Summary

Bronchiolitis Obliterative Syndrome (BOS) is the primary noninfectious pulmonary complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and usually carries a poor prognosis. It occurs in about 10% of children underwent HSCT. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) published guidelines and criteria for the diagnosis of BOS. BOS defined by spirometric criteria according to modified NIH consensus guidelines: FEV1 \< 75% predicted and a greater than 10% decline from pretransplant baseline, and FEV1/FVC \<0.7 (FCV: Forced Vital Capacity). Nevertheless Cheng and al. indicate that the magnitude of FEV1 decline before diagnosis exceeded the diagnostic requirement of a greater than 10% decline compared with baseline FEV. Moreover, the decline in FEV1 prior to BOS diagnosis appeared to occur within 6 months for those patients. Recent studies suggest that any intervention should be targeted during the FEV1 decline, and before the diagnosis of BOS. For this, inhalated treatment are used: Bergeron et al. reported improvements in symptoms as well in FEV1 one month followed treatment including formoterol and budesonide in a prospective trial including adults (12% increase of FEV1 for 62% adults). Williams and al. in another prospective adult's cohort, showed that the association between fluticasone, montelukast and azythromycin was associated with stable lung function, reduced systemic corticosteroids, and improved quality of life at 3 months for adults with BOS.

In our national French prospective cohort which include 300 children with HSCT from 2014 to 2017 (RESPPEDHEM Programme Hospitalier de Recherche Clinique 2012), 35% of children presented a decline of FEV1≥ 10% without BOS criteria (FEV1 \< 75% and FEV1/FVC \<0.7). Among them, some received combination of corticoids and long acting beta agonists for 6 months. Children with this type of inhalated treatment improved their FEV1 to 88.1% predicted while children without any treatment have a FEV1 at 80.7% predicted. Our hypothesis is that association of Fluticasone Propionate and Salmeterol can be used as a treatment of the decline of FEV1 for children and so prevent BOS.
