Résumé

We performed a retrospective analysis on 124 patients with transfusion-dependent thalassemia who were registered in the German pediatric registry for stem cell transplantation. All patients underwent first allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) between 2011 and 2020 and belonged mainly to Pesaro risk class 1-2. Four-year overall (OS) and thalassemia-free survival (TFS) were 94.5% ± 2.9% and 88.0% ± 3.4% after treosulfan-fludarabine-thiotepa- and 96.9% ± 3.1% (P = 0.763) and 96.9% ± 3.1% (P = 0.155) after busulfan-fludarabine-based conditioning. Mixed chimerism below 75% occurred predominantly in treosulfan-based regimens (27.5% versus 6.2%). OS and TFS did not differ significantly between matched sibling, other matched family and matched unrelated donor (UD) HSCTs (OS: 100.0%, 100.0%, 96.3% ± 3.6%; TFS: 96.5% ± 2.4%, 90.0% ± 9.5%, 88.9% ± 6.0%). However, mismatched UD-HSCTs performed less favorable (OS: 84.7% ± 7.3% (P = 0.029); TFS: 79.9% ± 7.4% (P = 0.082)). We generated a scoring system reflecting the risk to develop mixed chimerism in our cohort. The main risk-reducing factors were a high CD3+ cell count (≥6 × 10
