Alemtuzumab clearance, lymphocyte count, and T‐cell chimerism after hematopoietic stem cell transplant in sickle cell disease

Abstract: Study Objective: Alemtuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that targets the cell surface antigen CD52 on lymphocytes. Although it is used for the treatment of hematologic malignancies, such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia, and incorporated into many hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) conditioning regimens, few studies have evaluated the pharmacology of alemtuzumab in adult patients with sickle cell disease (SCD). We therefore examined the pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of alemtuzumab in adul… Show more

“…Unfortunately, translation of these pharmacometric studies to the kidney transplant setting is complicated by divergent dosing algorithms, concomitant immunosuppressive therapy, patient characteristics and CD52 expression. These HSCT patients received sequential body size-adjusted cumulative dosages of 0.2-1.5 mg/kg 10,12,13 or 45 mg/m 2 11 administered over 4-5 consecutive days 7-15 days before graft infusion. [10][11][12][13] By contrast, MS patients received fixed dosages of 12-24 mg/day on five consecutive days, followed by 12-24 mg/day on three consecutive days 12 months thereafter.…”
