Abstract
PURPOSE Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a disease of older patients. Progress in allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) allowed the delivery of allo-HCT to older patients. We assessed changes over time in transplant characteristics and outcomes in patients with AML ages 65 years and above. PATIENTS AND METHODS We identified 7,215 patients with AML (median age 68 years, range 65-80) allografted between 2000 and 2021 in first complete remission (CR1; 64%), second or subsequent remission (CR2+; 14%), or active disease (22%). RESULTS Median follow-up was 40 months. The 3-year cumulative relapse incidence (RI) gradually and significantly decreased from 37% to 31%, then to 30% (P = 0.001) over the three time periods (2000-2009; 2010-2014; 2015-2021), whereas nonrelapse mortality (NRM) decreased from 31% and 31% to 27% (P = 0.003). The 3-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) gradually and significantly improved from 32% to 38%, and then to 44% (P = 0.001) and from 37% to 42%, and then to 49% (P = 0.001), respectively. In multivariate analysis, significant improvement in the RI, LFS, and OS were noted after 2015, whereas NRM was not significantly affected. This improvement was observed regardless of disease status at transplant. CONCLUSIONS In older patients with AML, we observed an impressive improvement over time in posttransplant outcomes, mostly attributed to decreased RI rather than decreased NRM, and regardless of disease status at transplant. These large-scale, real-world data can serve as a benchmark for future studies in this setting and indicate that the opportunity for transplant for the elderly should be mandatory and no longer an option.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is recommended for core-binding factor mutated (CBF) AML patients achieving second complete remission (CR2). However, approximately 20% of patients may relapse after transplant and donor preference remains unclear. We compared in this EBMT global multicenter registry-based analysis the allo-HCT outcomes using either haploidentical (Haplo), matched siblings donors (MSD), or 10/10 matched unrelated donors (MUD). Data from 865 de novo adult CBF AML patients in CR2 receiving allo-HCT in 227 EBMT centers from 2010 to 2022 were analyzed, in which 329 MSD, 374 MUD, and 162 Haplo-HCTs were included. For the entire cohort, 503 (58%) patients were inv(16)/CBFB-MYH11 and 362 patients (42%) were t(8;21)/RUNX1-RUNX1T1 AML. On multivariate analysis, Haplo-HCT was associated with a lower Relapse Incidence (RI) compared to either MSD (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.56, 95% CI 0.32-0.97; p < .05) or MUD (HR = 0.57, 95% CI: 0.33-0.99, p < .05). No significant difference was observed among the 3 types of donors on LFS, OS and GRFS. CBF-AML with t(8;21) was associated with both higher RI (HR = 1.79, 95% CI 1.3-2.47; p < .01) and higher NRM (HR = 1.58, 95% CI 1.1-2.27; p < .01) than CBF-AML with inv(16), which led to worse LFS, OS and GRFS. To conclude, for CBF-AML patients in CR2, Haplo-HCTs were associated with a lower RI compared to MSD and MUD allo-HCTs. There was no difference on LFS, OS or GRFS. CBF AML patients with inv(16) had a better progonosis than those with t(8;21) after allo-HCT in CR2.

Abstract
Post-transplant cyclophosphamide plus calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)(tacrolimus or cyclosporine A) plus mycophenolate mofetil (PTCy/TAC or CSA/MMF) and anti-thymocyte globulin plus CNI (tacrolimus or cyclosporine A) plus methotrexate (ATG/TAC or CSA/MTX) are common graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimens. We compared the two regimens in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing allogeneic transplantation from matched siblings or unrelated donors. 402 received PTCy/TAC or CSA/MMF and 5648 received ATG/TAC or CSA/MTX. Patients in the PTCy-based group were younger (48.7 vs. 51.5 years, p = 0.024) and there was a higher frequency of patient cytomegalovirus seropositivity and female donor to male patient combination in this group (77.8% vs. 71.8%, p = 0.009 and 18.4% vs. 14.4%, p = 0.029, respectively). More patients in the PTCy-based group received reduced-intensity conditioning (51.5% vs. 41%, p < 0.0001). No differences were observed in the incidence of acute GVHD grade II-IV and III-IV (21.2% vs. 20.4%, p = 0.92 and 8.1% vs. 6%, p = 0.1) or 2-year total and extensive chronic GVHD (33.7% vs. 30%, p = 0.09 and 10.7% vs. 11.2%, p = 0.81) between the groups. In the multivariate analysis, all transplant outcomes did not differ between the groups. PTCy/CNI/MMF and ATG/CNI/MTX are alternative regimens for GVHD prophylaxis in AML patients.

Abstract
We compared the outcomes of haploidentical stem cell transplantation (HaploHSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in 719 patients (pts) with primary refractory (PR) / first relapse (Rel) secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) (n=129) versus those of de novo AML (n=590), transplanted between 2010 and 2022. A higher percentage of pts with sAML versus de novo AML had PR disease (73.6% vs. 58.6%) (p=0.002). In 81.4% of sAML pts, the antecedent hematological disorder was myelodysplastic syndrome. Engraftment was 83.5% vs. 88.4% in sAML and de novo AML, respectively (p=0.13). In multivariate analysis HaploHSCT outcomes did not differ significantly between the groups; non-relapse mortality (NRM) hazard ratio (HR) =1.38 (95% CI 0.96-1.98, p=0.083), relapse incidence (RI) HR= 0.68 (95% CI 0.4.7.-1.00, p=0.051). The HRs for leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) were 0.99 (95% CI 0.76-1.28, p=0.94), 0.99 (95% CI 0.77-1.29, p=0.97) and 0.99 (95% CI 0.77-1.27, p=0.94), respectively. We conclude that outcomes of HaploHSCT with PTCy are not different for PR/Rel sAML in comparison to PR/Rel de novo AML, a finding of major clinical importance.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For the majority of patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) an allogeneic stem cell transplant (SCT) in first complete remission (CR) is preferred. However, whether the number of courses required to achieve CR has a prognostic impact is unclear. It is unknown which factors remain important in patients requiring more than one course of induction to attain remission. METHODS This Acute Leukaemia Working Party study from the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation identified adults who received an allograft in first CR from either a fully matched sibling or 10/10 or 9/10 human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-matched unrelated donor (HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-DR, or HLA-DQ). Univariate and multivariate analyses were undertaken to identify the prognostic impact of one or two courses of induction to attain CR. RESULTS A total of 4995 patients were included with 3839 (77%) patients attaining a CR following one course of induction chemotherapy (IND1), and 1116 patients requiring two courses (IND2) to attain CR. IND2 as compared to IND1 was a poor prognostic factor in a univariate analysis and remained so in a multivariate Cox model, resulting in an increased hazard ratio of relapse (1.38; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.16-1.64; p = .0003) and of death (1.27; 95% CI, 1.09-1.47; p = .002). Adverse prognostic factors in a multivariate analysis of the outcomes of patients requiring IND2 included age, FLT3-ITD, adverse cytogenetics, and performance status. Pretransplant measurable residual disease retained a prognostic impact regardless of IND1 or IND2. CONCLUSION Initial response to chemotherapy as determined by number of courses to attain CR, retained prognostic relevance even following SCT in CR.

