High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT) can achieve complete remission and improve outcomes. Unfortunately, subsequent T-cell lymphoma-triggered hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH) has a worse prognosis than B-cell lymphoma-triggered HLH.CASE SUMMARY We here report a 50-year-old woman with AITL who achieved a favorable outcome after developing HLH 2 mo after receiving high-dose chemotherapy/ASCT. The patient was initially admitted to our hospital because of multiple enlarged lymph nodes. The final pathologic diagnosis, made on biopsy of a left axillary lymph node was AITL(Stage Ⅳ, Group A). Four cycles of the following chemotherapy regimen were administered: Cyclophosphamide 1.3 g, doxorubicin 86 mg, and vincristine 2 mg on day 1;prednisone 100 mg on days 1-5;and lenalidomide 25 mg on days 1-14. The interval between each cycle was 21 d. The patient received a conditioning regimen(busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide) followed by peripheral blood stem cell infusion. Unfortunately, she developed sustained fever and a low platelet count 17 d after ACST, leading to a diagnosis of HLH after ASCT. During treatment, she experienced thrombocytopenia and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. The patient was successfully treated with etoposide and glucocorticoids.CONCLUSION It is possible that development of HLH is related to immune reconstitution after ASCT.展开更多

METHODS: This study was conducted in 90 patients undergoing autologous HSCT. Occult HBV infection was investigated by HBV-DNA analysis prior to transplantation, while HBV serology and liver function tests were screened prior to and serially after transplantation. HBV-related events including reverse seroconversion and reactivation were recorded in all patients. RESULTS: None of the patients had occult HBV prior to transplantation. Six (6.7%) patients were positivefor HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) prior to transplantation and received lamivudine prophylaxis; they did not develop HBV reactivation after transplantation. Clinical HBV infection emerged in three patients after transplantation who had negative HBV-DNA prior to HSCT. Two of these three patients had HBV reactivation while one patient developed acute hepatitis B. Three patients had anti-HBc as the sole hepatitis B-related antibody prior to transplantation, two of whom developed hepatitis B reactivation while none of the patients with antibody to HBV surface antigen (anti-HBs) did so. The 14 anti-HBs-and/or anti-HBc-positive patients among the 90 HSCT recipients experienced either persistent (8 patients) or transient (6 patients) disappearance of anti-HBs and/or anti-HBc. HBsAg seroconversion and clinical hepatitis did not develop in these patients. Female gender and multiple myeloma emerged as risk factors for loss of antibody in regression analysis (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Anti-HBc as the sole HBV marker seems to be a risk factor for reactivation after autologous HSCT. Lamivudine prophylaxis in HbsAg-positive patients continues to be effective.展开更多

Methods: 14 lymphoma patients who had lymphoma with high risk factors, relapsed lymphoma or refractory lymphoma received autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT). 14 lymphoma patients who were similar to ABMT group received autologous peripheral blood stem cells transplantation (APBSCT). Regimen of CBV (cyclophos phamide 50-60 mg/kg/d×2 d, carmustine 15 mg/kg/d×1 d, etoposide 45-60 mg/kg/d×1 d) was received by all the patients as conditioning regimen in the transplant pretreatment followed by ABMT or APBSCT. Autologous peripheral blood stem cell (APBSC) was mobilized by CTX 2g-3g/m^2/d×2 d iv and G-CSF 5 μg/kg/d for five to seven days. MRD was continually supervised by PCR in bone marrow before and after transplantation. Cellular immunocyte function, such as natural killer cell (NK), CD3, CD4, CD8 and slL-2R was tested before and twenty days after transplantation. Results: In ABMT group, the median time for hematopoietic recovery of absolute neutrophilia counts ≥0.5×10^9/L and platelet counts ≥20×10^9/L. was +18 days and +20 days respectively. In contrast, the APBSCT group was both at 12 days. Patients who have undergone ABMT all got complete remission (CR), while 81.8% patients in APBSCT group got CR. The 3-year disease free survival (DFS) in APBSCT and ABMT group was 75% and 72.7% respectively (P〉0.05). The mean days of immunity recovering in APBSCT was +20 days. After transplantation, MRD in 11 patients were positive, in whom 6 patients died. Conclusion: Aggressive lymphoma patients' hemapoiesis recovered more rapidly in APBSCT group than that in ABMT group, but 3-year DFS had no statistical difference. Patients positive for IgH/TCR-γ by molecular PCR analysis had poor DFS. Molecur monitoring of MRD using PCR techniques seems to represent a reliable prognostic indicator. Immunotherapy in the patients whose bone morrow was positive for MRD post-AHSCT may intensify remission and reduce relapse rates.展开更多

