Presentation Goals
• Review Historical Perspective
• Major Questions Surrounding DLI
• Describe Current Applications
• Discuss Future Direction of DLI
• Provide Calculation Tool to Project
Target Cell Dose for Collection
Historical Perspective
• 1990 - Kolb et. al. reported first donor
lymphocyte infusion data with MRD CML
patients
• Reports of MUD DLI and CML
• Reports of other diseases treated with DLI
• Major problems encountered with DLI
Complications Associated with DLI
• Graft vs Host Disease
• Aplasia
Complications Associated with DLI
GVHD
• Undesirable side effect and is thought to be
initiated by tissue injury leading to activation
and proliferation alloreactive T-cells
• Postulated that inflammatory cytokines
produced post-transplant activate alloreactive
donor T-cells lower the threshold for GVHD
• Appears to be less incidence and severity of
GVHD post-DLI vs post-ablative SCT
Complications Associated with DLI
Aplasia
• Post DLI, has been reported in 20-40% of
patients with mortality of 5%
• Risk of death due to infections or bleeding
• Mechanism is not known
• Most patients recover counts spontaneously
• More common in hematological relapse of
CML is rarely reported in cytogenetic or
molecular relapse (Collins et al., 1997)
Treatment Outcome with DLI;
General Comments
• Unmanipulated DLI for relapsed disease after
myeloablative SCT:
– Overall incidence of aGVHD is 40-60% ,
affecting 20-35% of patients.
– Chronic GVHD occurs in 33-61% of
patients
– Deaths caused by GVHD is 6-11%
Frey et al., 2008
Treatment Outcome with DLI;
General Comments, Cont.
• CML “chronic phase,” DLI is effective without
therapy
• Advanced phase CML and acute leukemias,
remission rates higher and of shorter duration
• GVT and GVHD responses after DLI are
highly correlative
• Some patients experience GVT w/o GVHD
Frey et al., 2008
Major Questions Surrounding
DLI
• What diseases respond to DLI?
• What is the ideal cell dose for DLI?
• When is the best time to administer DLI?

