abstract = {Patients with haematological malignancies who survive the
first year after allogeneic stem cell transplantation
(alloSCT) without relapse have a substantial risk of
non-relapse mortality (NRM), and predictive markers are
missing. The Endothelial Activation and Stress Index (EASIX)
predicts endothelial complications and NRM early after
alloSCT. We hypothesised that EASIX assessed 1 year after
alloSCT in disease-free survivors may predict late NRM.
Relapse-free survivors at one year after alloSCT were
retrospectively studied in two independent cohorts (training
cohort: n=610, merged validation cohort: n=852). EASIX
determined one year after alloSCT was correlated with
overall survival (OS), NRM, and relapse. Serum endothelial
and inflammatory markers were measured in the training
cohort and correlated with EASIX-1y. EASIX-1year predicted
OS and NRM but not relapse risk in both, training and
validation cohort in univariable and multivariable Cox
regression analyses. Brier score and c-index analyses
validated the univariable EASIX effects. There was no
significant interaction between EASIX-1year and incidence of
chronic GvHD on OS. EASIX-1year predicted outcome
irrespective of pre-existing comorbidities. Principal causes
of NRM in both, training and validation cohorts were
infections with and without GvHD, as well as cardiovascular
complications. EASIX-1y correlated with sCD141 and
interleukin-18, but not with C-reactive protein, suppressor
of tumorigenicity (ST)-2, angiopoietin-2, CXCL9 or CXCL8.
EASIX-1year is the first validated predictor of late overall
and non-relapse mortality. High-risk patients as defined by
EASIX-1year might be considered for intensified surveillance
and prophylactic measures.},