This study was designed to further evaluate its status in the combined modality treatment, especially, to discuss its value in the primary treatment of the patients who had advanced disease with poor prognostic factors. Methods: Eleven patients who had advanced or relapsed disease with poor prognostic factors were enrolled in this study. Among them, 9 cases had primary treatment, and 2 cases had secondary treatment; one patient received autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT), and 10 patients received autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (APBSCT). After induction treatment 4 cases achieved complete response (CR) and 7 cases achieved partial response (PR). High dose chemotherapy combined with total body irradiation (TBI) or total lymph node irradiation (TLI)/subtotal lymph node irradiation (STLI) were adopted in 7 cases and only high dose chemotherapy were adopted in 4 cases as the transplant preparative regimens. 5 cases received complementary irradiation in the primary sites after transplant. Results: The patients who had CR before transplantation were given consolidative therapy. Among the rest with PR, 2 cases achieved CR, 1 case PR, and 4 cases SD. Furthermore all these patients who maintained SD had bone involvement. With a median follow-up for all patients of 13(1-80) months, all of them are alive currently. Four cases are event-free survival (EFS); 4 cases with bone involvement are progression-free survival (PFS); 3 cases experienced relapse after transplant, one of them is EFS for 42 months again after a local relapsed site irradiation; the other two cases are being given further salvaged treatment now. According to the Life Tables method, the cumulative probability of 6-year PFS and OS is 55.68% and 100% respectively. The dominating transplant- related toxicity was bone marrow suppression in grades IV. No obvious cardiac, hepatic, and nephritic toxicity was found. No transplant related mortality. Conclusion: HDT combined with ASCT is a method worthwhile to further study for the treatment of the patients with advanced or relapsed Hodgkin抯 Lymphoma with poor prognostic factors.展开更多

Patients are prone to infection during the transplantation immune deficiency period. There has been a lot of clinical research into how to better manage this period of vulnerability. Objective: This study aims to investigate the efficacy of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) for skin disinfection in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and observe any adverse reactions. Methods: A total of 106 patients receiving autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from November 2019 to December 2020 in our district were selected as the control group. From January 2021 to January 2022, 106 patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cells were included in the experimental group. The control group used the immersion bath method. The experimental group was treated with an improved scrub bath method (including 3M 2% chlorhexidine gluconate medical sanitary wipes to wipe the whole skin once). Results: The bacteria-carrying rate of the improved method (37.74%) was significantly better than that of the traditional soaking method (72.64%), and the difference was statistically significant (P Conclusion: The improved bath/wipe method has a significant positive effect on skin disinfection for patients undergoing HSCT.展开更多

For this reason, we observe the feasibility and safety of PBSCs transplantation by intracoronory infusion in such patients. Methods 41 patients with AMI were allocated to receive granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G- CSF: Filgrastim,300μg) with the dose of 300μg~ 600μg/day to mobilize the stem cell, and the duration of applying G-CSF was 5 days. On the sixth day, PBSCs were separated by Baxter CS 3000 blood cel 1 separator into suspend liquid 57 ml. Then the suspend liquid was infused into the infarct related artery (IRA) by occluding the over the wire balloon and infusing artery through balloon center lumen. In the process of the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs, the complications should be observed, which were arrhythmias including of bradycardia, sinus arrest or atrial ventricular block, premature ve. ntricular beats ,ven~icular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation; and hypotention, etc. Results There were total 10 cases with complications during the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs. The incidence of complications was 24.4% (10/41), including bradyca- rdia was 2.4 % (1/41), sinus arrest or atrial ventri- cular block was 4.0% (2/41), ventricular fibrillation was 2.4 % (1/41), hypotention was 14.6 % (6/41). Conclusions In patients with AMI, intracoronary infusion of PBSCs is feasible and safe.展开更多

