Abstract
Haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) using post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (post-Cy) is considered a reasonable therapeutic option for patients who lack matched donor or who urgently need transplant procedure due to high risk disease. We analyzed the results of haplo-SCT performed in years 2018-2023. Eighty one patients (46 males) at median age of 52 years underwent haplo-SCT using peripheral blood as a stem cell source in most cases. Indications included hematological malignancies (acute leukemias in 88% of cases). In 25 cases (31%) transplantation was performed in relapsed/refractory disease. Majority of patients (61%) presented with very high and high disease risk index (DRI). Conditioning regimens were as follows: nonmyeloablative - 46 cases (57%), myeloablative - in 18 (22%) and reduced intensity - 17(20%). 90% of patients engrafted. All patients received unified immunosuppressive treatment (post-Cy/TAC/MMF). Median follow-up time was 12 months The cumulative incidence of acute and chronic GVHD was 37.5% and 37.6%, respectively. Estimated 2-year overall survival (OS) was 43.1% and donor's age was the only factor influencing survival. The 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) was 42.5%, whereas relapse incidence (RI) - 35%. The cumulative incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 44% and was mostly due to infections. Haplo-SCT is a feasible treatment option for hematological patients. Younger donor improves post-transplant survival. Strategies to reduce infection-related mortality and relapse rate remain a challenge.

Abstract
Genomic loss of mismatched human leukocyte antigen (HLA loss) is one of the most vital immune escape mechanisms of leukemic cells after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, the methods currently used for HLA loss analysis have some shortcomings. Limited literature has been published, especially in lymphoid malignancies. This study aims to evaluate the incidences, risk factors of HLA loss, and clinical outcomes of HLA loss patients. In all, 160 patients undergoing partially mismatched related donor (MMRD) transplantation from 18 centers in China were selected for HLA loss analysis with the next-generation sequencing (NGS)-based method, which was validated by HLA-KMR. Variables of the prognostic risk factors for HLA loss or HLA loss–related relapse were identified with the logistic regression or the Fine and Gray regression model. An HLA loss detection system, HLA-CLN [HLA chimerism for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis by NGS], was successfully developed. Forty (25.0%) patients with HLA loss were reported, including 27 with myeloid and 13 with lymphoid malignancies. Surprisingly, 6 of those 40 patients did not relapse. The 2-year cumulative incidences of HLA loss (22.7% vs 22.0%, P = 0.731) and HLA loss–related relapse (18.4% vs 20.0%, P = 0.616) were similar between patients with myeloid and lymphoid malignancies. The number of HLA mismatches (5/10 vs <5/10) was significantly associated with HLA loss in the whole cohort [odds ratio (OR): 3.15, P = 0.021] and patients with myeloid malignancies (OR: 3.94, P = 0.021). A higher refined-disease risk index (OR: 6.91, P = 0.033) and donor–recipient ABO incompatibility (OR: 4.58, P = 0.057) contributed to HLA loss in lymphoid malignancies. To sum up, HLA-CLN could overcome the limitations of HLA-KMR and achieve a better HLA coverage for more patients. The clinical characteristics and outcomes were similar in patients with HLA loss between myeloid and lymphoid malignancies. In addition, the results suggested that a patient with HLA loss might not always relapse.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a 2-HLA-haplotype-mismatched family donor for posttransplant relapse: a prospective phase I/II study. Bone Marrow Transplant 2020; 56:70-83. [PMID: 32564055 DOI: 10.1038/s41409-020-0980-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2019] [Revised: 05/20/2020] [Accepted: 06/12/2020] [Indexed: 11/08/2022]
Abstract
HLA haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), i.e., HSCT from a 1-HLA-haplotype-mismatched family donor, has been successfully performed even as a second transplantation for posttransplant relapse. Is the haploidentical the limit of HLA mismatches in HSCT? In order to explore the possibility of HLA-mismatched HSCT from family donors beyond haploidentical relatives, we conducted a prospective phase I/II study of 2-HLA-haplotype-mismatched HSCT (2-haplo-mismatch HSCT). We enrolled 30 patients with posttransplant relapse (acute myeloid leukemia: 18, acute lymphoblastic leukemia: 11, non-Hodgkin lymphoma: 1). 2-haplo-mismatch HSCT was performed as the second to sixth transplantations. The donors were siblings (n = 12), cousins (n = 16), and second cousins (n = 2). The conditioning regimen consisted of fludarabine, cytarabine, melphalan, low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin, and 3 Gy of total body irradiation. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of tacrolimus, methylprednisolone, and mycophenolate mofetil. All patients achieved neutrophil engraftment, except for a case of early death. The cumulative incidences of grades II-IV and III-IV acute GVHD were 36.7% and 16.7%, respectively. The overall survival at 1 year, relapse, and non-relapse mortality rates was 30.1%, 38.9%, and 44.3%, respectively. Considering the poor prognosis of posttransplant relapse, 2-haplo-mismatch HSCT can be an alternative option in a second or third transplantation.

[Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplant: How to choose the best donor? Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. Bull Cancer 2019; 107:S72-S84.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been growing steadily since 2012. The SFGM-TC has twice published guidelines concerning T-cell repleted haploidentical grafts with high dose cyclophosphamide post-transplantation. The 2013 workshop recommended using the non-myeloablative Baltimore protocol with bone marrow and developed prospective protocols to evaluate these transplantations. The 2015 workshop reported improved results of reduced conditioning regimens in Hodgkin's lymphoma and intensive conditioning in myeloid hemopathies, and a similar outcome with 10/10 HLA matched donor with the same disease-risk score thus raising the question of the qualifier "alternative" for haploidentical transplants. The current work concerns the criteria for selecting the donor. The main criterion remains the absence of anti-HLA antibodies directed against the donor present in the recipient sera (DSA - Donor Specific Antibodies). In case of DSA and in the absence of an alternative donor, desensitization protocols exist. The other criteria are impossible to prioritize: age, sex, CMV, and blood type. The degree of relatedness and the number of HLA incompatibilities do not seem to be a criterion of choice. The 'ideal' donor would be a young man, CMV-matched, without major ABO incompatibility with a marrow transplant. There is insufficient data for the KIR-ligand and NIMA/NIPA mismatch. Peripheral stem cell grafts appear to yield more acute GVHD than bone marrow grafts after intensive conditioning, but with comparable survival rates. Based on the literature review, the comparison of haploidentical with unrelated donors encourages inclusion in existing national protocols randomizing these different donors.

Abstract
Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a major complication following unmanipulated haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). We aimed to identify the risk factors for cGVHD in patients who underwent anti-thymocyte globulin-based haplo-HSCT for acute myeloid leukemia (n = 280). The diagnosis of cGVHD was in accordance with the National Institutes of Health consensus criteria. A total of 169 patients suffered from cGVHD. The patients who had 3 loci mismatched had a higher 8-year incidence of cGVHD (total, 66.0% vs. 53.7%, P = 0.031; moderate to severe, 42.4% vs. 30.1%, P = 0.036) than the patients who had 1 to 2 loci mismatched. The patients who had maternal donors had a higher 8-year incidence of moderate to severe cGVHD (49.2% vs. 32.9%, P = 0.024) compared with the patients who had other donors. The patients who had grades III to IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) had higher 8-year incidence of cGVHD (total, 88.0% vs. 50.4%, P < 0.001; moderate to severe, 68.0% vs. 27.0%, P < 0.001) compared with the patients without aGVHD. In multivariate analysis, grades III to IV aGVHD was the only independent risk factor for cGVHD. Thus, further interventions should be considered in patients with severe aGVHD to prevent cGVHD.

Abstract
The number of HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplants continues to increase worldwide due to recent improvements in outcomes, allowing more patients with hematological malignancies and non-malignant disorders to benefit from this procedure and have a chance to cure their disease. Despite these encouraging results, questions remain as multiple donors are usually available for transplantation, and choosing the best HLA-haploidentical donor for transplantation remains a challenge. Several approaches to haploidentical transplantation have been developed over time and, based on the graft received, can be grouped as follows: T-cell depleted haploidentical transplants, either complete or partial, or with T-cell replete grafts, performed with post-transplant cyclophosphamide-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, or G-CSF-primed bone marrow graft and enhanced GVHD prophylaxis. Carefully selecting the donor can help optimize transplant outcomes for recipients of haploidentical donor transplants. Variables usually considered in the donor selection include presence of donor-specific antibodies in the recipient, donor age, donor/recipient gender and ABO combinations, and immunogenic variables, such as natural killer cell alloreactivity or KIR haplotype. Here we provide a comprehensive review of available evidence for selecting haploidentical donors for transplantation, and summarize the recommendations from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) on donor selection for different transplant platforms.

Abstract
Recent advances in haploidentical stem cell transplantation have enabled the use of human leukocyte antigen-half matched related donors for allogeneic stem cell transplantation and helped overcome one of the most important limitation in transplantation, which is donor availability, especially for the non-Caucasian population and mixed race individuals, extending allogeneic stem cell transplant for almost all patients in need. As many multiple potential related donors may now be available, it is increasingly clear that not all of these donors can provide equivalent transplant outcomes. Here we review the current available evidence of donor characteristics known to be associated with transplant outcomes for different types of haploidentical transplants using unmanipulated grafts (with post-transplant cyclophosphamide-based graft-vs-host prophylaxis and G-CSF and anti-thymocyte globulin approach) as well as modified grafts (with either selective or complete T-cell depletion). While various platforms use haploidentical donors, graft manipulation and approach to prevent graft-vs-host post-transplant may impact on donor selection and transplant outcomes.
