BackgroundAlthough various relapse prediction models based on pre-transplant information have been reported, they cannot update the predictive probability considering post-transplant patient status. Therefore, these models are not appropriate for deciding on treatment adjustment and preemptive intervention during post-transplant follow-up. A dynamic prediction model can update the predictive probability by considering the information obtained during follow-up. ObjectiveThis study aimed to develop and assess a dynamic relapse prediction model after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) using peripheral blood Wilms’ tumor 1 messenger RNA (WT1mRNA). Study designsWe retrospectively analyzed patients with AML or MDS who underwent allo-HCT at our institution. To develop dynamic models, we employed the landmarking supermodel approach, using age, refined disease risk index, conditioning intensity, and number of transplantations as pre-transplant covariates and both pre- and post-transplant peripheral blood WT1mRNA levels as time-dependent covariates. Finally, we compared the predictive performances of the conventional and dynamic models by area under the time-dependent receiver operating characteristic curves. ResultsA total of 238 allo-HCT cases were included in this study. The dynamic model that considered all pre-transplant WT1mRNA levels and their kinetics showed superior predictive performance compared to models that considered only pre-transplant covariates or factored in both pre-transplant covariates and post-transplant WT1mRNA levels without their kinetics; their time-dependent areas under the curve were 0.89, 0.73, and 0.87, respectively. The predictive probability of relapse increased gradually from approximately 90 days before relapse. Furthermore, we developed a web application to make our model user friendly. ConclusionThis model facilitates real-time, highly accurate, and personalized relapse prediction at any time point after allo-HCT. This will aid decision-making during post-transplant follow-up by offering objective relapse forecasts for physicians.