We used a retrospective analysis to examine 62 patients, including 46 cases of newly diagnosed MM (early transplant group) and 16 cases of relapsed/refractory MM (late transplant group). All of these patients received bortezomib-based induction therapy followed by ASCT. The efficacy and side effects of the treatment regimen were analyzed. Patients' overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) times were determined. The ratio of complete remission to near-complete remission (CR/nCR) was 69.5% versus 56.2% (P=0.361), respectively, for the early transplant group versus the late transplant group, respectively, after receiving bortezomib-based induction therapy; the overall response rates of the two group were 91.3 % and 81.2 %, respectively (P=0.369). After receiving ASCT, the CR/nCR of the two groups increased to 84.8% and 81.3%, respectively. The median time required for neutrophil engraftment of the early transplant group and the late transplant group was 11 and 14.5 days, respectively (P=0.003); the median time required for platelet engra^nent was 13 and 21.5 days (P=0.031), respectively. There were no significant differences in the toxic side effects observed during induction therapy and ASCT between the two groups. The OS of the two groups was not statistically different (P=0.058). The PFS of the early transplant group and the late transplant group was 41.6 and 26.5 months, respectively (P=0.008). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the time of receiving ASCT, the types of M protein, and the International Staging System (ISS) stage were all independent factors that influenced PFS. In conclusion, patients in a suitable condition for ASCT should be recommended to have an early ASCT immediately after diagnosis.展开更多

In the last decade the introduction of novel agents such as immunomodulatory drugs(IMi Ds) and proteasome inhibitors(PI), has dramatically changed the therapeutic scenario of this yet incurable disease. Due to the impressive results achieved with IMi Ds and PI both in terms of response rates and in terms of progression free and overall survival, and to the toxicity linked to high dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT), a burning question nowadays is whether all young patients should be offered autotransplanta-tion up front or if this should be reserved for the time of relapse. This article provides a review of the data available regarding ASCT in MM and of the current opinion of the scientific community regarding its optimal timing.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma(AITL), a unique subtype of peripheral Tcell lymphoma, has relatively poor outcomes. High-dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT) can achieve complete remission and improve outcomes. Unfortunately, subsequent T-cell lymphoma-triggered hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis(HLH) has a worse prognosis than B-cell lymphoma-triggered HLH.CASE SUMMARY We here report a 50-year-old woman with AITL who achieved a favorable outcome after developing HLH 2 mo after receiving high-dose chemotherapy/ASCT. The patient was initially admitted to our hospital because of multiple enlarged lymph nodes. The final pathologic diagnosis, made on biopsy of a left axillary lymph node was AITL(Stage Ⅳ, Group A). Four cycles of the following chemotherapy regimen were administered: Cyclophosphamide 1.3 g, doxorubicin 86 mg, and vincristine 2 mg on day 1;prednisone 100 mg on days 1-5;and lenalidomide 25 mg on days 1-14. The interval between each cycle was 21 d. The patient received a conditioning regimen(busulfan, cyclophosphamide, and etoposide) followed by peripheral blood stem cell infusion. Unfortunately, she developed sustained fever and a low platelet count 17 d after ACST, leading to a diagnosis of HLH after ASCT. During treatment, she experienced thrombocytopenia and Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. The patient was successfully treated with etoposide and glucocorticoids.CONCLUSION It is possible that development of HLH is related to immune reconstitution after ASCT.

文摘AIM: To investigate the frequency of occult hepatitis B, the clinical course of hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation and reverse seroconversion and associated risk factors in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients. METHODS: This study was conducted in 90 patients undergoing autologous HSCT. Occult HBV infection was investigated by HBV-DNA analysis prior to transplantation, while HBV serology and liver function tests were screened prior to and serially after transplantation. HBV-related events including reverse seroconversion and reactivation were recorded in all patients. RESULTS: None of the patients had occult HBV prior to transplantation. Six (6.7%) patients were positivefor HBV surface antigen (HBsAg) prior to transplantation and received lamivudine prophylaxis; they did not develop HBV reactivation after transplantation. Clinical HBV infection emerged in three patients after transplantation who had negative HBV-DNA prior to HSCT. Two of these three patients had HBV reactivation while one patient developed acute hepatitis B. Three patients had anti-HBc as the sole hepatitis B-related antibody prior to transplantation, two of whom developed hepatitis B reactivation while none of the patients with antibody to HBV surface antigen (anti-HBs) did so. The 14 anti-HBs-and/or anti-HBc-positive patients among the 90 HSCT recipients experienced either persistent (8 patients) or transient (6 patients) disappearance of anti-HBs and/or anti-HBc. HBsAg seroconversion and clinical hepatitis did not develop in these patients. Female gender and multiple myeloma emerged as risk factors for loss of antibody in regression analysis (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: Anti-HBc as the sole HBV marker seems to be a risk factor for reactivation after autologous HSCT. Lamivudine prophylaxis in HbsAg-positive patients continues to be effective.

