Reduced-Intensity Transplantation for Lymphomas Using Haploidentical Related Donors Versus HLA-Matched Sibling Donors: A Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research Analysis.
Related donor haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (Haplo-HCT) using post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is increasingly used in patients lacking HLA-matched sibling donors (MSD). We compared outcomes after Haplo-HCT using PT-Cy with MSD-HCT in patients with lymphoma, using the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research registry.
We evaluated 987 adult patients undergoing either Haplo-HCT (n = 180) or MSD-HCT (n = 807) following reduced-intensity conditioning regimens. The haploidentical group received graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with PT-Cy with or without a calcineurin inhibitor and mycophenolate. The MSD group received calcineurin inhibitor-based GVHD prophylaxis.
Median follow-up of survivors was 3 years. The 28-day neutrophil recovery was similar in the two groups (95% v 97%; P = .31). The 28-day platelet recovery was delayed in the haploidentical group compared with the MSD group (63% v 91%; P = .001). Cumulative incidence of grade II to IV acute GVHD at day 100 was similar between the two groups (27% v 25%; P = .84). Cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD at 1 year was significantly lower after Haplo-HCT (12% v 45%; P < .001), and this benefit was confirmed on multivariate analysis (relative risk, 0.21; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.31; P < .001). For Haplo-HCT v MSD-HCT, 3-year rates of nonrelapse mortality (15% v 13%; P = .41), relapse/progression (37% v 40%; P = .51), progression-free survival (48% v 48%; P = .96), and overall survival (61% v 62%; P = .82) were similar. Multivariate analysis showed no significant difference between Haplo-HCT and MSD-HCT in terms of nonrelapse mortality (P = .06), progression/relapse (P = .10), progression-free survival (P = .83), and overall survival (P = .34).
Haplo-HCT with PT-Cy provides survival outcomes comparable to MSD-HCT, with a significantly lower risk of chronic GVHD.

Stem cell transplantation from a haploidentical donor versus a genoidentical sister for adult male patients with acute myelogenous leukemia in first remission: A retrospective study from the acute leukemia working party of the European Society for Blood a
In adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), a matched sibling donor (MSD) is considered the first choice for an allogeneic transplantation. However, a female donor for a male recipient is a poor prognostic factor. The authors compared haploidentical (HAPLO) donors with female MSDs.
In total, 834 men underwent allogenic transplantation from a female MSD, and 232 men underwent allogenic transplantation from a HAPLO donor. Of these, 86% of HAPLO recipients and 3% of MSD recipients received graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis posttransplantation with high-dose cyclophosphamide. A significant qualitative interaction was observed between donor type and cytogenetics, Therefore, the analyses were stratified on cytogenetics.
Of the men with intermediate-risk AML, 638 received transplantation from a female MSD, and 160 received transplantation from a HAPLO donor. In multivariate analysis, poor risk factors were a HAPLO donor versus an MSD for nonrelapse mortality (hazard ratio [HR], 1.7; P = .02) and patient age for nonrelapse mortality and overall survival (HR, 1.22 [P = .02] and 1.15 [P = .02], respectively). HAPLO transplantation resulted in less chronic GVHD (HR, 0.43; P < 10-4 ) but lower leukemia-free survival (HR, 1.7; P = .04). The GVHD/relapse-free survival (GRFS) was not different. Of the men with high-risk AML, 196 received transplantation from a female MSD, and 72 received transplantation from a HAPLO donor. By multivariate analysis, HAPLO recipients had a lower incidence of relapse (HR, 0.40; P = .004), better leukemia-free survival (HR, 0.46; P = .003), better overall survival (HR, 0.43; P = .003), and better GRFS (HR, 0.54; P = .006).
In men who have intermediate-risk AML, allogenic transplantation from a sister MSD or a HAPLO donor produces similar GRFS. However, in men who have high-risk AML, a HAPLO donor combined with prophylactic high-dose cyclophosphamide posttransplantation may be a better choice.

Reduced-Intensity Conditioning with Busulfan, Fludarabine, and Antithymocyte Globulin for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation from Unrelated or Haploidentical Family Donors in Patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia in Remission.
To investigate the role of antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-containing reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) in hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) from unrelated (UD) or haploidentical family donors (HFD), we conducted a phase 2 trial of 237 patients (age range, 16 to 69 years) with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in remission. Patients undergoing UD-HCT (n = 93) or HFD-HCT (n = 59) received RIC comprising busulfan, fludarabine, and ATG, 9 mg/kg, whereas those undergoing HCT from matched sibling donors (MSD, n = 85) received myeloablative busulfan and cyclophosphamide conditioning or aforementioned RIC with ATG, 4.5 mg/kg. For graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, cyclosporine and methotrexate were administered. The median follow-up period was 44.7 months after HCT for 161 survivors. For UD-HCT versus HFD-HCT, there were no significant differences in leukemia recurrence, nonrelapse mortality, relapse-free survival, grades 2 to 4 acute GVHD, and moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD. Furthermore, when the outcomes of UD-HCT and HFD-HCT were combined and compared with those of MSD-HCT, there were no significant differences in leukemia recurrence (3-year cumulative incidence, 30% versus 29%), nonrelapse mortality (3-year cumulative incidence, 7% versus 8%), relapse-free survival (3-year estimate, 63% versus 63%), and grades 2 to 4 acute GVHD (120-day cumulative incidence, 16% versus 13%). Moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD, however, occurred less frequently in UD/HFD-HCT (2-year cumulative incidence, 22% versus 40%; P = .006). The addition of ATG to conditioning regimen was a significant predictor for less chronic GVHD (subdistribution hazard ratio, .59). In AML in remission, UD/HFD-HCT after ATG-containing RIC achieved leukemia control equivalent to that of MSD-HCT. Despite HLA disparity in UD/HFD-HCT, chronic GVHD occurred less frequently after ATG-containing RIC, suggesting a strong GVHD-modulating effect of ATG.
