Overview

Prospective trial demonstrates improved transplant outcomes in children with transfusion-dependent thalassemia, suggesting enhanced safety and efficacy.

Key Points

  • This research evaluates a new low-toxicity myeloablative conditioning regimen for haploidentical HSCT in children with transfusion-dependent thalassemia.
  • Prospective, single-center clinical trial (ChiCTR2300071890)
  • Evaluated conditioning regimen: fludarabine, busulfan, thiotepa, and melphalan in patients aged ≥7 years
  • Included GVHD prophylaxis with half-dose PTCY and in vivo T-cell depletion.
  • The 2-year thalassemia-free survival and overall survival rates were both 93.1%.
  • Neutrophil and platelet engraftment were achieved in all patients, with no graft failures reported.
  • Grade II-IV acute GVHD occurred in 17.2% of patients, chronic GVHD in 6.9%, and manageable regimen-related toxicities were observed.
