High dose chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HCT) remains standard care of treatment for transplant-eligible patients. While single auto-HCT is commonly used, a planned tandem auto-HCT or auto-allo approach remains controversial, based on conflicting results from clinical trials. Here we compared the outcome of 24,936 MM patients aged between 20 and 65 years who underwent first auto-HCT during 2002-2015, reported to the EBMT registry, of whom 3683 and 878 got tandem auto-HCT and auto-allo-HCT respectively. We used non-standard statistical approaches to account for time-dependence of treatments and of their effects, including models with multiple timescales and dynamic prediction. Differences were reported by graphs of hazard functions, hazard ratios and conditional probabilities over time. For both OS and PFS, there was a limited but persistent advantage for the tandem auto-HCT group compared to single auto-HCT, and a clear advantage for the auto-allo-HCT group over both other strategies in the longer term, albeit at the cost of higher early mortality.</p>","PeriodicalId":9126,"journal":{"name":"Bone Marrow Transplantation","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144752261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While some clinical risk factors have been described, the contribution of cytokines, particularly in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), remains limited. This study aimed to identify predictors and characterize cytokine patterns associated with ICANS to develop a multivariable risk model. We retrospectively analyzed 101 adult patients treated with axicabtagene ciloleucel (axi-cel) or tisagenlecleucel (tisa-cel) between 2019 and 2023. Cytokines (interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-15, GM-CSF) were measured in plasma pre- and post-infusion, and in CSF during neurotoxicity. ICANS occurred in 36% of patients, more frequently with axi-cel (46% vs. 21%, p < 0.05). Autoimmune disease history and elevated IL-6 and IL-15 were associated with increased risk. CSF cytokines were also elevated during ICANS episodes. A multivariate model predicting any-grade ICANS included CAR-T product, time to cytokine release syndrome (CRS) onset, IL-6 at day 3, and pre-infusion D-dimer (AUC = 0.83). The model for grade 2-4 ICANS included number of prior therapies, grade ≥2 CRS, autoimmune disease, IL-15 at day 0, and GM-CSF (AUC = 0.80).
