Successful Haploidentical Stem Cell Transplant With Posttransplant Cyclophosphamide in Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome With Myeloablative Conditioning.

Abstract

Hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) is the only curative treatment modality for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. Haploidentical HSCT with posttransplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is an upcoming option in children with nonmalignant conditions. However, only few cases have been reported for Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome HSCT with PTCy approach. Here we report a 4-year-old boy, treated successfully by haploidentical HSCT with myeloablative conditioning (busulfan, fludarabine, and thiotepa) and PTCy. Posttransplant chimerism was fully donor. Of 13 cases (current case and other 12 published cases) 10 are alive and disease free after haploidentical HSCT with PTCy. Haploidentical HSCT with PTCy using myeloablative conditioning is feasible and safe.