Abstract
Older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) refractory to initial or reinduction chemotherapy have a dismal prognosis if they do not undergo hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HCT). However, data assessing HCT outcomes from different donors are scarce. We evaluated results from a retrospective analysis on patients aged ≥70 years, with AML not in remission who received an allogeneic HCT from HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD), HLA-10/10 matched unrelated donor (MUD), or T-cell replete haploidentical (Haplo) donor, from 2010 to 2021, reported to the ALWP-EBMT database. A total of 360 patients (median age 72 years, range 70-79) were included in the analysis. Median follow-up for the entire population was 35.5 months. Donors were MSD (n = 58), 10/10 HLA-MUD (n = 228), and Haplo (n = 74). A total of 213 (59.2%) patients were primary induction failures, while 147 (40.8%) were in first or subsequent relapse. Graft source was peripheral blood in 92% of the patients. Patients transplanted from Haplo donors more frequently received marrow grafts (p < 0.01) and presented the combination female donor to male recipient (p < 0.01). The overall 2-year rates of overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival (LFS) were: 62.4% (95% CI 47.2-74.3) and 47.6% (95% CI 33.1-60.8) for MSD, 43% (95% CI 35.8-49.9), and 37.5% (95% CI 30.7-44.4) for MUD, and 25.9% (95% CI 15.8-37.2), and 26.5% (95% CI 16.3-37.8) for recipients of Haplo transplants. The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (RI) was slightly lower for Haplo recipients at 29.6% (95% CI 19-40.9), for MUD it was 30.2% (95% CI 23.9-36.7), and for MSD 34.9% (95% CI 22-48.2); counterbalanced by a higher incidence of non-relapse mortality (NRM) of 43.9% (95% CI 31.6-55.6) for Haplo recipients, 32.2% (95% CI 26-33.1) for MUD and 17.5% (95% CI 8.4-29.3) for MSD. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 35.3% (95% CI 22.3-48.5) for MSD, 29.6% (95% CI 23.2-36.2) for MUD, and 19.2% (95% CI 10.7-29.6) for Haplo patients. In the multivariate model, compared to the referent group of MSD recipients, the risk of NRM was higher among patients transplanted from Haplo donors ([hazard ratio] HR 5.1, 95% CI 2.23-11.61, p < 0.001) and MUD (HR 3.21, 95% CI 1.48-0.6.94, p = 0.003). Furthermore, both Haplo and MUD were associated with inferior OS, (HR 3.6, 95% CI 1.98-0.6.56, p < 0.001, and HR 2.3, 95% CI 1.37-0.3.88, p = 0.002, respectively), and LFS (HR 2.24, 95% CI 1.31-0.3.84, p = 0.003, and HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.04-0.2.60, p = 0.034, respectively). Patients transplanted from Haplo donors were also associated with worse GFRS (HR 1.72, 95% CI 1.07-2.77, p:0.025) compared with MSD patients. Older adult AML patients with active disease transplanted from MSD experienced prolonged OS and LFS compared to 10/10 MUD and Haplo due to lower NRM. Prospective clinical trials are warranted.

Abstract
There is a paucity of information on how to select the most appropriate unrelated donor (UD) in hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). We retrospectively analyzed the characteristics of 10/10 matched unrelated donors (MUD) and 9/10 mismatched unrelated donors (MMUD) that may affect transplant outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first or second complete remission (CR1 or CR2). The primary endpoint was leukemia-free survival (LFS). Overall, 1011 patients were included with a median age of 54 years (range, 18-77). Donors had a median age of 29 years (range, 18-64); 304 (30%) were females of which 150 (15% of whole group) were donors to male recipients, and 621 (61%) were MUDs; 522 (52%) had negative cytomegalovirus (CMV-neg) serostatus of which 189 (19%) were used for CMV-neg recipients. Donor age older than 30 years had a negative impact on relapse (HR 1.38; 95% CI 1.06-1.8), LFS (HR 1.4; 95% CI 1.12-1.74), overall survival (HR 1.45; 95% CI 1.14-1.85) and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (HR 1.29; 95% CI 1.07-1.56). Additionally, CMV-neg donor for CMV-neg recipient was associated with improved LFS (HR 0.74; 95% CI 0.55-0.99). The use of MMUD and female donors for male recipients did not significantly impact any transplant outcomes. For patients undergoing HSCT from an UD with PTCy for AML, donor age < 30 years significantly improves survival. In this context, donor age might be prioritized over HLA match considerations. In addition, CMV neg donors are preferable for CMV neg recipients. However, further research is needed to validate and refine these recommendations.

Abstract
Secondary acute lymphoblastic leukemia (s-ALL) comprises up to 10% of ALL patients. However, data regarding s-ALL outcomes is limited. To answer what is the role of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) in s-ALL, a matched-pair analysis in a 1:2 ratio was conducted to compare outcomes between s-ALL and de novo ALL (dn-ALL) patients reported between 2000-2021 to the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry. Among 9720 ALL patients, 351 (3.6%) were s-ALL, of which 80 were in first complete remission (CR1) with a known precedent primary diagnosis 58.8% solid tumor (ST), 41.2% hematological diseases (HD). The estimated 2-year relapse incidence (RI) was 19.1% (95%CI: 11-28.9), leukemia-free survival (LFS) 52.1% (95%CI: 39.6-63.2), non-relapse mortality (NRM) 28.8% (95%CI: 18.4-40), GvHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) 39.4% (95%CI: 27.8-50.7), and overall survival (OS) 60.8% (95%CI: 47.9-71.4), and did not differ between ST and HD patients. In a matched-pair analysis, there was no difference in RI, GRFS, NRM, LFS, or OS between s-ALL and dn-ALL except for a higher incidence of chronic GvHD (51.9% vs. 31.4%) in s-ALL. To conclude, patients with s-ALL who received HCT in CR1 have comparable outcomes to patients with dn-ALL.

Abstract
In the 2022 European LeukemiaNet classification, patients with nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1)-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML) were classified in the adverse-risk category in the presence of high-risk cytogenetics (CG). Nonetheless, the impact of various CG aberrations on posttransplant outcomes remains to be unraveled. This registry study analyzed adult patients with NPM1-mutated de novo AML who underwent their first allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in the first complete remission from 2005 to 2021. A total of 3275 patients were identified, 2782 had normal karyotype, 493 had chromosomal aberrations including 160 with adverse-risk CG, 72 patients had complex karyotype (CK), and 66 monosomal karyotype (MK). Overall, 2377 (73%) patients had FLT3-ITD. On univariate analysis, only FLT3-ITD, minimal/measurable residual disease (MRD) positivity and CK, but not abnormal CG, affected posttransplant outcomes. On multivariable analysis, CK was associated with lower overall survival (OS) (hazard ratio [HR] 1.72, p = .009). In the subgroup of 493 patients with aberrant CG, the 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) and OS were around 61% and 68%, respectively. On multivariable analysis for this subgroup, CK and MRD positivity were associated with increased risk of relapse (HR 1.7, p = .025; and 1.99, p = .003 respectively) and worse LFS (HR 1.62, p = .018; and 1.64, p = .011 respectively) while FLT3-ITD, MK, or other CG abnormalities had no significant effect. Importantly, CK negatively affected OS (HR 1.91, p = .002). In the first complete remission transplant setting, CK was found as the only cytogenetic risk factor for worse outcomes in NPM1-mutated AML. Nevertheless, even for this subgroup, a significant proportion of patients can achieve long-term posttransplant survival.

