Acute Myeloid Leukemia Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Myeloproliferative Syndromes Myelodysplastic Syndromes | Other: Haplo donor stem cell transplantation Other: HLA 10/10 MUD stem cell transplantation | Phase 3 |
An unrelated adult donor who is HLA-matched to the recipient at the allele-level (at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DQB1 and -DRB1) is considered the best choice in the absence of an HLA-matched sibling for patients needing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (SCT).
However, using matched unrelated donors (MUD) is limited by (1) a prolonged time to identify and schedule donation for some MUD allowing some patients to relapse before transplantation can be performed, and (2) limited availability of fully HLA-MUD for the non-Caucasian population.
Alternative donors are used for transplantation in patients without a fully-MUD including single HLA mismatched unrelated donor, unrelated umbilical cord blood and grafts from haploidentical related donors but are associated with higher non-relapse mortality and delayed immune reconstitution.
A more recent strategy for haploidentical (haplo) related donor SCT (haplo-SCT) has improved dramatically outcomes using T-cell replete grafts with administration of post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy).
From retrospective studies, haplo-SCT with PTCy are associated with similar overall and progression-free survivals as with MUD stem cell transplantation (MUD-SCT), but with lower rates of toxicity and graft versus host disease (GvHD), and thus potentially better results than MUD-SCT after reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen. Haplo-SCT with PTCy is thus highly discussed nowadays motivating prospective trials to confirm the benefit of this procedure.
In the setting of a myeloablative conditioning (MAC) regimen in adults with high risk hematological malignancies, few retrospective non-controlled registry studies recently suggest that outcomes after haplo-SCT using PTCy approach might also be superior in terms of GVHD free survival to that after MUD stem cell transplantation (MUD-SCT).
The investigators propose to address this question, in a randomized prospective phase III clinical trial comparing HLA 10/10 MUD and haplo-SCT after MAC regimen. The stem cell source will be bone marrow for haploidentical SCT and peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) for HLA-matched unrelated transplantation.
The primary endpoint is the 1-year progression free survival without acute grade II-IV GvHD and without moderate and severe chronic GvHD.

For myeloid malignancies, the relapse will be defined by the reappearance of leukemic cells after SCT.
For ALL, the relapse will be defined by: the reappearance of leukemic cells after SCT and/or an increase of at least 50 % of the smallest measure of any lymphnode considered abnormal in the pre-transplantation period for patients in partial response and in non-responders and/or the appearance of any new lesion in comparison with the pre-transplantation period evaluation.
- GvHD evaluation:
Grading of acute GVHD will be performed according to the classification of Glusckberg.
Grading of chronic GVHD will be performed according to the NIH classification.

Severity of veno-occlusive disease. VOD severity will be assessed using new EBMT criteria (Mohty et al., 2016). EBMT criteria for grading VOD severity in adult patients are based on the level of bilirubin and its rate of change, liver function (transaminase), weight increase, renal function and the kinetic of their onset (Mohty et al., 2016). This grading system is divided into five categories as following: mild, moderate; severe, very severe; and death.

- Quality of life post transplantation: EORTC QLQ-C30- v3 [ Time Frame: 1 week post-transplantation ]
Quality of life evaluated using questionnaire "European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire" (EORTC QLQ-C30- v3). The QLQ-C30 is composed of both multi-item scales and single-item measures. These include five functional scales, three symptom scales, a global health status / QoL scale, and six single items. Each of the multi-item scales includes a different set of items - no item occurs in more than one scale. All of the scales and single-item measures range in score from 0 to 100. A high scale score represents a higher response level. A high score for a functional scale represents a high/healthy level of functioning. A high score for the global health status/ QoL represents a high QoL and a high score for a symptom scale/item represents a high level of symptomatology/problems.
