Brief summary

Allo-hsct is potentially curative method of treatment for children and adolescent with hematologic malignancy. However, relapses of disease after allo-hsct occur up to 50% of patients and constitute the main cause of mortality after HSCT. Donor lymphocytes infusion (DLI) is a form of immunotherapy based on developement of reaction graft versus from leukemia. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of risk-adapted srtategy of DLI for prophylaxis and prevention posttransplant relapses in children and adolescent with hematologic malignancy.

Interventions

BIOLOGICALProphylactic Donor lymphocytes infusions

Donor lymphocytes is taken by apheresis or dose of blood from allogeneic donor. After apheresis lymphocytes arel freezed for next using. DLI is transfused to patients IV using central venous access. Donor lymphocytes infusion start from D+60 - D+100 and continue with escalating doses every 1.5-3 months during first year after HSCT up to appearance of GVHD or signs of disease. First dose is 1\*10\*6 CD3+/kg. Subsequent doses increases by 0.5 log for haploidentical and unrelated donor and 1 log for sibling donor up to 1\*10\*8 CD3+/kg.

BIOLOGICALPreventive Donor lymphocytes infusions

Donor lymphocytes is taken by apheresis or dose of blood from allogeneic donor. After apheresis lymphocytes freeze for next using. DLI are transfused to patients IV using central venous access. Donor lymphocytes infusion continue with escalating doses every 1.5-3 months up to achieving MRD negative status or appearance of GVHD or signs of active disease. First dose is 1\*10\*6 CD3+/kg for patients without previous GVHD and 1\*10\*5 CD3+/kg for patients with previous GVHD. Subsequent doses increases by 0.5 log for haploidentical and unrelated donor and 1 log for sibling donor up to 1\*10\*8 CD3+/kg.

Intervention model description

The patients in this study will be divided into 2 groups: prophylactic and preventive depending on indications. Patients without signs of disease with high risk of relapse will be included into prophylactic group. Patients with persistence minimal residual disease or cytogenetic relapse will be included into preventive group. Also, patients will move from the first group to second group, if the clinical status changes.