Abstract
There is a paucity of information to guide selection of the most suitable stem cell donor in haploidentical (Haplo) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). For this reason, we conducted a retrospective analysis in order to evaluate the impact of Haplo family donors characteristics on HSCT outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who received graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). The primary endpoint was GvHD-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS). Overall, 2200 patients were included. The median age of donors was 37 years (range, 8-71), 820 (37%) were females, including 458 (21%) who were used for male recipients. Additionally, 1631 (74%) donated peripheral blood (PB). Multivariable analysis identified certain donor-related risk factors with a detrimental impact on transplant outcomes. The use of PB, older donor´s age and female donors to male recipients negatively affected GRFS. Donor´s age and female donor to male recipient combination also affected non-relapse mortality, leukemia-free survival and overall survival. In conclusion, donor-related variables significantly influence AML patient outcomes following Haplo-HSCT with PTCy. When possible, younger donors and male donors for male recipients should be prioritized. The use of BM can additionally prevent GVHD.

Abstract
The use of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis is not established after reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from fully matched donors. This was a randomized, open-label, multicenter, phase 2 trial. All patients received a RIC regimen with fludarabine, intravenous busulfan for 2 days (Flu-Bu2), and a peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) graft from a matched related or 10/10 HLA-matched unrelated donor. Patients were randomly assigned to receive anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) 5 mg/kg plus standard GVHD prophylaxis or PTCy 50 mg/kg/d at days +3 and +4 plus standard GVHD prophylaxis. The primary endpoint was the composite endpoint of GVHD- and relapse-free survival (GRFS) at 12 months after HSCT. Eighty-nine patients were randomly assigned to receive either PTCy or control prophylaxis with ATG. At 12 months, disease-free survival was 65.9% in the PTCy group and 67.6% in the ATG group (P = 0.99). Cumulative incidence of relapse, non-relapse mortality, and overall survival were also comparable in the two groups. GRFS at 12 months was 54.5% in the PTCy group versus 43.2% in the ATG group (P = 0.27). The median time to neutrophil and platelet count recovery was significantly longer in the PTCy group compared to the ATG group. Except for day +30, where EORTC QLQ-C30 scores were significantly lower in the PTCy compared to the ATG group, the evolution with time was not different between the two groups. Although the primary objective was not met, PTCy is effective for GVHD prophylaxis in patients receiving Flu-Bu2 conditioning with a PBSC graft from a fully matched donor and was well tolerated in term of adverse events and quality of life. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov: NCT02876679.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains the best consolidation strategy for acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with complex karyotype (CK). However, CK is a heterogenous and highly diverse entity. Numerical abnormalities have been associated with a controversial prognosis and AML with only multiple numerical abnormalities known as pure hyperdiploid karyotype (HDK) may have a distinct prognosis after allo-HCT compared to non-pure HDK CK AML. A total of 236 patients were identified within the EBMT registry as having HDK comprising 95 pure (pHDK) and 141 with other cytogenetic abnormalities (HDK+). The 2-year probability of leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 50% for pHDK and 31% for HDK+ (p = 0.003). The 2-year probability of overall survival (OS) was 57% for pHDK and 36% for HDK+ (p = 0.007). The 2-year cumulative incidence of relapse (RI) was 22% for pHDK and 44% for HDK+ (p = 0.001). The 2-year probability of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD)-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 36% for pHDK and 21% for HDK+ (p = 0.01). On multivariate analysis, pHDK remained associated with significantly better LFS, OS and GRFS and lower RI (all p-values <0.004). pHDK AML constitutes probably a distinct cytogenetic entity from HDK+ or other non-hyperdiploid CK AML with better outcomes after allo-HCT.

Abstract
The intensity of the conditioning regimen given before allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) can vary substantially. To confirm the ability of the recently developed transplant conditioning intensity (TCI) score to stratify the preparative regimens of allo-HCT, we used an independent and contemporary patient cohort of 4060 transplant recipients with acute myeloid leukemia meeting inclusion criteria from the discovery study (allo-HCT in first complete remission, matched donor), but who were allografted in a more recent period (2018-2021) and were one decade older (55-75 years, median 63.4 years), we assigned them to a TCI category (low n = 1934, 48%; intermediate n = 1948, 48%, high n = 178, 4%) according to the calculated TCI score ([1-2], [2.5-3.5], [4-6], respectively), and examined the validity of the TCI category in predicting early non-relapse mortality (NRM), 2-year NRM and relapse (REL). In the unadjusted comparison, the TCI index provided a significant risk stratification for d100 and d180 NRM, NRM and REL risk. In the multivariate analysis adjusted for significant variables, there was an independent association of TCI with early NRM, NRM and REL. In summary, we confirm in contemporary treated patients that TCI reflects the conditioning regimen related morbidity and anti-leukemic efficacy satisfactorily and across other established prognostic factors.

Abstract
Total body irradiation (TBI) at myeloablative doses is superior to chemotherapy-based regimens in young patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). However, in elderly and unfit patients, in whom reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens are preferred, whether a TBI-based or a chemotherapy-based approach is better is unexplored. Thiotepa can be used as part of ALL conditioning regimens. The current study aimed to compare transplantation outcomes after RIC with TBI-based or thiotepa-based regimens in patients with ALL. The study cohort comprised patients aged ≥40 years undergoing allo-HSCT for ALL in first complete remission between 2000 and 2020 who received an RIC regimen containing either TBI (4 to 6 Gy) or thiotepa. We identified a total of 265 patients, including 117 who received a TBI-based RIC regimen and 148 who received a thiotepa-based RIC regimen. Univariate analysis revealed no significant differences in the following transplantation outcomes for TBI versus thiotepa: relapse, 23% versus 28% (P = .24); nonrelapse mortality, 20% versus 26% (P = .61); leukemia-free survival, 57% versus 46% (P = .12); overall survival, 67% versus 56% (P = .18); graft-versus-host disease (GVHD]/relapse-free survival, 45% versus 38% (P = .21); grade II-IV acute GVHD, 30% in both groups (P = .84); grade III-IV acute GVHD, 9% versus 10% (P = .89). The sole exception was the incidence of chronic GVHD, which was higher in the recipients of TBI-based regimens (43% versus 29%; P = .03). However, multivariate analysis revealed no differences in transplantation outcomes between the 2 groups. In patients aged ≥40 years receiving RIC, use of a thiotepa-based regimen may represent a valid alternative to TBI-based regimens, as no differences were observed in the main transplantation outcomes.

