Abstract
Haploidentical (Haplo) HCT using post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) has improved donor availability. However, a matched sibling donor (MSD) is still considered the optimal donor. Using the CIBMTR database, we compared outcomes after MSD HCT vs. PT-Cy-based Haplo-HCT in AML patients in CR1. Data from 1,205 adult CR1 AML patients (PT-Cy-based Haplo-HCT: 336, MSD with calcineurin inhibitor-based GVHD prophylaxis: 869) (2008-2015) were analyzed. The Haplo group included more reduced-intensity conditioning (65% vs. 30%) and bone marrow grafts (62% vs. 7%), consistent with current practice (Table 1). In univariate analysis, the Haplo group had less chronic GVHD (26 [21-31]% vs. 56 [53-60]% at 3 years, p Our results suggest similar outcomes after current standard practices of PT-Cy-based Haplo-HCT using mostly bone marrow vs. MSD HCT using mostly peripheral blood, except for less cGVHD after Haplo-HCT. Although the groups were balanced for many important variables, the tight relationship of donor type with graft source and conditioning intensity may have influenced our findings.
