However, nearly half of the patients require extended caplacizumab treatment (i.e., > 30 days) due to persistent ADAMTS13 deficiency, raising cost and tolerance concerns. Therefore, we investigated whether anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies titer and their trajectory during the acute phase of the disease could predict ADAMTS13 improvement (i.e., activity ≥ 20% before day-30 post-TPE). From a cohort of 286 patients receiving the triplet regimen, we identified on diagnosis a cut-off value for anti-ADAMTS13 IgG antibodies of 90.5 U/mL, with a modest discriminating ability (AUC: 0.57) for predicting long-term response, precluding its use to guide therapeutic strategies. Nonetheless, the analysis of anti-ADAMTS13 IgG antibodies titer trajectory from diagnosis revealed that the proportion of iTTP patients with ADAMTS13 activity improvement was higher in patients who decreased (Dec+) their antibodies titer within the 7-14 days interval post-TPE compared to those without decrease (Dec-) (65% vs. 25% of cases, respectively, p < 0.001), a finding confirmed in a validation cohort (N = 51). These results highlight the possibility of intensifying immunosuppression in an early period post-TPE to shorten time to ADAMTS13 activity recovery. Close monitoring of anti-ADAMTS13 antibodies titer may guide immunomodulation strategies, including additional courses of B-cell depleting agents when appropriate.","PeriodicalId":7724,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Hematology","volume":"35 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144630346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Development of disease‐modifying and efficacious hemostatic agents to treat HHT has finally begun after decades without such medical therapies. However, the lack of consensus on standardized severity definitions, outcome criteria, and terminology remains a major obstacle to clinical investigation and therapeutic development in HHT. Additionally, with the ongoing repurposing of antiangiogenic agents and emerging development of novel HHT‐specific therapies, comparative clinical trials are expected in the future. Therefore, to end the problematic heterogeneity hindering these efforts, the Global Research and Medical Advisory Board (GRMAB) of the Cure HHT Foundation, an international group of recognized HHT experts, convened a conference of expert HHT clinician‐investigators from within GRMAB as well as invited external experts in HHT and bleeding disorders generally, patients with HHT, and patient advocates to define standard terminology and definitions for outcomes and severity classification for bleeding and anemia in HHT. These criteria and definitions should be adopted by regulators, investigators, and the pharmaceutical industry in the development and performance of interventional clinical trials and cohort studies to allow improved comparability between clinical trials, facilitate communication between clinicians and investigators, improve therapeutic guideline development, and provide a standardized framework for regulatory agencies.Search Strategy and Selection CriteriaEvidence for this report was systematically identified and evaluated utilizing two search strategies in Ovid MEDLINE, described in full detail in the Appendix, pp.4–13. The searches were conducted on January 7, 2025. The titles and abstracts of each record were reviewed, and the inclusion criteria were applied to all search results to identify full text articles to be retrieved for further review. All retrieved full texts were then reviewed to reach a final determination if a study met the inclusion criteria. Included references were then compiled into evidence tables, which were then utilized by the International Consensus Report Working Group throughout the development of report recommendations.","PeriodicalId":7724,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Hematology","volume":"87 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":12.8,"publicationDate":"2025-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144629674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Data of 3878 adult AML patients receiving a first allo‐HCT in CR2 from the European Society of Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry between 2010 and 2022 were analyzed. Univariate analyses and Cox regression models were used. Results of HCTs from 803 HAPLO PTCy, 1271 matched sibling donor (MSD), and 1804 matched unrelated donor (MUD) were analyzed. A higher proportion (80.7%) of patients with European LeukemiaNet (ELN2022) intermediate−/adverse‐risk cytogenetics received an allo‐HCT from HAPLO PTCy than from either MUD (79.6%) or MSD (70.2%). On multivariate analysis, HAPLO PTCy grafts (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.65, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.51–0.82; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.001) were associated with a lower relapse incidence (RI) compared with MSD HCTs, although non‐relapse mortality was higher (HR = 1.77, 95% CI 1.34–2.34; <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> < 0.001). No difference was observed with respect to leukemia‐free survival and graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD)‐free, relapse‐free survival (GRFS) for HAPLO PTCy compared to MSD grafts.
