Haploidentical Versus Matched Sibling Donor Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation for Adult Patients With Relapsed/Refractory Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Study From the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.

The results of haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haploHCT) for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) transplanted in active disease remain largely unknown. We retrospectively analyzed adult patients with R/R ALL who underwent haploHCT or matched sibling donor (MSD-HCT) as a first transplantation between 2012 and 2020. The analysis comprised 274 patients, 94 had a haploHCT, and 180 had an MSD-HCT.

Haploidentical related donor compared to HLA-identical donor transplantation for chemosensitive Hodgkin lymphoma patients.

Background: Allogeneic stem cell transplantation from haploidentical donor using an unmanipulated graft and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is growing. Haploidentical transplantation with PT-Cy showed a major activity in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL), reducing the relapse incidence. The most important predictive factor of survival and toxicity was disease status before transplantation, which was better in patients with well controlled disease.

Graft versus host disease in unmanipulated haploidentical marrow transplantation with a modified post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) regimen: an update on 425 patients.

This is an update on acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) in 425 patients with hematologic malignancies, undergoing an unmanipulated haploidentical (HAPLO) graft from related donors, with a modified post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-CY) regimen. All patients received a myeloablative conditioning regimen, either based on thiotepa busulfan fludarabine (TBF), or on full-dose total body irradiation (TBI). The cumulative incidence of acute GvHD-grade II-IV was 29%, and the CI of GvHD-grade III-IV was 4%.
