After allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), a very small number of donor stem cells reconstitute the recipient hematopoietic system, whereas the donor is left with a near-normal pool of stem cells. We hypothesized that the increased replicative stress on transplanted donor cells in the recipient could lead to the disproportionate proliferation of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) variants. We obtained blood samples from 16 related donor-recipient pairs at a median of 33.8 years (range: 6.6 to 45.7) after HCT, including the longest surviving HCT recipients in the world. For 11 of 16 pairs, a donor sample from the time of HCT was available for comparison. We performed ultrasensitive duplex sequencing of genes recurrently mutated in myeloid malignancies and CH, as well as a set of functionally neutral genomic regions representative of human genomic content at large. CH variants were observed in all donors, even those as young as 12 years old. Where donor pre-HCT sample was available, the average mutation rate in donors compared to recipients post-HCT was similar (2.0% versus 2.6% per year, respectively) within genes recurrently mutated in myeloid malignancies. Twenty-two (5.6%) of the 393 variants shared between paired donors and recipients post-HCT showed ≥10-fold higher variant allele frequency (VAF) in the recipient. A longer time since HCT was positively associated with the expansion of shared variant VAFs in the recipient. In conclusion, even decades after HCT, there does not appear to be widespread accelerated clonal expansion in the transplanted cells, highlighting the immense regenerative capacity of the human hematopoietic system.
