Summary of recommendations for transplant consolidation in adult ALL

Indication for transplant*
*Early referral of high-risk patients for prompt donor search and personalized/collaborative decision-making is critical 
Immunophenotype Early T-cell precursor 
Karyotype Complex karyotype; low hypodiploid (32–39 chromosomes); near haploid (24–31 chromosomes) 
Unfavorable molecular genetic profile IKZF1; BCR::ABL1-like (Ph-like); KMT2A rearranged; MEF2D rearranged; MYC rearranged; TP53; iAMP21 
Slow response to therapy Time to morphologic CR >4 weeks 
 Persistent MRD post-induction using flow or NGS 
No added benefit to transplant consolidation
BCR::ABL1 rearranged (Ph+)
• With incorporation of TKI therapy, studies suggest no benefit to HCT in patients who develop prompt, deep response AND have no evidence for unfavorable molecular features. 
Absence of high-risk molecular genetic features AND prompt, deep response to induction therapy. 
Role of transplant consolidation not clear
Consolidation post-CAR-T therapy
• Patients with very high risk features and patients with evidence for MRD following CAR-T likely benefit from HCT consolidation; toxicity from extensive prior therapy may result in adverse survival in other patients.