文摘The role of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(auto-HSCT)following high-dose chemotherapy has been validated and accepted as a standard treatment for patients with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).However,its clinical efficacy as frontline therapy remains to be elucidated.This study aimed to examine the feasibility of frontline auto-HSCT for newly diagnosed intermediate/high-risk DLBCL patients.We retrospectively reviewed the data of 223 patients treated with frontline auto-HSCT or chemotherapy alone(year 2008-2014)from four hospitals.The median follow-up time was 29.4 months.Between the two treatment arms among the intermediate/high-risk DLBCL patients,the 3-year overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)rates of patients given frontline auto-HSCT were 87.6%and 81.9%,respectively,and the chemotherapy-alone group showed 3-year OS and PFS rates of 64.9%and 59.59%,respectively.Compared with the chemotherapy-alone group,the frontline auto-HSCT could eliminate the adverse impact of non-germinal center B-cell(GCB)type.In addition,in the frontline auto-HSCT group,patients who achieved complete response(CR)at auto-HSCT had a longer survival time than those who did not achieve CR.Our results suggested that frontline auto-HSCT could improve the prognosis of intennediate/high-risk DLBCL patients.
文摘Objective: To determine whether the source of autologous hematopoietic stem cells altered the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing high dose chemotherapy and autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AHSCT) for aggressive lymphoma and to study the problem of minimal residual disease (MRD). Methods: 14 lymphoma patients who had lymphoma with high risk factors, relapsed lymphoma or refractory lymphoma received autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT). 14 lymphoma patients who were similar to ABMT group received autologous peripheral blood stem cells transplantation (APBSCT). Regimen of CBV (cyclophos phamide 50-60 mg/kg/d×2 d, carmustine 15 mg/kg/d×1 d, etoposide 45-60 mg/kg/d×1 d) was received by all the patients as conditioning regimen in the transplant pretreatment followed by ABMT or APBSCT. Autologous peripheral blood stem cell (APBSC) was mobilized by CTX 2g-3g/m^2/d×2 d iv and G-CSF 5 μg/kg/d for five to seven days. MRD was continually supervised by PCR in bone marrow before and after transplantation. Cellular immunocyte function, such as natural killer cell (NK), CD3, CD4, CD8 and slL-2R was tested before and twenty days after transplantation. Results: In ABMT group, the median time for hematopoietic recovery of absolute neutrophilia counts ≥0.5×10^9/L and platelet counts ≥20×10^9/L. was +18 days and +20 days respectively. In contrast, the APBSCT group was both at 12 days. Patients who have undergone ABMT all got complete remission (CR), while 81.8% patients in APBSCT group got CR. The 3-year disease free survival (DFS) in APBSCT and ABMT group was 75% and 72.7% respectively (P〉0.05). The mean days of immunity recovering in APBSCT was +20 days. After transplantation, MRD in 11 patients were positive, in whom 6 patients died. Conclusion: Aggressive lymphoma patients' hemapoiesis recovered more rapidly in APBSCT group than that in ABMT group, but 3-year DFS had no statistical difference. Patients positive for IgH/TCR-γ by molecular PCR analysis had poor DFS. Molecur monitoring of MRD using PCR techniques seems to represent a reliable prognostic indicator. Immunotherapy in the patients whose bone morrow was positive for MRD post-AHSCT may intensify remission and reduce relapse rates.

