Platelet transfusions can induce humoral and cellular alloimmunity. Anti-HLA antibodies can render patients refractory to subsequent transfusion, and both alloantibodies and cellular alloimmunity can contribute to subsequent bone marrow transplant rejection. Currently, there are no approved therapeutic interventions to prevent alloimmunization to platelet transfusions other than leukoreduction. Targeted blockade of T cell costimulation has shown great promise in inhibiting alloimmunity in the setting of transplantation, but has not been explored in the context of platelet transfusion. We tested the hypothesis that the costimulatory blockade reagent CTLA4-Ig would prevent alloreactivity against major and minor alloantigens on transfused platelets. BALB/c (H-2d) mice and C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice were used as platelet donors and transfusion recipients, respectively. Alloantibodies were measured by indirect immunofluorescence using BALB/c platelets and splenocytes as targets. Bone marrow transplants were carried out under reduced intensity conditioning using BALB/b (H-2b) donors and C57BL/6 (H-2b) recipients to model HLA identical transplants. Experimental groups were given CTLA4-Ig (before or after platelet transfusion) with control groups receiving isotype matched antibody. CTLA4-Ig abrogated both humoral alloimmunization (anti-H-2d antibodies) and transfusion induced bone marrow transplant rejection. Whereas a single dose of CTLA4-Ig at time of transfusion prevented alloimmunization to subsequent platelet transfusions, administration of CTLA4-Ig after initial platelet transfusion was ineffective. Delaying treatment until after platelet transfusion failed to prevent bone marrow transplant rejection. These findings demonstrate a novel strategy using an FDA approved drug that has the potential to prevent the clinical sequela of alloimmunization to platelet transfusions.
