Abstract 839FN2 Many patients who require allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) lack a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched donor. Recently, we developed a new strategy named GIAC protocol for HLA-mismatched/haploidentical transplantation from family donors that combines granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) primed bone marrow (G-BM) and peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) without in vitro T-cell depletion (TCD). For the past nine years, promising results for HLA-mismatched allo-HSCT without in vitro TCD have been achieved at our institute using this protocol. From May 2002 to December 2010, 820 patients, including 206 in high-risk group, underwent transplantation from haploidentical family donors. Eight-hundred and eleven patients (99%) achieved sustained, full donor chimerism. The incidence of grade 2–4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was 42.9%, and that of grades 3 and 4 was 14.0% which was not associated with the extent of HLA disparity.Figure 1Cumulative incidence of acute GVHD grade 2–4 according to HLA disparity.Figure 1.

AbstractSince the introduction of leukemia-type induction therapies for T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma (T-LBL), improvements in the long-term outcomes of T-LBL have been reported. However, indications for and the appropriate timing of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) have not yet been established. Therefore, we performed a multicenter retrospective cohort study of patients with T-LBL treated using leukemia-type initial therapies to compare the outcomes after HSCT at different disease stages. We enrolled 21 patients with T-LBL from a total of 11 centers, and all patients received hyper-CVAD as a leukemia-type initial regimen. HSCT was performed during the CR1/PR1 (standard disease) stage in 11 patients, while it was completed at a later or non-remission (advanced disease) stage in 10 patients. Following HSCT, the overall survival rate was significantly greater in standard disease than in advanced-disease patients (79.5% vs. 30.0% at 5 years; hazard ratio (HR) 5.97; p = 0.03), with trend to the lower incidence of relapse in the former group (27.3% vs. 60.0% at 5 years; HR 2.29; p = 0.19). A prognostic difference was not detected between cases treated with allogeneic and autologous HSCTs. Our study suggests that frontline HSCT may be a feasible treatment option for T-LBL, even in the era of leukemia-type initial therapy.

Abstract Sporadic cases of successful non-T-cell-depleted (TCD) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT) from HLA-haploidentical family members mismatched for noninherited maternal antigens (NIMAs) have been reported over the last few years. This kind of SCT is based on the hypothesis that long-term feto-maternal microchimerism is associated with acquired immunologic hyporesponsiveness to NIMA or inherited paternal antigens (IPAs). To confirm the effectiveness and safety of NIMA-mismatched SCT in a large cohort, we retrospectively surveyed the outcomes of 76 children (44 boys, 32 girls; median age 7 years, range, 0–18) with either advanced non-malignant disorders (n=10), hematological malignancies (n=62) or solid tumors (n=4) who underwent T-cell-replete HLA-2-loci- or HLA-3-loci incompatible SCT from NIMA-mismatched donors (mother, n=53; NIMA-mismatched sibling, n=12) or other family donors (father/NIPA-mismatched sibling) (n=11) between 01/2000 and 12/2004. Disease status of malignant disease at SCT was as follows: CR1/CR2/CP in 19 and chemorefractory in 47. Types of grafts were bone marrow in 40 and peripheral blood stem cells in 35. Feto-maternal michrochimerism was detected in 32 out of 35 mothers tested and 8 out of 8 NIMA-mismatched sibling donors. GVHD prophylaxis consisted of tacrolimus-based regimen in 73. All but two patients achieved sustained neutrophil engraftment at median of 16.5 days (range, 10–29). Grade II to IV acute GVHD occurred in 36 of 73 evaluable patients (49%) between days 7 and 36 (median, 17). In non-malignant disorders, no severe (grade III/IV) acute GVHD was observed, while in malignant disorders, severe acute GVHD occurred in 21 (32%) of 65 evaluable patients. Twenty-two out of 41 evaluable patients (54%) who survived more than 6 months had extensive chronic GVHD. As of 04/2005, in non-malignant disorders, all 9 patients who obtained engraftment were alive. In malignant disorders, twenty-nine out of 66 patients (44%) were alive and 25 of them were disease-free with median follow-up of 25 (range, 4 to 57) months. Death were due to disease progression (n=22), infection (n=6), GVHD (n=4) and others (n=4). These results suggest that pediatric patients who lack immediate access to a conventional stem cell source can obtain successful results with non-TCD transplants from an HLA-haploidentical NIMA-mismatched donor.
