Discussion Topics
• Historic perspective and definitions
• Donor and recipient-related covariates that influence transplant
outcomes and regimen choice
• Myeloablative versus reduced intensity regimens – can we really
compare them ?
• Donor – recipient issues that influence regimen choice
• We may not need to reduce dose intensity for all patients in the
6th and 7th decade of life
• Conclusions
Goal of Preparative Regimen
• Immunosuppression - adequate to
prevent rejection
• Cytoreduction - eradicate or control
malignancy (this element not needed if
disease is controlled by prior therapy)
• Stem cell space (not myelosuppression) allow donor cells to compete effectively

How did we get here?
• 1922, Fabricious-Moeller
– Shielding of legs of guinea pigs during TBI
decreased myelosuppression.
• 1952, Jacobsen/Lorenz
– Protection of TBI aplasia by injection of
spleen cells from syngeneic mice.
• 1956, Nowell/van Bekkum/Ford/Tausche
– Concept of radiation chimera.

BMT Landmarks
• 1955, Barnes and Loutit
– Carcinoma bearing mice exposed to lethal TBI with
syngeneic spleen cell transplantation had long lived
protection, but 50% of mice receiving allogeneic
spleen cells died before day 100 without tumors.
GVL and GVHD.
• 1958, Santos
– Lymphocytes (T-cells) mediate GVHD, and target
organs are lymphoid, skin, gut, and liver.

1990’s: How to improve
treatment-related mortality
and morbidity?
• Improvements in supportive care,
antibiotics, blood support, etc.
• Decrease the dose ?
Graft-vs-Malignancy Allogeneic SCT
• Much of the benefit of alloSCT is due to immune GVL
effect; therefore maximally ablative therapy may not be
needed.
• Lower dose nonmyeloablative preparative regimens
may be sufficient to prevent rejection.
• It was hypothesized that a reduced intensity,
nonmyeloablative allogeneic transplant could reduce
toxicity and allow successful treatment of older patients
and those with major comorbidities.

Review Question: Regarding the graftversus-leukemia effect, it is true that:
a) Donor neutrophils are the effector cells.
b) Chronic myelogenous leukemia is more
sensitive to the graft-versus-leukemia
effect than acute lymphoctye leukemia.
c) It is not influenced by the use of systemic
steroids.
d) It is rarely associated with graft-versushost disease.

Does the intensity of the
preparative regimen matter?
It does – however, it is not the
same for all diseases.
It depends on the diagnosis
and the sensitivity to the graft
versus malignancy effect
Are there diseases in which
reducing the intensity may be worse
than otherwise?
A cautionary tale in AML and MDS.
It is not only the regimen:
stem cell source etc etc.

Reduced-intensity Conditioning
• Use has increased over the last decade.
• There are no randomized comparisons of
regimen intensity - it is a matter of
convictions, egos, tradition, careers, and
institutional data and experience.
• Little controversy: older patients and patients
with medical comorbidities.
Conditioning Regimen Intensity:
(some) Take Home Messages
• Age does not influence outcomes with RIC/NMA for
AML, up to age 65 (+/-!!).
• HCT with RIC/NMA offers a possibility to cure AML in
the elderly in up to 30-50 % of patients (you can’t
myeloablate most patients in the late 60’s and early
70’s!!).
• Usual prognostic factors do apply (ie cytogenetics
etc).
• Disease status at transplant is the most important
predictor for post transplant outcome.
Review Question: Given that reduced-intensity
regimens are usually associated with lower
treatment-related mortality, it is true that:
a) All patients with acute myelogenous leukemia
should receive this type of regimen.
b) All patients with myelodysplastic syndrome should
receive this type of regimen.
c) There is frequently a tradeoff between less
treatment-related mortality and higher relapse rate.
d) Disease susceptibility to the graft-versus-leukemia
is the same for all hematologic malignancies.

To Ablate or Not…
•Patients with some indolent diseases have more to lose
with a high-risk approach upfront (especially now with new
medications!):
- CML in chronic phase that is refractory to imatinib and
other TKI but remain in chronic phase.
- Low grade lymphoma.
- CLL.
- Low grade MDS.
- Multiple myeloma
To Ablate or Not…
• In the absence of controlled trials RIC
regimens should be considered standard for:
– Hodgkin’s Disease
– Myeloma
– Older patients
– Heavily pretreated patients or those with
significant co-morbidities
– Most patients with CLL and NHL
Future Directions
• Better definition of risk for treatment-related
mortality.
• Incorporation of new agents.
• Better integration with standard treatment.
• Conjugation with graft engineering and post
transplant pharmacologic and immunologic
manipulations.
Conclusions
• The major contribution is the realization that
patients in the 7th and 8th decades of life can
have allogeneic transplants.
• Major obstacles to cure are delayed or poor
immune recovery, graft-versus-host disease
and disease relapse.
• Relapse rates are higher than in
myeloablative transplants for certain
diseases.
To ablate or Not,
That Is the Question…
• Controlled trials are needed to establish
whether RIC is superior to conventional
allografting or standard therapy in most
hematologic malignancies.
• These trials will need to be performed in
single diseases and selected disease stages
to be clinically informative.
• The issue of preparative regimen of choice is
unresolved.
