Abstract
Coinfusion of unrelated cord blood (UCB) units in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) (haplo-cord HCT) for hematopoietic malignancies showed promising results in previous reports, but the efficiency of haplo-cord HCT in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) still lacks sufficient evidence. This multicenter, randomized, phase 3 trial (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT03719534) aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of haplo-cord HCT in AML patients. A total of 268 eligible patients aged 18-60 years, diagnosed with measurable residual disease in AML (excluding acute promyelocytic leukemia), with available haploidentical donors and suitable for allotransplantation, were randomly allocated (1:1) to receive haplo-cord HCT (n = 134) or haplo-HCT (n = 134). The 3-year overall survival (OS) was the primary endpoint in this study. Overall median follow-up was 36.50 months (IQR 24.75-46.50). The 3-year OS of Haplo-cord HCT group was better than haplo-HCT group (80.5%, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 73.7-87.9 vs. 67.8% 95% CI 60.0-76.5, p = 0.013). Favorable progression-free survival (70.3%, 95% CI 62.6-78.8 vs. 57.6%, 95% CI 49.6-67.0, p = 0.012) and cumulative incidence of relapse (12.1%, 95% CI 12.0-12.2 vs. 30.3%, 95% CI 30.1-30.4, p = 0.024) were observed in haplo-cord HCT group. Grade 3-4 adverse events (AEs) within two years posttransplantation in the two groups were similar. Haplo-cord HCT patients exhibited a faster cumulative incidence of neutrophil recovery (p = 0.026) and increased T-cell reconstitution in the early period posttransplantation. Haplo-cord HCT can improve OS in AML patients without excessive AEs, which may exert additional benefits for recipients of haplo-HCT.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivations cause significant morbidity in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) recipients. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is associated with an increased risk of CMV infections. Data are limited comparing HSCT with PTCy performed from matched sibling donors (MSDs), matched unrelated donors (MUDs), and haploidentical (Haplo) donors. In the present study, we aimed to characterize CMV reactivation and recurrence in patients with hematologic malignancies undergoing HSCT from MSD, MUD, and Haplo donors using PTCy as GVHD prophylaxis in the pre-letermovir era. We also analyzed risk factors of CMV reactivation, including GVHD as a time-dependent variable, on the incidence and mortality associated with CMV infections. We analyzed CMV reactivation in patients undergoing HSCT from 160 MSDs, 124 MUDs, and 82 Haplo donors from a single institution. Uniform GVHD prophylaxis with PTCy, sirolimus, and mycophenolate mofetil was given irrespective of donor type. Overall, 46% of patients had at least 1 CMV reactivation. The 1-year cumulative incidence of CMV infection was 39% for MSD, 44% for MUD, and 62% for Haplo donors (P < .001), with 96% of reactivations occurring before day +100. Multivariate analysis identified factors associated with the first CMV reactivation, including Haplo donor, positive recipient CMV serology, older patient age, and grade II-IV acute GVHD. The 1-year cumulative incidence of second reactivation from HSCT was 13%. Recipient CMV seropositivity, older patient age, and grade II-IV acute GVHD, but not type of donor, were identified as adverse factors for second CMV reactivation in multivariate analysis. The 1-year cumulative incidence of a third reactivation post HSCT was 4.4%. Ten cases of CMV disease were recorded, with no attributable deaths. Nevertheless, the risk for nonrelapse mortality was greater for patients who experienced CMV reactivation in multivariate time-dependent Cox model analysis. CMV reactivation is frequent in HSCT with PTCy in patients not receiving letermovir prophylaxis. Identified risk factors include the use of a Haplo donor, recipient CMV seropositivity, and grade II-IV acute GVHD. The prevalence of recurrent CMV reactivations is a noteworthy issue, especially after acute GVHD, warranting trials of secondary prophylaxis strategies.