Earlier reports suggested that umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) for aplastic anemia (AA) was feasible in alternative transplantation. To identify differences in outcomes of UCBT and HLA-matched or mismatched unrelated bone marrow transplantation (UBMT) in adults with AA, we analyzed registry data of the Japan Society for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation and compared results of UCBT (n = 69) to 8/8-matched (n = 101), 7/8-matched (n = 65), or 6/8-matched (n = 37) UBMT. The transplantation period was from 2002 to 2012, and patients 16 years or older with AA were eligible. Median ages were 49, 35, 28, and 30 years for UCBT, 8/8-matched, 7/8-matched, and 6/8-matched UBMT, respectively. In multivariate analysis, risk of mortality was lower for 8/8-matched UBMT compared with that of UCBT (hazard ratio [HR], .55; 95% confidence interval [CI], .32 to .94; P = .029), adjusted for age and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis, which were other associated factors. Mortality risks of 7/8-matched UBMT (HR, .55; 95% CI, .29 to 1.02) or 6/8-matched UBMT (HR, .67; 95% CI, .32 to 1.39) were not significantly different from those of UCBT. Risks of grade 3 or 4 acute and chronic GVHD were not different among the 4 groups. The most prevalent cause of death was graft failure in UCBT and 6/8-matched UBMT and infection in 8/8-matched and 7/8-matched UBMT. Under 40 years old,survival of UCBT was similar to that of UBMT (76%, 79%, 83%, and 83% for UCBT and 8/8-matched, 7/8-matched, and 6/8-matched UBMT, respectively, at 3 years), adjusted for transplantation period, which was another associated factor; however, for ages over 40 years, that of UCBT tended to be lower (47%, 64%, 64%, and 75% for UCBT, 8/8-matched, 7/8-matched, and 6/8-matched UBMT, respectively, at 3 years). To conclude, these data suggest that UCBT could be an alternative treatment option for younger adults when matched sibling or adequate UBMT donors are not available.
早期报告表明,脐血移植(UCBT)治疗再生障碍性贫血(AA)在替代移植中是可行的。为了确定成人AA患者中UCBT与人类白细胞抗原(HLA)匹配或不匹配的无关骨髓移植(UBMT)的结果差异,我们分析了日本造血细胞移植学会的登记数据,并将UCBT(n = 69)的结果与8/8匹配(n = 101)、7/8匹配(n = 65)或6/8匹配(n = 37)的UBMT结果进行了比较。移植期为2002年至2012年,16岁及以上的AA患者符合条件。UCBT、8/8匹配、7/8匹配和6/8匹配的UBMT的中位年龄分别为49岁、35岁、28岁和30岁。在多变量分析中,与UCBT相比,8/8匹配的UBMT的死亡风险较低(风险比[HR],0.55;95%置信区间[CI],0.32至0.94;P = 0.029),对年龄和移植物抗宿主病(GVHD)预防进行了调整,这是其他相关因素。7/8匹配的UBMT(HR,0.55;95%CI,0.29至1.02)或6/8匹配的UBMT(HR,0.67;95%CI,0.32至1.39)的死亡风险与UCBT没有显著差异。4组中3级或4级急性和慢性GVHD的风险没有差异。最常见的死亡原因在UCBT和6/8匹配的UBMT中是移植失败,在8/8匹配和7/8匹配的UBMT中是感染。在40岁以下,UCBT的生存率与UBMT相似(UCBT以及8/8匹配、7/8匹配和6/8匹配的UBMT在3年时分别为76%、79%、83%和83%),对移植期进行了调整,这是另一个相关因素;然而,对于40岁以上的患者,UCBT的生存率往往较低(UCBT、8/8匹配、7/8匹配和6/8匹配的UBMT在3年时分别为47%、64%、64%和75%)。总之,这些数据表明,当没有匹配的同胞或合适的UBMT供体时,UCBT可能是年轻成年人的一种替代治疗选择。
