Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Tacrolimus (TAC) plus short-term methotrexate (stMTX) is used for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). TAC blood concentrations are frequently adjusted to enhance the graft-versus-leukemia/lymphoma effect or attenuate severe GVHD. Limited information is available on the clinical impact of these adjustments and the optimal time to perform them in order to achieve good clinical outcomes. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 211 patients who underwent allo-HSCT at our institutes. RESULTS Higher TAC concentrations in week 3 correlated with a significantly higher cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) (P = 0.03) and lower nonrelapse mortality (P = 0.04). The clinical impact of high TAC concentrations in week 3 on CIR was detected in the refined disease risk index: low/intermediate (P = 0.04) and high (P < 0.01), and conditioning regimens other than cyclophosphamide/total body irradiation and busulfan/cyclophosphamide (P = 0.07). Higher TAC concentrations in week 1 correlated with a lower grade 2-4 acute GVHD rate (P = 0.01). Higher TAC concentrations in weeks 2 and 3 correlated with slightly lower (P = 0.05) and significantly lower (P = 0.02) grade 3-4 acute GVHD rates, respectively. Higher TAC concentrations in weeks 1 and 3 were beneficial for severe acute GVHD in patients with a human leukocyte antigen-matched donor (P = 0.03 and P < 0.01, respectively), not treated with anti-thymocyte globulin (P = 0.02 and P = 0.02, respectively), and receiving three stMTX doses (P = 0.03 and P = 0.02, respectively). CONCLUSIONS The clinical impact of TAC concentrations varied according to patient characteristics, including disease malignancy, conditioning regimens, donor sources, and GVHD prophylaxis. These results suggest that TAC management needs to be based on patient profiles.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a cause of late morbidity and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Although studies evaluating haploidentical allo-HSCT (haplo-HSCT) using posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) demonstrate lower cGVHD rates, comprehensive data describing the clinical profile, risk factors, or outcomes of cGVHD within this platform are scarce. METHODS We conducted a retrospective multicenter analysis of 389 consecutive patients who underwent haplo-HSCT PTCy in 7 transplant centers of the Spanish Group Grupo Español de Trasplante Hematopoyético y Terapia Celular (GETH-TC) between 2008 and 2020 describing incidence, clinical profile, risk factors, and cGVHD outcomes. RESULTS Ninety-five patients of 389 developed cGVHD. Our data revealed that the incidence and severity of cGVHD are lower than those reported for HLA-identical transplantation with conventional prophylaxis and that the strongest predictor for cGVHD was previous acute GVHD (P = 0.031). Also, recipient age ≥60 y (P = 0.044) was protective against cGVHD. Moreover, patients with moderate cGVHD had longer event-free survival at 3 y than other patients (P = 0.016) and a lower relapse rate at 3 y (P = 0.036). CONCLUSIONS Our results support the fact that the incidence and severity of cGVHD are lower than those reported for HLA-identical transplantation with conventional prophylaxis. In this series, patients who develop moderate cGVHD after haplo-HSCT PTCy had a higher overall survival and event-free survival, and lower relapse, suggesting higher graft-versus-leukemia effect. Although this is the largest series focused on characterizing cGVHD in haplo-HSCT PTCy, further prospective studies are needed to confirm the findings.

Abstract
Background Eltrombopag has demonstrated efficacy in treating low platelet (PLT) levels, but it remains unclear whether eltrombopag can promote PLT engraftment after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods Forty-one HSCT patients received eltrombopag 50 mg/d from +1 day until PLT >50 × 109/L or 1 month after HSCT. Fifty-one patients in the same period received thrombopoietin (TPO) to promote PLT graft after HSCT and served as a control group. Results A total of 51 patients who applied TPO during the same period were treated as a control. In the eltrombopag group, the median time to white blood cells (WBC) graft was 12 days (range, 10-17 days) and the PLT graft was 15 days (range, 10-30 days), whereas for the patients in the TPO group, the median time to WBC and PLT graft was 12 days (range, 9-23 days) and 15.5 days (range, 9-41 days), respectively. In the first month after HSCT, the median WBC count in the eltrombopag group was 4.41 × 109/L (range, 0.87-40.01 × 109/L) and the median PLT was 89x109/L (range, 30-401 × 109/L); the median WBC and PLT \counts in the TPO group were 4.65 × 109/L (range, 0.99-23.63 × 109/L) and 86 × 109/L (range, 5-512 × 109/L), respectively. Patients in the TPO or eltrombopag group did not experience serious side effects after drug administration, and the difference in side effects on liver and kidney function between the two groups was not statistically significant. Conclusion Eltrombopag is safe and similarly promotes platelet engraftment to thrombopoietin after allogeneic HSCT.

Abstract
Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) for hematologic malignancies with non-remission disease and/or prior post-transplant relapse have poor relapse-free survival. We previously demonstrated the efficacy of haploidentical reduced-intensity HCT regimen with glucocorticoid-based graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. We recently showed a possible association between rabbit antithymocyte globulin (rATG) exposure and acute GVHD (aGVHD) risk, leading to hypothesize that optimization of rATG exposure may further improve this regimen. We retrospectively examined the exposure-response association of rATG and key clinical outcomes post haploidentical HCT. We subsequently developed an individualized rATG dosing that optimizes rATG exposure using a previously developed population pharmacokinetic model. Of the 103 patients analyzed, the median age was 47 years (range: 17-70) and majority had a non-remission disease prior to HCT (88%). rATG concentration on day 0 of HCT (Cday_0 ) was the strongest predictor of Grade 2-4 aGVHD through day +100. Patients with Cday_0 ≥ 20 μg/mL had an approximately 3-fold lower risk of Grade 2-4 aGVHD (hazard ratio [HR]: 0.32, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.16, 0.62) and Grade 3-4 aGVHD (HR: 0.33, 95% CI: 0.16, 0.68) as well as an approximately 2-fold lower risk of overall mortality (HR: 0.47, 95% CI: 0.28, 0.77) and relapse (HR: 0.50, 95% CI: 0.26, 0.94). In conclusion, this reduced-intensity haploidentical HCT regimen with exposure-optimized rATG may provide a promising option to patients undergoing high-risk HCT for hematologic malignancy. The developed rATG dosing warrant prospective validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As the Japanese population may have less genetic diversity than other ethnic groups, treatment outcomes may be affected when allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation is performed in other races. However, evidence explaining the effect of racial differences is limited. METHODS We used the Japanese National Database to examine the outcomes of first allogeneic bone marrow transplantations (BMTs) performed between Japanese and non-Japanese patients from 1996 to 2021. We performed propensity score matching using sex, age group, underlying disease group, HLA mismatch, conditioning regimen intensity, and BMT implementation age to select Japanese-to-Japanese BMT patients as the controls. RESULTS The numbers of non-Japanese-to-Japanese and Japanese-to-non-Japanese BMT cases included in the analysis were 48 and 75, respectively, and the following outcomes were compared: overall survival, non-relapse mortality, acute graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) ≥ grade II, chronic GVHD, and engraftment of neutrophils and platelets. Most parameters did not differ when comparing BMTs according to ethnicity; only platelet engraftment was delayed in Japanese-to-non-Japanese BMT but not in non-Japanese-to-Japanese BMT. CONCLUSIONS The results of this study suggested that BMT performed in Japanese and non-Japanese patients has little effect on treatment outcomes. The results of this study may be useful for donor selection in Japan, where internationalization has progressed in recent years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Extended family donor search other than siblings may yield an HLA matched donor in communities with high rate of consanguinity. The outcome of patients who are transplanted from non-sibling matched related donors (NS-MRD) including engraftment and graft versus host disease (GVHD) are scarce in comparison with matched sibling donor (MSD). METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the outcome of all our pediatric hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) patients who had non-sibling matched related donor and controlled them with matched sibling donor HSCT (based on age, indication of HSCT, conditioning regimen, GVHD prophylaxis, serotherapy, stem cell source and cytomegalovirus status). RESULTS A total of 76 patients were reviewed during study period. Thirty patients (39.5%) in NS-MRD arm and 46 patients in MSD (60.5%) were identified after matching in age, disease, and conditioning regimens. All patients had similar approach including stem cell source and GVHD prophylaxis (CNI + 2nd agent). Out of the NS-MRD group, 18 patients (59%) had one of their parents as a donor and the rest as second degree relatives. Both groups were equally distributed and were homogeneous. Both groups had no statistically significant difference in outcome including engraftment, GVHD and Chimerism tests results. GVHD was seen in (13%) NS-MRD patients compared to (11%) in MSD patients. All patients remain alive with median follow up of 1249 days (431-3525). CONCLUSIONS This study showed no significant difference in allogenic HSCT outcomes between matched sibling donors and non-sibling matched related donors and support using the same management approach in terms of conditioning therapy, GVHD prophylaxis, and serotherapy only if indicated.

