Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation when a matched sibling donor is not available: unrelated donors Avichai Shimoni, MD Chaim Sheba Medical Center, Tel-Hashomer INA06_1.ppt
HLA Genotypical matched sibling is the best donor for HSC transplantation • Only 30% of patients have a matched sibling donor • 50-70% can find a suitable match in the unrelated donor registries, depending on ethnic origin • The median time from the start of search to transplant is 4 months.
Results of MUD transplants • Results have markedly improved over the last decade • Better matching of donors high resolution DNA typing • Larger registries • Better supportive care, more tolerable conditioning regimens

Sheba experience • 325 pts with AML/MDS (n=256), ALL (n=69) transplanted between 2000-8 • Donor: HLA-matched sibling - 187 Matched unrelated - 138 • Median follow-up 44 months (range, 10-112 months)
5-yr OS MUD 37 (28-45) Sib37 (29-44)
Alternative donor vs. Sib. Donor transplant • With modern HLA typing and supportive treatments the results of transplant from alternative donors (mainly unrelated donors) are not statistically significant different than transplant from sibling donors • The more GVHD and infections are somewhat balanced by stronger GVL effect • However hospitalization period and costs are much higher
Donor Selection – HLA Matching • General agreement that fully HLA-matched related or unrelated donor is the goal – but not every patient who needs a transplant will have one. • Prior large studies suggest conflicting strategies for choosing the best partially matched donor: • Antigens vs. alleles • Class I vs. class II • Specific loci
Study Population • N = 3,860 US transplants, 1988-2003 • AML, ALL, CML, MDS • Myeloablative conditioning • Calcineurin inhibitor-based GVHD prophylaxis, T replete grafts (79%) • Bone marrow (94%) • Median follow-up 6 years
Any Single Locus Mismatch 9/10 associated with worse survival, DFS, TRM, AGVHD
Single Antigen vs Allele MM No statistical difference if mismatched at antigen or allele level, except for C
Specific Single Locus Mismatches Considering 8/8 as “fully matched” Survival: Mismatch at A or DRB1 vs. B or C, RR 1.18 (1.10-1.38), p=0.04
Survival 9-10% lower overall survival with each additional mismatch

10/10 MUD transplant has identical outcome as sibling transplants in patients with AML.
Sheba MUD transplants 2000-9 • 260 pts • Diagnoses: • Matching: 10/10 165 pts 9/10 56 pts ≤ 8/10 37 pts
Non-relapse mortality (all MUDs) mismatched MUD ≤ 9/10 MUD (10/10)
relapse mortality (All MUDs) MUD (10/10) mismatched MUD ≤ 9/10
MUD ≤ 10/10 MUD 10/10
Mismatched Vs matched MUD • Mismatched MUD is associated with increased risk of non-relapse mortality, predominantly due to GVHD • Mismatched MUD is associated with potent graft-versus malignancy effect
Mismatched Vs matched MUD –Cont.Why different than the NMDP study? • Kroger at al Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 4/2009 • 110 pts 10/10, 91 pts 9/10, 67 pts 6-8/10 • No difference in OS; 45%, 43%, 39% • No difference in TRM, relapse, GVHD • May be related to high dose ATG given in the conditioning ATG in NMDP study? • Other differences: study size, PBSC, RIC, % advanced disease
BUT . . . Requiring a Fully Matched Donor Limits Access to HCT • HLA-matched unrelated adult donors are found for only ~1/2 of patients without an HLA-identical sibling • Time to identify a suitable donor is too long for some patients
The only way to substantially improve access to (and outcome of) transplantation is to tolerate a certain amount of HLA-mismatching and avoid undue delays in treatment MUD search should be started early in the course of disease
Conclusions (1) • Overall probability of survival after unrelated donor transplantation is 40-50% • Higher in young patients with early disease, fully matched donors • Worse in older patients with advanced disease, mismatched donors • Although 8/8 matched donors are preferred, using a partially mismatched donor may be preferable to delaying HCT • Decisions depend on predicted efficacy of HCT and alternative treatments, given patient’s constellation of risk factors
Conclusions (2) • When selecting among mismatched donors: • Mismatching at HLA-DQ and HLA-DP are not associated with worse survival • The adverse effects of allele and antigen mismatches appear equivalent (except C) • When selecting among equivalently matched donors, consider: • Younger age • CMV negativity (for CMV – recipients) • Avoiding F to M transplants • To optimize outcomes, donor search should be initiated early in patient’s treatment course (increase the chance of finding a matched donor and decrease the chance of disease progression before HCT)