Diseases and Response to DLI
CML
• Best outcome is in “chronic phase” molecular
or cytogenetic relapse, 75% remission rate
(Kolb et al.)
• In advanced phase, remission rates are
lower, accelerated and blastic phases = 12.5
-33% (Kolb et al.)
• First patient who received DLI, in remission
for > 20 years
• TKI changed the treatment course of CML
CML; Best to Worst Responders to DLI
Molecular Relapse (90-100%)
Cytogenetic Relapse (90%)
Hematologic Relapse
(CP (75%) > AP/BC (36%) > RD (0%)
(Roddie et al., 2011)
Diseases and Response to DLI
AML
• Post-transplant prognosis is generally poor
• Of those achieving remission, duration is
short lived
• Early intervention has the potential to improve
responses and survival
• Low disease burden and favorable
cytogenetics appears to be beneficial
• DLI by itself appears not to be beneficial for
relapsed AML
Diseases and Response to DLI
ALL
• Relapsed ALL has a poor prognosis,
particularly of B-cell or pre B-cell origin
• Remissions are often short in duration
• Achieving remission by receiving pre-DLI
chemotherapy, critical surrogate marker that
predicts overall survival (Collins et al. 2000)
• ALL is a rapidly proliferating disease; DLI is
rarely effective in florid relapse
Diseases and Response to DLI
Lymphoma
• Heterogeneous group of histological
diagnoses; generally classified into indolent
and aggressive groups
• Most commonly treated with autologous SCT;
the role of allogeneic SCT remains
controversial as an upfront treatment
• A small number of patients have been
reported to have undergone DLI, but has
been shown to induce remission for relapse
post-SCT
Diseases and Response to DLI
Lymphoma (cont.)
• Significant responses attained in more
aggressive lymphomas with addition of
chemotherapy
• Hodgkins- Response rates have been
disappointing (~30-40%) and of limited
duration
Diseases and Response to DLI
MM
• Autologous transplants are the preferred
treatment
• 60% of patients achieving CR with DLI
experienced long-term survival
• Published studies of “Prophylactic” DLI and
CR rate of 43-85%
• It is unclear whether DLI will add to durability
of response once patients achieve chemo-
induced remission
Hematologic Diseases; Best to Worst
Responders to DLI
CML
Lymphomas
Multiple Myeloma
Acute Leukemias
Cell Dose and DLI
• Best evidence of optimal cell dose has been
established in CML
• Optimal cell dose in most hematological
malignancies have yet to be determined
• CML with cytogenetic or molecular relapse
and unrelated donor transplants respond to
lower doses of DLI (< 1 x 107 CD3 / Kg)
• Escalating dose regimens are most effective
in CML
• The popular range of cell dose appears to be
0.01 to 1 x 108 CD3 / Kg
(Collins et al., 2000)
Cell Dose and DLI
(Roddie et al., 2011)
Cell Dose and DLI
(Doel et al., 2011)
Cell Dose and DLI
Timing of DLI Administration
• Some reports suggest distancing
administration of DLI from the inflammatory
effects of cytotoxic regimens
• In the setting of dose escalation (DE)
regimens, Mackinnon et al. recommended a
minimum of 3 months between DE infusions
• Optimal timing has been difficult to prove!
(Chang et al., 2013)
Timing of DLI Administration
Current Applications
• Reserved for patients without active GVHD
and given without prophylactic
immunosuppression
• Rapid Expansion of NST and RIC prompts
further investigation into DLI
• Due to lower intensity regimens, RIC and
NST leading cause of treatment failure is
relapse- DLI to enhance tumor response
Indications for DLI
• Treat Relapsed Disease after SCT
• Prophylactic DLI to prevent relapse and viral
reactivation
• Induce full donor chimerism
• Enhance immune reconstitution
• Treat viral infection after SCT
• Treat post-transplant lymphoproliferative
disorder
Haplo-identical SCTs and DLI
• Limited reports on outcomes of DLI after
Haploidentical SCT
• Study reports of DLI administered
conventionally and/or prophylactically
• Various cell doses and schedules have been
evaluated
Future Direction of DLI Therapy
• Therapeutic, preemptive and
prophylactic DLI administration
• Suicide gene transfected donor T-cells
• Activated DLI
• mHAg-specific CTLs
• Immunomagnetic cell selection /
depletion

Tools and Calculations to
Tailor DLI Collections
• Types of collection sources
• Obtaining pre-collection donor clinical
laboratory history
• Predicting CD3 cell yields
Types of Collection Sources
• Whole Blood
• Leukapheresis
– Conventional DLI
– Mobilized DLI
Considerations for Product
Source Selection-Whole Blood
Whole Blood
• Desired cell dose
• Urgency of product collection
• Accessibility of donor
• Location of donor
• Processing performed by Cell Therapy Laboratory
• Donor-recipient ABO matching
• Donor whole blood collection qualification issues by
Donor Center
Peripheral Blood Leukocyte Reference
Ranges for Adults
• WBC = 3.6 – 10.6 (x 103/uL)
• LYM% = 22 - 44
• CD3% = 49 - 80
Estimated CD3 Cell Dose Range
Whole Blood
Total CD3 cell range: 1.94 x 108 – 18.65 x 108
Adult recipient weight range: 40 Kg – 90 Kg
CD3 cell/Kg range: 2.16 x 106/Kg – 4.66 x 107/Kg
Very unlikely to get > 5 x 107/Kg with WB
Considerations for Product
Source Selection- Leukapheresis
Leukapheresis
• Conventional DLI
― Desired cell dose
― Timing of collection
• Mobilized DLI
― Desired Cell dose
― Addition of stem cell component (boost)
― Availability of stored aliquots
― Donor issues regarding remobilization

Summary
• Best evidence of DLI with positive response is
in CML (cytogenetic and molecular relapse)
• The best cell dose for many hematological
malignancies have yet to be determined
• The timing of DLI is affected by the pre-DLI
conditioning regimen
• Given pre-collection historical lab values,
calculated prediction can be useful in tailoring
collection endpoints
Conclusion
“One thing that becomes increasingly
apparent when reviewing the literature on
DLI is that there are many more questions
than answers”
