Outcomes of nonmyeloablative (NMA) haploidentical (haplo) blood or marrow transplant (BMT) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) using non-first-degree relatives are unknown. We evaluated 33 consecutive adult patients (median age, 56 years) with hematologic malignancies who underwent NMA haplo T cell-replete BMT with PTCy at Johns Hopkins using second- or third-degree related donors. Donors consisted of 10 nieces (30%), 9 nephews (27%), 7 first cousins (21%), 5 grandchildren (15%), and 2 uncles (6%). Thirty-one patients (94%) reached full donor chimerism by day 60. The estimated cumulative incidence (CuI) of grades II to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) at day 180 was 24% (90% confidence interval [CI], 9% to 38%). Only 1 patient experienced grades III to IV aGVHD. At 1 year the CuI of chronic GVHD was 10% (90% CI, 0% to 21%). The CuI of nonrelapse mortality at 1 year was 5% (90% CI, 0% to 14%). At 1 year the probability of relapse was 31% (90% CI, 12% to 49%), progression-free survival 64% (90% CI, 48% to 86%), and overall survival 95% (90% CI, 87% to 100%). The 1-year probability of GVHD-free, relapse-free survival was 57% (90% CI, 41% to 79%). NMA haplo BMT with PTCy from non-first-degree relatives is an acceptably safe and effective alternative donor platform, with results similar to those seen with first-degree relatives.

High-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is an effective platform for prevention of severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic bone marrow (BM) transplantation with mismatched unrelated donors (mMUDs). Previous studies evaluating PTCy with mMUDs favored BM allografts over peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) due to concerns that PBSCT may be associated with an increased risk of acute and chronic GVHD. In addition, haploidentical PBSCT is associated with high rates of cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which is another concern with mMUD PBSCT.
