Late Mortality after Allogeneic Blood or Marrow Transplantation for Inborn Errors of Metabolism: A Report from the Blood or Marrow Transplant Survivor Study-2 (BMTSS-2).

ABSTRACT: Allogeneic blood or marrow transplantation (BMT) is currently considered the standard of care for patients with specific inborn errors of metabolism (IEM). However, there is a paucity of studies describing long-term survival and cause-specific late mortality after BMT in these patients with individual types of IEM. We studied 273 patients who had survived ≥2 years after allogeneic BMT for IEM performed between 1974 and 2014. The most prevalent IEM in our cohort were X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD; 37.3%), Hurler syndrome (35.1%), and metachromatic leukodystrophy (MLD; 10.2%). Conditional on surviving ≥2 years after BMT, the overall survival for the entire cohort was 85.5 ± 2.4% at 10 years and 73.5 ± 3.7% at 20 years. The cohort had a 29-fold increased risk of late death compared with
