Clonal hematopoiesis (CH), characterized by the accumulation of acquired somatic mutations in the blood, is associated with an elevated risk of aging-related diseases and premature mortality in non-cancer populations. Patients who undergo autologous hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) are also at high risk of premature onset of aging-related conditions. Therefore, we examined the association between pretreatment CH and late-occurring (≥1 year) nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after HCT. We evaluated pathogenic and likely pathogenic CH variants (PVs) in 10 patients who developed NRM after HCT and in 29 HCT recipient controls matched by age at HCT ± 2 years (median, 64.6 years; range, 38.5 to 74.7 years), sex (79.5% male), diagnosis (61.5% with non-Hodgkin lymphoma, 18.0% with Hodgkin lymphoma, and 20.5% with multiple myeloma), and duration of follow-up. We analyzed mobilized hematopoietic stem cell DNA in samples collected before HCT using a custom panel of amplicons covering the coding exons of 79 myeloid-related genes associated with CH. PVs with allele fractions >2% were used for analyses. Cases were significantly more likely than controls to have CH (70% versus 24.1%; P = .002), to have ≥2 unique PVs (60% versus 6.9%; P < .001), and to have PVs with allelic fractions ≥10% (40% versus 3.4%; P = .003). Here we provide preliminary evidence of an association between pre-HCT CH and NRM after HCT independent of chronologic age. Integration of CH analyses may improve the accuracy of existing pre-HCT risk prediction models, setting the stage for personalized risk assessment strategies and targeted treatments to optimally prevent or manage late complications associated with HCT.

Older patients are increasingly undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation. A relevant question is whether outcomes can be improved with a younger allele-level 8/8 HLA-matched unrelated donor (MUD) rather than an older HLA-matched sibling (MSD). Accordingly, transplants in leukemia/lymphoma patients age ≥50 years were analyzed comparing outcomes for recipients of MSD ≥50 (n = 1415) versus MUD <50 years (n = 757). Risks of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grade 2 to 4 (hazard ratio [HR], 1.63; P < .001), 3 to 4 (HR, 1.85; P < .001), and chronic GVHD (HR, 1.48; P < .0001) were higher after MUD compared with MSD transplants. The effect of donor type on nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse, and overall mortality was associated with performance score. For patients with scores of 90 or 100, NRM (HR, 1.42; P = .001), relapse (HR, 1.45; P < .001), and overall mortality (HR, 1.28; P = .001) risks were higher after MUD transplants. For patients with scores below 90, NRM (HR, 0.96; P = .76), relapse (HR, 0.86; P = .25), and overall mortality (HR, 0.90; P = .29) were not significantly different after MUD and MSD transplants. These data favor an MSD over a MUD in patients age ≥50 years.
