Clinical outcomes of three haploidentical transplantation protocols for hematologic malignancies based on data from the Chinese Bone Marrow Transplantation Registry Group.

This study aimed to demonstrate the clinical outcomes of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)/antithymocyte globulin (ATG), posttransplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) and PTCy combined with lowdose ATG (PTCy with ATGlow)-based haploidentical transplantation protocols in patients with haematologic malignancies. The comparisons were conducted via propensity score matching (PSM) analysis to balance the basic characteristics among different groups and were based on the transplantation data reported to the Chinese Bone Marrow Transplantation Registry Group (CBMTRG) from January 2020 to December 2022. For each patient in the PTCy or PTCy with ATGlow group, patients (at a 1:2 ratio) from the GCSF/ ATG group were selected. In total, the PTCy group (n=122) was matched with G-CSF/ATG Group 1 (n=230), and the PTCy+ATGlow group (n=123) was matched with G-CSF/ATG Group 2 (n=226). Compared with those in the PTCy group, the incidences of 28-day neutrophil engraftment (P=0.005), 100- day platelet engraftment (P=0.002), median time to neutrophil engraftment (P.