Abstract
In patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) of intermediate-risk (IR) in first remission (CR1) with no measurable residual disease (MRD negative), the choice of the best consolidation is questionable. 1122 adult patients from 196 centers, transplanted in 2010-21 were analyzed: 547 received an autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) and 575 a Haploidentical donor transplant. Because of a significant interaction, comparisons were done separately for patients with wild-type FLT3 (FLT3-wt) and FLT3-ITD mutation (FLT3-ITD). In FLT3-wt patients, haploidentical transplants had two year lower relapse incidence (RI) (16.9% versus 32.6%; HR = 0.40, p < 0.001), higher NRM higher (17.2% vs 3.5%; HR = 7.02, p < 0.001), similar LFS (65.9% vs 63.8%; p = 0.37) and lower OS (73.2% vs 80.6%; HR = 1.69, p = 0.018). In FLT3-ITD patients, haploidentical transplants had two year lower RI (8.2% vs 47.8%; HR = 0.14, p < 0.001) higher NRM (20.2% vs 5.6%; HR = 3.43, p = 0.002), better LFS (71.5% vs 46.6%; HR = 0.53, p = 0.007) and similar OS (73.5% vs 61.9%; p = 0.44). In IR AML patients with FLT3-wt in MRD negative CR1, autologous stem cell transplantation is a valid option, while in patients with FLT3-ITD, haploidentical transplant is better. Whether autologous transplantation is superior to chemotherapy in FLT3-wt patients and the role of maintenance therapy with FLT3 inhibitors remain to be studied.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to compare two immunosuppressive strategies, based on the use of either rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG) or posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY), as a prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in first complete remission who underwent hematopoietic cells transplantation from matched unrelated donors. METHODS Overall, 117 and 779 adult patients who received PTCY and ATG, respectively, between the years 2015 and 2020 were included in this retrospective study. The median patient age was 40 and 43 years in the PTCY and ATG groups, respectively, and 37% and 35% of patients, respectively, had Philadelphia chromosome-positive ALL. RESULTS In univariate analysis, the cumulative incidence of acute and chronic GVHD did not differ significantly between the study groups. The cumulative incidence of relapse at 2 years was reduced in the PTCY group (18% vs. 25%; p = .046) without a significant impact on nonrelapse mortality (11% vs. 16% in the ATG group; p = .29). The rates of leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival were 71% versus 59%, respectively (p = .01), and 82% versus 74%, respectively (p = .08). In multivariate analysis, the receipt of ATG compared with PTCY was associated with a reduced risk of extensive chronic GVHD (hazard ratio, 0.54; 95% confidence interval, 0.3-0.98; p = .04) and an increased risk of low LFS (hazard ratio, 1.57; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-2.45; p = .045). CONCLUSIONS The receipt of ATG compared with PTCY, despite the reduced risk of extensive chronic GVHD, is associated with inferior LFS in adults with ALL who undergo hematopoietic cell transplantation from 10/10 human leukocyte antigen-matched unrelated donors. These findings warrant verification in prospective trials.

Abstract
We compared outcomes, of 1609 patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) undergoing allogeneic transplantation (HSCT) in first complete remission (CR1) from matched unrelated donors (MUD) from 2010 to 2021, receiving or not receiving anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) (ATG-1308, no ATG-301). Median age was 60.9 (range, 18.5-77.8) and 61.1 (range, 21.8-75.7) years, (p = 0.3). Graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was cyclosporin-A with methotrexate (41%) or mycophenolate mofetil (38.2%), without significant differences between groups. Day 28, engraftment (ANC > 0.5 × 109/L) was 92.3% vs 95.3% (p = 0.17), respectively. On multivariate analysis, ATG was associated with lower incidence of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute GVHD (p = 0.002 and p = 0.015), total and extensive chronic GVHD (p = 0.008 and p < 0.0001), and relapse incidence (RI) (p = 0.039), while non-relapse mortality (NRM) did not differ (p = 0.51). Overall survival (OS), and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) were significantly higher in the ATG vs no ATG group, HR = 0.76 (95% CI 0.61-0.95, p = 0.014) and HR = 0.68 (95% CI 0.57-0.8, p < 0.0001), with a tendency for better leukemia-free survival (LFS), HR = 0.82 (95% CI 0.67-1, p = 0.051). The main causes of death were the original disease, infection, and GVHD. In conclusion, ATG reduces GVHD and improves LFS, OS, and GRFS in sAML patients without increasing the RI, despite sAML being a high-risk disease.

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
We retrospectively compared the impact of the conditioning regimen in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) that received high-dose myeloablative chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) from 2010 to 2021 with either high-dose cytarabine, etoposide and busulfan (BEA), busulfan with cyclophosphamide (BUCY) or busulfan and high-dose melphalan (BUMEL) registered in the EBMT database. Overall 1560 patients underwent ASCT, of which 156, 1143 and 261 received BEA, BUCY and BUMEL, respectively. Compared to BUCY and BUMEL, BEA patients were younger (p < 0.001) and less frequently had NPM1 mutations (p = 0.03). Transplant outcomes at 5 years with BEA, BUCY and BUMEL were: cumulative incidence of relapse 41.8%, 46.6% and 51.6%; non-relapse mortality (NRM) 1.5%, 5.2% and 7.3%; probability of leukemia-free survival (LFS) 56.7%, 48.2% and 41.1%; and overall survival (OS) 71.3%, 62.3% and 56%, respectively. In multivariable analysis the BEA regimen showed significant improvement in OS compared to BUCY (hazard ratio [HR] 0.65; 95% CI, 0.42-0.83; p = 0.048) and BUMEL (HR 0.59; 95% CI, 0.37-0.94; p = 0.029). In conclusion, high-dose myeloablative combination chemotherapy with BEA offered improved outcomes compared to classical BUCY or BUMEL in patients with AML in CR1 undergoing ASCT.

Abstract
PURPOSE Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is recommended in first complete remission (CR1) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) harboring FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3-internal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD). We assessed changes over time in transplant characteristics and outcomes in patients with AML age 60 years and younger with a FLT3-ITD. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We identified 1,827 adult patients with AML (median age 49 years, range 18-60) with FLT3-ITD and intermediate karyotype, allografted between 2012 and 2021 in CR1. RESULTS NPM1 was mutated in 72% of patients. We compared changes over time in 688 patients transplanted between 2012 and 2016, and 1,139 patients transplanted between 2017 and 2021. For patients with wild-type NPM1, the 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) significantly improved over time from 54% to 64% (HR = 0.67; P = 0.011) and from 63% to 71% (HR = 0.66; P = 0.021), respectively. Allo-HCT in recent years significantly reduced the cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR). For patients with NPM1 mutation, no significant changes over time were noted. CONCLUSIONS In patients with AML with FLT3-ITD and wild-type NPM1, we noticed a significant decrease over time in the CIR and improvement of LFS and OS, likely reflecting the efficacy of FLT-3 inhibitors, including when used as posttransplant maintenance, in this high-risk setting. On the contrary, no significant change over time was noticed in outcomes of patients harboring a FLT3 and NPM1 mutation.

Abstract
We compared FT14 (fludarabine 150-160 mg/m2, treosulfan 42 g/m2) versus FB4 (fludarabine 150-160 mg/m2, busulfan 12.8 mg/kg) in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) transplanted at primary refractory/relapsed disease. We retrospectively studied: (a) adults diagnosed with AML, (b) recipients of first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from unrelated/sibling donor (2010-2020), (c) HSCT with primary refractory/relapsed disease, (d) conditioning regimen with FT14 or FB4. We studied 346 patients, 113 transplanted with FT14, and 233 with FΒ4. FT14 patients were significantly older, more frequently had an unrelated donor and had received a lower dose of fludarabine. Cumulative incidence (CI) of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) grade III-IV and extensive chronic GVHD was similar. With a median follow-up of 28.7 months, 2-year CI of relapse was 43.4% in FT14 versus 53.2% in FB4, while non-relapse mortality (NRM) was respectively 20.8% versus 22.6%. This led to 2-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) of 35.8% for FT14 versus 24.2% in FB4, and overall survival (OS) of 44.4% versus 34%. Adverse cytogenetics and conditioning regimen independently predicted CI of relapse. Furthermore, conditioning regimen was the only independent predictor of LFS, OS, and GVHD-free/relapse-free survival. Therefore, our real-world multicenter study suggests that FT14 is associated with better outcomes in primary refractory/relapsed AML.

