI, whereas early NAI suppressed the progression (HR, 0.17; 95% CI, 0.06-0.46). The IVI-related mortality rate was 2.2%. CONCLUSION To reduce the risk of LRTI development after IVI, early NAI therapy should be considered in allo-HSCT recipients, especially with older patients and those with chronic graft-versus-host disease.

Abstract
Although several studies have reported significant effects of patient age on outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), the prognostic relevance of age must be determined separately for myeloablative conditioning (MAC) and reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC). We analyzed Japanese nationwide transplantation registry data of patients aged 20-79 years with acute myeloid leukemia who underwent allogeneic HCT using MAC (n = 7525) or RIC (n = 3154) between 2008 and 2019. Patient were divided into six groups by age, with each group representing a decade, and overall survival (OS), relapse, and non-relapse mortality (NRM) were compared between adjacent age groups. The adverse impact of age on OS increased each decade starting at age 40 among patients receiving MAC, but only differed significantly between patients in their 50s and 60s among those receiving RIC. In patients receiving both MAC and RIC, the detrimental effect of advanced age on OS was accompanied by an increased risk of NRM. These findings show that age affects NRM and OS significantly, but differs depending on conditioning intensity. RIC mitigates the adverse prognostic impact of older age and is thus considered a reasonable option for older patients.

Abstract
Cord blood stem cell transplantation is an important alternative for patients needing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, it is unclear how cord blood cells, which are 0 years old, age in the recipient's body after allogeneic transplantation. We performed DNA methylation (DNAm) age analysis to measure the age of cells using post-transplant peripheral blood in 50 cases of cord blood transplantation. The median chronological age (the time elapsed from the date of the cord blood transplant to the day the sample was taken for DNAm analysis) of donor cells was 4.0 years (0.2-15.0 years), while the median DNAm age was 10.0 years (1.3-30.3 years), and the ratio of DNAm age to chronological age (AgeAccel) was 2.7 (1.2-8.2). When comparing the mean values of AgeAccel in cord blood transplant cases and controls, the values were significantly higher in cord blood transplant cases. The characteristics of patients and transplant procedures were not associated with AgeAccel in this analysis, nor were they associated with the development of graft-versus-host disease. However, this analysis revealed that transplanting 0-year-old cord blood into a recipient resulted in cells aging more than twice as quickly as the elapsed time. The results shed light on the importance of the mismatch between cord blood stem cells and donor environmental factors in stem cell aging.

Abstract
Germ line DDX41 variants have been implicated in late-onset myeloid neoplasms (MNs). Despite an increasing number of publications, many important features of DDX41-mutated MNs remain to be elucidated. Here we performed a comprehensive characterization of DDX41-mutated MNs, enrolling a total of 346 patients with DDX41 pathogenic/likely-pathogenic (P/LP) germ line variants and/or somatic mutations from 9082 MN patients, together with 525 first-degree relatives of DDX41-mutated and wild-type (WT) patients. P/LP DDX41 germ line variants explained ∼80% of known germ line predisposition to MNs in adults. These risk variants were 10-fold more enriched in Japanese MN cases (n = 4461) compared with the general population of Japan (n = 20 238). This enrichment of DDX41 risk alleles was much more prominent in male than female (20.7 vs 5.0). P/LP DDX41 variants conferred a large risk of developing MNs, which was negligible until 40 years of age but rapidly increased to 49% by 90 years of age. Patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) along with a DDX41-mutation rapidly progressed to acute myeloid leukemia (AML), which was however, confined to those having truncating variants. Comutation patterns at diagnosis and at progression to AML were substantially different between DDX41-mutated and WT cases, in which none of the comutations affected clinical outcomes. Even TP53 mutations made no exceptions and their dismal effect, including multihit allelic status, on survival was almost completely mitigated by the presence of DDX41 mutations. Finally, outcomes were not affected by the conventional risk stratifications including the revised/molecular International Prognostic Scoring System. Our findings establish that MDS with DDX41-mutation defines a unique subtype of MNs that is distinct from other MNs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We recently showed that pharmacological inhibition of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) activity, based on TM5614, increases cell motility and induces the detachment of hematopoietic stem cells from their niches. In this TM5614 phase II clinical trial, we investigated whether the combination of a PAI-1 inhibitor and tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) would induce a deep molecular response (DMR) in patients affected by chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) by quantifying BCR-ABL1 transcripts. METHODS Patients with chronic phase CML treated with a stable daily dose of TKIs for at least 1 year and yielding a major molecular response (MMR) but not achieving MR4.5 were eligible for this study. After inclusion, patients began to receive TM5614 as well as a TKI. The primary objective was an evaluation of the cumulative incidence of patient progression from an MMR/MR4 to MR4.5 by 12 months. RESULTS Thirty-three patients were enrolled in the study. The median age was 59.0 years and 58% were male. No Sokal high-risk patients were enrolled in this trial. The median TKI treatment duration was 4.8 years. At the start of this study, seven patients and 26 patients received imatinib and second-generation TKIs, respectively. The cumulative MR4.5 incidence by 12 months was 33.3% (95% confidence interval, 18.0%-51.8%). The cumulative MR4.5 spontaneous conversion over 12 months was estimated as 8% with TKIs alone based on historical controls. The halving time of BCR-ABL1 at 2 months was significantly shorter for patients who achieved an MR4.5 , by 12 months than for the other patients (cutoff value: 48 days; sensitivity: 0.80; specificity: 0.91; ROC-AUC: 0.83). During this study, bleeding events and abnormal coagulation related to the drug were not reported, and TM5614 was found to be highly safe. CONCLUSION TM5614 combined with TKI was well tolerated and induced MR4.5 in more patients than stand-alone TKI treatment.

