The optimal conditioning for patients with higher risk MDS receiving potentially curative allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant(allo-HCT) remains to be defined. This is particularly the case for patients with excess of blasts at time of allo-HCT. Sequential (Seq) conditioning, whereby chemotherapy is followed rapidly by transplant conditioning, offers an opportunity to decrease disease burden, potentially improving outcomes allo-HCT outcomes. Herein we present the only analysis comparing Seq to myeloablative (MAC) and reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) specifically focussed on MDS patients with excess of blasts at allo-HCT. 303 patients were identified in the EBMT registry, receiving RIC (n = 158), Seq (n = 105), and MAC (n = 40). Median follow-up was 67.2 months and median age at allo-HCT was 59.5 years (IQR 53.5-65.6). For the entire cohort, 3 y overall survival (OS) was 50% (95% CI 45-56%) and relapse free survival (RFS) 45% (95% CI 40-51%). No significant differences in OS (log-rank p = 0.13) and RFS (log-rank p = 0.18) were observed between conditioning protocols. On multivariable analysis, lower performance status, worse IPSS-R cytogenetics, sibling donor (compared to 8/8 MUD) and ≥20% blasts at allo-HCT were associated with worse outcomes. In conclusion, the Seq protocol did little to influence the outcome in this high-risk group of patients, with outcomes mostly determined by baseline disease risk and patient characteristics such as performance status.

We compared transplantation (HSCT) outcomes in AML patients undergoing HSCT with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) in first complete remission from 1065 young (<35 years) haploidentical (Haplo) donors (yHaplo) vs. 147 old (≥35 years) mismatched unrelated donors (oMMUD) (first comparison) and from 271 young (<35 years) MMUD (yMMUD) vs. 1315 old (≥35 years) Haplo donors (oHaplo) (second comparison). Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) grades II-IV were significantly lower in the yHaplo vs. oMMUD group (HR = 0.62, p = 0.007). There were no significant differences in chronic GVHD, non-relapse mortality (NRM), relapse incidence, leukemia-free survival, overall survival, and GVHD-free and relapse-free survival. As for the second comparison, more patients in the oHaplo group had de novo AML, 86.6% vs. 81.9% in the yMMUD group (p = 0.044), while myeloablative conditioning was used more frequently in the yMMUD group, 53.3% vs. 46.8% in the oHaplo group (p = 0.049). aGVHD grades II-IV and NRM were significantly lower in the yMMUD vs. oHaplo group (HR = 0.69, p = 0.013 and HR = 0.60, p = 0.022). All other transplant outcomes did not differ. In conclusion, HSCT from young alternative donors (<35 years) results in a lower incidence of grades II-IV aGVHD. In addition, NRM is lower in HSCT from yMMUD compared to HSCT from oHaplo.

There is a paucity of information to guide the selection of the most suitable donor in haploidentical (Haplo) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). For this reason, from the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, we conducted a retrospective analysis to evaluate the impact of Haplo donor characteristics on outcomes in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who received graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). The primary end point was graft-versus-host disease (GVHD)-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS). Overall, 2200 patients were included. The median age of donors was 37 years (range, 8-71); 820 (37%) were females, including 458 (21%) who were used for male recipients. In addition, 1631 donors (74%) donated peripheral blood (PB). Multivariable analysis identified certain donor-related risk factors with a detrimental impact on transplant outcomes. The use of PB, older donors' ages (>37 years), and female donors to male recipients negatively affected GRFS. Donor's age and female donor-to-male recipient combination also affected nonrelapse mortality, leukemia-free survival, and overall survival. In conclusion, donor-related variables significantly influence outcomes in patients with AML after Haplo-HSCT with PTCy. When possible, younger donors and male donors for male recipients should be prioritized. The use of bone marrow can additionally prevent GVHD.

Donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI) is a treatment option to prevent or treat relapse after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). We here report data for 173 patients who received one or multiple DLIs after haploidentical-HCT with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY) at 47 EBMT centers from 2009 to 2018. Indication for DLI was: prophylactic for 59 (34.3%), preemptive for 20(11.6%), and therapeutic for 93(54.1%). For the prophylactic group, the median number of DLIs was 1 (IQR:1-2.5) with a median first dose of 0.1 × 106 CD3+ T cell/kg, for the preemptive 2 (IQR:1-3) with 0.5 × 106 CD3+ T cell/kg, for the therapeutic 1 (IQR:1-3) with 1 × 106CD3+ Tcell/kg, respectively. OS after first DLI was 61% (46-75%) for prophylactic, 40% (19-61%) for preemptive, and 22% (13-31%) for therapeutic. CI of II-IV aGVHD and cGVHD was 17% (7-27%) and 53% (40-67%) for the prophylactic, 20% (2-38%) and 21% (3-39%) for the preemptive, 17% (9-24%) and 24% (15-33%) for the therapeutic group, respectively. Our data show great variability in the indications and modalities of DLI across responding EBMT centers. Survival rates remain relatively low in patients with active disease. While the cumulative incidence of aGVHD appears acceptable, we showed a high incidence of cGVHD in the prophylactic group, compared with preemptive and therapeutic DLI. These data should be investigated further in prospective clinical trials.
