Total marrow and lymphoid irradiation as conditioning in haploidentical transplant with posttransplant cyclophosphamide.

ABSTRACT: Posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) platform has shown low rates of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and nonrelapse mortality (NRM) after haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HaploHCT). However, because of the limited disease control, relapse rate remains a major cause of treatment failure in high-risk patients. Total marrow and lymphoid irradiation (TMLI) allows for delivery of high radiation to bone marrow and other targeted structures, without increasing off-target radiation exposure and toxicity to end organs. In this phase 1 trial, 31 patients with high-risk and/or active primary refractory leukemias or myelodysplastic syndrome underwent peripheral blood stem cell HaploHCT with TMLI, fludarabine, and cyclophosphamide as the conditioning regimen. Radiation dose was esc
