RESUMEN
Post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCY) has been introduced as graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis in mismatched and matched unrelated hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT). However, data comparing outcomes of PTCY or ATG in patients undergoing a 1 antigen mismatched HCT for lymphoproliferative disease are limited. We compared PTCY versus ATG in adult patients with lymphoproliferative disease undergoing a first 9/10 MMUD HCT with a reduced intensity conditioning regimen from 2010 to 2021. Patients receiving PTCY were matched to patients receiving ATG according to: age, disease status at transplant, female to male matching, stem cell source and CMV serology. Grade II-IV acute GvHD at 100 day was 26% and 41% for the ATG and PTCY group, respectively (p = 0.08). Grade III-IV acute GvHD was not significantly different between the two groups. No differences were observed in relapse incidence, non-relapse mortality, progression-free survival, overall survival and GvHD-relapse-free survival at 1 year. The cumulative incidence of 1-year extensive chronic GvHD was 18% in the ATG and 5% in the PTCY group, respectively (p = 0.06). In patients with lymphoproliferative diseases undergoing 9/10 MMUD HCT, PTCY might be a safe option providing similar results to ATG prophylaxis. Due to the limited number of patients, prospective randomized trials are needed.

Autologous(auto-) and allogeneic(allo-) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are key treatments for relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), although their roles are challenged by CAR-T-cells and other immunotherapies. We examined the transplantation trends and outcomes for DLBCL patients undergoing auto-/allo-HSCT between 1990 and 2021 reported to EBMT. Over this period, 41,148 patients underwent auto-HSCT, peaking at 1911 cases in 2016, while allo-HSCT saw a maximum of 294 cases in 2018. The recent decline in transplants corresponds to increased CAR-T treatments (1117 cases in 2021). Median age for auto-HSCT rose from 42 (1990-1994) to 58 years (2015-2021), with peripheral blood becoming the primary stem cell source post-1994. Allo-HSCT median age increased from 36 (1990-1994) to 54 (2015-2021) years, with mobilized blood as the primary source post-1998 and reduced intensity conditioning post-2000. Unrelated and mismatched allo-HSCT accounted for 50% and 19% of allo-HSCT in 2015-2021. Three-year overall survival (OS) after auto-HSCT improved from 56% (1990-1994) to 70% (2015-2021), p < 0.001, with a decrease in relapse incidence (RI) from 49% to 38%, while non-relapse mortality (NRM) remained unchanged (4%). After allo-HSCT, 3-year-OS increased from 33% (1990-1999) to 46% (2015-2021) (p < 0.001); 3-year RI remained at 39% and 1-year-NRM decreased to 19% (p < 0.001). Our data reflect advancements over 32 years and >40,000 transplants, providing insights for evaluating emerging DLBCL therapies.
