Resumen:
Background.Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a cause of late morbidity and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Although studies evaluating haploidentical allo-HSCT (haplo-HSCT) using posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) demonstrate lower cGVHD rates, comprehensive data describing the clinical profile, risk factors, or outcomes of cGVHD within this platform are scarce.Methods.We conducted a retrospective multicenter analysis of 389 consecutive patients who underwent haplo-HSCT PTCy in 7 transplant centers of the Spanish Group Grupo Espa & ntilde;ol de Trasplante Hematopoy & eacute;tico y Terapia Celular (GETH-TC) between 2008 and 2020 describing incidence, clinical profile, risk factors, and cGVHD outcomes.Results.Ninety-five patients of 389 developed cGVHD. Our data revealed that the incidence and severity of cGVHD are lower than those reported for HLA-identical transplantation with conventional prophylaxis and that the strongest predictor for cGVHD was previous acute GVHD (P = 0.031). Also, recipient age >= 60 y (P = 0.044) was protective against cGVHD. Moreover, patients with moderate cGVHD had longer event-free survival at 3 y than other patients (P = 0.016) and a lower relapse rate at 3 y (P = 0.036).Conclusions.Our results support the fact that the incidence and severity of cGVHD are lower than those reported for HLA-identical transplantation with conventional prophylaxis. In this series, patients who develop moderate cGVHD after haplo-HSCT PTCy had a higher overall survival and event-free survival, and lower relapse, suggesting higher graft-versus-leukemia effect. Although this is the largest series focused on characterizing cGVHD in haplo-HSCT PTCy, further prospective studies are needed to confirm the findings.
