ABSTRACT
This study included data from 81 consecutively enrolled patients with hematological diseases who had been treated with unrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) between September 2014 and April 2019. All patients received intense conditioning regimens with combined fludarabine and high-dose cyclophosphamide (FC) before undergoing UCBT. Sixty-seven patients received a single UCBT, and 14 patients received a double UCBT. Fifty patients were pretreated with the fludarabine, busulfan, and cyclophosphamide (FBC) protocol, while 31 patients were treated with FC before transplantation. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was prevented with cyclosporine A and mycophenolate mofetil administration. According to low-resolution, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) donor-recipient matching at six sites, 53 patients had 5-6 matches, while 28 patients had 4 matches. Seventy-eight patients (96.3%) achieved complete engraftment in this study. Thirty-six patients developed acute GVHD (aGVHD). The cumulative incidence of grade I-II aGVHD at day 100 posthematopoietic stem cell transplantation was 29.6%, and the cumulative incidence of grade III-IV aGVHD was 14.8%. At the end of the follow-up, 12 patients died due to treatment-related complications, and 4 died of disease relapse after transplantation. The transplant-related deaths were due to transplant-related infection (8 of 81), GVHD (2 of 81), and organ toxicity (2 of 81). The probability of overall survival (OS) was 80.2%. A higher dose of cyclophosphamide combined with fludarabine conditioning in UCBT was an effective curative method for treatment of hematologic disorders and could enhance the engraftment of umbilical cord blood stem cells, promote post-transplant immune reconstitution, and improve OS.