文摘Objective: High dose therapy (HDT) with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has become one of the important salvage treatments for the Hodgkin抯 Lymphoma patients with relapsed or resistant disease, but its role as the primary treatment remains indefinite. This study was designed to further evaluate its status in the combined modality treatment, especially, to discuss its value in the primary treatment of the patients who had advanced disease with poor prognostic factors. Methods: Eleven patients who had advanced or relapsed disease with poor prognostic factors were enrolled in this study. Among them, 9 cases had primary treatment, and 2 cases had secondary treatment; one patient received autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT), and 10 patients received autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (APBSCT). After induction treatment 4 cases achieved complete response (CR) and 7 cases achieved partial response (PR). High dose chemotherapy combined with total body irradiation (TBI) or total lymph node irradiation (TLI)/subtotal lymph node irradiation (STLI) were adopted in 7 cases and only high dose chemotherapy were adopted in 4 cases as the transplant preparative regimens. 5 cases received complementary irradiation in the primary sites after transplant. Results: The patients who had CR before transplantation were given consolidative therapy. Among the rest with PR, 2 cases achieved CR, 1 case PR, and 4 cases SD. Furthermore all these patients who maintained SD had bone involvement. With a median follow-up for all patients of 13(1-80) months, all of them are alive currently. Four cases are event-free survival (EFS); 4 cases with bone involvement are progression-free survival (PFS); 3 cases experienced relapse after transplant, one of them is EFS for 42 months again after a local relapsed site irradiation; the other two cases are being given further salvaged treatment now. According to the Life Tables method, the cumulative probability of 6-year PFS and OS is 55.68% and 100% respectively. The dominating transplant- related toxicity was bone marrow suppression in grades IV. No obvious cardiac, hepatic, and nephritic toxicity was found. No transplant related mortality. Conclusion: HDT combined with ASCT is a method worthwhile to further study for the treatment of the patients with advanced or relapsed Hodgkin抯 Lymphoma with poor prognostic factors.
文摘Background: Autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is widely used in the treatment of malignant lymphoma. Patients are prone to infection during the transplantation immune deficiency period. There has been a lot of clinical research into how to better manage this period of vulnerability. Objective: This study aims to investigate the efficacy of 2% chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) for skin disinfection in patients undergoing autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and observe any adverse reactions. Methods: A total of 106 patients receiving autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from November 2019 to December 2020 in our district were selected as the control group. From January 2021 to January 2022, 106 patients with autologous hematopoietic stem cells were included in the experimental group. The control group used the immersion bath method. The experimental group was treated with an improved scrub bath method (including 3M 2% chlorhexidine gluconate medical sanitary wipes to wipe the whole skin once). Results: The bacteria-carrying rate of the improved method (37.74%) was significantly better than that of the traditional soaking method (72.64%), and the difference was statistically significant (P Conclusion: The improved bath/wipe method has a significant positive effect on skin disinfection for patients undergoing HSCT.
文摘Objectives Bone-marrow stem-cell transplantation has been shown to improve cardiac function in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) , but the safety of intracoronory infusion of autologous peripheral blood stem-cell (PBSCs) in patients with AMI is unknown. For this reason, we observe the feasibility and safety of PBSCs transplantation by intracoronory infusion in such patients. Methods 41 patients with AMI were allocated to receive granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G- CSF: Filgrastim,300μg) with the dose of 300μg~ 600μg/day to mobilize the stem cell, and the duration of applying G-CSF was 5 days. On the sixth day, PBSCs were separated by Baxter CS 3000 blood cel 1 separator into suspend liquid 57 ml. Then the suspend liquid was infused into the infarct related artery (IRA) by occluding the over the wire balloon and infusing artery through balloon center lumen. In the process of the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs, the complications should be observed, which were arrhythmias including of bradycardia, sinus arrest or atrial ventricular block, premature ve. ntricular beats ,ven~icular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation; and hypotention, etc. Results There were total 10 cases with complications during the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs. The incidence of complications was 24.4% (10/41), including bradyca- rdia was 2.4 % (1/41), sinus arrest or atrial ventri- cular block was 4.0% (2/41), ventricular fibrillation was 2.4 % (1/41), hypotention was 14.6 % (6/41). Conclusions In patients with AMI, intracoronary infusion of PBSCs is feasible and safe.
文摘Congenital cleft lip is a common congenital defect.At present,surgical treatment is the only effective treatment for congenital cleft lip.Currently,there are many surgical methods for cleft lip.Many scholars continue to the improvement of surgical methods,and the immediate effect after surgery is significantly improved.However,despite the continuous improvement of surgical methods,lip and nose deformities are inevitably left after cleft lip.Because the lip occupies an important aesthetic position in the face,the restoration of secondary lip deformity after cleft lip surgery has important clinical significance.There are individual differences in secondary lip deformities in patients with cleft lip,and there are various methods of rehabilitation.There is no uniform treatment standard.This article mainly focuses on the current treatment progress of secondary lip deformities after cleft lip,especially autologous fat transplantation in secondary lip deformity after cleft lip is reviewed as follows.

