Efficacy of Recombinant Human Soluble Thrombomodulin in Treating Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation Complicating Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
Acta Haematologica 2018
The prognosis for patients who experience hemostatic complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is poor. However, no report has investigated disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) caused by the complications of allo-HSCT without infection. Recombinant human soluble thrombomodulin (rhTM) was used to treat 12 episodes of DIC (n = 10; group 1) caused by allo-HSCT complications such as acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) or thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA), and the clinical outcomes were compared with those of historical controls (n = 9; group 2) treated for DIC without rhTM. In group 1, the mean DIC score was significantly improved after using rhTM. Fibrinogen degeneration product (FDP), C-reactive protein (CRP), and the inflammatory cytokine high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) were also significantly decreased. Serial changes from the baseline values of platelet counts and levels of FDP were significantly better in group 1 than in group 2. The recovery rate from DIC was significantly higher in group 1 than in group 2. These findings suggest that rhTM is effective against both DIC and systemic inflammatory complications after allo-HSCT.