Abstract
This Japanese nationwide retrospective study investigated the impact of HLA-mismatched unrelated transplantation for adult T-cell leukemia-lymphoma (ATL) patients who received transplantation between 2000 and 2018. We compared 6/6 antigen-matched related donor (MRD), 8/8 allele-matched unrelated donor (8/8MUD), and 1 allele-mismatched unrelated donor (7/8MMUD) in the graft-versus-host direction. We included 1191 patients; 449 (37.7%) were in the MRD group, 466 (39.1%) in the 8/8MUD group, and 276 (23.7%) in the 7/8MMUD group. In the 7/8MMUD group, 97.5% of patients received bone marrow transplantation, and no patients received post-transplant cyclophosphamide. The cumulative incidences of non-relapse mortality (NRM) and relapse at 4 years, and the probabilities of overall survival at 4 years in the MRD group were 24.7%, 44.4%, 37.5%, in the 8/8MUD group were 27.2%, 38.2%, and 37.9%, and in the 7/8MMUD group were 34.0%, 34.4%, and 35.3%, respectively. The 7/8MMUD group had a higher risk of NRM (hazard ratio (HR) 1.50 [95% CI, 1.13-1.98; P = 0.005]) and a lower risk of relapse (HR 0.68 [95% CI, 0.53-0.87; P = 0.003]) than the MRD group. The donor type was not a significant risk factor for overall mortality. These data suggest that 7/8MMUD is an acceptable alternative donor when an HLA-matched donor is unavailable.

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
BACKGROUND Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment modality for a range of hematological disorders including malignancies. The increasing volumes of HSCTs impact transfusion services and the requirement of blood products vary depending on the primary disease, type and phase of transplant, and the HSCT donor type. MATERIALS AND METHODS This study analyzed the factors affecting blood component requirements in patients undergoing HSCT. The authors studied the transfusion requirement of packed red blood cells (PRBC) and platelets (PLT) up to 100 days post-transplant among 617 adult patients undergoing HSCT during the study period (2007-2019). RESULTS Requirement of PRBC and PLT was significantly higher (P < 0.05) in allogenic HSCT cases across all three phases of transplant compared to autologous HSCT. Unlike PRBC requirement, the PLT requirement was significantly higher during peri-transplant period for haploidentical HSCT and major ABO-incompatible HSCT group compared to matched related donor HSCT and ABO identical HSCT, respectively. In subset analysis based on diagnosis with leukemia as reference, the multiple myeloma group required less while the anemia group required more PRBC and PLT transfusions. The leukemia group required more PRBC than lymphoma group, while the PLT requirement was vice-versa. CONCLUSION Factors such as allogeneic HSCT, haploidentical donor type, major ABO-incompatible HSCT, and primary diagnosis as leukemia or anemia were the predictors for increased need of blood products. As higher transfusion requirements may translate into increased costs of treatment, a study like this can help in managing blood component inventory and planning treatment costs of a HSCT program.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative treatment modality for select patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), functioning as a restorative agent following intensified chemo- and/or radiotherapy and also engendering the disease-directed immunologic threat of graft-versus-leukemia effect. Advancements in conditioning regimen intensity, donor availability, and supportive care have broadened the eligibility for allogeneic HCT, reduced rates of transplant related mortality, and improved outcomes over time. There are still obstacles to transplant in AML, offering opportunities for ongoing discovery, including poor recipient fitness, insufficient donor availability for certain populations, and limited access to care. Relapse remains the most common cause of treatment failure and a high priority area of investigative efforts. Post-transplant maintenance and novel applications of cellular therapeutics are expected to usher in a new era of promise for successful HCT in AML and will aim to overcome the remaining barriers impeding favorable outcomes for these patients.

Abstract
Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatched unrelated donor transplantation is associated with an increased risk of graft-versus-host disease, graft failure, and infection, which increases post-transplant morbidity and mortality. In this single-center retrospective study, outcomes were evaluated in 30 consecutive children who underwent bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA 1 allele-mismatched (HLA 7/8-matched) unrelated donors with rabbit anti-thymocyte globulin (rATG) as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. The 3-year overall survival (OS), event-free survival (EFS), and GVHD-relapse-free survival rates were 91.7% (95% CI 70.5%-91.9%), 88.3% (95% CI 67.5%-96.1%), and 73.9% (95% CI 52.4%-86.8%), respectively. Grade II-IV and III-IV acute GVHD occurred in 10 (33%) and 2 (7.0%) patients, respectively. The 3-year cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD was 7.8%. No fatal viral infections occurred. The study results show the feasibility of HLA 7/8-matched unrelated BMT with ATG to achieve favorable outcomes and acceptable GVHD, especially for patients who lack a fully matched donor.