Abstract
We conducted a registry analysis including adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients in remission who had received thiotepa, busulfan, and fludarabine (TBF) or treosulfan-based (Treo) conditioning for haplo-hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) between 2010 and 2020. A total of 1123 patients met the inclusion criteria (968 received TBF and 155 received Treo). A 1:1 matched-pair analysis was performed on 142 TBF and 142 Treo patients. In the Treo group, 68% of patients received treosulfan at a dose ≥36 g/m2 and 54% of patients received a second alkylator (thiotepa or melphalan). We observed a trend toward increased incidence of grade II-IV acute (a) graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) at 180 days in the TBF group compared with Treo (29% versus 20%; P = 0.08), while incidence of grade III-IV aGVHD was not statistically different. Similarly, the incidence of chronic (c) GVHD was not statistically different in the 2 groups. Incidence of nonrelapse mortality at 2 years was 19% in TBF and 14% in Treo (P = 0.4). Relapse incidence at 2 years was not statistically different in the 2 groups (16% and 18% in TBF and Treo, respectively; P = 0.9). Leukemia-free survival, overall survival, and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival was 65% versus 68% (P = 0.6), 73% versus 76% (P = 0.5), and 54% versus 53% (P = 0.8) in TBF versus Treo, respectively. In conclusion, we did not find a significant difference between the 2 conditioning in the present study; Treo and TBF represent 2 valid alternative regimens for haplo-HSCT with PTCy for AML in remission.

Abstract
Second transplantation (HSCT2) is a potential treatment for primary graft failure (pGF). We assessed the outcome of HSCT2, performed between 2000 and 2021, for pGF in 243 patients with acute leukemia. Median age was 44.8 years. Conditioning at first HSCT (HSCT1) was myeloablative (MAC) in 58.4%. Median time from HSCT1 to HSCT2 was 48 days. Donors for HSCT2 were the same as for HSCT1 in 49%. Engraftment post HSCT2 was achieved by 73.7% of patients. The incidence of acute (a) graft versus host disease (GVHD) grades II-IV and III-IV was 23.2 and 8.1%. 5-year total and extensive chronic (c) GVHD was 22.3 and 10.1%. 5-year nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse incidence (RI), leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS) and GVHD free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 51.6, 18.8, 29.6, 30.7 and 22.4%, respectively. Infections were the main cause of death. In multivariable analysis, being transplanted at second vs. first remission, lower Karnofsky performance status (KPS; <90) and receiving MAC at HSCT1 were adverse prognostic factors for NRM, LFS, OS, and GRFS, as was increased age for NRM, LFS, OS. We conclude that HSCT2 can rescue about a third of the patients who experienced pGF, but NRM is as high as 50%.

Abstract
Blood-related diseases are complex diseases with diverse origins, treatments and prognosis. In haematology studies, investigators are interested in multiple outcomes and multiple prognostic variables that may change value over the course of follow-up. These time-dependent variables can be of different nature. Time-dependent events such as treatment with haematopoeitic stem cell transplant (HCT) and acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) typically interact with outcomes respectively after diagnosis or HCT. Longitudinal measurement such as immune response do influence survival after HCT. Effect of these time-dependent variables on outcomes can be investigated using different approaches, such as time-dependent Cox regression, landmark analysis, multi-state models or joint modelisation. In this paper we review basic principles of these different approaches using examples from haematological studies.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is a potentially curative treatment in high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Conditioning regimens based on ≥12 Gray total body irradiation (TBI) represent the current standard in patients ≤45 years, whereas elderly patients frequently receive intermediate intensity conditioning (IIC) to reduce toxicity. To evaluate the role of TBI as a backbone of IIC in ALL, a retrospective, registry-based study included patients >45 years transplanted from matched donors in first complete remission, who had received either fludarabine/TBI 8 Gy (FluTBI8, n = 262), or the most popular, irradiation-free alternative fludarabine/busulfan, comprising busulfan 6.4 mg/kg (FluBu6.4, n = 188) or 9.6 mg/kg (FluBu9.6, n = 51). At two years, overall survival (OS) was 68.5%, 57%, and 62.2%, leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 58%, 42.7%, and 45%, relapse incidence (RI) was 27.2%, 40%, and 30.9%, and non-relapse-mortality (NRM) was 23.1%, 20.7%, and 26.8% for patients receiving FluTBI8Gy, FluBu6.4, and FluBu9.6, respectively. In multivariate analysis, the risk of NRM, acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease was not influenced by conditioning. However, RI was higher after FluBu6.4 (hazard ratio [HR] [95% CI]: 1.85 [1.16-2.95]), and LFS was lower after both FluBu6.4 (HR: 1.56 [1.09-2.23]) and FluBu9.6 (HR: 1.63 [1.02-2.58]) as compared to FluTBI8. Although only resulting in a non-significant advantage in OS, this observation indicates a stronger anti-leukemic efficacy of TBI-based intermediate intensity conditioning.

Abstract
Graft failure has remained a limitation of umbilical cord blood transplantation (CBT). Here, we assessed the outcomes of patients who experienced graft failure after CBT. Inclusion criteria were patients (age ≥ 18 years) experiencing graft failure after unrelated CBT (single or double) between 2005 and 2016, for acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), no prior allogeneic or autologous transplantation, no other stem cell product. The study included 87 patients. At 1-year, cumulative incidence of relapse and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was 35% and 37%, respectively. One-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) was 40% and 29%, respectively. Forty-six patients underwent a salvage second transplantation with 1-year and 2-year OS and PFS from second transplantation 41% and 34% for OS, and 37% and 34% for PFS, respectively. In multivariate analysis, complete remission (CR) at CBT (HR = 0.45, 95% CI 0.25-0.83, P = 0.01) and reduced-intensity conditioning (HR = 0.51, 95% CI 0.29-0.91, P = 0.023) were associated with better OS. In conclusion, in this retrospective study, we observed that approximately one-quarter of patients experiencing graft failure after CBT remained alive without relapse 2 years later.

Abstract
For patients with acute myeloid and lymphoblastic leukaemia (AML/ALL) lacking a matched sibling or unrelated donor, haploidentical stem cell transplantation (HAPLO-SCT) is increasingly used. However, available data on the treatment of relapse after HAPLO-SCT, including feasibility and efficacy of a second HAPLO-SCT (HAPLO-SCT2), is scarce. Hence, adults with AML/ALL, that had undergone HAPLO-SCT2 without ex-vivo manipulation after haematologic relapse from HAPLO-SCT1 were selected for a retrospective registry analysis. Eighty-two patients (AML, n = 63, ALL, n = 19, median follow-up: 33 months) were identified. Engraftment rate was 87%. At day +180, cumulative incidences of acute GvHD II-IV°/chronic GvHD were 23.9%/22.6%, respectively. Two-year overall survival/leukaemia-free survival (OS/LFS) were 34.3%/25.4%; 2-year non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse incidence (RI) were 17.6% and 57%. Leukaemia was the most frequent cause of death. Separated by disease, 2-year OS/LFS/NRM/RI were 28.7%/22.3%/16.2%/61.6% in AML, and 55.3%/38.4%/23.5%/38.2% in ALL patients. In a risk-factor analysis among patients with AML, stage at HAPLO-SCT1 and HAPLO-SCT2, and interval from HAPLO-SCT1 to relapse significantly influenced outcome. Our data demonstrate that HAPLO-SCT2 is a viable option in acute leukaemia relapse after HAPLO-SCT1. Engraftment, toxicity, risk factors and long-term outcome are comparable to data reported after allo-SCT2 in a matched donor setting.

