Abstract
Background
De novo malignancies (DNMs) are a major adverse event after solid organ transplantation; however, their characteristics and recent trends after living-donor liver transplantation (LDLT) remain unclear.
Methods
We retrospectively reviewed 1781 primary LDLT recipients (1990–2020) and annually calculated standardized incidence ratios (SIRs) of DNMs compared to the age-adjusted Japanese general population.
Results
After 21 845 person-years follow-up, 153 DNM lesions (8.6%) were identified in 131 patients (7.4%). The incidence was 0.007 person-years. DNMs included 81 post-transplant lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLDs), 14 colorectal, 12 lung, and 12 gastric cancers, and so on. Comorbid DNMs significantly worsened recipient survival than those without (p < .001). The 5- and 10-year recipient survival after DNM diagnosis were 65% and 58%, respectively. Notably, SIR1993–1995: 8.12 (95% CI: 3.71–15.4, p < .001) and SIR1996–1998: 3.11 (1.34–6.12, p = .01) were significantly high, but had decreased time-dependently to SIR2005–2007: 1.31 (0.68–2.29, p = .42) and SIR2008–2010: 1.34 (0.75–2.20, p = .33), indicating no longer significant difference in DNMs development. Currently, however, SIR2014–2016: 2.27 (1.54–3.22, p < .001) and SIR2017–2019: 2.07 (1.40–2.96, p < .001) have become significantly higher again, reflecting recent aging of recipients (>50 years) and resultant increases in non-PTLD DNMs. Furthermore, characteristically in LDLT, the fewer the donor-recipient HLA-mismatches, the less the post-transplant DNMs development.
Conclusion
DNM development after LDLT was significantly higher than in the general population due to higher PTLD incidence (1993-1998), but once became equivalent (2005-2013), then significantly increased again (2014-2019) due to recent recipient aging and resultant increase in solid cancers.
