Introduction to Bone Marrow Transplantation

OBJECTIVES

• Describe the process and time line from the New Patient Consult to BMT Admission

• Describe the process and time line from Related Donor

Identification to actual PBSC/BM donation

• Describe the importance of HLA typing and identify important unrelated donor identification characteristics

Patient Process

NP Consult

Induction/Salvage Chemotherapy

Restaging/Pre-testing

Second Consult

BMT Admission

Stem Cell Collection

New Patient Consult

• PA/NP• History and Physical• MD• Review disease process• Treatment options• Coordinator• Immediate specific needs identified - ?Social

Work, ?Financial Coordinator• Initial Plan• Patient is discussed in weekly Clinical Conference

Induction/Salvage Chemotherapy

• Insurance• Donor Identification (tissue typing)• Unrelated donor search if necessary• Referring MD communication• Patient education • Housing/Environmental Issues• Caregiver Identification• Review of diagnostic slides• 2 – 4 months depending on disease being treated

Restaging/Pre-testing

• CT/PET/MRI• BMBX• Labwork to evaluation disease• Organ Function (PFTs, MUGA/Echo, LFTs, KFTs,

etc)• Infection evaluation (gyn, dental, cultures, CT

scans) • Menses suppression• Some insurance companies require mammogram,

PSA screening, colonoscopy• This phase can take up to 1 – 2 weeks

Formal Second Consult

• MD review test results

• MD consent (standard of care and/or clinical trial if eligible, Advanced Medical Directive, NMDP consents)

• Meet with the rest of the BMT Team - Radiaton Oncology, Psych, Social Work, Financial Coordinator)

• Obtain preauthorization from insurance company

• Meet with Coordinator to put a tentative plan on the calendar

• This phase can take up to 1 – 2 weeks

Stem Cell Collection

• Mobilization method

• Veinous access: line placement for majority of patients

• Apheresis or Bone Marrow Harvest

• Home Health for injections and/or line care

• Communication with apheresis/OR/BM Lab/Clinic

• This phase takes 1 – 3 weeks

BMT Admission

• Insurance pre-certification

• High dose chemotherapy regimen identified and communicated to Pharmacy

• Final education session with patient

• Final planning session with patient

• Complete chart to Inpatient BMT Unit

Related Donor Process

HLA Typing

Donor Evaluation

Stem Cell/Bone Marrow Collection

HLA Typing

Donor Evaluation• History & Physical

• Labwork (organ function, IDMs)

• CXR, EKG

• Risk Factor Assessment

• Social Work Evaluation

• Arm evaluation

• Education

• Consent

• This is all done in 1 day

Related Donor Collection

• Generally starts about a week after evaluation day

• Communication with apheresis/OR/BM Lab/Clinic

• PBSC (Peripheral Blood Stem Cell) Collection– Neupogen given x 3 days

– Start apheresis (stem cell collection) on the 4th

– Usually collect in 1-3 days

• Bone Marrow Harvest– Outpatient

HLA Basics

H = Human

L = Leukocyte • White Cells

• Component of the immune system

• Recognizes self from non-self

A = Antigen – a substance that when introduced into the body

stimulates the production of an antibody. (ref: dictionary.com)

HLA Basics

• HLA plays an important role in identifying self from non-self – VERY IMPORTANT IN TRANSPLANTATION

• Proteins on the outer surfaces on most cells of the body

• Inherited from our parents

• Located on chromosome 6

6 Different HLA Groups

Class

I

A B C

Class

II

DR DQ DP

• A, B, DR important in related donors

• A, B, C, DR important in unrelated donors

• Role of DQ, DP still under investigation

DNA Based HLA Typing• Serologic: A01, B02, DR15

• Low Resolution: A01XX, B02XX, DR15XX

• Intermediate Resolution: Results are narrowed to 2 or more alleles

A 01AB (0101, 0102)

B 02AC (0201, 0203)

DR 15MN (1503, 1505)

• High Resolution: Identifies the specific allele

A 0102

B 0103

DR 1503

What is a Match?• Related Allogeneic BMTs:

– 6/6 A, B, DR high resolution match preferred

– 5/6 mismatch acceptable

• Unrelated Allogeneic BMTs: – 8/8 A, B, C , DR high resolution match preferred

– 7/8 mismatch acceptable

– Current practice prefers A mismatch, over B, over C, over DR mismatches

• Cord Blood Transplants:– 4/6 match or better

What Other Factors are Involved in Unrelated Donor

Identification?• Weight of donor/cell count of cord

• Age

• Gender

• CMV status

• Parity

• Number of previous donations

• Race

• ABO Group
