Study Stopped
DSMB recommended halting the study owing to futility after the first interim analysis in August 2024.

Brief Summary
During the past decades, the wider application of easily available haploidentical donor hematopoietic cell transplant (haplo-HCT) has been made possible through the T cell-replete (TCR) regimens including T cell regulation with anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG)/granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) and post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy). To achieve decreased non-relapse mortality (NRM) and improved long-term outcomes in haploidentical transplant, the joint use of ATG and PTCy might effectively reduce graft versus host disease (GVHD) and mortality associated with severe forms of GVHD. Recently, investigators established a regimen using low-dose PTCy in conjunction with standard-dose ATG in order to lower the risk of GVHD without compromising engraftment and disease relapse.

Study Arms (2)
ATG-PTCy cohort
EXPERIMENTALThe conditioning regimen is ATG/G-CSF based protocol (the so-called Beijing protocol). The rabbit ATG (Sangstat-Genzyme) 2.5mg/kg/day i.v., on days from - 5 to - 2 were administered.Two doses of 14.5 mg/kg Cy were given on days 3 and 4 post-HCT in ATG-PTCy cohort.
ATG cohort
ACTIVE COMPARATORThe conditioning regimen is ATG/G-CSF based protocol (the so-called Beijing protocol). The rabbit ATG (Sangstat-Genzyme) 2.5mg/kg/day i.v., on days from - 5 to - 2 were administered.
Interventions
A total of 10mg/kg ATG was administered, and two doses of 14.5 mg/kg Cy were given on days 3 and 4 post-HCT in ATG-PTCy cohort.