Abstract
Prolonged isolated thrombocytopenia (PT) is a life-threatening comorbidity associated with allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Our previous study indicated that dysfunctional bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM MSCs) played a role in PT pathogenesis and that reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation was related to BM MSC senescence and apoptosis. However, the mechanism of the increase in ROS levels in the BM MSCs of PT patients is unknown. In the current case-control study, we investigated whether nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2), which is a central regulator of the cellular anti-oxidant response that can clear ROS in human BM MSCs, was associated with PT after allo-HSCT. We evaluated whether an NRF2 agonist (tert-butylhydroquinone, TBHQ) could enhance BM MSCs from PT patients in vitro. We found that BM MSCs from PT patients exhibited increased ROS levels and reduced NRF2 expression. Multivariate analysis showed that low NRF2 expression was an independent risk factor for primary PT [p = 0.032, Odds ratio (OR) 0.868, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.764-0.988]. In-vitro treatment with TBHQ improved the quantity and function of BM MSCs from PT patients by downregulating ROS levels and rescued the impaired BM MSC support of megakaryocytopoiesis. In conclusion, these results suggested that NRF2 downregulation in human BM MSCs might be involved in the pathogenesis of PT after allo-HSCT and that BM MSC impairment could be improved by NRF2 agonist in vitro. Although further validation is needed, our data indicate that NRF2 agonists might be a potential therapeutic approach for PT patients after allo-HSCT.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Since well-designed prospective comparative trials are lacking, haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantations approach should be based on the expertise of a particular center. In this study, we aimed to report the results and outcomes of patients who underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS : Thirty-nine patients who underwent transplantation in our clinic between 2015 and 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Primary end point of this study is to find out the survival rates of the patients. RESULTS The overall survival of patients was 29.9 ± 4.9 months. The disease-free survival of the patients was 37.8 ± 5.7 months. The 3-year overall survival rate of the patients was %50 and the 3-year disease-free survival rate of the patients was %53. Nineteen patients were nonsurvivors among a total of 39 patients. Busulfan-fludarabine-thiotepa was the most frequently used conditioning regimen for transplantation. Busulfan-fludarabin-antithymocyte globulin regimen is the second preferred conditioning regimen. Cyclosporine- cyclophosphamide-mycophenolate mofetil was the most widely used graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis regimen. Sixteen patients had graft-versus-host disease, 28% of the patients had acute graft-versus-host disease, and 13% had chronic graft-versus-host disease. Gastrointestinal system consists of the most involved organs in graft-versus-host disease since 15% of the patients had gastrointestinal graft-versus-host disease. First-degree relatives (parent/child) were the most frequent donor source for haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Sepsis was the most frequent reason of death among transplant patients. DISCUSSION In our center, we prefer to use high dose posttransplantation cyclophosphamide after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis. With this approach, our center's overall survival and disease-free survival rates are comparable and compatible with the literature findings.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation using post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis has emerged as a valid alternative transplant strategy for patients lacking a suitable HLA-matched related donor. The high risk of severe GVHD remains the major clinical challenge in this setting. The addition of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) in PTCy-based regimens for GVHD reduction in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is rational and was reported in adult series. However, its feasibility is unknown in pediatric patients. Here, we firstly describe our experience of 15 consecutive children with high-risk malignancies receiving haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation using ATG plus PTCy for GVHD prophylaxis. Only three patients developed grade 1-2 acute GVHD, limited to skin. No grade 3-4 acute GVHD and chronic GVHD were observed. Viral reactivations were frequently seen but manageable. Six patients relapsed, as the main cause of death in our series. None died from events related to GVHD. Our data suggest that ATG plus PTCy is an effective strategy for GVHD prevention in haploidentical peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and is feasible in children with high-risk malignancies.

Abstract
Delayed platelet engraftment (DPE) is associated with poor survival and increased transplantation-related mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Therefore, treatments are needed to improve platelet engraftment and prevent DPE. We performed a phase three, non-inferior, randomized controlled study of eltrombopag or recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) to promot platelet engraftment after allo-HSCT. Candidates for allo-HSCT were randomly assigned to receive oral eltrombopag (50 mg daily) or subcutaneous rhTPO (15000U daily) from the first-day post-transplantation. The primary endpoint was the cumulative numbers of platelet engraftment (platelet recovery ≥20 × 109 /L, without transfusion, for seven consecutive days) on day 60 after transplantation. We performed intention-to-treat analyses with a non-inferior margin of -15%. A total of 92 participants underwent randomization. 44 and 48 patients were randomized to the eltrombopag and rhTPO groups, respectively. The median duration of follow-up was 360 days (range: 12-960 days). The cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment on day 60 after transplantation in eltrombopag group was 86.4% (38/44) compared with 85.4% (41/48) in the rhTPO group (absolute risk difference [ARD] 1%, one-sided lower limit of 95% confidence interval [CI] -13.28%, Pnon-inferirioty = 0.014). The rate of DPE in the eltrombopag group was 6.8% (3/44) compared with 12.5% (6/48) in the rhTPO group (ARD -5.7%, one-sided higher limit of 95% CI 6.28%, Pnon-inferirioty = 0.063). Approximately, three-fourths of non-hematologic adverse events were not observed in the eltrombopag group but three patients (3/48, 6%) experienecd them in the rhTPO group. In addition, platelet transfusions unite from day 0 to day 21, or from day 22 to day 60, progression-free survival, overall survival were not significantly different between both groups. Eltrombopag was non-inferior to rhTPO in promoting platelet engraftment post allo-HSCT for patients with hematological malignancy. Oral eltrombopag was more convenient for patients than subcutaneous rhTPO (NCT03515096).

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) can be used as an alternative procedure in the absence of HLA-compatible donors. The use of high doses of cyclophosphamide after infusion improves the prognosis and eliminates the need for T cell depletion in vivo. Among the main complications of haplo-HSCT are acute graft-versus-host disease (a-GVHD) and cytokine release syndrome (CRS). This is a systemic inflammatory response that leads to the release of inflammatory proteins, including IL-6. This syndrome has several clinical features, with mild to severe symptoms. This study aimed to compare plasma IL-6 levels in patients submitted to different HSCT types and to associate them with the presence of acute graft versus host disease (a-GVHD), CRS and survival. METHODS A total of 84 patients (22 haploidentical and 62 non-haploidentical) were evaluated at different times. The IL-6 levels in haplo and non-haplo-HSCT recipients were measured before transplantation and on days D7, D14, D28, D60, and D100. RESULTS IL-6 levels were higher in haplo-HSCT recipients than in non-haplo-HSCT recipients, remaining elevated from D14 until D100 (P = 0.006) and a cut off ≥11 pg/mL on D7, which is related to worse overall survival. In our study, we found no association with a-GVHD (P = 0.239), a common complication of this type of transplant, but we found a relationship between the increase in IL-6 and CRS (P = 0.021). CONCLUSION IL6 can be used as a biomarker for patients submitted to haplo-HSCT, allowing clinical interference in patients having levels of IL-6 times larger than normality values, avoiding early death in this group of patients.

