Cord blood transplantation from unrelated donors in adults with high-risk acute myeloid leukemia.
Clinical studies focused on disease-specific outcomes of cord blood transplant (CBT) from unrelated donors are limited. We analyzed the outcome and prognostic factors of 49 adults with high-risk acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) receiving single-unit CBT from unrelated donors after myeloablative (MA) conditioning at a single institution. Conditioning regimens were based on the combination of thi...
متن کاملComparison of unrelated cord blood transplantation and HLA-mismatched unrelated bone marrow transplantation for adults with leukemia.
Recent advances in unrelated cord blood transplantation (UCBT) and high-resolution typing of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) from an unrelated donor have increased choices in alternative donor/stem cell source selection. We assessed HLA-mismatched locus-specific comparison of the outcomes of 351 single-unit UCB and 1,028 unrelated bone marrow (UBM) adult recipients 16 years old or older at the ti...
متن کاملEngraftment kinetics and graft failure after single umbilical cord blood transplantation using a myeloablative conditioning regimen.
Umbilical cord blood transplant recipients are exposed to an increased risk of graft failure, a complication leading to a higher rate of transplant-related mortality. The decision and timing to offer a second transplant after graft failure is challenging. With the aim of addressing this issue, we analyzed engraftment kinetics and outcomes of 1268 patients (73% children) with acute leukemia (64%...
متن کاملUmbilical cord blood transplantation from unrelated donors in patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia.
There are very few disease-specific studies focusing on outcomes of umbilical cord blood transplantation for Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We report the outcome of 45 patients with Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia who underwent myeloablative single unit cord blood transplantation from unrelated donors within the GETH/GITMO cooperativ...
متن کاملUnrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation in children and adults.
Umbilical cord blood (UCB) has recently been explored as an alternative haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) source for allogeneic immunotherapy in both adults and paediatric patients with haematological malignancies and marrow failure syndromes. The relative ease of procurement, tolerance of 1-2 antigen human-leukocyte antigen (HLA) mismatch and the lower than anticipated risk of severe graft-versus...
