Abstract Although graft T cells assist in engraftment, mediate antiviral immune-reconstitution, and cause graft-versus-host disease, graft size is not determined by T-cell content of the graft. The conventional method of graft size determination based on CD34+ cells with alemtuzumab serotherapy is associated with delayed immune reconstitution, contributing to an increased risk of viral infections and graft failure. Alemtuzumab, a long half-life anti-CD52 monoclonal antibody is a robust T-cell depleting serotherapy, and relatively spares memory-effector T cells compared to naïve T cells. We therefore hypothesized that graft size based on T-cell content in patients receiving peripheral blood stem cell graft with alemtuzumab serotherapy would facilitate immune-reconstitution without increasing the risk of graft-versus-host disease. We retrospectively analysed twenty-six consecutive patients with non-malignant disorders grafted using alemtuzumab serotherapy and capping of graft T cells to a maximum of 600 million/kg. The graft T-cell capping protocol resulted in early immune-reconstitution without increasing the risk of severe graft-versus-host disease. Graft T-cell content correlated with CD4+ T-cell reconstitution and acute graft-versus-host disease. The course of CMV viraemia was predictable without recurrence and associated with early T-cell recovery. No patient developed chronic graft-versus-host disease. Overall survival at one year was 100% and disease-free survival was 96% at a median of 899 days (range: 243–1562). Graft size determined by peripheral blood stem cell graft T-cell content in patients receiving alemtuzumab serotherapy for non-malignant disorders is safe and leads to early T-cell immune-reconstitution with excellent survival outcomes. |