Abstract
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from a related donor with an human leukocyte antigen (HLA) 1-antigen mismatch without in vivo T cell depletion is associated with an elevated risk of severe, acute, and chronic graft-versus-host (GVH) disease (GVHD) and poor survival. Therefore, we conducted a multicenter phase II trial of HSCT using low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG, thymoglobulin). We recruited patients aged 16–65 years with leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or lymphoma who planned to receive HSCT from a related donor with HLA 1-antigen mismatch in the GVH direction at the HLA-A, -B, or -DR locus. Pretransplantation ATG was administered with standard GVHD prophylaxis consisting of tacrolimus and methotrexate. Thirty-eight patients were eligible for the analysis. The 1-year GVHD-free relapse-free survival (GRFS) was 47%. The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 57%. Age of less than 50 years was associated with better OS. OS in patients with high/very high refined disease risk indexes (rDRIs) was comparable to that in those with low/intermediate rDRIs. The 100-day cumulative incidences of grades II–IV and III–IV acute GVHD were 45% and 18%, respectively. HSCT from a related donor with two allele mismatches showed higher incidences of grades II–IV and III–IV acute GVHD. Three-year cumulative incidences of moderate to severe or severe chronic GVHD were 13% and 3%, respectively. HSCT from a related donor with one locus mismatch at the antigen level using low-dose ATG showed lower incidences of acute and chronic GVHD, which led to acceptable GRFS, OS, relapse, and nonrelapse mortality.

Abstract
Haploidentical donors are increasingly used for patients requiring hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Although several factors have been associated with transplant outcomes, the impact of HLA disparity in haploidentical HSCT (haplo-HSCT) remains unclear. We investigated the impact of HLA disparity quantified by mismatched eplets (ME) load of each HLA locus on the clinical outcome of 278 consecutive haploidentical transplants. Here, we demonstrated that the degree of HLA molecular mismatches, at individual HLA loci, may be relevant to clinical outcome in the haplo-HSCT. A significantly better overall survival was associated with higher ME load from HLA-A (hazard ratio [HR], 0.97; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.95-0.99; P = .003) and class I loci (HR, 0.99; 95% CI, 0.97-0.99; P = .045) in the host-versus-graft direction. The apparent survival advantage of HLA-A ME was primarily attributed to reduced risk in relapse associated with an increase in HLA-A ME load (subdistribution HR, 0.95; 95% CI, 0.92-0.98; P = .004). Furthermore, we have identified an association between the risk of grade 3-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and a higher ME load at HLA-B and class I loci in graft-versus-host (GVH) direction. Additionally, GVH nonpermissive HLA-DPB1 mismatch defined by T-cell epitope grouping was significantly associated with relapse protection (subdistribution HR, 0.19; 95% CI, 0.06-0.59; P = .004) without a concurrent increase in GVHD. These findings indicate that alloreactivity generated by HLA disparity at certain HLA loci is associated with transplant outcomes, and ME analysis of individual HLA loci might assist donor selection and risk stratification in haplo-HSCT.

Abstract
Haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HaploHCT) is an alternative treatment option for patients without a suitable 10/10 HLA matched donor. We share an updated experience at our center of using in vivo dual T-cell depletion with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) and post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in peripheral blood haploHCT and report the impact of reducing the dose of ATG from 4.5 mg/kg to 2 mg/kg on post-transplantation complications and outcomes. Ninety-five consecutive adults underwent haploHCT at our center between August 2016 and February 2020, all of whom were included in the study. Nine (9.5%) patients received myeloablative conditioning, and 86 (90.5%) patients underwent reduced-intensity haploHCT. All patients received thymoglobulin, PTCy and cyclosporine (CsA) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis: Sixty (63.2%) patients received 4.5 mg/kg, and 35 (36.8%) patients received 2 mg/kg of ATG. Clinical information was collected retrospectively and updated in June 2020. The median age was 57 (18-73), and acute myeloid leukemia was the most prevalent diagnosis (58.9%). The day 100 cumulative incidence of grade II-IV and grade III-IV aGVHD, and 1-year moderate/severe cGVHD were 22.3%, 11.1%, and 20.2%, respectively. Those patients who received 2 mg/kg of ATG had higher incidence of grade III-IV aGVHD (23.9% vs 3.5%, P = .006) and comparable moderate/severe cGVHD (1-year 20.6% vs 19.8%, P = .824) than those patients who received 4.5 mg/kg. Overall, the 18-month overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), and non-relapse mortality (NRM) were 43.8%, 38.4%, and 40.2%, respectively. The reduction of the ATG dose did not have a significant impact in OS (hazard ratio [HR] 1.06, P = .847), RFS (HR 0.984, P = .955), and in NRM (HR 1.38; P = .348). The reduction of the ATG resulted in a negative impact on aGVHD without conferring any benefit in OS, RFS, and NRM. Consequently, the ATG dose used at our institution in combination with PTCy and CsA for haploHCT continues to be 4.5 mg/kg.

Abstract
The use of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is
recommended during the first complete remission of acute myeloid leukemia (AML)
and high-risk myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). However, only 30% of these cases
have fully matched sibling donors (MSDs). Alternatively, matched unrelated
donors (MUDs) and haploidentical (haplo) donors from first-degree relatives
increase the access to transplantation, with some reported differences in
outcomes. The current systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted with the
aim of summarizing the results of those studies to compare the efficacy and
toxicity of MSD-HSCT and MUD-HSCT versus haplo-HSCT for patients with AML or
MDS. Articles published before September 15, 2018, were individually searched
for in two databases (MEDLINE and EMBASE) by two investigators. The effect
estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) from each eligible study were
combined using the Mantel–Haenszel method. A total of 14 studies met the
eligibility criteria and were included in the meta-analysis. The overall
survival rates were not significantly different between the groups, with pooled
odds ratios of the chance of surviving at the end of the study when comparing
haplo-HSCT to MSD-HSCT and comparing haplo-HSCT to MUD-HSCT of 0.85 (95% CI:
0.70 to 1.04; I2 = 0%) and 1.12 (95% CI: 0.89 to 1.41; I2 = 33%), respectively. The pooled analyses of other outcomes also
showed comparable results, except for the higher grade 2 to 4 acute
graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) for patients who received haplo-HSCT than those
who received MSD-HSCT, and the better GvHD-free, relapse-free survival and the
lower chronic GvHD than the patients in the MUD-HSCT group. These observations
suggest that haplo-HSCT is a reasonable alternative with comparable efficacy if
MSD-HSCT and MUD-HSCT cannot be performed. Nonetheless, the primary studies
included in this meta-analysis were observational in nature, and
randomized-controlled trials are still needed to confirm the efficacy of
haplo-HSCT.

Abstract
The Predicted Indirectly Recognizable HLA Epitopes (PIRCHE) score quantifies the number of PIRCHEs in patient-donor pairs and represents an in silico measure of indirect alloreactivity. This biologic process is defined as T cell recognition of epitopes derived from mismatched, allogeneic HLA peptides that are subsequently presented by shared HLA molecules. Its association with clinical outcome has not been examined in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy). We hypothesized that the PIRCHE score (PS) would correlate with indirect alloreactivity and predict graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) risk and the incidence of relapse after haplo-HCT with PTCy. We retrospectively analyzed 148 patients who underwent peripheral blood stem cell T cell-replete haplo-HCT with PTCy at a single center between 2009 and 2016. For each patient-donor pair, the PS was calculated using the PIRCHE online matching tool. PSs were categorized by class and vector. The median class I graft-versus-host (GVH) PS was 11 (range, 0 to 56), and the median class I host-versus-graft (HVG) PS was 10 (range, 0 to 51). Class I GVH PS was associated with increased risk of grade II-IV acute GVHD (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.03 per PS unit increase; 95% confidence interval, 1.01 to 1.05; P= .008) but not of chronic GVHD or relapse. Our data show that use of the PS is a novel strategy for predicting clinical outcome in haplo-HCT; further studies using registry data and prospective cohorts are warranted to validate these findings.