Abstract
We compared transplants (HSCT) from matched related siblings (MSD) with those from matched 10/10 and mismatched 9/10 unrelated (UD) and T-replete haploidentical (Haplo) donors in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in first complete remission (CR1) achieved after two inductions, a known poor prognostic factor. One thousand two hundred and ninety-five patients were included: MSD (n = 428), UD 10/10 (n = 554), UD 9/10 (n = 135), and Haplo (n = 178). Acute GVHD II-IV was higher in all groups compared to MSD. Extensive chronic (c) GVHD was significantly higher in UD 9/10 (HR = 2.52; 95% CI 1.55-4.11, p = 0.0002) and UD 10/10 (HR = 1.48; 95% CI 1.03-2.13, p = 0.036) and cGVHD all grades were higher in UD 9/10 vs MSD (HR = 1.77; 95% CI 1.26-2.49, p = 0.0009). Non-relapse mortality was higher in all groups compared to MSD. Relapse incidence, leukemia-free, and overall survival did not differ significantly between donor types. Finally, GVHD-free relapse-free survival was lower in HSCT from UD 9/10 (HR = 1.56, 95% CI 1.20-2.03, p = 0.0009) but not in those from UD 10/10 (HR = 1.13, p = 0.22) and Haplo donors (HR = 1.12, p = 0.43) compared to MSD. In conclusion, in AML patients undergoing HSCT in CR1 achieved after two induction courses 10/10 UD and Haplo but not 9/10 UD donors are comparable alternatives to MSD.

Abstract
Pre-transplant detectable measurable residual disease (MRD) is still associated with high risk of relapse and poor outcomes in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). We aimed at evaluating the impact of disease burden on prediction of relapse and survival in patients receiving allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) in first remission (CR1). We identified a total of 3202 adult AML patients, of these 1776 patients were in CR1 and MRD positive and 1426 patients were primary refractory at time of transplant. After a median follow-up of 24.4 months, non-relapse mortality and relapse rate were significantly higher in the primary refractory group compared to the CR1 MRD positive group (Hazards Ratio (HR) = 1.82 (95% CI: 1.47-2.24) p < 0.001 and HR = 1.54 (95% CI: 1.34-1.77), p < 0.001), respectively. Leukemia-free survival (LFS) and overall survival (OS) were significantly worse in the primary refractory group (HR = 1.61 (95% CI: 1.44-1.81), p < 0.001 and HR = 1.71 (95% CI: 1.51-1.94), p < 0.001, respectively). Our real-life data suggest that patients in CR1 and MRD positive at time of transplant could still be salvaged by allo-HCT with a 2-year OS of 63%, if negative MRD cannot be obtained and their outcomes are significantly better than patients transplanted with active disease.

Abstract
Availability of haploidentical donors has broadened utilization of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). Peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) are being used with increased frequency in haploidentical allo-HCT. We evaluated extent of HLA disparity (2-3/8 versus 4/8 HLA antigen mismatches) on post-allograft outcomes when using T-cell replete PBSC from haploidentical donors for acute myeloid leukemia in first complete remission. Primary objectives entailed assessing cumulative incidence of grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD (any grade). A total of 645 patients received a haploidentical allo-HCT from a donor with either 2-3 of 8 HLA antigen mismatches (n = 180) or with 4 of 8 HLA antigen mismatches (n = 465). Presence of 2-3 of 8 versus 4 of 8 HLA mismatches did not affect the incidence of acute GVHD (grade 2-4) and chronic GVHD (any grade). Overall survival (OS), leukemia-free survival (LFS) relapse incidence (RI), nonrelapse mortality and the composite endpoint of GVHD-free relapse-free survival were also similar among the groups. Pertaining to HLA-B leader matching effect, our analysis did not discern any difference in aforementioned post-allograft outcomes for this variable. However, in univariate analysis, absence of an antigen mismatch in HLA-DPB1 showed a trend for better OS. Notwithstanding inherent limitations associated with registry data, our results did not show an advantage of selecting a haploidentical donor with 2-3 of 8 HLA antigen mismatches over one with 4 of 8 HLA antigen mismatches when using PBSC as the cell source. Adverse cytogenetics remains a major adverse determinant of inferior OS and LFS and a higher RI. Using reduced-intensity conditioning yielded worse OS and LFS.

Abstract
We compared outcomes of adult patients with secondary acute myeloid leukemia (sAML) versus de novo AML after non-T-depleted haploidentical stem cell transplant (HaploSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). Seventeen hundred and eleven AML patients (sAML-231, de novo-1480) in first complete remission transplanted from 2010 to 2021, were included. Patients with de novo AML were younger, median age 55.8 versus 60.8 years, p < 0.0001, had better transplantation comorbidity index (HCT-CI) ≥ 3 21.3% versus 40.8%, p < 0.0001 and Karnofsky performance status (KPS) with KPS ≥ 90 in 78% versus 68.5%, respectively, p = 0.002. The two patient groups did not differ with respect to gender, cytomegalovirus serostatus, and cell source. Median time from diagnosis to HaploSCT was 5.2 versus 4.9 months, respectively, p = 0.005. Fewer sAML patients received myeloablative conditioning 35.1% versus 50.1%, p < 0.0001. Two hundred and eleven sAML and 410 de novo AML patients were included in the matched-pair analysis matching two de novo AML with each sAML. No significant difference was observed in any transplantation outcome parameter between the sAML versus de novo AML groups. Two-year non-relapse mortality and relapse incidence did not differ with HaploSCT for de novo versus sAML; 21.4% versus 21%, hazard ratio (HR) = 0.98, p = 0.9 and 23.4% versus 20.6%, HR = 0.92, p = 0.67, respectively. Two-year leukemia-free survival, overall survival, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)-free, relapse-free survival were also not different between the de novo AML and sAML groups 55.2% versus 58.4%, HR = 0.95, p = 0.67; 61.4% versus 66.4%, HR = 0.91, p = 0.51 and 46.3% versus 48.2%, HR = 0.92, p = 0.48, respectively. Similarly, the incidence of engraftment as well as acute and chronic GVHD was similar between the 2 cohorts. In conclusion, HaploSCT with PTCy may be able to overcome the bad prognosis of sAML as results are not significantly different to those of HaploSCT in de novo AML.

Abstract
Older age and a high burden of comorbidities often drive the selection of low-intensity conditioning regimens in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation recipients. However, the impact of comorbidities in the low-intensity conditioning setting is unclear. We sought to determine the contribution of individual comorbidities and their cumulative burden on the risk of nonrelapse mortality (NRM) among patients receiving low-intensity regimens. In a retrospective analysis of adults (≥18 years) who underwent transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia in the first complete remission between 2008 and 2018, we studied recipients of low-intensity regimens as defined by the transplantation conditioning intensity (TCI) scale. Multivariable Cox models were constructed to study associations of comorbidities with NRM. Comorbidities identified as putative risk factors in the low-TCI setting were included in combined multivariable regression models assessed for overall survival, NRM, and relapse. A total of 1663 patients with a median age of 61 years received low-TCI regimens. Cardiac comorbidity (including arrhythmia/valvular disease) and psychiatric disease were associated with increased NRM risk (hazard ratio [HR], 1.54; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.13-2.09 and HR, 1.69; 95% CI, 1.02-2.82, respectively). Moderate pulmonary dysfunction, though prevalent, was not associated with increased NRM. In a combined model, cardiac, psychiatric, renal, and inflammatory bowel diseases were independently associated with adverse transplantation outcomes. These findings may inform patient and regimen selection and reinforce the need for further investigation of cardioprotective transplantation approaches.