文摘Intrauterine adhesion is a major cause of female reproductive disorders.Although we and others uncontrolled pilot studies showed that treatment with autologous bone marrow stem cells made a few patients with severe intrauterine adhesion obtain live birth,no large sample randomized controlled studies on this therapeutic strategy in such patients have been reported so far.To verify if the therapy of autologous bone marrow stem cells-scaffold is superior to traditional treatment in moderate to severe intrauterine adhesion patients in increasing their ongoing pregnancy rate,we conducted this randomized controlled clinical trial.Totally 195 participants with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesion were screened and 152 of them were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to either group with autologous bone marrow stem cells-scaffold plus Foley balloon catheter or group with only Foley balloon catheter(control group)from February 2016 to January 2020.The per-protocol analysis included 140 participants:72 in bone marrow stem cells-scaffold group and 68 in control group.The ongoing pregnancy occurred in 45/72(62.5%)participants in the bone marrow stem cells-scaffold group which was significantly higher than that in the control group(28/68,41.2%)(RR=1.52,95%CI 1.08–2.12,P=0.012).The situation was similar in live birth rate(bone marrow stem cells-scaffold group 56.9%(41/72)vs.control group 38.2%(26/68),RR=1.49,95%CI 1.04–2.14,P=0.027).Compared with control group,participants in bone marrow stem cells-scaffold group showed more menstrual blood volume in the 3rd and 6th cycles and maximal endometrial thickness in the 6th cycle after hysteroscopic adhesiolysis.The incidence of mild placenta accrete was increased in bone marrow stem cells-scaffold group and no severe adverse effects were observed.In conclusion,transplantation of bone marrow stem cells-scaffold into uterine cavities of the participants with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesion increased their ongoing pregnancy and live birth rates,and this therapy was relatively safe.

文摘In our study, we determined the efficacy of bortezomib-based induction therapy followed by autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) in newly diagnosed and relapsed/refractory (R/R) multiple myeloma (MM) patients and compared the advantages of early versus late transplant. We used a retrospective analysis to examine 62 patients, including 46 cases of newly diagnosed MM (early transplant group) and 16 cases of relapsed/refractory MM (late transplant group). All of these patients received bortezomib-based induction therapy followed by ASCT. The efficacy and side effects of the treatment regimen were analyzed. Patients' overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) times were determined. The ratio of complete remission to near-complete remission (CR/nCR) was 69.5% versus 56.2% (P=0.361), respectively, for the early transplant group versus the late transplant group, respectively, after receiving bortezomib-based induction therapy; the overall response rates of the two group were 91.3 % and 81.2 %, respectively (P=0.369). After receiving ASCT, the CR/nCR of the two groups increased to 84.8% and 81.3%, respectively. The median time required for neutrophil engraftment of the early transplant group and the late transplant group was 11 and 14.5 days, respectively (P=0.003); the median time required for platelet engra^nent was 13 and 21.5 days (P=0.031), respectively. There were no significant differences in the toxic side effects observed during induction therapy and ASCT between the two groups. The OS of the two groups was not statistically different (P=0.058). The PFS of the early transplant group and the late transplant group was 41.6 and 26.5 months, respectively (P=0.008). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that the time of receiving ASCT, the types of M protein, and the International Staging System (ISS) stage were all independent factors that influenced PFS. In conclusion, patients in a suitable condition for ASCT should be recommended to have an early ASCT immediately after diagnosis.
文摘Crohn's disease(CD)is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease that can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract.The etiology of CD is unknown;however,genetic,epigenetic,environmental,and lifestyle factors could play an essential role in the onset and establishment of the disease.CD results from immune dysregulation due to loss of the healthy symbiotic relationship between host and intestinal flora and or its antigens.It affects both sexes equally with a male to female ratio of 1.0,and its onset can occur at any age,but the diagnosis is most commonly observed in the range of 20 to 40 years of age.CD diminishes quality of life,interferes with social activities,traumatizes due to the stigma of incontinence,fistulae,strictures,and colostomies,and in severe cases,affects survival when compared to the general population.Symptoms fluctuate between periods of remission and activity in which complications such as fistulas,strictures,and the need for bowel resection,surgery,and colostomy implantation make up the most severe aspects of the disease.CD can be progressive and the complications recurrent despite treatment with anti-inflammatory drugs,corticosteroids,immunosuppressants,and biological agents.However,over time many patients become refractory without treatment alternatives,and in this scenario,hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT)has emerged as a potential treatment option.The rationale for the use of HSCT for CD is anchored in animal studies and human clinical trials where HSCT could reset a patient's immune system by eliminating disease-causing effector cells and upon immune recovery increase regulatory and suppressive immune cells.Autologous HSCT using a non-myeloablative regimen of cyclophosphamide and anti-thymocyte globulin without CD34+selection has been to date the most common transplant conditioning regimen adopted.In this review we will address the current situation regarding CD treatment with HSCT and emphasize the medical,ethical,and legal aspects that permeate the procedure in Brazil.

