Halfway there: the past, present and future of haploidentical transplantation

Abstract: In recent years, the use of haploidentical donors for hematopoietic cell transplantation has expanded rapidly. Approximately 50% of patients requiring hematopoietic cell transplant lack a traditional donor. The use of HLA haploidentical-related donors is attractive due to nearly universal availability of this graft source. We summarize the current and future need for haploidentical donors and detail the rise of post-transplant cyclophosphamide as the dominant haploidentical approach. Further, we examine ongoin… Show more

“…In the past years haploidentical transplantations with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) as graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis have shown promising results in the treatment of many hematologic diseases, including some cases of graft failure [5,6]. Furthermore, most patients have a haploidentical donor that can be promptly identified and harvested.…”

“…Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is the only known potentially curative therapy. While a HLA‐matched sibling donor remains the preferred option for transplantation, there is a substantial lack of this donor population for sAML patients with rates estimated to be as high as 70% …”

“…[8][9][10] More recently, a revived interest in the use of haplo-identical (haplo) donors has become apparent because of improved transplantation techniques and pharmacological manipulation of host-versus-graft and graftversus-host reactions. 11 Although each type of donor and/or stem cell source has its own advantages and drawbacks, comparative studies evaluating survival estimates in well-defined groups of patients are scarce. Here, we set out to compare outcome in patients with poor-risk AML in CR1 receiving alloHSCT between 2000 and 2014, using either MRD, 10/10 or 9/10 MUDs, haplo, or UCB grafts.…”
