Abstract
Reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) was developed for older patients or those with poor functional status. Haploidentical donor was appropriate alternative donor for patients without matched donors or patients with emergency disease state. However, there was few studies report the outcomes of RIC regimen of anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) based haploidentical HSCT. The selection of the appropriate RIC regimen based on age and comorbidities in ATG-based haploidentical HSCT remains poorly described. To investigate the safety and efficacy of RIC regimen ATG-based haploidentical HSCT in older or unfit patients. Additionally, to explore the potential factors that impact the prognosis of RIC regimen of ATG-based haploidentical HSCT. We included a retrospective cohort of 63 patients with hematologic malignant diseases who underwent their first RIC haploidentical HSCT from November 2016 to June 2022 at our institutions. The conditioning regimen involved fludarabine (Flu) 30 mg/m²/kg 6 days combined with busulfan 3.2 mg/kg 2 days (Bu2) or 3 days (Bu3). ATG-Fresenius (ATG-F) was administered 10 mg/kg in total, ATG-thymoglobulin (ATG-T) was administered 6 mg/kg in total. The median age of patients in the entire cohort was 60 (32-67) years with a median follow-up of 496 (83-2182) days. There were 29 patients with AML, 20 patients with MDS, and 14 patients with ALL. A total of 32 patients underwent Bu2 RIC haplo-HSCT and 31 patients were treated with Bu3 RIC haplo-HSCT. The 2-year overall survival (OS) and 2-year disease-free survival (DFS) in whole cohort were 67.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 53.8 - 85.1%) and 61.4% (95% CI, 48.8 - 77.3%) respectively. The cumulative incidence rates of grades II to IV and grades III to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in whole cohort were 15.8% (95% CI, 4.8 - 19.6%) and 9.7% (95% CI, 0.0 - 11.8%) respectively. The 2-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was 34.0% (95% CI, 18.9 - 46.3%). The 2-year cumulative incidence rates of relapse (IR) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) rates in whole cohort were 27.5% (95% CI, 14.5 - 33.7%) and 11.6% (95% CI, 2.2 - 21.9%) respectively. The probability of 2-year OS were 60.2% (95% CI:42.5-85.3%) in Bu2 and 85.5%(95% CI:73.0-100%) in Bu3 group respectively(P = 0.150). The probability of 2-year DFS were 49.7% (95% CI:33.0-74.8%) in Bu2 and 72.6% (95% CI:55.5-95.5%) in Bu3 group respectively (P = 0.045). The 2-year IR of Bu2 group was significantly higher than Bu3 group (P = 0.045). However, the 2-year NRM were not significantly different between Bu2 and Bu3 group(P > 0.05). In multivariable analysis, RIC regimen of Bu3 had superior OS and DFS than Bu2 group respectively [HR 0.42, 95% CI 0.18-0.98; P = 0.044; HR 0.34, 95% CI 0.14-0.86; P = 0.022]. Besides, RIC regimen of Bu3 had lower IR than Bu2 group [HR 0.34, 95% CI 0.13-0.89; P = 0.029]. The RIC regimen of ATG-based haploidentical HSCT is a safe and effective treatment option for patients who are older or have poor functional status. In particular, a relatively high-intensity pre-treatment regimen consisting of Bu achieves significant improvements in OS and DFS, thus providing more favorable post-transplantation clinical outcomes.

Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation for adult T-lymphoblastic lymphoma: A real-world multicentre analysis in China. Br J Haematol 2024; 204:2390-2399. [PMID: 38664918 DOI: 10.1111/bjh.19481] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
In this multicentre, real-world study, we aimed to identify the clinical outcomes and safety of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in T-lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL). A total of 130 Ann Arbor stage III or IV T-LBL patients (>16 years) treated with allo-HSCT across five transplant centres were enrolled. The 2-year cumulative incidence of disease progression, the probabilities of progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) after allo-HSCT were 21.0%, 69.8%, 79.5% and 9.2% respectively. Patients with central nervous system (CNS) involvement had a higher cumulative incidence of disease progression compared with those without CNS involvement (57.1% vs. 18.9%, HR 3.78, p = 0.014). Patients receiving allo-HSCT in non-remission (NR) had a poorer PFS compared with those receiving allo-HSCT in complete remission (CR) or partial remission (49.2% vs. 72.7%, HR 2.21, p = 0.041). Particularly for patients with bone marrow involvement and achieving CR before allo-HSCT, measurable residual disease (MRD) positivity before allo-HSCT was associated with a poorer PFS compared with MRD negativity (62.7% vs. 86.8%, HR 1.94, p = 0.036). On multivariate analysis, CNS involvement at diagnosis and receiving allo-HSCT in NR were associated with disease progression. Thus, our real-world data suggested that allo-HSCT appeared to be an effective therapy for adult T-LBL patients with Ann Arbor stage III or IV disease.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment option for patients with highly chemorefractory Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). The CD30-targeting antibody-drug conjugate Brentuximab-Vedotin (BV) and programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) blocking agents have demonstrated clinical activity with durable responses in relapsed/refractory (r/r) HL. However, patients with a history of allo-HSCT were frequently excluded from clinical trials due to concerns about the risk of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We report the clinical history of a patient with refractory classical HL who underwent two allo-HSCTs (first from matched unrelated and second from haploidentical donor) after relapsing on BV and nivolumab and for whom durable remission was finally obtained using BV-pembrolizumab combination for relapse after haploidentical HSCT. Such treatment was associated with the onset of GVHD after only two cycles which led to treatment discontinuation. However, the side effects were rapidly controlled, and after 2 years of follow-up, the patient is still in remission. Our data support the feasibility and efficacy of combining PD-1 blockade with BV to enhance the graft-versus-lymphoma effect after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) has emerged as a promising approach for preventing graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, there is a lack of studies examining the impact of this GVHD prophylaxis when different donor types are used in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL). This study compared the outcomes of patients with HL undergoing HSCT from HLA-matched donors, including matched sibling donors (MSDs) and matched unrelated donors (MUDs), and haploidentical donors, using PTCy as the GVHD prophylaxis approach in all cohorts. We retrospectively compared outcomes of allo-HSCT from 166 HLA-matched donors (96 sibling and 70 unrelated donors) and 694 haploidentical donors using PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis in patients with HL registered in the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation database from 2010 to 2020. Compared to HLA-matched HSCT, haploidentical donor HSCT was associated with a significantly lower rate of platelet engraftment (86% versus 94%; P < .001) and a higher rate of grade II-IV acute GVHD (34% versus 24%; P = .01). The 2-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was significantly lower in the HLA-matched cohort compared to the haploidentical cohort (10% versus 18%; P = .02), resulting in a higher overall survival (OS) rate (82% versus 70%; P = .002). There were no significant differences between the 2 cohorts in terms of relapse, progression-free survival, or GVHD-free relapse-free survival. In multivariable analysis, haploidentical HSCT was associated with an increased risk of grade II-IV acute GVHD and NRM and worse OS compared to HLA-matched HSCT. Our findings suggest that in the context of PTCy-based GVHD prophylaxis, transplantation from HLA-matched donors appears to be a more favorable option compared to haploidentical HSCT.