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) using glucocorticoids for acute graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis (GC-haplo) may become a curative treatment option for nonremission acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This retrospective study aimed to identify pre-HCT predictors of survival in a cohort of 97 nonremission AML treated with GC-haplo in Hyogo Medical University Hospital between 2010 and 2020. Relapse and primary induction failure included in 70 (72%) and 27 (28%) patients, respectively. Sixty-one patients (63%) had undergone previous HCT. Multivariate analysis revealed that ≤ 6 months' duration between first complete remission (CR1) and first relapse (Rel1) (CR1-Rel1 interval) (hazard ratio 2.11, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.15-3.89, P = 0.016) and serum albumin before starting the conditioning treatment of ≤ 3.5 g/dL (hazard ratio 1.80, 95%CI 1.09-2.96, P = 0.022) as risk factors for overall survival. Among three groups categorized according to serum albumin and CR1-Rel1 interval, the best 3-year overall survival was observed in patients with albumin > 3.5 g/dL and CR1-Rel1 interval > 6 months or primary induction failure (50.2%, 95%CI 28.9%-68.3%, P < 0.001), revealing that survival could be predicted using albumin and past CR duration in patients with very high-risk AML not in remission before GC-haplo.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) has emerged as an effective approach for acute leukemia, primarily due to the inherent difficulty in finding human leukocyte antigen-matched unrelated donors (MUD). Nevertheless, it remains uncertain whether haplo-HSCT and MUD-HSCT can provide comparable outcomes in patients with acute leukemia. AIMS This study aimed to assess the overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival (LFS) outcomes between the MUD-HSCT and haplo-HSCT groups. METHODS AND RESULTS This retrospective analysis encompassed adult patients with acute leukemia undergoing the initial allo-HSCT. Among these 85 patients, we stratified 33 patients into the MUD-HSCT group and 52 to the haplo-HSCT group. The primary outcomes were OS and LFS. The median OS was not reached in the haplo-HSCT group, while it reached 29.8 months in patients undergoing MUD-HSCT (p = .211). Likewise, the median LFS periods were 52.6 months in the haplo-HSCT group and 12.7 months in the MUD-HSCT group (p = .212). Importantly, neither the OS nor LFS showed substantial differences between the MUD-HSCT and haplo-HSCT groups. Furthermore, univariate analyses revealed that haplo-HSCT did not demonstrate a significantly higher risk of worse LFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.69; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.38-1.25; p = .216) or OS (HR, 0.67; 95% CI, 0.36-1.26; p = .214) than MUD-HSCT. Notably, a high European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation risk score (HR, 1.44; 95% CI, 1.10-1.87; p = .007) and non-complete remission (HR, 2.48; 95% CI, 1.17-5.23; p = .017) were significantly correlated with worse OS. CONCLUSION Haplo-HSCT may serve as an alternative to MUD-HSCT for the treatment of acute leukemia, offering similar survival outcomes.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate and verify a novel acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) prevention protocol in the context of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) . Methods: Patients who underwent haplo-HSCT in our center between January 2022 and December 2022 were included. All patients received reduced doses of cyclophosphamide, Rabbit anti-human tymoglobulin, ruxolitinib, methotrexate, cyclosporine, and MMF to prevent aGVHD. The transplantation outcomes, complications, and survival rate of all patients were investigated. Results: A total of 52 patients with haplo-HSCT were enrolled, 29 (55.8%) male and 23 (44.2%) female, with a median age of 28 (5-59) years. There were 25 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, 17 cases of acute lymphocyte leukemia, 6 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome, 2 cases of chronic myeloid leukemia and 2 cases of myeloproliferative neoplasms. 98.1% of patients had successful engraftment. The incidence of Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD and Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD was 19.2% (95% CI 8.2% -30.3% ) and 7.7% (95% CI 0.2% -15.2% ), respectively. No patients experienced severe gastrointestinal mucositis. The Epstein-Barr virus and CMV reactivation rates were 40.4% and 21.3%, respectively. 9.6% of patients relapsed during followup, with 1-year overall survival, progression-free survival, and non-relapse mortality rates of 86.5% (95% CI 76.9% -96.1% ), 78.8% (95% CI 67.4% -90.3% ) and 11.5% (95% CI 2.6% -20.5% ), respectively. Conclusion: Ruxolitinib combined with a low dose of PTCY is a safe and effective first-line aGVHD prevention strategy.