Abstract
HLA disparity is traditionally measured at the antigen or allele level, and its impact on haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) with high-dose posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is unclear. To the best of our knowledge, the relationship between HLA eplet-derived epitope mismatch (EM) and clinical outcome has not been examined in haplo-HCT. We retrospectively analyzed 148 patients who received a peripheral blood, T-cell-replete haplo-HCT with PTCy at a single center. HLA EM was quantified using an HLAMatchmaker-based method and was stratified by class and vector. The primary outcome was incidence of relapse. The total number of mismatched epitopes (MEs) per patient-donor pair in our patient population ranged from 0 to 51 (median, 24) in the graft-versus-host (GVH) direction and 0 to 47 (median, 24) in the host-versus-graft (HVG) direction. Higher HLA class II EM in the GVH direction was associated with a significantly reduced risk of relapse (adjusted hazard ratio [HR], 0.952 per ME; P = .002) and improved relapse-free survival (adjusted HR, 0.974 per ME; P = .020). Higher HLA class II EM in the HVG direction was associated with longer time to neutrophil (adjusted HR, 0.974 per ME; P = .013) and platelet (adjusted HR, 0.961 per ME; P = .001) engraftment. In peripheral blood haplo-HCT patients, increased HLA EM was associated with a protective effect on the risk of relapse in the GVH direction but a negative effect on time to count recovery in the HVG direction. HLA EM based on the HLA Matchmaker represents a novel strategy to predict clinical outcome in haplo-HCT.

Background: While haploidentical transplantation has led to the near-universal availability of donors, several challenges for this form of transplant still exist. This study sought to investigate the rates of infection-related mortality and other complications following haploidentical vs nonhaploidentical transplant. Methods: We conducted a retrospective cohort study in adults with various malignant and benign hematological conditions who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from 2011 to 2018. One hundred-day and 1-year overall survival were defined as survival from the time of transplant until 100 days or 1 year later. Results: A total of 187 patients were included in this study, with 45 (24.1%) receiving transplants from haploidentical donors and 142 (75.9%) from nonhaploidentical donors. There were similar rates of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (40% vs 38% in haploidentical vs nonhaploidentical recipients, P=0.86) and chronic GVHD (44.4% vs 43.7%, P=1). Rates of 100-day and 1-year infection-related mortality were significantly higher in the haploidentical group compared to the nonhaploidentical group (8.9% vs 1.4% at 100 days, P=0.03, and 15.9% vs 3.8% at 1 year, P=0.01). There were also higher rates of cytomegalovirus infections (59.1% vs 23.8%, P<0.01), BK virus-associated hemorrhagic cystitis (40.9% vs 8.4%, P<0.01), and BK viremia (15.9% vs 0.8%, P<0.01) in haploidentical recipients. Conclusions: Despite the use of identical antimicrobial prophylactic and treatment agents, haploidentical recipients were found to have significantly increased rates of 100-day and 1-year infection-related mortality as well as several other infectious complications.

Abstract
Use of haploidentical (haplo) donors for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has significantly increased in the last decade. The major advantage with this strategy is universal availability and faster acquisition of the donor, along with affordability and provision of immunotherapy in post-transplantation period. Historically, haplo-HCT was associated with compromised outcomes because of high rates of graft-versus-host disease and graft failure, but after the development of a post-transplantation high-dose cyclophosphamide strategy, which results in selective T-cell depletion, these issues have been addressed to a large extent. Nevertheless, graft failure, high treatment-related mortality due to graft-versus-host disease, infections, delayed immune reconstitution, and disease relapse remain significant concerns. As the experience with haplo-HCTs grows, the clinical outcomes are becoming more at par with those seen with fully matched unrelated donor allogeneic HCTs.

Abstract
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is the sole curative therapy for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). However, there is concern regarding graft failure and relapse in patients who undergo cord blood transplantation (CBT). We conducted a retrospective study of the CBT outcomes in MDS patients using the Japanese Data Center for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation database. Seven hundred fifty-two de novo MDS patients of ≥18 years of age (median, 58 years) undergoing their first CBT between 2001 and 2015 were examined. Two-thirds of the patients were male, and were RAEB. The cumulative incidences of neutrophil and platelet engraftment at day 100 were 77 and 59%, respectively. The 3-year overall survival (OS) was 41% and the median survival of the patients was 1.25 years. A multivariate analysis of pre-transplant variables showed that the age, gender, cytogenetic subgroups, number of RBC transfusions, HCT-CI and year of CBT significantly influenced the outcome. The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was 32 and 21%, respectively. A survival benefit was observed in patients who developed cGVHD, but not aGVHD. Our results suggest that CBT is an acceptable alternative graft and that a graft-versus-MDS effect can be expected, especially in patients who develop cGVHD.

Abstract
Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a severe adverse effect that results from bone marrow or peripheral blood cells transplantation and has a high rate of mortality. About 50% of the patients are accompanied with acute Graft-versus-Host Disease (aGVHD) after bone marrow cell transplantation and need systematic treatment. It has an important clinical significance to evaluate the prevention and treatment effects of GVHD. The stable and reliable approaches of humanized animal models are crucial for advancing on the study the biology of GVHD. Relative models transplanting the human immune cells into the mouse body can trigger immunoreaction similar to the humans. As it is a disease triggered by human immune cells, any intervention research prior to clinical treatment has more clinical interrelations compared with the general animal models. In this review, we update the current understanding on humanized animal disease models on studying Graft-versus-host disease and expect to provide more theoretical basis to further study on Graft-versus-host disease.

Abstract
Background: Studies of haploidentical-related donor (HRD) stem cell transplantation using a combination of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs) and bone marrow as the graft have reported encouraging results for patients with hematological diseases. However, few studies specifically reported transplantation of only PBSCs from HRDs among patients with relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here, the long-term outcomes and side effects of unmanipulated HRD PBSC transplantation (HRD-PBSCT) for relapsed/refractory AML were analyzed. Methods: We performed a retrospective analysis of the outcomes in relapsed/refractory AML patients who underwent PBSCT from HRDs (n = 36). Results: Thirty-one (86.1%) patients in the HRD-PBSCT group achieved platelet recovery. The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in the HRD-PBSCT group was 40.00%, and the cumulative incidence of grades 2–4 aGVHD in this group was 13.33%. A total of 13 patients in the HRD-PBSCT group had recurrent disease at a median of 183 days after transplantation (range: 10–1700 days), reaching cumulative incidences of relapse of 50.28% at 5 years. On multivariate analysis, donor age and patient age >40 years were independent risk factors for inferior disease-free survival or overall survival (P < 0.05). The results of the present study demonstrate rapid and complete neutrophil engraftment, a low incidence of grade 2–4 aGVHD, and promising survival rates in patients after HRD-PBSCT. Thus, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor–primed PBSCs may be a reliable graft source in unmanipulated HRD-HSCT under myeloablative conditioning when no matched sibling donor is available. Conclusions: Our results support the feasibility, effectiveness, and tolerability of PBSCs as a graft source in unmanipulated HRD transplantation under myeloablative conditioning in patients with leukemia.