Abstract
In search of an ideal partner or alternative to conventional immunosuppressive agents, rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and, more recently, post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) have both emerged as valid and efficient options for preventing graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). To further reduce the risk of GvHD, strategies combining ATG and PT-Cy have recently been investigated. In a haploidentical setting, retrospective studies suggest that combining PT-Cy and ATG may result in a lower incidence of chronic GvHD without increasing the risks of infection or relapse, when compared to PT-Cy without ATG. In haploidentical or unrelated donor settings, adding reduced doses of PT-Cy to ATG may reduce the risk of acute and chronic GvHD and improve survival, particularly GvHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS), when compared to ATG without PT-Cy. Overall, the combination of PT-Cy and ATG is a safe and promising approach for patients with hematological malignancies undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT).

Abstract
Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is effective for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, but it may cause dose-dependent toxicities, particularly in frail patients. Therefore, we compared the outcomes with a reduced PT-Cy total dose (70 mg/kg) to those with the standard PT-Cy dose (100 mg/kg) in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) patients aged ≥ 65 years and those with cardiac comorbidities. All consecutive patients with a hematological malignancy receiving peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) after a thiotepa-based conditioning with low-dose antithymocyte globulin were included. Thirty-three patients received PT-Cy at 70 mg/kg and 25 at 100 mg/kg. PT-Cy dose reduction did not increase the risk of GVHD and was associated with faster neutrophil and platelet recovery, and lower cumulative incidences of bacteremia (38% versus 72%, p = 0.004) and cardiac complications (12% versus 44%, p = 0.028). At 2 years, GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was higher with the reduced dose compared to the standard dose (60% versus 33%, p = 0.04). In conclusion, reducing PT-Cy total dose to 70 mg/kg is a safe and valid approach for elderly patients and those with cardiac comorbidities underdoing haploidentical HCT with PBSCs and low-dose antithymocyte globulin. The reduced PT-Cy dose was associated with improved hematological count recovery, lower incidence of toxicities, and higher GRFS.

Abstract
In this review, we discuss recipient risk assessment for allo-HCT regarding comorbidities present at baseline to predict non relapse mortality. We further reviewed the incorporation of remission status and cytogenetic risk prior to allograft transplantation to predict relapse rates for hematologic malignancies. HCT-CI and DRI are tools available to physicians to assess the risk-benefit of allo-HCT in patients referred for transplantation. Next, we discuss our algorithm for donor selection and criteria for donor selection in case matched donors are not available. Finally, we discuss our approach for stem cell mobilization, especially in donors failing G-CSF, and our approach for the use of plerixafor and data supporting its use.

Reduced post-transplant cyclophosphamide doses in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation for elderly patients with hematological malignancies. Bone Marrow Transplant 2022; 58:386-392. [PMID: 36585459 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-022-01908-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/21/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
Although post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is effective for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, it is associated with toxicities, which might be dose-dependent. We compared the outcomes with PT-Cy at 80 mg/kg to those with PT-Cy at 100 mg/kg in elderly patients undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Inclusion criteria included peripheral blood stem cells, hematological malignancy, and age>65 years (or age>60 years if cardiac event history). Thirty-eight patients received PT-Cy at 80 mg/kg and 55 100 mg/kg, divided in two doses. The cumulative incidences (CI) of acute grade II-IV, acute grade III-IV, and moderate/severe chronic GVHD were 32%, 16%, and 13% with PT-Cy at 80 mg/kg compared to 33%, 13%, and 16% with 100 mg/kg, respectively. In multivariable analysis, reducing PT-Cy dose had no significant impact on GVHD. Neutrophil and platelet engraftments were significantly improved, and CI of BK virus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis was reduced with 80 mg/kg of PT-Cy compared to 100 mg/kg. At 2 years, non-relapse mortality was 16% and 31%, progression-free survival 65% and 49%, overall survival 70% and 56%, and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival 52% and 36% with 80 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg, respectively. Reducing PT-Cy dose to 80 mg/kg is safe and associated with improved hematological recovery and lower CI of hemorrhagic cystitis in elderly patients undergoing haploidentical HCT.

