Popis: Little information is available regarding whether unrelated cord blood transplantation (CBT) or an HLA 1-3 antigen-mismatched related donor peripheral blood stem-cell transplantation (PBSCT) using low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) is superior as an alternative transplantation for patients who lack an HLA-matched sibling or unrelated donor. Therefore, we evaluated 7861 patients with hematologic malignancies (aged 0 to 70 years) who received either a CBT without ATG (CBT-no ATG, n = 7034) or an HLA 1-3 antigen-mismatched related donor PBSCT using low-dose ATG (PBSCT-ATG, n = 827). CBT-no ATG was associated with significantly better overall survival (OS) than the use of a PBSCT-ATG (hazard ratio [HR], 0.77; p .001), although PBSCT-ATG patients with an HLA 1 antigen-mismatch showed OS comparable to that in the CBT-no ATG group. Neutrophil and platelet engraftment was significantly delayed, whereas the incidences of nonrelapse mortality, and severe graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) were significantly lower in the CBT-no ATG group. The incidences of relapse and chronic GVHD were comparable between these donors. In conclusion, CBT-no ATG may be a better alternative than HLA-mismatched related donor PBSCT using low-dose ATG. Notably, HLA 2-3 antigen mismatch-related transplantation with low-dose ATG had significant adverse effects on transplantation outcomes.
