Abstract

ObjectiveTo analyze the impact of donor- and recipient-related factors on Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and overall survival of transplantation from matched sibling donors. Methodwe retrospectively analyzed the clinical features of 68 consecutive hematological patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) from matched sibling from 2011 and 2017. ResultsThe incidence of Ⅱ- Ⅳacute GVHD (aGVHD) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD) after transplantation was 13.6 % and 19.7 %, respectively. We also noted the donor and recipient characteristics had no impact on Ⅱ- Ⅳ aGVHD incidence.We found sex mismatch (F-M) did not increase the risk of cGVHD in the model if a female donor was younger than 30 years (P = 1.000), but cGVHD increased if the female donor was ≥30 years (P = 0.002). Recipients≥40 years undergoing HCT from donors ≥30 years were at higher risk for cGVHD (P = 0.021). Development of Ⅱ- Ⅳ aGVHD and cGVHD had no effect on overall survival (P = 0.159, 0.081). Non-remission status at allo-HCT was linked to lower overall survival (P = 0.001). ConclusionThe incidence of cGVHD was higher when male recipients received hematopoietic progenitor cells from female ≥30 years donors, and when older than 40 years recipients received hematopoietic progenitor cells from ≥30 years donors. Patients in non-remission status at allo-HCT was inclined to have lower overall survival.