Abstract
Background: Despite therapeutic progress, 10 to 30% of adult patients with primary mediastinal B cell lymphoma (PMBCL) are primary refractory or experience early relapse (R/R). Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) thus remains a potentially curative option in this setting.Material and Methods: In this multicenter retrospective study, the outcomes of 33 French and Belgian adult patients allo-transplanted for R/R PMBCL between January 1999 and December 2018, were examined.Results: At allo-HSCT time, patients had received a median of 3 treatment lines, 50% of them were in complete response, 40% in partial response and 10% had a progressive disease. Forty-two percent of the donors were siblings and 39% matched related. The median follow-up for alive patients was 78 months (3.5-157). Considering the whole cohort, 2-year overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS) and graft-versus-host disease-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) were 48% (95%CI: 33-70), 47% (95%CI: 33-68) and 38.5% (95%CI: 25-60) respectively. Cumulative incidence of relapse and non-relapse mortality rates were respectively 34% (95%CI: 18-50) and 18% (95%CI: 7-34). Disease status at transplant was the only factor predicting survivals, patients with progressive disease showing significant lower 2-year PFS (HR: 6.12, 95%CI: 1.32-28.31, p = 0.02) and OS (HR: 7.04, 95%CI: 1.52-32.75, p = 0.013). A plateau was observed for OS and PFS after 4 years with 10 patients alive after this date, suggesting that almost one third of the patients effectively salvaged and undergoing allo-SCT could be cured.Conclusion: This study indicates that allo-HSCT is a valid therapeutic option for R/R PMBCL, providing durable remissions.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate whether haplotype hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) is effective in the treatment of pre transplant minimal residual disease (Pre-MRD) positive acute B lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) compared with HLA- matched sibling donor transplantation (MSDT) . Methods: A total of 998 patients with B-ALL in complete remission pre-HSCT who either received haplo-HSCT (n=788) or underwent MSDT (n=210) were retrospectively analyzed. The pre-transplantation leukemia burden was evaluated according to Pre-MRD determinedusing multiparameter flow cytometry (MFC) . Results: Of these patients, 997 (99.9% ) achieved sustained, full donor chimerism. The 100-day cumulative incidences of neutrophil engraftment, platelet engraftment, and grades Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were 99.9% (997/998) , 95.3% (951/998) , and 26.6% (95% CI 23.8% -29.4% ) , respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of total chronic GVHD was 49.1% (95% CI 45.7% -52.4% ) . The 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) of the 998 cases were 17.3% (95% CI 15.0% -19.7% ) and 13.8% (95% CI 11.6% -16.0% ) , respectively. The 3-year probabilities of leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) were 69.1% (95% CI 66.1% -72.1% ) and 73.0% (95% CI 70.2% -75.8% ) , respectively. In the total patient group, cases with positive Pre-MRD (n=282) experienced significantly higher CIR than that of subjects with negative Pre-MRD [n=716, 31.6% (95% CI 25.8% -37.5% ) vs 14.3% (95% CI 11.4% -17.2% ) , P<0.001]. For patients in the positive Pre-MRD subgroup, cases treated with haplo-HSCT (n=219) had a lower 3-year CIR than that of cases who underwent MSDT [n=63, 27.2% (95% CI 21.0% -33.4% ) vs 47.0% (95% CI 33.8% -60.2% ) , P=0.002]. The total 998 cases were classified as five subgroups, including cases with negative Pre-MRD group (n=716) , cases with Pre-MRD<0.01% group (n=46) , cases with Pre-MRD 0.01% -<0.1% group (n=117) , cases with Pre-MRD 0.1% -<1% group (n=87) , and cases with Pre-MRD≥1% group (n=32) . For subjects in the Pre-MRD<0.01% group, haplo-HSCT (n=40) had a lower CIR than that of MSDT [n=6, 10.0% (95% CI 0.4% -19.6% ) vs 32.3% (95% CI 0% -69.9% ) , P=0.017]. For patients in the Pre-MRD 0.01% -<0.1% group, haplo-HSCT (n=81) also had a lower 3-year CIR than that of MSDT [n=36, 20.4% (95% CI 10.4% -30.4% ) vs 47.0% (95% CI 29.2% -64.8% ) , P=0.004]. In the other three subgroups, the 3-year CIR was comparable between patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and those received MSDT. A subgroup analysis of patients with Pre-MRD<0.1% (n=163) was performed, the results showed that cases received haplo-HSCT (n=121) experienced lower 3-year CIR [16.0% (95% CI 9.4% -22.7% ) vs 40.5% (95% CI 25.2% -55.8% ) , P<0.001], better 3-year LFS [78.2% (95% CI 70.6% -85.8% ) vs 47.6% (95% CI 32.2% -63.0% ) , P<0.001] and OS [80.5% (95% CI 73.1% -87.9% ) vs 54.6% (95% CI 39.2% -70.0% ) , P<0.001] than those of MSDT (n=42) , but comparable in 3-year NRM [5.8% (95% CI 1.6% -10.0% ) vs 11.9% (95% CI 2.0% -21.8% ) , P=0.188]. Multivariate analysis showed that haplo-HSCT was associated with lower CIR (HR=0.248, 95% CI 0.131-0.472, P<0.001) , and superior LFS (HR=0.275, 95% CI 0.157-0.483, P<0.001) and OS (HR=0.286, 95% CI 0.159-0.513, P<0.001) . Conclusion: Haplo HSCT has a survival advantage over MSDT in the treatment of B-ALL patients with pre MRD<0.1% .

Abstract
One of the most complex issues with haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) is donor selection, given that multiple haploidentical donors are often available for a given recipient. To develop evidence-based guidance for donor selection in the setting of anti-thymocyte globulin-based haplo-SCT, we performed a prospective cohort study of 512 patients with haematological malignancies who had haplo-SCT to determine which donor variables were most important in favouring transplant outcomes. Increasing donor age was associated with poorer overall survival (OS) [hazard ratio (HR) 1·08, P = 0·044]. Female donors to male recipients was significantly associated with higher non-relapse mortality (NRM; HR 2·05, P = 0·006). Furthermore, increasing donor age had a higher risk of Grades 3-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD; HR 1·17, P = 0·005), female donors to male recipients was associated with a higher risk of Grades 2-4 aGVHD (HR 1·50, P = 0·022). Sibling donors had superior OS, disease-free survival, and NRM than parental donors in patients aged <35 years. However, sibling donors had higher NRM than offspring donors in patients aged ≥35 years. A younger donor, usually a young sibling in younger recipients (aged <35 years) or a young offspring in older patients (aged ≥35 years) and avoiding female donors to male recipients should be preferred when multiple haploidentical donors are available.

