TCRαβ-Depleted Haploidentical Grafts Are a Safe Alternative to HLA-Matched Unrelated Donor Stem Cell Transplants for Infants with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency.

ABSTRACT: Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and gene therapy are the only curative therapies for severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). In patients lacking a matched donor, TCRαβ/CD19-depleted haploidentical family donor transplant (TCRαβ-HaploSCT) is a promising strategy. Conditioned transplant in SCID correlates to better myeloid chimerism and reduced immunoglobulin dependency. We studied transplant outcome in SCID infants according to donor type, specifically TCRαβ-HaploSCT, and conditioning, through retrospective cohort analysis of 52 consecutive infants with SCID transplanted between 2013 and 2020. Median age at transplant was 5.1 months (range, 0.8-16.6). Donors were TCRαβ-HaploSCT (n = 16, 31.4%), matched family donor (MFD, n = 15, 29.4%), matched unrelated donor (MUD, n = 9, 17.6%),
