Abstract
Objective
To document the results of outpatient hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from the peripheral blood (PB) of sibling donors without anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) in the conditioning regimen.
Material and methods
Patients from a low-income population with severe AA who received a PB, unmanipulated sibling HLA-identical HSCT between 2000 and 2020 at a single institution were studied. Survival was the primary outcome.
Results
Forty-one transplants were performed. Time between diagnosis and transplant was five months (1–104). Median age was 37 (range, 4–61) years; 25 (61 %) recipients were males and 32 (78 %) had treatment failure, 9 (22 %) have not received treatment. ATG was administered in 5 (12.2 %) cases; the graft source was PB in 38 (92.7 %) transplants. Twenty-six (63.4 %) transplants were carried out in the outpatient setting. Infections developed in 14 (34.1 %) patients. Primary graft failure (GF) occurred in 3 (7.3 %) patients. The 15-year OS was 81 %, EFS was 77.4 %. Patients with high pre-HSCT transfusion burden had lower OS (p = 0.035) and EFS (p = 0.026). Previous treatment failure and age were not associated with lower OS (p = 0.115, p = 0.069) or EFS (p = 0.088, p = 0.5, respectively).
Conclusions
HLA-identical T-cell replete outpatient HSCT from the PB of sibling donors for AA patients using ATG-free conditioning offers excellent long-term survival.
