Abstract
To expand the donor pool, allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT) using HLA 2-3 antigen-mismatched (haploidentical) related donors has been studied. To date, there are a few reports describing nonmyeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST) from HLA-haploidentical donors. We recently showed that a nonmyeloablative regimen consisting of fludarabine, busulfan, and ATG was sufficiently immunosuppressive to achieve donor type engraftment in transplantation from HLA-haploidentical donors who had 1 antigen-mismatch in the GVH direction and 2-3 antigen-mismatches in the HVG direction (Leukemia, 2003).
