Comparison of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Outcomes Using Matched Sibling Donors, Haploidentical Donors, and Immunosuppressive Therapy for Patients With Acquired Aplastic Anemia.

ABSTRACT: We retrospectively compared the outcomes of 387 consecutive patients with acquired aplastic anemia (AA) who underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with a fludarabine-based conditioning regimen from matched sibling donors (MSD) (n = 108) or haploidentical donors (HID) (n = 91) and immunosuppressive therapy (IST) (n = 188) from 2014 to 2020 at our hospital. Compared with HID-HSCT, MSD-HSCT had a lower incidence of graft failure (1% vs. 7%, p = 0.062), grade II-IV acute graft versus host disease (aGvHD) (16% vs. 35%, p = 0.001), and mild to severe chronic GvHD (cGvHD) (8% vs. 23%, p = 0.007), but an equivalent incidence of grade III-IV aGvHD (8% vs. 12%, p = 0.237) and moderate to severe cGvHD (3% vs. 9%, p = 0.076). HSCT had superio