Abstract
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a heterogeneous disorder with high morbidity and mortality. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is an effective, and sometimes the only, curative postremission therapy for AML patients. Based on genetic risk classification, the published data have suggested that allo-SCT be recommended for high- and most intermediate-risk AML but not for low-risk AML in first complete remission (CR1). Recently, the role of allo-SCT in low-risk AML in CR1 is being established with the development of a risk-directed, minimal residual disease-based strategy. Though human leukocyte antigen-matched sibling transplantation remains the preferred therapeutic option for AML, modern approaches and developments pre-, peri- and post-transplant have facilitated other transplant modalities, especially haploidentical SCT, as promising valid alternative choices. In this paper, we review recent advances in allo-SCT for AML, weigh the benefits of allo-SCT for high-, intermediate-, and even low-risk AML in CR1, discuss the best choice of allo-SCT donor for the treatment of AML, and summarize new approaches for refractory and relapsed AML pre- or post-allo-SCT.

Abstract
For patients requiring allogeneic stem cell transplant, in the absence of a HLA-matched sibling, an extended donor search within the family may yield a suitable donor especially in societies with a high prevalence of consanguinity. We describe outcomes in transplants with non-sibling family donors, and compare outcomes with controls having a sibling donor transplant. Retrospective analysis of all matched related (non-sibling) donor transplants between 1995 and 2015. For comparison, appropriate age, sex and disease-matched patients were chosen from the sibling transplants (MSD) performed during the same time period (± 2 years). Comparison between the fully matched non-sibling donor cohort and age, sex and disease-matched sibling donor transplants showed a significant increase in complications in the family donor group (viral infections, acute GVHD and rejection). Event-free survival and overall survival were significantly lower in the non-sibling donor cohort, and HLA disparity (1-2 antigen) further worsened the adverse impact. Though there was a significantly lower event-free and overall survival at 3 years in the family donor cohort, this did not retain significance in the multivariate analysis. This data on allogeneic transplants using family donors showed higher complication rates and poorer outcomes. However in situations where financial constraints prevent access to matched unrelated donor sources, extended family searches may be fruitful in yielding a donor, and modifications in conditioning regimens and improvement in supportive care may help in improving the outcomes in family donor transplants.

Abstract
Although allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) yields a high rate of curability for acute myeloid leukemia (AML), it is also associated with transplant-related morbidity and mortality (TRM). The risk and severity of TRM increase with the use of an alternative donor graft in the absence of an HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD). With the declining birthrate and aging of the population, the numbers of patients with an MSD are decreasing, and alternative donor transplants, including the post-transplant cyclophosphamide method using haplo-identical donors, are increasing. Autologous (auto)-HSCT, which enables the intensification of chemotherapy, has the advantage of high availability of a transplant graft, and is associated with a lower TRM, but these benefits may be offset by a higher rate of relapse due to the lack of a graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect. Although allo-HSCT remains the first-line treatment for poor and very-poor-risk patients, auto-HSCT is again gaining increased attention. It has also recently been suggested that cord blood grafts may induce a stronger GVL effect than other grafts; as such, the positioning of cord blood transplantation should also be reconsidered for AML patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant is a life-saving treatment, but donor numbers in Turkey do not meet the increasing demand for this procedure. Here, our objectives were (1) to assess the frequency of HLA-matched related donors in the Turkish population and (2) to identify the HLA antigens and haplotypes that are most frequent in Turkey. MATERIALS AND METHODS The HLA genotypes of 841 consecutive recipients and 3071 family members were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS Matched related donors were identified for 368/841 recipients (44%). Extended family donor searches were performed for 111/181 pediatric recipients (61%), with nonsibling matched related donors found for 23 patients (21%). Matched related donors were found for a significantly higher proportion of pediatric patients (52%) than adult patients (41%) (odds ratio of 2.5; 95% confidence interval, 1.9-4.1; P = .02). The percentage of pediatric versus adult patients with 3 or more siblings was 13% versus 46% (odds ratio of 5.6; 95% confidence interval, 3.6-8.5; P = .001). The most frequent HLA class I antigens at each locus were HLA-A*02 (20.2%), HLA-B*35 (19.5%), and HLA-C*07 (19.8%). The most frequent HLA class II antigens at each locus were HLA-DRB1*11 (21.6%) and HLA-DQB1*03 (40.2%). The most common 3-locus haplotypes were HLA-A*24 B*35 DRB1*11 (F:0.020) and HLA-A*01 B*08 DRB1*03 (F:0.015). When adult and pediatric groups were combined, the most common locus haplotypes were found in 43/345 sibling donors (12%) and in 7/23 nonsibling pediatric donors (30%) (odds ratio of 2.7; 95% confidence interval, 1.2-6.4; P = .02). CONCLUSIONS The results indicate that, in Turkey, it can be beneficial to revise donor search algorithms to include an extended family donor search before an unrelated donor search. This type of search can be effective because of the HLA haplotype diversity in Turkey, the frequency of consanguinity, and the country's limited donor pool.

Abstract
Outcomes for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who fail to achieve complete remission remain poor. Hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has been shown to induce long-term survival in AML patients with active disease. HCT is largely performed with HLA-matched unrelated or HLA-matched related donors. Recently, HCT with HLA-haploidentical related donors has been identified as a feasible option when HLA-matched donors are not immediately available. However, there are little data comparing outcomes for AML patients with active disease who receive haploidentical versus traditionally matched HCT. We retrospectively analyzed data from 99 AML patients with active disease undergoing allogeneic HCT at a single institution. Forty-three patients received unrelated donor HCT, 32 patients received matched related donor HCT, and 24 patients received peripheral blood haploidentical HCT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide. We found no significant differences between treatment groups in terms of overall survival (OS), event-free survival, transplantation-related mortality, cumulative incidence of relapse, and cumulative incidence of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We performed univariate regression analysis of variables that modified OS in all patients and found only younger age at transplantation and development of chronic GVHD significantly improved outcome. Although limited by our relatively small sample size, these results indicate that haploidentical HCT in active AML patients have comparable outcomes to HCT with traditionally matched donors. Haploidentical HCT can be considered in this population of high-risk patients when matched donors are unavailable or when wait times for transplantation are unacceptably long.

