ABSTRACT
Background:
Recipients of a related haploidentical stem cell transplant (haplo-SCT) can have preformed antibodies to HLA donor's antigens.Objective:
The aim of the study was to evaluate the engraftment rate and major clinical associations of anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies (DSA) at two mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) thresholds in recipients of an outpatient haplo-SCT.Methods:
Seventy haplo-HCT recipients were analyzed. A virtual crossmatch was performed using the donor HLA typing and the recipient's anti-HLA DSA test results. Data for anti-HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DR were analyzed. Recipients with DSA ≥ 500 MFI were considered positive, and those with < 500 were considered negative; the same was adopted for MFI ≥ 1000.Results:
Post-transplant infection was higher in recipients with DSA ≥ 500 MFI (84.6%, p = 0.041). First-year mortality was higher in DSA-positive patients ≥ 500 MFI, p = 0.004, and DSA ≥ 1000 MFI, p = 0.022, than in DSA-negative recipients. Graft failure in the first 100 days was not associated with DSA ≥ 500 or ≥ 1000 MFI. There was no difference in acute (a-GVHD) or chronic (c-GVHD) graft versus host disease between DSA-positive and negative patients.Conclusions:
There was no association of anti-HLA DSA at MFI ≥ 500 and ≥ 1000 with graft failure, however, increased infection and 1st-year mortality were documented in related haplo-HCT at the MFI cutoffs studied.Palavras-chave