A Phase I/II Multicenter Trial of HLA-Haploidentical PBSCT with PTCy for Aggressive Adult T Cell Leukemia/Lymphoma. Transplant Cell Ther 2021; 27:928.e1-928.e7.

Abstract
Adult T cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATL) is a highly aggressive hematologic malignancy with a very poor prognosis, and most patients with ATL are elderly. Although post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) has yielded promising results in various diseases, available data are limited regarding its outcomes in ATL. The aim of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of reduced-intensity peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) from a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical donor using PTCy as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. This was a prospective, multicenter phase I/II study (UMIN000021783) conducted at 16 hospitals in Japan. The primary endpoint was the probability of survival with engraftment and without grade III/IV acute GVHD at day 60 after PBSCT. The expected probability of the primary endpoint was estimated to be 60%, and the threshold probability was set at 30% on the basis of previous studies. The conditioning regimen consisted of fludarabine (30 mg/m2/d from day -7 to -2), melphalan (40 mg/m2/d on days -3 and -2), and total body irradiation (2 Gy on day -1). GVHD prophylaxis consisted of tacrolimus starting at 0.02 mg/kg/d on day -1, PTCy (50 mg/kg/d on days +3 and +5), and mycophenolate mofetil 2000 mg/d starting on day +6. Eighteen ATL patients underwent PBSCT. The probability of patients who met the primary endpoint was 89% (95% confidence interval, 65% to 99%). The cumulative incidences of grade II to IV acute GVHD, III/IV acute GVHD, and moderate-to-severe chronic GVHD were 39%, 11%, and 17%, respectively. The probabilities of overall survival were 83% at 1 year and 73% at 2 years. The cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality and disease progression at 1 year were 11% and 28%, respectively. HLA-haploidentical PBSCT with PTCy as GVHD prophylaxis is a valid option for patients with aggressive ATL.

Abstract
Hodgkin lymphoma is a highly curable disease. Although most patients achieve complete response following frontline therapy, key unmet clinical needs remain including relapsed/refractory disease, treatment-related morbidity, impaired quality of life and poor outcome in patients older than 60 years. The incorporation of novel therapies, including check point inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates, into the frontline setting, sequential approaches, and further individualized treatment intensity may address these needs. We summarize the current treatment options for patients with classical Hodgkin lymphoma from frontline therapy to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and describe novel trials in the field.

Abstract
Introduction: Current combined intensive chemotherapy and radiation regimens yield excellent survival rates in advanced classic Hodgkin’s lymphoma (cHL). However, acute toxicity in elderly, comorbid patients can be challenging and long-term survival in refractory patients remains poor. Patients and Methods: We report on six patients with r/r HL, three patients with long-term follow-up, three newly treated, after biomodulatory therapy. All patients received MEPED (treosulfan 250 mg p.o. daily, everolimus 15 mg p.o. daily to achieve serum trough levels of 15 ng/ml, pioglitazone 45 mg p.o. daily, etoricoxib 60 mg p.o. daily and dexamethasone 0.5 mg p.o. daily). Patients had either received every at that time approved systemic treatment or were ineligible for standard treatment, including immune checkpoint inhibition (ICPi) due to prior demyelinating autoimmune polyneuropathy, myasthenia gravis and previous allogeneic hematopoietic-stem-cell transplant (alloHSCT). Medication was administered continuously from day 1. One patient with relapse after alloHSCT received trofosfamide 50 mg daily instead of treosulfan to avoid risk of increased myelotoxicity. The patients were treated in individual healing attempts outside a clinical trial after institutional review board approval. 18F-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron emission tomography combined with computed tomography scan (FDG-PET/CT) was performed to monitor treatment and follow-up. Results: In the three newly treated patients, CT scans showed partial remissions after 2–5 months on MEPED treatment. Two patients had achieved PET Deauville score 2 and 3, while the third remained positive at Deauville score 5. One patient achieving PR became eligible for alloHSCT, while the other two patients continued treatment with MEPED. All patients eventually achieved continuous complete remission (cCR), one after consecutive alloHSCT, one after discontinuing MEPED consolidation for >1 year and one on on-going MEPED consolidation, respectively. Only one patient experienced Grade 3 toxicity (bacterial pneumonia) requiring temporary discontinuation of MEPED for 10 days. All three previously published patients received allo HSCT for consolidation and have achieved cCR. Conclusions: MEPED is well tolerated with low toxicity and highly efficacious in relapsed/refractory cHL, including severely comorbid patients. Due to its immunomodulatory components, MEPED might also have a synergistic potential when combined with ICPi but requires further evaluation within a clinical trial.

Early Cardiac Toxicity Associated With Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide in Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation. JACC: CARDIOONCOLOGY 2021; 3:250-259. [PMID: 34396331 PMCID: PMC8352028 DOI: 10.1016/j.jaccao.2021.02.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 41] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2020] [Revised: 02/24/2021] [Accepted: 02/26/2021] [Indexed: 11/30/2022]
Abstract
Background Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) has become a standard of care in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to reduce the risk of graft-versus-host disease. However, data on cardiac events associated with PT-Cy are scarce. Objectives This study sought to assess the incidence and clinical features of cardiac events associated with PT-Cy. Methods The study compared clinical outcomes between patients who received PT-Cy (n = 136) and patients who did not (n = 195), with a focus on early cardiac events (ECE) occurring within the first 100 days after HSCT. All patients had the same systematic cardiac monitoring. Results The cumulative incidence of ECE was 19% in the PT-Cy group and 6% in the no–PT-Cy group (p < 0.001). The main ECE occurring after PT-Cy were left ventricular systolic dysfunction (13%), acute pulmonary edema (7%), pericarditis (4%), arrhythmia (3%), and acute coronary syndrome (2%). Cardiovascular risk factors were not associated with ECE. In multivariable analysis, the use of PT-Cy was associated with ECE (hazard ratio: 2.7; 95% confidence interval: 1.4 to 4.9; p = 0.002]. Older age, sequential conditioning regimen, and Cy exposure before HSCT were also associated with a higher incidence of ECE. Finally, a history of cardiac events before HSCT and ECE had a detrimental impact on overall survival. Conclusions PT-Cy is associated with a higher incidence of ECE occurring within the first 100 days after HSCT. Patients who have a cardiac event after HSCT have lower overall survival. These results may help to improve the selection of patients who are eligible to undergo HSCT with PT-Cy, especially older adult patients and patients with previous exposure to Cy.