Abstract
More than 1% of the Japanese population has HLA-homozygous haplotypes. For patients with such haplotypes, HLA-haploidentical family members who have no HLA mismatch in the graft-versus-host direction are readily available donor candidates for hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). In this study, the outcomes of patients with homozygous HLA-A, -B, and -DRB1 antigens who received HCT without T cell depletion from a haploidentical related donor with mismatches in the host-versus-graft direction only (hetero-to-homo, n = 78) or from an HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD) (MSD-homo, n = 153) were compared with those in patients with heterozygous haplotypes who received HCT from an MSD (MSD-hetero, n = 7242). Transplant outcomes in the hetero-to-homo group were similar to those in the MSD-hetero group regarding neutrophil engraftment, grades III to IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD), nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse, and overall survival. On the other hand, the incidences of severe aGVHD and NRM in the MSD-homo group were significantly lower than those in the MSD-hetero group (grades III to IV aGVHD: aHR .50, P = .034; NRM: aHR .48, P = .004). In conclusion, patients with HLA-homozygous haplotypes achieved lower GVHD and NRM rates for MSD transplantation than those with HLA-heterozygous haplotypes. When an MSD or an appropriate alternative donor is not available for patients with HLA-homozygous haplotypes who need immediate transplantation, transplantation from a haploidentical donor without T cell depletion is a viable option, given the comparable transplant outcomes for hetero-to-homo HCT and MSD-hetero HCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the only curative therapy for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients in blast crisis (BC), and haploidentical donors (HID) are immediately available for most patients. We compared the outcomes of HID transplantation with those of matched related donor (MRD) transplantation in a cohort study. PATIENTS AND METHODS A total of 90 consecutive patients who received allogeneic HSCT because of CML-BC were investigated retrospectively. A total of 67 patients underwent transplantation from HID and 23 from MRD. Survival outcomes were compared between the two cohorts. RESULTS Of the 90 patients, 86 patients were engrafted. Three-year overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were comparable between HID and MRD recipients (OS: 60.0% vs 55.3%, respectively, P=.580; RFS: 51.1% vs 47.8%, respectively, P=.512). Three-year incidences of transplant-related mortality (TRM) and relapse did not differ between HID and MRD recipients (relapse: 21.0% vs 26.1%, respectively, P=.626; TRM: 27.9% vs 26.1%, respectively, P=.937). In multivariate analyses, previous chemotherapy history and not achieving CHR before HSCT are independent adverse predictors of OS. CONCLUSIONS For CML-blast crisis or chronic phase from blast crisis patients, HID transplantation achieves comparable survival to MRD transplantation. HID donors can be regarded as regular donors for these special patients at selected centers.

Abstract
PURPOSE Related donor haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (Haplo-HCT) using post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) is increasingly used in patients lacking HLA-matched sibling donors (MSD). We compared outcomes after Haplo-HCT using PT-Cy with MSD-HCT in patients with lymphoma, using the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research registry. MATERIALS AND METHODS We evaluated 987 adult patients undergoing either Haplo-HCT (n = 180) or MSD-HCT (n = 807) following reduced-intensity conditioning regimens. The haploidentical group received graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis with PT-Cy with or without a calcineurin inhibitor and mycophenolate. The MSD group received calcineurin inhibitor-based GVHD prophylaxis. RESULTS Median follow-up of survivors was 3 years. The 28-day neutrophil recovery was similar in the two groups (95% v 97%; P = .31). The 28-day platelet recovery was delayed in the haploidentical group compared with the MSD group (63% v 91%; P = .001). Cumulative incidence of grade II to IV acute GVHD at day 100 was similar between the two groups (27% v 25%; P = .84). Cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD at 1 year was significantly lower after Haplo-HCT (12% v 45%; P < .001), and this benefit was confirmed on multivariate analysis (relative risk, 0.21; 95% CI, 0.14 to 0.31; P < .001). For Haplo-HCT v MSD-HCT, 3-year rates of nonrelapse mortality (15% v 13%; P = .41), relapse/progression (37% v 40%; P = .51), progression-free survival (48% v 48%; P = .96), and overall survival (61% v 62%; P = .82) were similar. Multivariate analysis showed no significant difference between Haplo-HCT and MSD-HCT in terms of nonrelapse mortality (P = .06), progression/relapse (P = .10), progression-free survival (P = .83), and overall survival (P = .34). CONCLUSION Haplo-HCT with PT-Cy provides survival outcomes comparable to MSD-HCT, with a significantly lower risk of chronic GVHD.

Abstract
Medicinal products based on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are expected to have a therapeutic benefit in a variety of conditions and, accordingly, are being tested in many clinical studies. The treatment and prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is one of the world's most widely studied MSC therapy concepts. So far, one MSC medicinal product has been approved for the treatment of GvHD. This article gives an overview of the particular features related to the production of MSC-based medicinal products, the state of non-clinical research, and the clinical development status of MSCs and the associated challenges, especially in the context of GvHD.

Abstract
One of the most important advances in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the use of alternative donors and cell sources, such as haploidentical transplants (haplo-HSCT) from family donors. Several approaches have been developed to overcome the challenging bidirectional alloreactivity. We discuss these approaches, including ex vivo T-cell-depleted grafts with megadose of CD34(+) cells, not requiring immunosuppression after allogeneic transplantation for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, and other strategies using unmanipulated T-cell-replete grafts with intensive immunosuppression or post-transplantation cyclophosphamide to minimize the GVHD. We also address the role of other strategies developed in the context of the haplo-HSCT platforms, such as ex vivo selective depletion of alloreactive donor T-cell subpopulations, infusion of antigen-specific T-cells against several pathogens, and infusion of regulatory T-cells, among other experimental approaches. Finally, some considerations about the selection of the most suitable donor, when more than one family member is available, are also addressed.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Increasing numbers of patients are receiving haplo-identical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) for treatment of acute leukemia with reduced intensity (RIC) or myeloablative (MAC) conditioning regimens. The impact of conditioning intensity in haplo-SCT is unknown. METHODS We performed a retrospective registry-based study comparing outcomes after T-replete haplo-SCT for patients with acute myeloid (AML) or lymphoid leukemia (ALL) after RIC (n = 271) and MAC (n = 425). Regimens were classified as MAC or RIC based on published criteria. RESULTS A combination of post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) with one calcineurin inhibitor and mycophenolate mofetil (PT-Cy-based regimen) for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was used in 66 (25%) patients in RIC and 125 (32%) in MAC groups. Patients of RIC group were older and had been transplanted more recently and more frequently for AML with active disease at transplant. Percentage of engraftment (90 vs. 92%; p = 0.58) and day 100 grade II to IV acute GVHD (24 vs. 29%, p = 0.23) were not different between RIC and MAC groups. Multivariable analyses, run separately in AML and ALL, showed a trend toward higher relapse incidence with RIC in comparison to MAC in AML (hazard ratio (HR) 1.34, p = 0.09), and no difference in both AML and ALL in terms of non-relapse mortality (NRM) chronic GVHD and leukemia-free survival. There was no impact of conditioning regimen intensity in overall survival (OS) in AML (HR = 0.97, p = 0.79) but a trend for worse OS with RIC in ALL (HR = 1.44, p = 0.10). The main factor impacting outcomes was disease status at transplantation (HR ≥ 1.4, p ≤ 0.01). GVHD prophylaxis with PT-Cy-based regimen was independently associated with reduced NRM (HR 0.63, p = 0.02) without impact on relapse incidence (HR 0.99, p = 0.94). CONCLUSIONS These data suggest that T-replete haplo-SCT with both RIC and MAC, in particular associated with PT-Cy, are valid options in first line treatment of high risk AML or ALL.

