Complications of IMiD treatment?
• Most dose-limiting adverse effect of IMiDs is neutropenia (grades 3 or 4: 41.2%)1
• 14.7% of patients develop grade 3 or 4 thrombocytopenia1
• Up to 43% of patients fail to mobilize hematopoietic progenitors for autologous stem cell transplant after lenalidomide2

Why do IMiDs inhibit CD34+ mobilization ?

• Heterozygous deletion of the PU.1 locus associated with development of human AML2
• IMiD-dependent downregulation of PU.1 induces maturation arrest of granulocytes resulting in peripheral blood neutropenia

Conclusion
• IMiDs induce expansion of hematopoietic progenitors with concomitant inhibition of maturation
• IMiDs induce myeloid development• Inhibition of maturation via down regulation of critical
transcription factors such as PU.1 and GATA1• Significance of the results are not completely clear but
mutations of PU.1 and GATA1 have been described in hematologic malignancies
• Treatment break for maintenance suggested to allow maturation of hematopoietic progenitors
• Up to 43% of patients fail to mobilize haematopoietic progenitors after prolonged lenalidomide treatment2
• Often mobilization failure can be overcome by Plerixafor – a CXCR4 antagonist
• Role of SDF-1a/ CXCR4 in Len induced mobilization failure?
Why do IMiDs inhibit CD34+ mobilization ?
2. Mazumdar A, et al. Leukemia. 2008;22:1280-81.
LEN up regulates CXCR4 on the CD34+ cell surface
LEN upregulates CXCR4 on the CD34+ cell surface
LEN enhances the SDF-1α driven CD34+ cell migration
LEN inhibits SDF-1α induced CXCR4 internalization
Conclusion
• Len induces localization of CXCR4 to the cell membrane
• Len inhibits internalization of CXCR4 resulting in increased migration
• Inhibition of internalization of CXCR4 results in increased binding of CD34+ cells to the bone marrow niche
• Blocking the CXCR4 receptor with Plerixafor releases CD34+ cells from the increased binding to the bone marrow niche
