Post-transplant cyclophosphamide at 80 mg/kg with low dose post-engraftment anti-thymocyte globulin in haploidentical transplantation with myeloablative conditioning.
Bone Marrow Transplantation 2024 April 11
While post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is commonly used as graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis in haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT), its dose remains a matter of debate due to side effect concerns. Standard dose of 100 mg/kg associated with tacrolimus and post-engraftment anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) was used as the reference GvHD prophylaxis in our center and had demonstrated encouraging results. Though PTCy 80 mg/kg was shown to be feasible in patients in reduced-intensity conditioning, whether it exerts equivalent GvHD prophylactic efficacy in myeloablative conditioning (MAC) setting has not been confirmed. Here, we retrospectively analyzed the efficacy and safety of PTCy 80 mg/kg combined with tacrolimus and post-engraftment ATG as GvHD prophylaxis in patients aged more than 55 years or with cardiac antecedents or HCT-CI score >2 undergoing haplo-HSCT with MAC. The cumulative incidence of grade III-IV aGvHD at day 100 and moderate-to-severe cGvHD at 1 year was 4.8% ± 3.4% and 19.9% ± 7.0%, respectively. When compared with patients receiving the reference regimen, patients from the PTCy 80 mg/kg group had similar incidence of GvHDs and survival as their younger counterparts. Thus, PTCy 80 mg/kg seems to be feasible for patients treated with MAC conditioning regimens in haplo-HSCT, inviting further investigation notably in frail patients.