Abstract
In HLA haploidentical stem cell transplantation, patients and donors usually share one HLA haplotype and have one different HLA haplotype (hetero-to-hetero). However, there are rare cases of transplantation from HLA homozygous donors to heterozygous recipients (homo-to-hetero), resulting in mismatches only in the graft-versus-host direction. We previously reported that homo-to-hetero transplants have a lower survival rate in a mouse model than hetero-to-hetero transplants due to stronger graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) but inferior graft-versus-leukemia effect. To examine whether homo-to-hetero transplant effects also occur in humans, we retrospectively compared the results of 59 homo-to-hetero and 4,539 hetero-to-hetero cases in the Japanese transplant registry data. The results showed no statistical difference between the homo-to-hetero and hetero-to-hetero groups in the cumulative incidences of neutrophil engraftment (83.1% vs 89.0%), acute GVHD II-IV (36.8% vs 38.8%), III-IV (16.8% vs 17.4%), chronic GVHD (32.7% vs 30.7%), relapse (52.9% vs 49.0%), and non-relapse mortality (31.6% vs 28.2%). In contrast, overall survival was significantly lower in the homo-to-hetero group than in the hetero-to-hetero group (12.6% vs 26.2%, p = 0.0308). The inferior effect of homo-to-hetero transplantation on overall survival remained significant in multivariate analyses.

Abstract
ABSTRACT TCRαβ/CD19 cell depletion is a promising graft manipulation technique frequently used in the context of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). We previously reported the results of a phase I-II clinical trial (NCT01810120) to assess the safety and the efficacy of this type of exvivo T-cell depletion in 80 children with acute leukemia, showing promising survival outcomes. We now report an updated analysis on a cohort of 213 children with a longer follow-up (median, 47.6 months for surviving patients). With a 5-year cumulative incidence of nonrelapse mortality of 5.2% (95% confidence interval [CI], 2.8%-8.8%) and a cumulative incidence of relapse of 22.7% (95% CI, 16.9%-29.2%), projected 10-year overall and disease-free survival (DFS) were 75.4% (95% CI, 68.6%-80.9%) and 71.6% (95% CI, 64.4%-77.6%), respectively. Cumulative incidence of both grade II-IV acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease were low (14.7% and 8.1%, respectively). In a multivariable analysis for DFS including type of disease, use of total body irradiation in the conditioning regimen (hazard ratio [HR], 0.5; 95% CI, 0.26-0.98; P = .04), disease status at HSCT (complete remission [CR] ≥3 vs CR 1/2; HR, 2.23; 95% CI, 1.20-4.16; P = .01), and high levels of pre-HSCT minimal residual disease (HR, 2.09; 95% CI, 1.01-4.33; P = .04) were independently associated with outcome. In summary, besides confirming the good outcome results already reported (which are almost superimposable on those of transplant from HLA-matched donors), this clinical update allows the identification of patients at higher risk of treatment failure for whom personalized approaches, aimed at reducing the risk of relapse, are warranted.

Abstract
Relapse is a major cause of treatment failure in haploidentical haematopoietic progenitor cell transplant (HPCT) with PTCy. Natural killer cells suppress graft versus host disease and mediate the graft versus leukaemia effect, driven by killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). Emerging research suggests that donor KIR genotype may influence graft outcome in haploidentical transplants with varying impacts between patient cohorts. This study investigates whether donors with greater KIR B motifs associate with outcomes such as greater relapse-free survival (RFS), overall survival (OS), nonrelapse mortality (NRM), acute graft versus host disease (GvHD) and infection. The study cohort included 98 haploidentical donor-recipient (D/R) pairs (myeloablative n = 37, RIC n = 61) with various haematological malignancies, receiving primary T-cell replete haploidentical HSCT with PTCγ. Following KIR SSO genotyping, donors are categorised into neutral (n = 63) or better and best (n = 35), based on KIR B motif content. Kaplan-Meier and Cox regression survival functions are performed to investigate associations with outcomes. Our results show that the better and best category has significantly poorer RFS (p = 0.013; hazard ratio [HR] 3.16, 95% CI 1.21-8.24: p = 0.018). The greater risk of relapse associated with poorer OS (p = 0.011; HR 2.24, 95% CI 1.18-4.24: p = 0.01) in the better and best category. The competing KIR receptor-ligand and missing licensing proof models failed to predict transplant outcomes. Here, we show neutral donors associate with favourable outcomes in T-cell replete haplo-HPCT with PTCγ after categorisation using the KIR B content model, due to the increased risk of relapse associated with the use of better and best donors.

Abstract
Haploidentical donor stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) has made great advances in recent decades. The granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)- and antithymocyte globulin (ATG)-based protocol, which is known as the Beijing Protocol, represents one of the current T-cell repletion strategies in haplo-SCT. The key elements of the Beijing Protocol for graft versus host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis include G-CSF inducing T-cell tolerance and altering graft cell components, as well as ATG administration exerting an immunoregulatory effect for intensive prophylaxis. This review will summarize the GvHD incidence, the underlying novel mechanism for GvHD prophylaxis, how to optimize GvHD prophylaxis, and the recent advances of the Beijing Protocol, mainly focusing on the issues of GvHD.