Abstract
For relapsed Hodgkin lymphoma, salvage chemotherapy followed by auto-HCT is the standard of care. It is important to identify subpopulations who could benefit from allo-HCT. This retrospective analysis included 277 patients with rrHL who underwent first transplant with auto-HCT or allo-HCT between 2007-2017. Patients in the auto-HCT cohort (N = 218) were older, more likely to be in CR at the time of transplant and receive maintenance therapy post-transplant. Patients who underwent allo-HCT (N = 59) had a higher MSKCC relapse score. Factors associated with an inferior PFS and OS included early relapse, advanced stage, extranodal involvement and not achieving CR following salvage chemotherapy. After controlling for these 4 risk factors and MSKCC score, PFS (p = 0.112) or OS (p = 0.256) was not affected by the choice of transplant. In patients with ≥ 3 high risk features, the 4-year PFS was 51% in the allo-HCT vs. 39% (p = 0.107) in the auto-HCT cohort.

Abstract
Haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) achieves superior or at least comparable clinical outcomes to HLA-matched sibling donor transplantation (MSDT) in treating hematological malignancies. To define the underlying regulatory dynamics, we analyzed time courses of leukemia burden and immune abundance of haplo-SCT or MSDT from multiple dimension. First, we employed two nonirradiated leukemia mouse models which carried human AML-ETO or MLL-AF9 fusion gene to establish haplo-identical and major histocompatibility (MHC)-matched transplantation models and investigated the immune cell dynamic response during leukemia development in vivo. We found that haplo-matching the MHCs of leukemia cells with recipient mouse T cells prolonged leukemic mice survival and reduced leukemia burden. The stronger graft-versus-leukemia activity in haplo-SCT group mainly induced by decreased apoptosis and increased cytotoxic cytokine secretion including tumor necrosis factor-α, interferon-γ, pore-forming proteins and CD107a secreted by T cells or natural killer cells. Furthermore, we conducted a prospective clinical trial which enrolled 135 patients with t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia that displayed minimal residual disease before transplantation and underwent either haplo-SCT or MSDT. The results showed that the haplo-SCT slowed the kinetics of the leukemia burden in vivo and reduced the cumulative incidence of relapse compared with MSDT. Ex vivo experiments showed that, 1 year after transplantation, cytotoxic T lymphocytes from the haplo-SCT group had higher cytotoxicity than those from the MSDT group during the same period. Our results unraveled the role of immune cells in superior antileukemia effects of haplo-SCT compared with MSDT.

Abstract
Background Allogeneic stem cell transplantation from haploidentical donor using an unmanipulated graft and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is growing. Haploidentical transplantation with PT-Cy showed a major activity in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), reducing the relapse incidence. The most important predictive factor of survival and toxicity was disease status before transplantation, which was better in patients with well controlled disease. Methods We included 198 HL in complete (CR) or partial remission (PR) before transplantation. Sixty-five patients were transplanted from haploidentical donor and 133 from a HLA identical donor (both sibling and unrelated donors). Survival analysis was defined according to the EBMT criteria. Survival curves were generated by using Kaplan-Meier method and differences between groups were compared by the log rank test or by the log rank test for trend when appropriated. Results The PFS, OS, and RI were significantly better in patients in CR compared to PR (55% vs 29% p = 0.001, 74% vs 55% p = 0.03, 27% vs 55% p < 0.001, respectively). The 2-year PFS was significantly better for HAPLO than HLA-id (63% vs 37%, p = 0.03), without difference in OS. The 1-year NRM was not different. The 2-year relapse incidence (RI) was lower in the HAPLO group (24% vs 44%, p = 0.008). Patients in CR receiving haplo HSCT showed higher 2-year PFS and lower 2-year RI than those allografted with HLA-id donor (75% vs 47%, p < 0.001 and 11% vs 34%, p < 0.001, respectively). In multivariate analysis, donor type and disease status before transplantation were independent predictors of PFS as well as they predict the risk of relapse. Disease status at transplantation and age were independently associated to OS. Conclusions Nonetheless this is a retrospective study, limiting the wide applicability of results, data from this analysis suggest that HLA mismatch can induce a strong graft versus lymphoma effect leading to an enhanced PFS.

