Popis: | The evolution of coagulation and fibrinolysis has not been thoroughly evaluated in allogeneic SCT. In this pilot study, we characterized the adaptive mechanisms of coagulation and fibrinolysis during allogeneic SCT and 3-month follow-up and studied possible associations with outcome, including acute GVHD. Thirty patients underwent SCT for a haematological malignancy after myeloablative conditioning. Nineteen patients received the transplant from an HLA-identical sibling and 11 from an unrelated donor. GVHD prophylaxis consisted of CYA and MTX, with methylprednisolone in sibling transplants. Serial coagulation and fibrinolytic activity markers were assessed, including prothrombin fragments 1+2 (F1+2), thrombin time, D-dimer, tissue-type plasminogen-activator (tPA) and plasminogen-activator inhibitor (PAI-1). Early during conditioning therapy, F1+2 and D-dimer increased threefold indicating thrombin generation and fibrin turnover. TPA activity peaked before engraftment, concurring with diminished PAI-1. At 10 days after transplantation shortened thrombin time ( |