Abstract
This meta-analysis was to evaluate the outcome of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Haplo-HSCT) for aplastic anemia (AA) compared with matched related donor (MRD)-HSCT, matched unrelated donor (MUD)-HSCT, and immunosuppressive therapy (IST). Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, WanFang, and VIP databases were searched for relevant studies from inception to 22 June 2022. Relative risk (RR) was used to indicate the effect indicator, with a 95% confidence interval (CI) being applied to express the effect size. A subgroup analysis based on the literature quality (low, fair, and high) was applied. Totally, 25 studies were included in this study, comprising 2252 patients. Our findings demonstrated no difference between Haplo-HSCT and MRD-HSCT in 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival (OS), failure-free survival (FFS), and engraftment. However, Haplo-HSCT had higher incidences of II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), chronic GVHD (cGVHD), and cytomegalovirus infection. There were no differences in 3- and 5-year OS, 3-year FFS, platelet engraftment, graft failure (GF), II-IV grade of aGVHD, and complication between Haplo-HSCT and MUD-HSCT; however, Haplo-HSCT had a lower incidence of cGVHD. Compared with IST, Haplo-HSCT had a higher 3-year FFS and 3- and 6-month response rate. However, there were no differences in 3- and 5-year OS, and 12-month response rate between Haplo-HSCT and IST. This study suggests that Haplo-HSCT may be a realistic therapeutic option for AA, which may provide a reference for decision-making.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cytomegalovirus reactivation (CMV-R) is a significant complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT), especially in human leukocyte antigen-haploidentical transplantation (haplo-HCT) with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). Prophylactic letermovir (LTV) prevents CMV-R in patients undergoing allo-HCT. However, evidence regarding its use in haplo-HCTs with PTCy is limited. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the efficacy of prophylactic LTV in haplo-HCT with PTCy. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 52 patients seropositive for CMV who underwent haplo-HCT with PTCy at our institution between January 2015 and June 2021 and compared patients who received LTV prophylaxis (LTV group: n = 29) with those who did not receive prophylaxis for CMV (control group: n = 23). The primary endpoint was the 100-day cumulative CMV-R incidence. We used Gray's test and the Fine and Gray test to compare the two groups. RESULTS The 100-day cumulative CMV-R incidence was lower in the LTV group than in the control group (17.2% vs 81.8%, p < 0.001). Multivariate analysis revealed that prophylactic LTV reduced the 100-day cumulative CMV-R incidence (hazard ratio: 0.17, 95% confidence interval: 0.06-0.44, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Prophylactic LTV effectively prevents CMV-R in patients undergoing haplo-HCT for PTCy.

Abstract
Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment for some patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) who are refractory to chemotherapy. Cord blood transplantation (CBT) is a reasonable option in such cases because of its rapid availability. Recently, a growing number of human leucocyte antigen (HLA)-haploidentical related donor HSCTs (haplo-HSCTs) have been performed, although its effectiveness remains undetermined. Using the Japanese nationwide transplantation registry data, we identified 2438 patients aged ≥16 years who received CBT or haplo-HSCT as their first transplant for non-remission AML between January 2008 and December 2018. After 2:1 propensity score matching, 918 patients in the CBT group and 459 patients in the haplo-HSCT group were selected. In this matched cohort, no significant difference in overall survival (OS) was observed between the CBT and haplo-HSCT groups (hazard ratio [HR] of haplo-HSCT to CBT 1.02, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.89-1.16). Similarly, no significant difference in the cumulative incidence of relapse (HR 1.09, 95% CI 0.93-1.28) or non-relapse mortality (HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.76-1.18). Subgroup analysis showed that CBT was significantly associated with preferable OS in patients receiving myeloablative conditioning. Our data showed comparable outcomes between haplo-HSCT and CBT recipients with non-remission AML.