文摘Objective To study of the effectiveness of using autologous mononuclear fraction of bone marrow for the treatment of chronic limb ischemia. Methods Results of autologous mononuclear fraction of bone marrow in 90 laboratory Wistar rats on a background of creating chronic limb ischemia was presented. Sampling was carried out from the bone marrow of the femur of the animal. The mononuclear fraction of bone marrow autologous 4 × 106 cells in a volume of 200 microliter were injected into the ischemic limb of the two points,in each of which 100 microliter:(1)Paravessel directly below the inguinal ligament at the level of the sacroiliac joint in the area of the anatomical location of collaterals in the projection of the internal iliac artery and its branches;(2)Intramuscularly in gastrocnemius muscle anterior-lateral surface of the middle third of the leg. Results In the experimental group of rats treated with autologous mononuclear fraction of bone marrow,the level of microcirculation compared with the intact group of animals on day 21 was higher than 6. 1% by day 28% ~ 31. 2%; compared with the control group-day 10 increased by 111% at day 21,85. 7% on day 28% ~ 97%. Conclusion Proposed method of treating pathogenically justified and can be recommended for use in clinical practice in the treatment of patients with chronic obliterating diseases of lower limb arteries.
文摘Since the middle of 1990 s autologous stem cell trans-plantation has been the cornerstone for the treatment of young patients with multiple myeloma(MM). In the last decade the introduction of novel agents such as immunomodulatory drugs(IMi Ds) and proteasome inhibitors(PI), has dramatically changed the therapeutic scenario of this yet incurable disease. Due to the impressive results achieved with IMi Ds and PI both in terms of response rates and in terms of progression free and overall survival, and to the toxicity linked to high dose therapy and autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT), a burning question nowadays is whether all young patients should be offered autotransplanta-tion up front or if this should be reserved for the time of relapse. This article provides a review of the data available regarding ASCT in MM and of the current opinion of the scientific community regarding its optimal timing.

文摘Objective:Evidence on the prognostic value of autologous stem cell transplantation(ASCT)and minimal residual disease(MRD)dynamics of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(NDMM)in China is limited.Our objective in the current study was to understand the current care paradigm and outcomes of these patients.Methods:This longitudinal cohort study used historical data from three top-tier hematologic disease care hospitals that contributed to the National Longitudinal Cohort of Hematological Diseases-Multiple Myeloma.Treatment regimens[proteasome inhibitor(PI)-,immunomodulatory drug(IMiD)-,PI+IMiD-based,and conventional],post-induction response,ASCT and MRD status,and survival outcomes[progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)]were evaluated.Results:In total,454 patients with NDMM were included(median age,57 years;59.0%males)with a median follow-up of 58.7 months.The overall response rate was 91.0%,83.9%,90.6%,and 60.9%for PI-,IMiD-,PI+IMiD-based,and conventional regimens,respectively.Patients with ASCT during first-line therapy(26.2%)had a longer PFS and OS than patients who did not receive ASCT[median PFS,42.9 vs.21.2 months,P<0.001;median OS,not reached(NR)vs.65.8 months,P<0.001].The median OS was NR,71.5,and 56.6 months among patients with sustained MRD negativity,loss of MRD negativity,and persistent MRD,respectively(P<0.001).Multivariate analysis revealed that the lactic dehydrogenase level,International Staging System stage,extra-medullary disease,and upfront ASCT were independent factors in predicting OS among NDMM patients.Conclusions:Our study showed that novel agent-based regimens,first-line ASCT,and sustained MRD negativity were associated with a superior outcome for patients with NDMM in China(Identifier:NCT04645199).
