The Comparison of Transplantation From Family-mismatched/Haploidentical Donors With Matched Unrelated Donors in Adult Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukemia
For patients lacking an HLA-identical sibling, 8/8-matched unrelated donors are currently
the "gold standard" for a donor, since outcomes after HLA-identical sibling have been
compared to 8/8-matched unrelated donors. Currently, there are three alternative graft
sources, including mismatched unrelated donors, familial mismatch/haploidentical donors, and
umbilical cord bloods. Compared with other sources, transplants from familial
mismatch/haploidentical donors (FMT) have the benefit of an immediate availability of a
donor, particularly for those patients who urgently need transplantation. Initial reports
had characterized FMT to a poor engraftment and a high incidence of graft-versus-host
disease. However, outcomes of FMT have significantly improved over the past decade in the
optimization of conditioning regimen and graft selection to allow a stable engraftment
across major HLA barriers, with promising leukemia-free survival in adults with acute
leukemia. Despite the encouraging results and potential benefit of FMT, there have been few
studies comparing clinical outcomes of FMT with other donor types, particularly in acute
myeloid leukemia (AML) as a single disease. Since August 2008, we have been continuously
performing FMT using unmanipulated donor cells and a less aggressive conditioning regimen in
high-risk AML lacking an HLA-identical sibling, 8/8 or 7/8-matched unrelated donors. We
reported the feasibility of FMT using our novel reduced-intensity regimen without ex vivo
T-cell depletion, showing early results similar to outcomes of transplant from 8/8-matched
unrelated donors (MUT). This study will test the hypothesis that overall survival at 3 years
after FMT is similar to overall survival after MUT.
