NCT04372524

Brief Summary

This study will validate a previously developed pediatric prognostic biomarker algorithm aimed at improving prediction of risk for the later development of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD) in children and young adults undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant. By developing an early risk stratification of patients into low-, intermediate-, and high-risk for future cGvHD development (based upon their biomarker profile, before the onset of cGvHD), pre-emptive therapies aimed at preventing the onset of cGvHD can be developed based upon an individual's biological risk profile. This study will also continue research into diagnostic biomarkers of cGvHD, and begin work into biomarker models that predict clinical response to cGvHD therapies.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (10)

  • Day 60 blood sample collection

    Validation of prognostic and diagnostic power of cGvHD biomarkers and testing of the biomarker assay performance of Day 60 post-transplant blood sample. Using this algorithm-based assay the investigators will attempt to develop risk assignment for cGvHD and L-aGvHD at Day 60 and determine whether this time point has a similar (or improved) predictive value to the day +100 (+/-14 days). Flow Cytometry and ELISA assays will be used for biomarker measurement.

    Day 60 (+/- 7 days) post-transplant

  • Day 100 blood sample collection

    Validation of prognostic and diagnostic power of cGvHD biomarkers and testing of the biomarker assay performance of Day 100 post-transplant blood sample (diagnostic biomarkers). Using this algorithm-based assay the investigators will attempt to develop risk assignment for cGvHD and L-aGvHD at Day 100. Flow Cytometry and ELISA assays will be used for biomarker measurement.

    Day 100 (+/- 14 days) post-transplant

  • Onset CvHD blood sample collection

    Validation of prognostic and diagnostic power of cGvHD biomarkers and testing of the biomarker assay performance of the GvHD onset blood sample. The investigators will attempt to determine whether biomarkers present at the onset of new late-acte GvHD developing after day +100 (diagnostic biomarkers) or are similar to or different than at the onset of chronic GvHD. Flow Cytometry and ELISA assays will be used for biomarker measurement.

Study Arms (1)

Allogeneic HSC Transplant recipients

Five possible patient scenarios are anticipated to occur in those who underwent allogeneic HSCT: * Early event (e.g. death, non-engraftment) occurring before day 100. * No late-acute or chronic GvHD ever develops at any time point in the first year post-transplant (regardless of whether or not classical acute GvHD develops in the first 100 days after transplant). * Early-onset chronic GvHD (including overlap syndrome) occurred before day 60. * Early-onset chronic GvHD (including overlap syndrome) occurred between day 60 and day 100. * Chronic GvHD after Day 100, Late-acute GvHD (de-novo or recurrent) after day 100, or cases of overlap syndrome occurred after day 100.

Eligibility Criteria

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsChild (0-17), Adult (18-64)
Sampling MethodNon-Probability Sample
Study Population

Pediatric and adult (under age of 25 y.o.) patients undergoing allogeneic HSCT (hematopoietic stem cell transplantation) before the start of the conditioning regimen.

You may qualify if:

  • Any indication for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (malignant or non-malignant)
  • Age 0 - 24.99 years at the time of transplant (on day 0)
  • Any conditioning regimen (including myeloablative or reduced-toxicity/reduced-intensity)
  • Any graft source (bone marrow, peripheral blood, cord blood)
  • Any graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis strategy, including serotherapy such as ATG or alemtuzumab
  • Haploidentical transplants, including post-transplant cyclophosphamide and alpha-beta TCR depletion, are allowed

You may not qualify if:

  • Second or greater allogeneic transplant
  • Weight 7 kg or less
  • Pure CD34+ selected haploidentical stem cell transplant (not including CD34 enrichment used in alpha-beta TCR depleted haploidentical transplants, which is allowed)
  • Inability of a center to follow a patient for the development of late-acute and chronic GVHD until 1-year post-transplant (referral sites who transplant patients from outside institutions should not enroll participants if sending back to the referring site early, such that long-term follow up, blood, and data collection cannot be assured).
