α1-Antitrypsin (AAT), an acute-phase reactant not unsimilar to C-reactive protein (CRP), is a serine protease inhibitor that harbors tissue-protective and immunomodulatory attributes. Its concentrations appropriately increase during conditions of extensive tissue injury, and it induces immune tolerance, in part, by inhibiting the enzymatic activity of the inflammatory serine protease, proteinase 3 (PR3). Typically administered to patients with genetic AAT deficiency, AAT treatment was recently shown to improve outcomes in patients with steroid-refractory graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). GVHD represents a grave outcome of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), a potentially curative intervention for hematological diseases. The procedure requires radio/chemotherapy conditioning of the prospective marrow recipient, a cytotoxic process that causes vast tissue injury and, in some formats, interferes with liver production of AAT. To date, changes in the functional profile of AAT during allogeneic HSCT, and during the cytotoxic intervention that precedes HSCT, are unknown. The present study followed 53 patients scheduled for allogeneic HSCT (trial registration NCT03188601). Serum samples were tested before and after HSCT for AAT and CRP levels and for intrinsic anti-proteolytic activity. The ex vivo response to clinical-grade AAT was tested on circulating patient leukocytes and on a human epithelial cell line treated with patient sera in a gap closure assay. According to the ex vivo experiments, circulating leukocytes responded to AAT with a favorable immune-regulated profile, and epithelial gap closure was enhanced by AAT in sera from GVHD-free patients but not in sera from patients who developed GVHD. According to serum collected prior to HSCT, non-relapse mortality was reliably predicted by combining three components: AAT and CRP levels and serum anti-proteolytic activity. Taken together, HSCT outcomes are significantly affected by the anti-proteolytic function of circulating AAT, supporting early AAT augmentation therapy for allogeneic HSCT patients.
