Abstract T cell–depleted haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haploHSCT) is an option to treat children with very high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) lacking an HLA-identical donor. We analyzed 127 children with ALL who underwent haploHSCT in first (n = 22), second (n = 48), or third (n = 32), complete remission or in relapse (n = 25). The 5-year leukemia-free survival (LFS) was 30%, 34%, 22%, and 0%, respectively. A risk-factor analysis was performed for patients who underwent transplantation in remission (n = 102). Five-year nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse incidence (RI), and LFS were 37%, 36%, and 27%, respectively. A trend of improved LFS rate and decreased RI was observed for children given a graft with higher number of CD34+ cells (adjusted P = .09 and P = .07, respectively). In a multivariate analysis, haploHSCT performed in larger centers (performing ≥ 231 allotransplantations in the studied period) was associated with improved LFS rate and decreased RI (adjusted P = .01 and P = .04, respectively), adjusting for different patient-, disease-, and transplant-related factors such as number of previous autotransplantations, cytomegalovirus serology status, type of T-cell depletion, and use of total body irradiation and antithymocyte globulin. In conclusion, higher CD34+ cell dose and better patient selection may improve outcomes of children with ALL who undergo a haploHSCT. Transplant centers initiating programs on haploHSCT for children may collaborate with more experienced centers.

Background: The prognosis of refractory/relapsed B-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia (BCP-ALL) remains dismal owing to acquired resistance to chemotherapeutic agents. This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of T-cell replete HLA haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (TCR-haplo-HSCT) for pediatric refractory/relapsed BCP-ALL (RR-BCP-ALL).Methods: Nineteen pediatric patients with RR-BCP-ALL underwent TCR-haplo-HSCT between 2010 and 2019 at the Fukushima Medical University Hospital. The disease status at TCR-haplo-HSCT included complete remission (CR) in eight patients and non-CR with active disease in 11 patients. Total body irradiation-based, busulfan-based, and reduced-intensity conditioning regimens were employed in 11, 6, and 2 patients, respectively. Low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin (thymoglobulin, 2.5 mg/kg) was used in all patients. Graft-vs.-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis was administered with tacrolimus, methotrexate, and prednisolone.Results: All patients received peripheral blood stem cells as the stem cell source. The HLA disparities in graft vs. host directions were 2/8 in one, 3/8 in five, and 4/8 in 13 patients. Among 18 patients who achieved primary engraftment, acute GVHD occurred in all 18 evaluable patients (grade II, 9; grade III, 8; grade IV, 1), and chronic GVHD was observed in 10 out of 15 evaluable patients. Three patients died because of transplant-related mortality. The 3-year overall survival (OS) and leukemia-free survival rates were 57.4 and 42.1%, respectively. Compared to patients older than 10 years in age (N = 10), those younger than 10 years in age (N = 9) showed an excellent OS rate (3-year OS rate: patients < 10 years old, 100%; patients > 10 years old, 20% [95% confidence interval, 3.1–47.5]; p = 0.002).Conclusions: We suggest that TCR haplo-HSCT with low-dose ATG conditioning has the potential to improve the transplantation outcomes in patients with RR-BCP.
