Description
Summary:Highlights • Haploidentical and unrelated donor transplantation have similar risks of acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease • Haploidentical and unrelated donor recipients have similar probabilities of survival • Human Herpesvirus-6 reactivation is higher for haploidentical transplant recipients • Platelet recovery, but not neutrophil recovery, is faster using peripheral blood stem cells for haploidentical transplants • Haploidentical transplantation may achieve more robust early lymphoid engraftment