BACKGROUND The use of unmanipulated haploidentical stem cell transplantations (haplo-HSCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY) in children has emerged as an acceptable alternative to the patients without a matched donor. However, the timing of calcineurin inhibitors (CNI) used in combination with PTCY is increasingly becoming a topic of controversy. METHOD We evaluated 49 children with acute leukemia who underwent unmanipulated haplo-HSCT with PTCY according to the initiation day of CNIs (pre- or post-CY). RESULTS There were no significant differences in the overall survival analysis between the two groups. The cumulative incidence of relapse at 2 years was 21.2% in the pre-CY group and 38.9% in the post-CY group (p=0.33). Cytokine release syndrome (CRS) was observed more frequently in the post-CY group (p=0.04). The OS and EFS at 2 years in patients with and without CRS in the pre-Cy group were 42.9% vs 87.5% (p=0.04) and 38.1% vs 87.5% (p=0.04), respectively. CONCLUSION Our study shows that the argument for starting CNI administration after CY is tenuous, and the rationale for not starting CNI before CY needs to be reconsidered.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been proposed as a promising therapeutic opportunity to improve immunity and prevent hematologic malignancies in Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T). However, experience in the transplantation strategy for A-T patients is still scarce. The aim of this study was to investigate whether different approaches of HSCT are feasible in regard to graft versus host response and sufficient concerning functional immune reconstitution. Atm-deficient mice were treated with a clinically relevant non-myeloablative host-conditioning regimen and transplanted with CD90.2-depleted, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing, and ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM)-competent bone marrow donor cells in a syngeneic, haploidentical or allogeneic setting. Like syngeneic HSCT, haploidentical HSCT, but not allogeneic HSCT extended the lifespan of Atm-deficient mice through the reduction of thymic tumors and normalized T-cell numbers. Donor-derived splenocytes isolated from transplanted Atm-deficient mice filled the gap of cell loss in the naïve T-cell population and raised CD4 cell functionality up to wild-type level. Interestingly, HSCT using heterozygous donor cells let to a significantly improved survival of Atm-deficient mice and increased CD4 cell numbers as well as CD4 cell functionality equivalent to HSCT using with wild-type donor cells. Our data provided evidence that haploidentical HSCT could be a feasible strategy for A-T, possibly even if the donor is heterozygous for ATM. However, this basic research cannot substitute any research in humans.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There is no information on the impact of donor type in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) using homogeneous graft-versus-host (GVHD) prophylaxis with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS We retrospectively analyzed outcomes of adult patients with ALL in CR1 that had received HCT with PTCy as GVHD prophylaxis from HLA-matched sibling (MSD) (n = 78), matched unrelated (MUD) (n = 94) and haploidentical family (Haplo) (n = 297) donors registered in the EBMT database between 2010 and 2018. The median follow-up period of the entire cohort was 2.2 years. RESULTS Median age of patients was 38 years (range 18-76). Compared to MSD and MUD, Haplo patients received peripheral blood less frequently. For Haplo, MUD, and MSD, the cumulative incidence of 100-day acute GVHD grade II-IV and III-IV, and 2-year chronic and extensive chronic GVHD were 32%, 41%, and 34% (p = 0.4); 13%, 15%, and 15% (p = 0.8); 35%, 50%, and 42% (p = 0.01); and 11%, 17%, and 21% (p = 0.2), respectively. At 2 years, the cumulative incidence of relapse and non-relapse mortality was 20%, 20%, and 28% (p = 0.8); and 21%, 18%, and 21% (p = 0.8) for Haplo, MUD, and MSD, respectively. The leukemia-free survival, overall survival and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival for Haplo, MUD, and MSD was 59%, 62%, and 51% (p = 0.8); 66%, 69%, and 62% (p = 0.8); and 46%, 44%, and 35% (p = 0.9), respectively. On multivariable analysis, transplant outcomes did not differ significantly between donor types. TBI-based conditioning was associated with better LFS. CONCLUSIONS Donor type did not significantly affect transplant outcome in patient with ALL receiving SCT with PTCy.

Abstract
Cytokine release syndrome (CRS), occurring in more than 70% of HLA-haploidentical hematopoietic stem-cell transplantations with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT/CY-haplo), can lead to hemodynamic instability and worsen clinical outcomes. A calcineurin inhibitor is initiated after cyclophosphamide administration in the commonly used PT/CY regimens. Here, we conducted a phase I/II, prospective, single-center trial of PT/CY-haplo to evaluate the safety and efficacy of cyclophosphamide on days 3 and 5 along with cyclosporin and mycophenolate mofetil started from day - 1. Thirty-five adults with hematologic malignancies were enrolled. Myeloablative and reduced-intensity conditioning were used in 25 and 10 patients, respectively. Graft sources were bone marrow in 11 patients and mobilized peripheral blood stem cells in 24 patients. Disease-free survival on day 100, the primary endpoint, was 86% (95% confidence interval (CI), 69-94), which was over the predefined threshold of 50%. Unexpectedly, only 20% (95% CI, 8.4-37) of patients developed fever of > 38 °C early after graft infusion, all CRS grade 1, and all of which resolved just after cyclophosphamide administration. The cumulative incidences of grades II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), III-IV acute GVHD, and moderate-severe chronic GVHD were 23% (95% CI, 11-38), 6% (95% CI, 1-17), and 11% (95% CI, 4-25), respectively. The 3-year overall survival rate was 49% (95% CI, 31-64). Our results suggest that administration of cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil prior to PT/CY can reduce the frequency and severity of CRS without increasing GVHD.

