BACKGROUND: Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte antigen 4 (CTLA-4) insufficiency causes a primary immune regulatory disorder characterized by lymphoproliferation, dysgammaglobulinemia, and multiorgan autoimmunity including cytopenias and colitis. OBJECTIVE: We examined the outcome of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for CTLA-4 insufficiency and study the impact of pre-HSCT CTLA-4 fusion protein (CTLA-4-Ig) therapy and pre-HSCT immune dysregulation on survival and immunologic outcome. METHODS: This was a retrospective study of HSCT for CTLA-4 insufficiency and 2q33.2-3 deletion from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation Inborn Errors Working Party. Primary end points were overall survival (OS) and disease- and chronic graft-versus-host disease-free survival (DFS). Secondary end point was immunologic outcome assessed by immune dysregulation disease activity (IDDA) score. RESULTS: Forty patients were included over a 25-year period. Before HSCT, 60% received CTLA-4-Ig, and median (range) IDDA score was 23.3 (3.9-84.0). Median (range) age at HSCT was 14.2 (1.3-56.0) years. Patients received peripheral blood stem cell (58%) or marrow (43%) from a matched unrelated donor (75%), mismatched unrelated donor (12.5%), or matched family donor (12.5%). Median (range) follow-up was 3 (0.6-15) years, and 3-year OS was 76.7% (58-87%) and DFS was 74.4% (54.9-86.0%). At latest follow-up, disease of 28 of 30 surviving patients was in disease-free remission with median IDDA reduction of 16. Probability of OS and DFS was greater in patients with lower disease activity before HSCT (IDDA < 23, P = .002 and P = .006, respectively). CTLA-4-Ig receipt did not influence OS or DFS. Cause of death was transplant related in 7 of 8 patients. CONCLUSION: HSCT is an effective therapy to prevent ongoing disease progression and morbidity, with improving survival rates over time and in patients with lower pre-HSCT disease activity.

Chronic granulomatous disease (CGD) can be cured by allogeneic hemopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Complications include graft failure, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), infection, and transplant-related mortality; therefore, reduced-intensity conditioning regimens are being used to improve outcomes. In this retrospective study, the aim was to determine the outcome of treosulfan-based conditioning in HSCT for pediatric patients with CGD. The following data were collected: risk features pre-HSCT, additional conditioning agents, donor type and stem cell source, toxicity, engraftment, GVHD, chimerism, viral reactivation, post-HSCT complications, length of follow-up, and outcome. Seventy patients (median age, 107 months; interquartile range [IQR], 46-232 months) from 16 centers worldwide were transplanted between 2006 and 2015. Ninety-one percent had high-risk features. Fifty-seven HLA-matched donors, 12 HLA-mismatched donors, and 1 CD3(+)TCR αβ/CD19 depleted parental haploidentical transplants were performed. No major toxicity was reported. Median times to neutrophil and platelet engraftment were 17 (IQR, 15-35) and 16 (IQR, 13-50) days. At a median follow-up of 34 months (IQR, 13-102 months), the overall survival was 91.4%, and event-free survival was 81.4%. The cumulative incidence of acute grade III-IV GVHD was 12%. Nine patients developed chronic GVHD. When split cell chimerism was available, 95% or more myeloid donor chimerism was documented in 80% of surviving patients. Secondary graft failure occurred in 12% of patients. Treosulfan-containing conditioning regimens can be used safely in HSCT for children with CGD and high-risk clinical features, achieving excellent survival with high myeloid chimerism. Further studies are needed to compare with other regimens and evaluate the long-term outcome, particularly on fertility.