Abstract
Total body irradiation (TBI) at a dose of 12 Gy combined with cyclophosphamide (CyTBI12Gy) is one of the standard myeloablative regimens for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). In clinical practice, cyclophosphamide may be substituted with fludarabine (FluTBI12Gy) to reduce toxicity. We retrospectively compared outcomes of CyTBI12Gy with FluTBI12Gy for patients with AML treated in complete remission (CR) with allo-HCT from either a matched sibling or unrelated donor. Of 1684 adults who met inclusion criteria, 109 patients in each group were included in a matched-pair analysis. The cumulative incidence of relapse at 2 years was 25% in the FluTBI12Gy compared to 28% in the CyTBI12Gy group (p = .44) while non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 17% versus 19%, (p = .89) respectively. The rates of leukemia-free survival and overall survival were 65% versus 54% (p = .28) and 70% versus 60.5% (p = .17). Cumulative incidence of grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was significantly lower for FluTBI12Gy than CyTBI12Gy (16% vs. 34%, p = .005), while the incidences of grade 3-4 acute GVHD and chronic GVHD did not differ significantly. The probability of GVHD and relapse-free survival was 49% in the FluTBI12Gy and 41% in the CyTBI12Gy group (p = .17). We conclude that for patients with AML treated with allo-HCT in CR, cyclophosphamide may be substituted with fludarabine in a regimen based on TBI at a dose of 12 Gy without negative impact on the efficacy. FluTBI12Gy is associated with reduced risk of grade 2-4 acute GVHD and encouraging survival rates.

Abstract
AbstractThe optimal reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen is a matter of debate. We retrospectively compared conditioning with fludarabine plus fractionated total body irradiation of 8 Gy (FluTBI) and fludarabine plus treosulfan 30, 36 or 42 g/m2 (FluTreo) in 754 patients with AML above the age of 40 years undergoing an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in first complete remission (CR). After balancing patient characteristics by propensity score matching of 115 patients in each group, FluTBI was associated with a significantly lower probability of relapse compared to FluTreo (18.3% vs. 34.7%, p = 0.018) which was counteracted by a higher non-relapse mortality (NRM, 16.8% vs. 5.3%, p = 0.02). Thus, overall survival and graft-versus-host disease-free and relapse-free survival at 2 years were similar between groups (OS 66.9% vs. 67.8%, GRFS 50.3% vs. 45.6%). Univariate analysis by age group demonstrated a higher NRM exclusively in patients ≥55 years of age treated with FluTBI compared to FluTreo (27.6% vs. 5.8%, p = 0.02), while a similarly low NRM was observed in patients <55 years in both groups (6.0% vs. 4.7%, p = ns). We conclude that both conditioning regimens are effective and safe, but FluTBI may better be reserved for younger patients below the age of 55 years.

Abstract
Pre-transplant measurable residual disease (MRD) predicts relapse and outcome of allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). The impact of MRD on the outcomes of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based allo-HCT from a matched unrelated donor (UD) is unknown. This study assessed the impact of MRD in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in the first complete remission (CR1). A total of 272 patients (MRD negative [MRD-], n = 165; MRD positive [MRD+], n = 107) with a median follow-up of 19 (range: 16-24) months were studied. The incidence of grades II-IV and grades III-IV acute GVHD at day 180 was 25.2% and 25% (p = 0.99), and 10.6% and 6.8% (p = 0.29), respectively, and 2-year chronic GVHD was 35% and 30.4% (p = 0.96) in MRD+ and MRD- cohorts, respectively. In multivariate analysis, MRD+ status was associated with a higher incidence of relapse (RI) (hazard ratio [HR] = 2.56, 95% CI: 1.39-4.72), lower leukaemia-free survival (LFS) (HR = 2.04, 95% CI: 1.23-3.39), overall survival (OS) (HR = 1.83, 95% CI: 1.04-3.25) and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) (HR = 1.69, 95% CI: 1.10-2.58). MRD status did not have a significant impact on non-relapse mortality (NRM), or acute or chronic GVHD risk. Among patients with AML undergoing UD allo-HCT with PTCy, pre-transplant MRD+ status predicted a higher relapse rate, lower LFS, OS and GRFS.

Abstract
There are situations where non-first-degree (NFD) related donors have to be considered as alternatives to first-degree (FD) related donors for haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HAPLO). However, the efficacy of these NFD related transplants remains uncertain. All consecutive adult patients (≥ 18 years) with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) or acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) in CR who underwent a first HAPLO between 2010 and 2021 in the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) registry were analyzed. Exact matching and propensity score matching was used. The NFD-to-FD ratio was 1:3. 2703 patients (AML: n = 2047; ALL: n = 656) in CR received a first HAPLO from either NFD (n = 154) or FD (n = 2549) related donors in 177 EBMT centers. 123 NFD and 324 FD HAPLO were included for analysis after matching. Median patient age was 35.6 and 37.2 for the NFD and FD cohorts, respectively. Both cohorts reached good engraftment rates (NFD: 95.7% vs. FD, 95.6%; p = 0.78). The 2-year relapse incidence (NFD, 21.1% vs. FD, 22.6%; p = 0.84) and non-relapse mortality (NRM) (NFD, 13.2% vs. FD, 17.7%; p = 0.33) were not significantly different. The 2-year overall survival (OS) (NFD, 71.8% vs. FD, 68.3%; p = 0.56), leukemia-free survival (LFS) (NFD, 65.7% vs. FD, 59.7%; p = 0.6) and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) (NFD, 50.9% vs. FD, 47.8%; p = 0.69) also showed no significant differences. The two cohorts showed no difference in terms of cumulative day 180 grade II-IV, grade III-IV acute GVHD, 2-year cumulative incidences of chronic and extensive chronic GVHD. For HAPLO in patients with acute leukemia, NFD related donors could be equivalent substitutions when FD related donors are not available.

Abstract
Cyclophosphamide is frequently substituted with fludarabine (Flu) in conditioning regimens before allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT). We aimed to compare retrospectively, total body irradiation (12 Gy) plus Flu (FluTBI12) versus busulfan (Bu) plus Flu (FB4) as a myeloablative conditioning before allo-HCT in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Out of 3203 patients who met the inclusion criteria, 109 patients treated with FluTBI12 and 213 treated with FB4 were included in a final matched-pair analysis. In both groups, median patient age was 41 years, first or second complete remission (CR1/CR2) proportion was 78%/22%, allo-HCT from an unrelated donor was performed in 78% of patients. The probabilities of leukemia-free survival and overall survival at 2 years in FluTBI12 and FB4 groups were 65% vs. 60% (p = 0.64) and 70% vs. 72% (p = 0.87), respectively. The cumulative incidence of relapse was 19% vs. 29% (p = 0.11), while non-relapse mortality was 16% vs. 11%, respectively (p = 0.13). There were no statistical differences in both acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) incidence. The probability of GVHD-free, relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 49% for both groups. FluTBI12 and FB4 are comparable myeloablative regimens before allo-HCT in AML patients transplanted in CR1 and CR2.