Abstract
T-cell replete Haploidentical stem cell transplantation (Haplo-SCT) with Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is an emerging therapeutic option for patients with advanced relapsed or refractory lymphoma. The feasibility of this platform is supported by several retrospective studies showing a toxicity profile that is improved relative to umbilical cord blood and mismatched unrelated donor (UD) transplant and comparable to matched unrelated donor transplant. In particular, cumulative incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is reduced after Haplo-SCT relative to UD and matched related donor (MRD) transplant thanks to PT-Cy employed as GVHD prophylaxis. This achievement, together with a similar incidence of acute GVHD and disease relapse, results in a promising advantage of Haplo-SCT in terms of relapse-free/GVHD free survival. Unmet needs of the Haplo-SCT platform are represented by the persistence of a not negligible rate of non-relapse mortality, especially due to infections and disease relapse. Future efforts are warranted in order to reduce life-threatening infections and to employ Halo-SCT with PT-Cy as a platform to build new immunotherapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Relapse/refractory Hodgkin lymphoma patients are still a clinical concern. Indeed, despite more effective first-line chemotherapy regimens and better stratification of unresponsive patients by clinical factors and use of early PET, roughly one-third of such patients need salvage chemotherapy and consolidation with high-dose chemotherapy. In this paper, the authors review the different salvage treatments, with special emphasis on newer combinations with brentuximab vedotin or check point inhibitors. The overall response rate is constantly increasing, with a complete remission rate approaching 80%. Functional response evaluation by PET imaging is a strong predictive factor of longer survival, and more sophisticated tools, such as detection of circulating tumour DNA, are emerging to refine the disease-status assessment after treatment. Consolidation by high-dose chemotherapy is still considered the standard of care in chemosensitive patients, leading to a high fraction of patients towards long-term disease control. Maintenance therapy with BV is now approved, reducing disease relapse/progression. An increasing number of Hodgkin lymphoma patients will be cured after first- and second-line therapy, and long-term toxicity needs to be continuously assessed and avoided.

Abstract
HLA haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) using posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is an alternative strategy when a matched sibling donor (MSD) is not available. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to compare the outcomes of MSD vs haplo-HCT. Eleven studies (1410 haplo-HCT and 6396 MSD recipients) were meta-analyzed. All studies were retrospective and high quality, and 9 were multicenter. Haplo-HCT was associated with ~50% lower risk of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (hazard ratio [HR], 0.55; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.41-0.74), but higher risk of nonrelapse mortality (HR, 1.36; 95% CI, 1.12-1.66). Relapse, survival, acute GVHD, and GVHD-free relapse-free survival were not significantly different between the groups. Deciphering the relative contribution of PT-Cy and HLA disparity to the observed outcome differences between the groups requires further research.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This article is intended to review recent trends and improvements in haploidentical transplantation to understand its current status and future direction. RECENT FINDINGS The noninferiority of haploidentical donors compared with other donor sources, including HLA-matched related or unrelated donors, has been demonstrated in patients with various hematological diseases. The development of graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis using posttransplant cyclophosphamide has effectively reduced transplant-related mortality caused by GVHD, graft rejection, and other related complications. Novel GVHD prophylactic methods and other supportive strategies are under intense investigation to reduce the risk of infections and retain graft-versus-leukemia/lymphoma effects after transplantation. SUMMARY Recent progress in haploidentical stem cell transplantation has broadened the availability of donor sources for patients with hematological diseases. It is important to compare and examine the impact of donor sources on transplant outcomes to achieve a better understanding about the appropriate donor choice for each patient.

Methods We designed a prospective genetically randomized study to evaluate donor options between acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients positive for measurable residual disease (MRD) pre-transplantation who underwent HIDT (n = 169) or MSDT (n = 39). Results The cumulative incidence of positive MRD post-transplantation was 26% (95% CI, 19–33%) and 44% (95% CI, 28–60%) for HIDT and MSDT, respectively (P = 0.043). Compared to the HIDT cohort, the MSDT cohort had a higher 3-year cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR; 47%, 95% CI, 31–63% vs. 23%, 95% CI, 17–29%; P = 0.006) and lower 3-year probability of leukemia-free survival (LFS; 43%, 95% CI, 27–59% vs. 65%, 95% CI, 58–72%; P = 0.023) and overall survival (OS; 46%, 95% CI, 30–62% vs. 68%, 95% CI, 61–75%; P = 0.039), without a difference in non-relapse-mortality (10%, 95% CI, 1–19% vs. 11%, 95% CI, 6–16%; P = 0.845). Multivariate analysis showed that HIDT is associated with a low CIR (HR = 0.364; 95% CI, 0.202–0.655; P = 0.001) and better LFS (HR = 0.414; 95% CI, 0.246–0.695; P = 0.001) and OS (HR = 0.380; 95% CI, 0.220–0.656; P = 0.001). Conclusions HIDT is better than MSDT in view of favorable anti-leukemia activity for patients with pre-transplantation MRD positive ALL. The current study paves the way to determine that haploidentical donors are the preferred choice regardless of available matched sibling donors in a subgroup population.

Cancer Commun (Lond) 2020; 40:93-104. [PMID: 32175698 PMCID: PMC7144412 DOI: 10.1002/cac2.12014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2020] [Accepted: 02/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Human leukocyte antigen‐identical sibling donor (ISD)‐hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) is a potentially curative treatment for high‐risk pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML). A haploidentical donor (HID) is readily available to almost all children. Previous studies have demonstrated that patients with HID‐SCT had similar outcomes compared to ISD‐SCT for pediatric and adult AML. However, the role of HID‐SCT in high‐risk pediatric AML is unclear. Methods To compare the overall survival of high‐risk AML children who underwent either HID‐SCT or ISD‐SCT, we analyzed 179 cases of high‐risk AML patients under 18 years of age treated with either ISD‐SCT (n = 23) or HID‐SCT (n = 156). Granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor plus anti‐thymocyte globulin‐based regimens were used for HID‐SCT. We also analyzed the subgroup data of AML patients at first complete remission (CR1) before SCT with known cytogenetic risk. Results The numbers of adverse cytogenetic risk recipients were 8 (34.8%) and 13 (18.8%) in the ISD‐SCT group and the HID‐SCT group, and the number of patients with disease status beyond CR1 were 6 (26.1%) and 14 (20.3%) in the two groups. The cumulative rates of grades II‐IV acute graft‐versus‐host disease (GVHD) were 13.0% in the ISD‐SCT group and 34.8% in the HID‐SCT group (P = 0.062), with a three‐year cumulative rates of chronic GVHD at 14.1% and 34.9%, respectively (P = 0.091). The relapse rate in the ISD‐SCT group was significantly higher than that in the HID‐SCT group (39.1% vs. 16.4%, P = 0.027); with non‐relapse mortality at 0.0% and 10.6% (P = 0.113), respectively. The three‐year overall survival rates were 73.0% for the ISD‐SCT group and 74.6% for the HID‐SCT group (P = 0.689). In subgroup analysis, the three‐year relapse rate in the ISD‐SCT group was higher than that in the HID‐SCT group (50.0% vs. 9.2%, P = 0.001) and the three‐year DFS in the ISD‐SCT group (50.0%) was lower than that in the HID‐SCT group (81.2%) (P = 0.021). Conclusions Unmanipulated HID‐SCT achieved DFS and OS outcomes comparable to those of ISD‐SCT for high‐risk pediatric AML patients with potentially higher rate but manageable GVHD.

Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplantation With Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide Therapy vs Other Donor Transplantations in Adults With Hematologic Cancers: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis. JAMA Oncol 2019; 5:1739-1748. [PMID: 31621796 PMCID: PMC6802371 DOI: 10.1001/jamaoncol.2019.3541] [Citation(s) in RCA: 71] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2019] [Accepted: 06/25/2019] [Indexed: 01/19/2023]
Abstract
Importance Use of haploidentical (HAPLO) stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide is rapidly increasing in adults with hematologic cancers. However, its specific role compared with other transplant strategies has yet to be identified. Objective To synthesize the existing evidence regarding outcomes of stem cell transplantations comparing HAPLO stem cell transplantation and posttransplant cyclophosphamide therapy with transplantations from matched related donors (MRDs), matched unrelated donors (MUDs), or mismatched unrelated donors (MMUDs). Data Sources PubMed, Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, and meeting abstracts were searched for the key words haploidentical and cyclophosphamide from inception through March 1, 2019. Study Selection Studies comparing HAPLO stem cell transplantation and posttransplant cyclophosphamide therapy with transplantations from other donors in adults with hematologic cancers were eligible for meta-analysis. Data Extraction and Synthesis Pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% CIs were calculated using a random-effects model. Main Outcomes and Measures Main outcomes were all-cause mortality, nonrelapse mortality, and relapse. Results A total of 30 studies including 22 974 participants were analyzed. HAPLO stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide therapy was associated with increased all-cause mortality compared with MRDs (OR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.05-1.30), similar all-cause mortality compared with MUDs (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.96-1.18), and reduced all-cause mortality compared with MMUDs (OR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.61-0.92). Regarding nonrelapse mortality, HAPLO stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide was associated with worse outcomes compared with MRDs (OR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.04-1.40) but better outcomes compared with MUDs (OR, 0.75; 95% CI, 0.61-0.92) and MMUDs (OR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.25-1.02). In terms of relapse, HAPLO stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide was associated with similar outcome compared with MRDs (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.86-1.17) and MMUDs (OR, 1.06; 95% CI, 0.77-1.47) but showed increased relapse compared with MUDs (OR, 1.20; 95% CI, 1.03-1.40). Conclusions and Relevance Results of this meta-analysis suggest that MRDs, if available, remain the optimal donors regarding mortality and HAPLO stem cell transplantation with posttransplant cyclophosphamide may be preferred over MMUDs. Prospective comparisons with MUDs are needed.

Abstract
Granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF), a growth factor for neutrophils, has been successfully used for stem cell mobilization and T cell immune tolerance induction. The establishment of G-CSF-primed unmanipulated haploidentical blood and marrow transplantation (The Beijing Protocol) has achieved outcomes for the treatment of acute leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and severe aplastic anemia with haploidentical allografts comparable to those of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donor transplantation. Currently, G-CSF-mobilized bone marrow and/or peripheral blood stem cell sources have been widely used in unmanipulated haploidentical transplant settings. In this review, we summarize the roles of G-CSF in inducing T cell immune tolerance. We discuss the recent advances in the Beijing Protocol, mainly focusing on strategies that have been used to improve transplant outcomes in cases of poor graft function, virus infections, and relapse. The application of G-CSF-primed allografts in other haploidentical modalities is also discussed.

Abstract
Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients with relapsed or refractory disease may benefit from allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), but many lack a matched sibling donor (MSD). Herein, we compare outcomes of 2 reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) HCT platforms in cHL: T cell-replete related donor haploidentical (haplo) HCT with a post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based approach versus an MSD/calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-based approach. The study included 596 adult patients who underwent a first RIC allo-HCT for cHL between 2008 and 2016 using either a haplo-PTCy (n = 139) or MSD/CNI-based (n = 457) approach. Overall survival (OS) was the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints included acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD), nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse/progression, and progression-free survival (PFS). On multivariate analysis, there was no significant difference between haplo/PTCy and MDS/CNI-based approaches in terms of OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1.07; 95% confidence interval [CI], .79 to 1.45; P = .66) or PFS (HR, .86; 95% CI, .68 to 1.10; P = .22). Haplo/PTCy was associated with a significantly higher risk of grades II to IV aGVHD (odds ratio [OR], 1.73, 95% CI, 1.16 to 2.59; P = .007), but the risk of grades III to IV aGVHD was not significantly different between the 2 cohorts (OR, .61; 95% CI, .29 to 1.27; P = .19). The haplo/PTCy platform provided a significant reduction in cGVHD risk (HR, .45; 95% CI, .32 to .64; P < .001), and a significant reduction in relapse risk (HR, .74; 95% CI, .56 to .97; P = .03). There was a statistically nonsignificant trend toward higher NRM with a haplo/PTCy approach (HR, 1.65; 95% CI, .99 to 2.77; P = .06). Haplo/PTCy-based approaches are associated with lower incidences of cGVHD and relapse, with PFS and OS outcomes comparable with MSD/CNI-based approaches. There was a leaning toward higher NRM with a haplo/PTCy-based platform. These data show that haplo/PTCy allo-HCT in cHL results in survival comparable with MSD/CNI-based allo-HCT.

