MDS and AML Prior to Allogeneic SCT
Conditions
Keywords
MDS, AML, allogeneic SCT
Brief summary
The ALLIVE (ALLogeneic Iron inVEstigators) trial aims at quantifying the extent and dynamic change of LPI occurrence during conditioning and at identifying LPI-predictive peri-transplant parameters. Further points of interest are the improvement of systemic iron overload (SIO) diagnostics and the correlation of different SIO parameters with outcome after transplantation. The results of this trial will help to design prospective interventional studies addressing therapeutic options in patients at risk for SIO-associated toxicity during allogeneic stem-cell transplantation (allo-SCT).

Inclusion criteria
* Age \>= 18 years at the time of signing the informed consent form * Signed informed consent * Diagnosis of AML or MDS according to WHO classification * Planned allogeneic stem cell transplantation after reduced intensity or myeloablative conditioning from related or unrelated donors * At risk for iron toxicity as defined by ferritin \>500 ng/ml and/or history of more than 10 RBC transfusions prior to allo-SCT
Exclusion criteria
* Claustrophobia or other mental disorders making MRI imaging unbearable for the patient * Cardiac pacemakers, metal implants splinters or other contraindications for MRI * More than 1 Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) allele or antigen mismatch between donor and recipient * Any condition, including the presence of laboratory abnormalities, which places the subject at unacceptable risk if he/she were to participate in the study or confounds the ability to interpret data from the study * Patients with a history of chronic drug abuse or another illness which does not allow the patient to assess the nature and/or possible consequences of the study * Patients who are not likely to follow the trial protocol (lack of willingness to cooperate)

| • Time course of LPI, enhanced labile plasma iron (eLPI), directly chelatable iron (DCI) and hepcidin during allo-SCT | one year |
| • Association of detectable LPI or eLPI during conditioning and occurrence of elevated liver enzymes during in hospital treatment course for allo-SCT | one year |
| • Cumulative incidence of graft versus host disease (aGvHD) grade 2-4 with respect to serum ferritin >1000 µg/l, transfusion burden >20 units of Red blood cells (RBC), LIC >125 µmol/g, peak value and duration of detectable labile plasma iron above median | one year |
| • Cumulative incidence of day 100 non-relapse mortality (NRM) with respect to serum ferritin >1000 µg/l, transfusion burden >20 units of RBC, LIC >125 µmol/g and peak value and duration of detectable labile plasma iron above median | one year |
| • Cumulative incidence of infections with respect to serum ferritin >1000 µg/l, transfusion burden >20 parasitized red blood cell (PRBC), LIC >125 µmol/g and peak value and duration of detectable labile plasma iron above median | one year |
| • Median change of serum ferritin and LIC 100 days and 1 year after allo-SCT | one year |
| • Association between immune profile and iron parameters (serum ferritin >1000 µg/l, transfusion burden >20 units RBC, LIC >90 µmol/g and peak value and duration of detectable labile plasma iron above median | one year |
