Abstract
We sought to identify whether posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) reduces or eliminates the detrimental impact of HLA mismatching on outcomes of HLA-haploidentical related donor transplantation for acute leukemia. Data from 2143 donor-recipient pairs (n = 218 haploidentical sibling; n = 218 offspring; n = 1707 HLA-matched sibling) with acute myeloid or lymphoblastic leukemia were studied. All received a calcineurin inhibitor for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis while high-dose PT-Cy was also given to recipients of haploidentical transplant. Patient age correlated with donor-recipient relationship: haploidentical siblings donated to patients aged 18 to 54 years whereas offspring donated to patients aged 55 to 76 years. Therefore, transplant outcomes were examined separately in the 2 patient age groups. In patients aged 18 to 54 years, there were...
