Résumé
We report the outcome of 51 patients receiving an unmanipulated haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PT-Cy) and anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), from peripheral blood stem cells or bone marrow, after a TBF (thiotepa, busulfan, fludarabine) conditioning regimen. Their median age was 55 years (range, 16-72). Hematological diagnosis comprised acute leukemias (n=31), lymphoid neoplasm (n=12), myeloproliferative neoplasm (n=5) and myelodysplastic syndromes (n=3). Thirty-seven patients (73%) were in complete remission. GVHD prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine and mycophenolate for all patients, associated with ATG in 39 cases (76.5%). Median time to neutrophil engraftment was 17 days (range, 12-34). The cumulative incidence (CI) of grade II-IV and grade III-IV acute GVHD were 27.5% and 14%, respectively. In patients receiving peripheral blood stem cells graft and ATG prophylaxis, grade II-IV aGVHD occurred in 16% cases. The use of ATG and a lower thiotepa dose (5 vs. 10 mg/kg) were associated with a reduced CI of grade II-IV acute GVHD (p=0.03 and p=0.005). The 2-year CI of chronic GVHD was 29% and was significantly reduced to 13% with lower thiotepa dose (p=0.002). After a median follow-up of 25 months (12-62), the CI of non-relapse mortality, relapse, overall survival, disease-free survival and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival were 20%, 22.5%, 67%, 58% and 51%, respectively. Pre-transplant disease status (complete remission vs. others) was the main factor associated with overall survival, disease-free survival and GVHD-free, relapse-free survival. In conclusion, the TBF conditioning regimen is an appealing platform in the haplo setting with PT-Cy, in terms of engraftment rate, toxicity and disease control. We found no benefit of a thiotepa dose at 10 mg/kg compared to 5 mg/kg. ATG reduced the risk of acute GVHD without comprising the outcomes.
