In the field of hematological malignancy, we often have the opportunity to use antibodies such as immune checkpoint inhibitors that can alter a patient’s immune status before or after allo-HCT. The appropriate use of these novel agents is highly necessary to optimize disease control and reduce the risk of complications associated with adverse allo-immune reactions. Clinical data on several monoclonal antibodies targeting programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) (nivolumab or pembrolizumab), C-C chemokine receptor 4 (CCR4) (mogamulizumab), CD30 (brentuximab vedotin), or cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated protein 4 (CTLA-4) (ipilimumab) are reviewed, with a focus on the incidence and severity of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). While previous studies demonstrated a favorable prognosis in patients who received nivolumab prior to transplantation, the pretransplant use of nivolumab increases the incidence of GVHD, partly due to the expansion and activation of preexisting T cells. Mogamulizumab also has a significant impact on GVHD, caused by persistent depletion of regulatory T cells with CCR4 positivity. Regarding brentuximab vedotin, phase 1 trials have demonstrated considerable efficacy for steroid-refractory acute or chronic GVHD. In the future, sophisticated methods will be needed to determine the impact of each agent on immune status after allo-HCT.