Abstract
The impact of conditioning intensity on different donor groups has been unclear in allogeneic transplantation. The objective of this study was to clarify the effect of conditioning intensity on disease-free survival (DFS), relapse, non-relapse mortality (NRM), neutrophil engraftment, and graft-versus-host disease for each donor type. We retrospectively evaluated the effect of conditioning intensity on transplant outcomes for patients with acute leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome aged between 16 and 60 years in Japan using the transplant conditioning intensity (TCI) scoring system. A total of 8526 patients who received first allogeneic transplantation from 6/6 antigen-matched sibling donor (MSD, n = 2768), 8/8 allele-matched unrelated donor (MUD, n = 2357), and unrelated single-cord blood (UCB, n = 3401) were eligible for the analyses. Compared to conditioning with TCI score 4.0, which was corresponds to conventional myeloablative conditioning, including cyclophosphamide with total body irradiation 12 Gy or busulfan 12.8 mg, and was considered as the reference group in the multivariate analyses, intensified conditioning with TCI score ≥4.5 improved DFS (hazard ratio [HR],0.81, P < 0.001) and relapse rate (HR, 0.70, P < 0.001) but only after UCB transplants and not MSD and MUD transplants. In contrast, NRM was higher after intensified conditioning with TCI score ≥4.5 for MSD (HR, 1.39, P = 0.008) and MUD (HR, 1.47, P = 0.002) transplants but not UCB transplants (HR, 1.12, P = 0.240). Neutrophil engraftment was also significantly higher after intensified conditioning with TCI score ≥4.5 but only for UCB transplants (HR, 1.24, P < 0.001), whereas it was significantly lower after reduced-intensity conditioning with TCI score ≤3.5 for MSD transplants only (HR, 0.82, P < 0.001). These data demonstrated that an intensified conditioning regimen improved survival and engraftment rate only after a UCB transplants. Therefore, TCI scoring system could enable the optimization of conditioning intensity according to donor type, particularly in terms of survival and engraftment.

Abstract
Mitochondria are indispensable in maintaining hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), and mitochondrial complex II (MCII) has been recognized as a key component of HSCs. However, the physiological role of MCII on long-term hematopoiesis and hematopoietic reconstitution capacity remains unknown. Hence, this study evaluated the impact of MCII dysfunctions on long-term HSC maintenance and hematopoietic homeostasis among conditional transgenic mice with a missense mutation in the succinate dehydrogenase complex subunit C gene (SdhcV69E). HSCs collected from SdhcV69E mice had a higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation and DNA damage in response to mitochondrial activation. Via the aging stress response, MCII dysfunctions caused decreased white blood cell count with myeloid-skewing property, macrocytic anemia, and thrombocytosis. Moreover, the HSCs of aged SdhcV69E mice exhibited greater ROS accumulation and lower membrane potential. Transplantation-induced replicative stress also caused premature senescent hematopoiesis. Furthermore, accelerated ROS accumulation and profound DNA damage in HSCs were observed in the SdhcV69E-derived cell recipients. The long-term hematopoietic reconstitution capacity was remarkably impaired in HSCs from the SdhcV69E-derived cell recipients. Taken together, MCII plays an essential role in long-term hematopoiesis, and MCII dysfunctions with aging or replicative stresses caused excessive ROS accumulation and DNA damage in HSCs, leading to premature senescence.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) offers a possible cure for patients with relapsed and refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) through potentially beneficial graft versus lymphoma effects. However, allogeneic HCT is associated with high nonrelapse mortality (NRM). Fludarabine with reduced-intensity busulfan (Flu/Bu2) and myeloablative busulfan (Flu/Bu4) are commonly used in conditioning regimens for allogeneic HCT; however, data on their use in patients with NHL is limited. We investigated the effect of busulfan dose on outcomes by comparing Flu/Bu2 and Flu/Bu4 in patients with NHL who underwent allogeneic HCT. Our study included 415 adult patients with NHL who received Flu/Bu2 (315 patients) or Flu/Bu4 (100 patients) between January 2008 and December 2019. All patients were enrolled in the Transplant Registry Unified Management Program 2 of the Japanese Data Center for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation. The primary endpoint was the 5-year overall survival (OS). To minimize potential confounding factors that may influence outcomes, we performed propensity score matching. The 5-year OS was 50.6% (95% confidence interval (CI), 39.4%-60.8%) and 32.2% (95% CI, 22.4-42.4%) in the Flu/Bu2 and Flu/Bu4 groups, respectively (p = 0.006). The hazard ratio comparing the two groups was 2.13 (95% CI, 1.30-3.50; p = 0.003). Both groups had a similar 5-year cumulative incidence of relapse (38.2% vs 41.3%; p = 0.581), and the Flu/Bu4 group had a higher cumulative incidence of 5-year NRM (15.7% vs 31.9%; p = 0.043). In this study, Flu/Bu4 was associated with worse OS compared with Flu/Bu2 because of high NRM in patients with NHL.
