T-cell-replete haploidentical transplantation in acute myeloid leukemia
Résumé
In the last decade, the number of haploidentical stem cell transplantation has increased because of the widespread use of T-cell-replete platforms developed worldwide. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is the main indication to perform allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Here, we reviewed the clinical results obtained using T-cell-replete platforms in different clinical situations such as first or further complete remission, refractory disease, and in the elderly population. Overall, the toxic profile of T-cell-replete haploidentical transplantation is similar to transplantation from other donors, with positive aspects such as a reduced incidence of chronic graft versus-host disease. Leukemia-free survival and overall survival are also similar. In conclusion, T-cell-replete haploidentical transplantation represents a new frontier in the treatment landscape of AML, lessening problems linked to donor search and ensuring that a donor can be found for all patients in a timely manner.
