Factors affecting the efficacy of platelet transfusion and specificity of HLA-Ⅰ antibodies in tumor patients
Abstract
Objective To analyze the factors affecting the efficacy of platelet transfusion and the specificity of HLA-Ⅰ antibodies in tumor patients. Methods Tumer patients applied for platelet transfusion from November 2019 to July 2021 in Sichuan Cancer Hospital province were screened for platelet antibodies. The transfusion efficacy was evaluated and its influencing factors were analyzed, Antibody positive patients were detected for HLA-Ⅰ antibodies. Results The positive rates of platelet antibody and HLA-Ⅰ antibody, as well as the platelet transfusion refractoriness rate were 35.2%(50/142), 32.4%(46/142) and 16.9%(24/142), respectively. The platelet refractoriness rate of platelet antibody positive patients was higher than that of platelet antibody negative patients [30.0%(15/50) vs 9.8%(9/92)] (χ2=9.428, P<0.05). Multivariate logistic results showed that gender (χ2=12.608, P<0.001, OR=3.800, 95%CI: 1.819-7.940) was an independent risk factor for platelet antibody production, and platelet antibody(χ2=8.648, P<0.05, OR=3.952, 95%CI: 1.581~9.878) was the independent risk factor for transfusion efficacy. The detection rates of strong positive, positive and weak positive HLA-I antibodies were 69.6% (32/46), 80.4% (37/46) and 97.8% (45/46), respectively. The antibodies with high detection rate were anti-B*15∶12, anti-B*57∶03, anti-B*57∶01, anti-B*13∶02, anti-B*49∶01, anti-B*50∶01, anti-A*25∶01, anti-B*15∶01, anti-B*15∶02 and anti-B*44∶02. There were 19 kinds of HLA-Ⅰ antibodies with MFI≥10 000, including anti-A*02∶01, anti-A*02∶03 and anti-A*02∶06. The CCI values were lower in HLA-Ⅰ antibody positive patients(n=46) than in HLA-I antibody negative patients(n=96) by Wilcoxon test (P<0.05). Conclusion Among tumor patients who received platelet transfusion, gender(female) was the risk factor for platelet antibody production. Platelet antibody positive patients were prone to platelet transfusion refractoriness. HLA-Ⅰ antibodies were the main platelet antibodies, suggesting that HLA-Ⅰ gene matching platelets could improve the efficacy of platelet transfusion.
