Abstract
BACKGROUND Graft failure (GF) is a rare but serious complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Prevention of graft failure remains the most advisable approach as there is no clear recommendation for the best strategies for reversing this complication. Administration of growth factor, additional hematopoietic progenitor boost, or a salvage HSCT are current modalities recommended for the treatment of GF. Autologous recovery without evidence of disease relapse occurs rarely in patients with GF, and in the absence of autologous recovery, further salvage transplantation following a second conditioning regimen is a potential treatment option that offers the best chances of long-term disease-free survival. The preconditioning regimens of second HSCT have a significant impact on engraftment and outcome, however, currently there is no consensus on optimal conditioning regimen for second HSCT in patients who have developed GF. Furthermore, a second transplant from a different donor or the same donor is still a matter of debate. OBSERVATIONS We present our experience in managing pediatric patients with acute leukemia who encountered graft failure following stem cell transplantation. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE Although a second transplantation is almost the only salvage method, we illustrate that some pediatric patients with acute leukemia who experience graft failure after an allogeneic stem cell transplant using Myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen may achieve long-term disease-free survival through autologous hematopoiesis recovery.

Second haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with antithymocyte antibody-containing conditioning regimen for graft failure in eight patients with severe aplastic anemia. Sci Rep 2024; 14:2293.

Abstract
The effects of a second haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with an antithymocyte antibody-containing conditioning regimen after graft failure in patients with severe aplastic anemia remain unclear. Eight severe aplastic anemia patients with graft failure with a median age of 12.5 (range, 3-22) years were retrospectively reviewed. At the second transplantation, they received a median mononuclear cell number of 15.7 (range, 11.2-20.9) × 108/kg or a median CD34+ cell number of 6.2 (range, 2.5-17.5) × 106/kg. They were all successfully engrafted, with a median time of 12.5 (range, 11-16) days for neutrophils and 24 (range, 14-50) days for platelets. Three patients developed skin acute graft-versus-host disease Grades I-II, and another 3 developed limited chronic graft-versus-host disease. All patients successfully recovered after treatment with methylprednisolone (0.5-1 mg/kg/day) and tacrolimus. One patient each died of respiratory failure caused by multidrug-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae at 8 months and invasive fungal disease at 23 months after transplantation. Six patients survived with a 5-year estimated overall survival of 75% and a median follow-up time of 61 (range, 8-129) months. A second haploidentical bone marrow transplantation with an antithymocyte antibody-containing conditioning regimen was feasible for saving severe aplastic anemia patients with graft failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A minority of children experience significant graft dysfunction after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) for inborn errors of immunity (IEI). The optimal approach to salvage HSCT is unclear with respect to conditioning regimen and stem cell source. This single-centre retrospective case series reports the outcomes of salvage CD3+TCRαβ/CD19 depleted mismatched family or unrelated donor stem cell transplantation (TCRαβ-SCT) between 2013 - 2022 for graft dysfunction in 12 children with IEI. OBJECTIVES Outcomes of interest were overall survival (OS), event free survival (EFS), graft-versus-host disease (GvHD)-free and event-free survival (GEFS), toxicities, GvHD, viremia and long-term graft function. STUDY DESIGN A retrospective audit of patients who underwent second CD3+TCRαβ/CD19 depleted mismatched donor graft using Treosulfan-based reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning. RESULTS Median age at first HSCT was 8.76 months (range, 2.5 months - 6 years) and at second TCRαβ-SCT was 3.6 years (1.2 - 11 years). Median interval between first and second HSCT was 1.7 years (3 months - 9 years). The primary diagnoses were: severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) (n=5) and non-SCID IEI (n=7). The indications for second HSCT were: primary aplasia (n=1), secondary autologous reconstitution (n=6), refractory aGVHD (n=3) and secondary leukemia (n=1). Donors were either haploidentical parental donors (n=10) or mismatched unrelated donors (n=2). All received TCRαβ/CD19-depleted-PBSC with a median CD34+ cell dose of 9.3 × 106/kg (2.8-32.3 × 106/kg) and a median TCRαβ+ cell dose of 4 × 104/kg (1.3-19.2 × 104/kg). All engrafted with median days to neutrophil and platelet recovery of 15 (12-24) and 12 (9-19). One developed secondary aplasia and one had secondary autologous reconstitution, but both underwent a successful third HSCT. Four (33%) had grade II aGvHD and none had grade III-IV aGvHD. None had cGvHD but one developed extensive cutaneous cGVHD after third HSCT using PBSC and ATG. Nine (75%) were noted to have at least one episode of blood viremia with HHV6 (n=6, 50%), adenovirus (n=6, 50%), EBV (n=3, 25%) or CMV (n=3; 25%). Median duration of follow-up was 2.3 years (range: 0.5 - 10 years) and the 2-year OS, EFS and GEFS were 100% (95% confidence interval, 0-100%), 73% (37-90%) and 73% (37%-90%) respectively. CONCLUSIONS TCRαβ-SCT from mismatched family or unrelated donors, using a chemotherapy only regimen, is a safe alternative donor salvage transplant strategy for second HSCT in patients without a suitably matched donor.

Abstract
Graft failure is a group of complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, which occurs according to different data up to 30%. The group of complications includes primary and secondary graft failure, primary, secondary and transient poor graft function and graft rejection. Diagnostic difficulties consist in the lack of unified diagnostic criteria accepted in the transplantation community and in the dual interpretation of these complications according to the foreign literature. The purpose of this literature review was to identify the most common criteria of different types of graft failure and determine the tactics of diagnosis and treatment. In this review we analyzed data from various literature sources, gave definitions of graft failure and poor graft function. We analyzed the literature data on the methods used to treat these conditions.
