Association of HLA-C disparity with graft failure after marrow transplantation from unrelated donors.
Disparity for HLA-A or HLA-B antigens increases the risk of marrow graft rejection, but the relevance of HLA-C is unknown because typing methods have not been sufficiently accurate for clinical use. We designed a matched case-control study and employed DNA sequencing methods to evaluate the role of HLA-C disparity in 21 patients who experienced graft failure (cases) following transplantation wi...
متن کاملFK506 in combination with methotrexate for the prevention of graft-versus-host disease after marrow transplantation from matched unrelated donors.
The safety and potential efficacy of FK506 in combination with a short course of methotrexate (MTX) for the prevention of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after marrow transplantation from HLA-matched unrelated donors was evaluated in a single-arm Phase II study conducted at two centers. Forty-three patients, 15 to 54 (median 41) years of age, were transplanted for hematologic malignancie...
متن کاملCharacterization of cells emerging at the time of graft failure after bone marrow transplantation from an unrelated marrow donor.
To help elucidate the mechanism responsible for graft failure (GF) following a T-cell depleted bone marrow transplant (BMT) from an unrelated donor, five patients (2 chronic myelogenous leukemia, 1 acute undifferentiated leukemia, 2 myelodysplastic syndrome) who experienced this complication were studied. All patients were HLA class I identical with their donors as determined by serology and on...
متن کاملThe role of HLA-DPB1 disparity in the development of acute graft-versus-host disease following unrelated donor marrow transplantation.
The role of HLA-DPB1 disparity in the development of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) following unrelated donor (URD) marrow transplantation is unknown. We studied 129 patients who underwent marrow transplantation from HLA-A, -B, -DRB, and -DQB matched URDs to determine whether matching for HLA-DPB1 alleles significantly decreased the risk of developing acute GVHD. HLA-DPB1 alleles were d...
متن کاملOptimization of conditioning for marrow transplantation from unrelated donors for patients with aplastic anemia after failure of immunosuppressive therapy.
In 87 patients with aplastic anemia who failed to respond to immunosuppressive treatment, we determined the minimal dose of total body irradiation (TBI) required when added to antithymocyte globulin (ATG, 30 mg/kg x 3) plus cyclophosphamide (CY, 50 mg/kg x 4) to achieve engraftment of unrelated donor marrow. TBI was started at 3 x 200 cGy, to be escalated or deescalated in steps of 200 cGy depe...
