T-cell prolymphocytic leukemia is a rare aggressive malignancy with low susceptibility to conventional chemotherapy. The anti-CD52 antibody alemtuzumab induces remission, which requires consolidation by stem cell transplantation in eligible patients. In this case series, three chemotherapy-naïve T-PLL patients received alemtuzumab for remission induction and allogeneic SCT after reduced-intensity conditioning. While primary hematopoietic engraftment occurred in a timely fashion, donor chimerism declined in all patients between day 28 and day 290 post-transplantation. Loss of chimerism was not associated with disease recurrence, and full chimerisms were regained on donor leukocyte infusion. In six B-CLL patients, treated with identical regimens of alemtuzumab and SCT, a similar pattern of failing chimerism was not observed. We surmise that an accumulation of uncleared alemtuzumab in the plasma may impede the incoming graft after allogeneic SCT, which would indicate the need for close monitoring and management of engraftment to secure complete donor chimerism and putative cure in T-PLL patients.
