Combination of HLA-Matched Sibling Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation With Unrelated Cord Blood Unit in Patients Aged 35 to 50 Years With Severe Aplastic Anemia : Preliminary Summary of a Single-Arm Trial

Copyright © 2019 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved..

This study reports a single-arm trial in the interim phase in 4 patients with median age of 40.5 years who have undergone combined HLA-matched sibling donor (MSD) stem cell graft and an unrelated cord blood (UCB) unit for the treatment of severe aplastic anemia (SAA). The median time was 10 days for neutrophil engraftment (9-18 days) and 17 days for platelets (12-24 days). Median follow-up of 22 months (ranging from 16 to 29 months) showed survival of the 4 patients with complete hematological response. Acute graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) (grade II) occurred only in 1 patient, yet chronic GVHD was free. One patient showed a pattern of transient MSD graft followed by dominant UCB chimerism, and another 1 achieved mixed chimerism in the first 6 months after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) then evolved to a stable MSD graft. The other 2 patients sustained a full MSD graft during the post-HSCT period. Nevertheless, none of the patients developed primary and secondary graft failure up to the final follow-up. Although this is a small cohort, the dual transplantation combining HLA-matched sibling allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with unrelated cord blood unit may deserve further exploration for treatment of SAA patients aged 35 to 50 years old.
