Evaluation of T Cell and Monocyte Immune Subsets in the Stem Cell Product of Patients Developing Engraftment Syndrome Following Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation for Multiple Myeloma and Lymphoma

CONCLUSIONS: The development of ES correlated with the observation of a significant increase of naïve and activated CD8 T cells in the autologous apheresis product. In contrast, no significant differences were found between the ES+ and ES- groups in the CD4 T cell or memory Treg subsets, suggesting that they do not contribute to the etiology of the syndrome. Moreover, an increased presence of non-classical monocytes with higher expression of both CD163 and CD25 was found, suggesting increased potential for both M2 and M1 activity. Further investigation is needed to determine the implications of these findings for the development of ES.DisclosuresSiegel: Merck: Consultancy, Honoraria, Speakers Bureau; Celgene: Consultancy, Honoraria, Research Funding, Speakers Bureau; Karyopharm: Consultancy, Honoraria; Novartis: Honoraria, Speakers Bureau; Janssen: Consultancy, Honoraria, Speakers Bureau; Takeda: Consultancy, Honoraria, Speakers Bureau; BMS: Consultancy, Honoraria, Speakers Bureau; Amgen: Consultancy, Honoraria, Speakers Bureau.