Abstract
The association between graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) occurrence and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) relapse in patients treated with HLA-haploidentical allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based GVHD prophylaxis has remained debated. Here, we addressed this issue in patients with active AML at transplantation. 2-year cumulative incidences of relapse and leukemia-free survival (LFS) were 49% and 32.3%, respectively. There were no associations between acute nor chronic GVHD of any grade and lower relapse incidence. However, grade I acute GVHD was associated with better LFS (HR = 0.71, 95% CI 0.51-0.99, P = 0.04). In contrast, grade III-IV acute (HR = 3.09, 95% CI 1.87-5.12, P < 0.0001) as well as extensive chronic (HR = 3.3, 95% CI 1.81-6.04, P = 0.0001) GVHD correlated with higher nonrelapse mortality leading to lower LFS (HR = 1.36, 95% CI 0.99-1.86, P = 0.056 and HR = 1.97, 95% CI 1.35-2.89, P = 0.0004, respectively). In conclusion, these data suggest a dissociation of graft-versus-leukemia effects from GVHD in patients with active AML treated with PTCy-based Haplo-HCT.

Abstract
In this registry-based study we retrospectively compared outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) for adult patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) following conditioning with total body irradiation (TBI) combined with either cyclophosphamide (Cy) or fludarabine (Flu). TBI 12 Gy + Cy was used in 2105 cases while TBI 12 Gy + Flu was administered to 150 patients in first or second complete remission. In a multivariate model adjusted for other prognostic factors, TBI/Cy conditioning was associated with a reduced risk of relapse (HR = 0.69, p = 0.049) and increased risk of grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD, HR = 1.57, p = 0.03) without significant effect on other transplantation outcomes. In a matched-pair analysis the use of TBI/Cy as compared to TBI/Flu was associated with a significantly reduced rate of relapse (18% vs. 30% at 2 years, p = 0.015) without significant effect on non-relapse mortality, GVHD and survival. We conclude that the use of myeloablative TBI/Cy as conditioning prior to allo-HCT for adult patients with ALL in complete remission is associated with lower risk of relapse rate compared to TBI/Flu and therefore should probably be considered a preferable regimen.

Abstract
Relapsed B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) still represents a major concern with poor outcomes. The aim of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of blinatumomab and donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) versus blinatumomab alone in this setting. This is a multicenter retrospective study from centers of SFGM-TC. All transplanted patients who received blinatumomab salvage therapy were included. Patients who received DLI from 1 month before to 100 days after the starting of blinatumomab were included in the blina-DLI group. Seventy-two patients were included. Medium follow-up was 38 months. Fifty received blinatumomab alone and 22 the association blinatumomab-DLI. Two-year overall survival (OS) was 31% in the blinatumomab group and 43% in the blinatumomab-DLI group (p = 0.31). Studying DLI as a time dependent variable, PFS did not significantly differ between the 2 groups (HR:0.7, 95% CI: 0.4-1.5). In multivariate analysis, DLI was not a prognostic factor for OS, progression-free survival and progression/relapse incidence. Adverse events and graft-versus-disease rates were comparable in the 2 groups. In conclusion, adding DLI between 1 month before and 100 days after start of blinatumomab is safe and does not seem to improve outcomes in B-ALL patients who relapsed after allo-HCT.

Abstract
Veno-occlusive disease/sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (VOD/SOS) is a potentially life-threatening complication of haematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) conditioning. The DEFIFrance post-marketing registry study evaluated effectiveness and safety in patients who received defibrotide. It collected retrospective/prospective patient data from 53 French HCT centres from July 2014 to March 2020. Primary endpoints were survival and complete response (CR; total serum bilirubin <2 mg/dL, multiorgan failure resolution) at Day 100 post-HCT among patients with severe/very severe VOD/SOS. A secondary endpoint was evaluation of treatment-emergent serious adverse events (TESAEs) of interest. Of 798 patients analysed, 251 and 81 received defibrotide treatment for severe/very severe VOD/SOS and mild/moderate VOD/SOS post-HCT, respectively; 381 received defibrotide for VOD/SOS prophylaxis. In patients with severe/very severe VOD/SOS post-HCT, Kaplan-Meier-estimated CR at Day 100 was 74% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 66%, 81%). At Day 100, 137/251 (55%) were alive and in CR. Kaplan-Meier-estimated Day 100 post-HCT survival was 61% (95% CI: 55%, 67%) in patients with severe/very severe VOD/SOS. TESAEs of interest occurred in 29% of these patients; VOD/SOS-related mortality at 12 months was 15%. DEFIFrance represents the largest collection of real-world data on post-registration defibrotide use, supporting the real-world utility of defibrotide for patients with severe/very severe VOD/SOS post-HCT.

Abstract
PURPOSE We evaluated outcomes of unrelated transplantation for primary refractory/relapsed (ref/rel) acute myeloid leukemia (AML), comparing two cohorts according to the year of transplant, 2000-2009 and 2010-2019. PATIENTS AND METHODS Multivariable analyses were performed using the Cox proportional-hazards regression model. RESULTS 3,430 patients were included; 876 underwent a transplant between 2000-2009 and 2554 in 2010-2019. Median follow-up was 8.7 (95% CI, 7.8-9.4) and 3.4 (95% CI, 3.1-3.6) years (P < 0.001). Median age was 52 (18-77) and 56 (18-79) years (P > 0.0001); 45.5% and 55.5% had refractory AML while 54.5% and 44.5% had relapsed AML. Conditioning was myeloablative in 60% and 52%, respectively. Neutrophil recovery and day 100 incidence of acute and 2-year incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) were similar between the two periods. Two-year relapse incidence was higher for patients undergoing transplant in the 2000-2009 period versus those undergoing transplant in 2010-2019: 50.2% versus 45.1% (HR, 0.85; 95% CI, 0.74-0.97; P = 0. 002). Leukemia-free survival; overall survival; and GvHD-free, relapse-free survival were lower for the 2000-2009 period: 26% versus 32.1% (HR, 0.87; 95% CI, 0.78-0.97; P = 0.01), 32.1% versus 38.1% (HR, 0.86; 95% CI, 0.77-0.96; P = 0.01), and 21.5% versus 25.3% (HR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.81-0.99; P = 0.03), respectively. Two-year nonrelapse mortality was not significantly different (23.8% vs. 23.7%; HR, 0.91; 95% CI, 0.76-1.11; P = 0.34). CONCLUSIONS Outcome of unrelated transplantation for patients with ref/rel AML has improved in the last two decades, rescuing about one third of the patients.

Abstract
Different doses of treosulfan plus fludarabine have shown advantage over reduced intensity regimens. However, data comparing higher doses of treosulfan to myeloablative busulfan are limited. Thus, we compared outcomes between FT14 (fludarabine 150/160 mg/m2 and treosulfan 42 g/m2, or FT14) over FB4 (fludarabine 150/160 mg/m2 and busulfan 12.8 mg/kg). We retrospectively studied patients from European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation registry: a) adults diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), b) recipients of first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from unrelated or sibling donor (2010-2020), c) HSCT at first or second complete remission, d) conditioning with FT14 or FB4. FT14 recipients (n = 678) were older, with higher rates of secondary AML, unrelated donors, peripheral blood grafts, and adverse cytogenetics, but lower percentage of female donor to male recipient compared to FB4 (n = 2025). Analysis was stratified on age. In patients aged < 55 years, FT14 was associated with higher relapse incidence (RI) and lower Leukemia-Free Survival (LFS). In patients aged≥55 years, acute GVHD CI was higher in FB4, without significant differences in other outcomes. Although FT14 has been used for higher-risk HSCT patients, our large real-world multicenter study suggests that FB4 is associated with better outcomes compared to FT14 in younger patients.