Abstract
Allogeneic stem cell transplant (alloSCT) is a current treatment option for patients with refractory/relapsed classic Hodgkin lymphoma (CHL), including those who have failed an autologous transplantation. We performed a retrospective multicenter analysis of 113 patients (median age 28 years; range 14-56; 54% males) with refractory/relapsed (R/R) CHL who had undergone alloSCT in Argentina. Kaplan-Meier was used to estimate overall (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Relapse rate (RR) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) were estimated with cumulative incidence analysis. Disease status at transplant was complete remission (CR) in 39%, partial remission (PR) in 44%, and stable/progressed disease (S/PD) in 17% of the patients. Donor type was matched related (MRD) in 60%, unrelated (URD) in 19%, and haploidentical (HID) in 21% of the patients. OS and PFS at 2 years were 43% and 27%, respectively, for all the cohort. In the univariate analysis, patients in CR showed better OS (p ≤ 0.001) and PFS (p ≤ 0.001), and lower NRM (p = 0.04). HID had better PFS (p = 0.04) and lower RR (p = 0.02). In the multivariate analysis, CR showed a significant impact on OS and PFS, and HID on PFS. AlloSCT is a feasible procedure in patients with CHL. Those in CR at the time of the transplant had better outcomes. Haploidentical transplantation is associated with better PFS in these patients with poor prognosis.

Influence of Donor Type (Sibling versus Matched Unrelated Donor versus Haploidentical Donor) on Outcomes after Clofarabine-Based Reduced-Intensity Conditioning Allograft for Myeloid Malignancies. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2019; 25:1465-1471.

Abstract
Clofarabine-based reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens are well-established schedules for allograft in patients with myeloid malignancies. A retrospective study was conducted including all adults allografted in our department with such a regimen and disease with the aim to assess whether or not the donor type (matched sibling [MSD], matched unrelated [MUD], or haploidentical [haplo]) impacted outcomes. Between October 2009 and February 2018, 118 patients met the inclusion criteria. Thirty-six, 55, and 27 patients received a graft from an MSD, MUD, or haplo donor, respectively. Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) were the source of graft for all patients. The median age of the entire cohort was 62 years (range, 20 to 73), and the median follow-up was 31 months (range, 4.5 to 106). All patients engrafted except 1 haplo recipient. Neutrophils (>.5 × 109/L) and platelets (50 × 109/L) recoveries were significantly delayed in the haplo group (P = .0003 and P < .0001) compared with MSD and MUD. Acute grades II to IV or III to IV graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) incidences were similar between the 3 groups as well as the incidence of moderate or severe chronic GVHD. Also, similar 2-year overall survival (OS; 64.7% versus 73.9% versus 60.2%, P = .39), disease-free survival (DFS; 57.7% versus 70.9% versus and 53.6%, P = .1), and GVHD relapse-free survival (37.9% versus 54.3% versus 38.9%, P = .23) were observed between MSD versus MUD versus haplo groups. The same was true when considering only acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cases. In multivariate analysis the type of donor remained independent of outcomes in this series, whereas myelodysplastic syndrome (versus AML), high disease risk index, and older donor (≥50 years) were associated with lower OS and DFS. These data suggest that haplo donors are an acceptable alternative for patients receiving a clofarabine-based RIC PBSC allograft for myeloid malignancies who lack an MSD or a MUD.

Thiotepa, Busulfan, and Fludarabine Conditioning Regimen in T Cell-Replete HLA-Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation. Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 2019; 25:1407-1415.

Abstract
We report the outcomes of 51 patients who underwent unmanipulated haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) and antithymocyte globulin (ATG), from peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) or bone marrow, after receipt of a TBF (thiotepa, busulfan, and fludarabine) conditioning regimen. Their median age was 55 years (range, 16 to 72 years). Hematologic diagnoses included acute leukemias (n = 31), lymphoid neoplasm (n = 12), myeloproliferative neoplasm (n = 5), and myelodysplastic syndromes (n = 3). Thirty-seven patients (73%) were in complete remission. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine and mycophenolate for all patients, associated with ATG in 39 patients (76.5%). The median time to neutrophil engraftment was 17 days (range, 12 to 34 days). The cumulative incidences of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute GVHD were 27.5% and 14%, respectively. In patients receiving a PBSC graft and ATG prophylaxis, grade II-IV aGVHD occurred in 16% of patients. The use of ATG and a lower thiotepa dose (5 mg/kg versus 10 mg/kg) were associated with a reduced cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute GVHD (P = .03 and .005, respectively). The 2-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was 29% and was significantly reduced to 13% with the lower thiotepa dose (P = .002). After a median follow-up of 25 months (range, 12 to 62 months), the cumulative incidences of nonrelapse mortality, relapse, overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GFRFS) were 20%, 22.5%, 67%, 58%, and 51%, respectively. Pretransplantation disease status (complete remission versus others) was the main factor associated with OS, DFS, and GFRFS. In conclusion, the TBF conditioning regimen is an appealing platform in the haplo-HSCT setting with PT-Cy in terms of engraftment rate, toxicity, and disease control. We found no benefit of a thiotepa dose of 10 mg/kg compared with a dose of 5 mg/kg. ATG reduced the risk of acute GVHD without comprising outcomes.

Abstract
Currently, haploidentical donor has been an alternative source of stem cell allografts for patients who have no human leukocyte antigen-matched sibling donor or unrelated donors. A number of studies indicated that treating hematological malignancy patients with haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) could achieve comparable outcomes to those who underwent matched sibling donor transplantation (MSDT). In recent years, more and more evidence support the notion that haploidentical allografts may have a stronger graft-vs-leukemia (GVL) effect than MSDT. In this review, we summarized the transplant outcomes of haplo-SCT and MSDT, mainly focusing on the subgroup of patients who will benefit from the stronger GVL effects of haplo-SCT compared with MSDT. We also offered strategies of how to translate the strong antileukemia activity of haploidentical allograft into superior survival. Future directions of GVL effects in haplo-SCT settings were also discussed.
