Abstract

Graft rejection, with persistent pancytopenia, is well documented after allogeneic BMT (hematopoietic SCT (HSCT)) for severe aplastic anemia (SAA) and the prognosis is poor. The recovery of host-hematopoiesis, autologous recovery (AR), after allogeneic HSCT is a rare event and the incidence and long-term survival are unknown. We report a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients in the Aplastic Anaemia Working Party of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT-WPSAA) registry between 1973 and 2005. A total of 45 cases of AR, of 1205 patients transplanted for SAA in 57 centers are reported. We describe characteristics and long-term outcome of patients with AR, compared with SAA patients from participating transplant centers without AR (n=1024) and patients with graft rejection (n=136) without autologous recovery. The estimated cumulative incidence of AR was 4.2% (3.1-5.6) (confidence interval (CI) 95%) with an OS of 84% (95% CI 83-107%). The OS of the control group was 74% (81-90) at 10 years of follow up, whereas the patients with graft failure had an OS of 16% (CI 12-28%). This retrospective analysis establishes the incidence and long-term survival of patients experiencing AR after allogeneic HSCT for SAA.