Abstract
The aim of the study is to determine whether HLA-haploidentical-related donor (HRD) transplant can achieve equivalent outcomes and have stronger GVL compared to HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD) and HLA-matched unrelated donor (MUD) transplants. A total of 355 consecutive patients with acute leukemia undergoing allogeneic transplant at our single institute between March 2008 and March 2014 were enrolled in this retrospective investigation. Of the 355 patients, 96 cases received HRD, 153 MSD, and 106 MUD transplants. HRD transplant was associated with higher incidences of grade II to IV aGVHD (40.6%) compared with MSD (23.5%, P = 0.002) and MUD transplants (34.0%, P = 0.049), whereas incidences of grade III to IV aGVHD (11.4%, 7.8%, 10.5%, respectively; P = 0.590) and cGVHD (29.5%, 24.0%, 29.5%, respectively; P = 0.538) did not differ among 3 groups. Five-year relapse rates were 19.2%, 26.8%, and 23.0% in 3 groups, respectively (P = 0.419). However, of 206 high-risk patients, the relapse rate in HRD transplant was lower than in MSD transplant (23.8% vs 41.9%, P = 0.026). Multivariate analysis showed that HRD had beneficial impact on relapse (for MSD: P = 0.006). Five-year transplant-related mortality was lower in MSD transplant compared with those in HRD (17.3% vs 26.4%, P = 0.041) and MUD transplants (17.3% vs 24.1%, P = 0.037). Five-year overall survival were 60.4%, 64.6%, and 61.0%, respectively, in HRD, MSD, and MUD groups (P = 0.371); 5-year disease-free survival were 59.6%, 58.8%, and 54.9%, respectively (P = 0.423). Our results suggest that HRD transplant results in outcomes equivalent to MSD and MUD transplants. HRD might carry a superior GVL effect compared to MSD for high-risk patients.

Abstract
Allogenic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HSCT) is typically the preferred curative therapy for adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia, but its use has been reduced as a consequence of limited donor availability in the form of either matched-related donors (MRD) or matched-unrelated donors (MUD). Alternative options such as unrelated umbilical cord blood (UCB) transplantation and haploidentical HSCT have been increasingly studied in the past few decades to overcome these obstacles. A human leukocyte antigen- (HLA-) haploidentical donor is a recipient's relative who shares an exact haplotype with the recipient but is mismatched for HLA genes on the unshared haplotype. These dissimilarities pose several challenges to the outcomes of the patient receiving such a type of HSCT, including higher rates of bidirectional alloreactivity and graft failure. In the past 5 years, however, several nonrandomized studies have shown promising results in terms of graft success and decreased rates of alloreactivity, in part due to newer grafting techniques and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. We present here a summary and review of the latest results of these studies as well as a brief discussion on the advantages and challenges of haploidentical HSCT.

Abstract
Despite the advent of targeted therapies and novel agents, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation remains the only curative modality in the management of hematologic disorders. The necessity to find an HLA-matched related donor is a major obstacle that compromises the widespread application and development of this field. Matched unrelated donors and umbilical cord blood have emerged as alternative sources of donor stem cells; however, the cost of maintaining donor registries and cord blood banks is very high and even impractical in developing countries. Almost every patient has an HLA haploidentical relative in the family, meaning that haploidentical donors are potential sources of stem cells, especially in situations where cord blood or matched unrelated donors are not easily available. Due to the high rates of graft failure and graft-versus-host disease, haploidentical transplant was not considered a feasible option up until the late 20th century, when strategies such as “megadose stem cell infusions” and posttransplantation immunosuppression with cyclophosphamide showed the ability to overcome the HLA disparity barrier and significantly improve the rates of engraftment and reduce the incidence and severity of graft-versus-host disease. Newer technologies of graft manipulation have also yielded the same effects in addition to preserving the antileukemic cells in the donor graft.

Abstract
The clinical significance and prognostic impact of IRFR in pediatric recipients of haploidentical SCT are not clearly understood. Therefore, we attempted to determine how IRFR affects clinical outcomes in children. Clinical data from 100 consecutive pediatric patients (60 boys and 40 girls; median age, 12 yr [range, 2-18 yr] after haploidentical SCT between January 2010 and December 2012 were collected retrospectively. IRFR was described as unexplained fever (>38 °C) within 24 h after the infusion of haploidentical PBSCs. Thirty-eight (38.0%) cases met the criteria for IRFR. ES was found in 24 (63.2%) of the 38 children with IRFR, with the median time of developing ES of +9 (7-16) days, while only 15 (25.4%) of the 59 children without IRFR were found with ES (p < 0.001). Similarly, the cumulative incidence rates of grade II-IV aGVHD were 50.0% in the IRFR group and 29.3% (p = 0.012) in the non-febrile group. Multivariate analysis identified IRFR as the risk factor for ES and aGVHD. In the haploidentical setting, IRFR is associated with the development of ES and aGVHD. We attempted to determine how IRFR affects clinical outcomes in children after haploidentical SCT. Thirty-eight children comprised the IRFR group, and 59 were in the control (non-IRFR) group. High incidence of ES was observed in children with the occurrence of IRFR. Similarly, the incidence of stage I-IV and II-IV aGVHD was significantly higher in the febrile group. Multivariate analysis showed IRFR to be the risk factor for ES and aGVHD.

Abstract
PURPOSE Recent advances in nonmyeloablative (NMA), related HLA-haploidentical blood or marrow transplantation (haplo-BMT) have expanded the donor pool. This study evaluated the effect of age on NMA haplo-BMT outcomes in patients age 50 to 75 years. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed of 271 consecutive patients with hematologic malignancies, age 50 to 75 years, who received NMA, T-cell-replete haplo-BMT with high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide. RESULTS The median age was 61 years, with 115 patients (42%) age 50 to 59, 129 (48%) age 60 to 69, and 27 (10%) age 70 to 75 years. Overall, 84% of patients had intermediate- or high-/very high-risk disease. The 6-month probabilities of grade 3 or 4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) were 3% and 8%, respectively. Patients in their 50s, 60s, and 70s had 6-month NRM probabilities of 8%, 9%, and 7%, respectively (P=.20). With a median follow-up of 4 years, corresponding 3-year progression-free survival probabilities were 39%, 35%, and 33% (P=.65), and corresponding 3-year overall survival probabilities were 48%, 45%, and 44% (P=.66). Three-year progression-free survival probabilities were 40% in acute myeloid leukemia (n=65), 39% in aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (n=83), and 37% in indolent or mantle-cell lymphoma (n=65). Older patient age was associated with a significantly higher risk of grade 2 to 4 acute GVHD but not grade 3 to 4 acute or chronic GVHD. No statistically significant associations were found between older age (relative to age 50 to 59 years or as a continuous variable) and NRM, relapse, or survival. CONCLUSION NMA haplo-BMT with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide has encouraging safety and survival outcomes in patients age 50 to 75 years. In patients otherwise fit for BMT, the results support consideration of this approach despite advanced age.
