ABSTRACT
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation is a curative treatment for many hematologic malignancies for which umbilical cord blood (UCB) represents an alternative source of HSCs. To overcome the low cellularity of one UCB unit, double UCB transplantation (dUCBT) has been developed in adults. We have analyzed the outcome of 136 patients who underwent dUCBT reported to the SFGM-TC registry between 2005 and 2007. Forty-six patients received myeloablative regimens, and 90 patients received reduced-intensity conditioning regimens. There were 84 cases of leukemia, 17 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, 11 cases of myeloma, and 24 other hematologic malignancies. At transplantation, 40 (29%) patients were in complete remission. At day 60 after transplantation, the cumulative incidence of neutrophil recovery was 91%. We observed one UCB unit domination in 88% of cases. The cumulative incidence of day 100 acute graft-versus-host disease, chronic graft-versus-host disease, transplant-related mortality, and relapse at 2 years were 36%, 23%, 27%, and 28% respectively. After a median follow-up of 49.5 months, the 3-year probabilities of overall and progression-free survival were 41% and 35%, respectively, with a significant overall survival advantage when male cord engrafted male recipients. We obtained a long-term plateau among patients in complete remission, which makes dUCBT a promising treatment strategy for these patients.
