Reduced Intensity

Reduced intensity conditioning for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is often proposed for patients with comorbidities. To enhance engraftment and limit graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), antithymoglobulin (ATG) is usually used. However, the dose needed remains unclear unlike myeloablative conditioning. In order to clarify this point, we conducted a retrospective study on patients who received a reduced intensity conditioning allo-HSCT based on a 2-day fludarabine and busulfan treatment with either 1 or 2 days of ATG treatment. One hundred and eight patients received 2.5 mg/kg (ATG2.5) and another 60 patients 5 mg/kg (ATG5). The median follow-up was 36 months. The median overall survival was 39 months and the median disease-free survival 45 months. In multivariate analysis, overall nonrelapse mortality (NRM) was independently influenced by the acute GVHD grade III-IV (p < 0.001) and ATG dose (30 vs. 21% for ATG5; p = 0.008). Despite heterogeneity of populations, using proportional-hazard assumptions, we have been able to observe in multivariate analysis a lower NRM in the ATG5 group. This leads to a statistically higher overall survival for the ATG5 group. In conclusion, 2 days of ATG decrease NRM independently without increasing the risk of relapse or infectious disease.
