Abstract:
For patients with malignant hematological diseases that relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), a second HSCT is thought to be a curative option. A second donor is usually searched for due to HLA discrepancy between the graft and the host. However, it is unclear whether HLA discrepancy between the graft and the first donor has an impact on the outcome of second HSCT. To address this issue, we focused on second HSCT patients who had received first HSCT from an HLA-mismatched (MM) donor and compared the effects of HLA discrepancy between graft and first donor with those between graft and host. We retrospectively analyzed 646 patients receiving second HSCT between 1994 and 2016 after an initial HLA-MM transplantation. With regard to the graft versus host results, the one-allele mismatch (1 MM) group (relative risk [RR], 1.88; 95% confidence interval [CI] , 0.79-4.45; p=0.163) and more than one-allele mismatch group (≥ 2 MM) (RR, 1.84; 95% CI, 0.75-4.51; p=0.182) had higher risks of grade III-IV acute GVHD compared to the HLA-matched (0 MM) group, although the results were not significant. In contrast, almost no difference in risk of acute GVHD was found among the 0, 1, and ≥ 2 MM group with respect to graft vs. first donor. Furthermore, with regard to graft vs. host, the ≥ 2 MM group showed a significantly higher risk of treatment-related mortality (TRM) (RR, 1.90; 95% CI, 1.04-3.50; p=0.038) compared to the 0 MM group. In contrast, the risk of relapse was slightly lower in the ≥ 2 MM group (RR, 068; 95% CI, 0.44-1.06; p=0.086). Consequently, no significant difference in OS was found among the three groups. In the analysis of each HLA allele MM, B allele MM between graft and host was associated with an increased risk of grade III-IV acute GVHD (RR 2.87; 95% CI, 1.42-5.79; p=0.003) and DR allele MM between graft and host was associated with a lower risk of relapse (RR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.58-0.95; p=0.018) and higher risk of TRM (RR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.03-2.00; p=0.033). In contrast, with regard to graft vs. first donor, there were no significant differences in relapse, TRM, or OS among the three groups, and also analysis of each HLA allele MM indicated no associations with relapse, TRM, or OS. These findings suggested that HLA discrepancy between graft and host, rather than between graft and first donor may induce transplant-related immunological responses in second HSCT leading to an increase in TRM. In conclusion, HLA-MM donor is an option after initial HLA-MM transplantation, however, TRM remains a challenge, particularly with a ≥ 2 MM donor regarding to graft versus host. In this study, the biological effects of HLA discrepancy between the graft and the first donor on the outcome appeared negligible, and our findings shed light on the role of nonhematopoietic APCs on transplant-related immunological responses.