Abstract
Results of 2 parallel phase 2 trials of transplantation of unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) or bone marrow (BM) from HLA-haploidentical relatives provided equipoise for direct comparison of these donor sources. Between June 2012 and June 2018, 368 patients aged 18 to 70 years with chemotherapy-sensitive lymphoma or acute leukemia in remission were randomly assigned to undergo UCB (n = 186) or haploidentical (n = 182) transplant. Reduced-intensity conditioning comprised total-body irradiation with cyclophosphamide and fludarabine for both donor types. Graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis for UCB transplantation was cyclosporine and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and for haploidentical transplantation, posttransplant cyclophosphamide, tacrolimus, and MMF. The primary end point was 2-year progression-free survival (PFS). Treatment groups had similar age, sex, self-reported ethnic origin, performance status, disease, and disease status at randomization. Two-year PFS was 35% (95% confidence interval [CI], 28% to 42%) compared with 41% (95% CI, 34% to 48%) after UCB and haploidentical transplants, respectively (P = .41). Prespecified analysis of secondary end points recorded higher 2-year nonrelapse mortality after UCB, 18% (95% CI, 13% to 24%), compared with haploidentical transplantation, 11% (95% CI, 6% to 16%), P = .04. This led to lower 2-year overall survival (OS) after UCB compared with haploidentical transplantation, 46% (95% CI, 38-53) and 57% (95% CI 49% to 64%), respectively (P = .04). The trial did not demonstrate a statistically significant difference in the primary end point, 2-year PFS, between the donor sources. Although both donor sources extend access to reduced-intensity transplantation, analyses of secondary end points, including OS, favor haploidentical BM donors. This trial was registered at www.clinicaltrials.gov as #NCT01597778.

Abstract
Compared with standard graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis platforms, post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) after T cell-replete HLA-haploidentical (haplo) bone marrow transplantation (BMT) reduces the risk of grades III to IV acute (a) and chronic (c) GVHD, but maintains similar rates of grade II aGVHD. Given that mild GVHD has been associated with reduced treatment failure in HLA-matched BMT, we evaluated the risk factors for and effects of GVHD on survival in 340 adults with hematologic malignancies who engrafted after nonmyeloablative haplo-BMT with PTCy, mycophenolate mofetil, and tacrolimus. The cumulative incidence at 100 days of grade II and grades III to IV aGVHD were 30% (95% confidence interval [CI], 25% to 35%) and 2% (95% CI, 1% to 4%), respectively. The 1-year cumulative incidence of cGVHD was 10% (95% CI, 7% to 13%). In landmark analyses at 100 days, the 4-year probabilities of overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were, 48% (95% CI, 41% to 56%) and 39% (95% CI, 32% to 47%) for patients without grades II to IV aGVHD, compared with 63% (95% CI, 53% to 73%) and 59% (95% CI, 50% to 71%) for patients with grade II aGVHD (P = .05 and P = .009). In multivariable modeling, when compared with patients who never experienced GVHD, the hazard ratio (HR) for OS and PFS in patients with grade II aGVHD was .78 (95% CI, .54 to 1.13; P = .19) and .69 (95% CI, .48 to .98; P = .04). Higher nucleated cell graft dose was also associated with improved OS (HR, .88; 95% CI, .78 to 1.00; P = .05) and PFS (HR, .89; 95% CI, .79 to 1.0; P = .05) and decreased risk of grades III to IV aGVHD (subdistribution HR, .66; 95% CI, .46 to .96; P = .03). PTCy reduces grades III to IV aGVHD and cGVHD, but retains similar incidence of grade II aGVHD, the development of which improves PFS. Higher nucleated cell graft dose goals may also improve survival after nonmyeloablative haplo-BMT with PTCy.
