Classic Hodgkin lymphoma (cHL) patients with relapsed or refractory disease may benefit from allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT), but many lack a matched sibling donor (MSD). Herein, we compare outcomes of 2 reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) HCT platforms in cHL: T cell-replete related donor haploidentical (haplo) HCT with a post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy)-based approach versus an MSD/calcineurin inhibitor (CNI)-based approach. The study included 596 adult patients who underwent a first RIC allo-HCT for cHL between 2008 and 2016 using either a haplo-PTCy (n = 139) or MSD/CNI-based (n = 457) approach. Overall survival (OS) was the primary endpoint. Secondary endpoints included acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and chronic GVHD (cGVHD), nonrelapse mortality (NRM), relapse/progression, and progression-free survival (PFS). On multivariate analysis, there was no significant difference between haplo/PTCy and MDS/CNI-based approaches in terms of OS (hazard ratio [HR], 1. 07; 95% confidence interval [CI],. 79 to 1. 45; P =. 66) or PFS (HR,. 86; 95% CI,. 68 to 1. 10; P =. 22). Haplo/PTCy was associated with a significantly higher risk of grades II to IV aGVHD (odds ratio [OR], 1. 73, 95% CI, 1. 16 to 2. 59; P =. 007), but the risk of grades III to IV aGVHD was not significantly different between the 2 cohorts (OR,. 61; 95% CI,. 29 to 1. 27; P =. 19). The haplo/PTCy platform provided a significant reduction in cGVHD risk (HR,. 45; 95% CI,. 32 to. 64; P <. 001), and a significant reduction in relapse risk (HR,. 74; 95% CI,. 56 to. 97; P =. 03). There was a statistically nonsignificant trend toward higher NRM with a haplo/PTCy approach (HR, 1. 65; 95% CI,. 99 to 2. 77; P =. 06). Haplo/PTCy-based approaches are associated with lower incidences of cGVHD and relapse, with PFS and OS outcomes comparable with MSD/CNI-based approaches. There was a leaning toward higher NRM with a haplo/PTCy-based platform. These data show that haplo/PTCy allo-HCT in cHL results in survival comparable with MSD/CNI-based allo-HCT. |
