From the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, MN;
Memorial-Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY; National Marrow
Donor Program, Minneapolis, MN; Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center,
Seattle, WA; Brigham and Women's Hospital and Dana-Farber Cancer
Institute, Boston, MA; MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, TX; Midwest
Children's Cancer Center, Milwaukee, WI; and City of Hope National
Medical Center, Duarte, CA.
We analyzed engraftment of unrelated-donor (URD) bone marrow in
5246 patients who received transplants facilitated by the National
Marrow Donor Program between August 1991 and June 1999. Among patients
surviving at least 28 days, 4% had primary graft failure (failure to
achieve an absolute neutrophil count > 5 × 108/L
before death or second stem-cell infusion). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that engraftment was associated with marrow
matched at HLA-A, HLA-B, and DRB1; higher cell dose; younger recipient;
male recipient; and recipient from a non-African American ethnic
group. More rapid myeloid engraftment was associated with marrow
serologically matched at HLA-A and HLA-B, DRB1 match, higher cell dose
(in non-T-cell-depleted cases), younger recipient, recipient seronegativity for cytomegalovirus (CMV), male donor, no methotrexate for graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis, and transplantation done in
more recent years. A platelet count higher than
50 × 109/L was achieved by 47% of patients by day 100. Conditional on survival to day 100, survival at 3 years was 61% in
those with platelet engraftment at day 30, 58% in those with
engraftment between day 30 and day 100, and 33% in those without
engraftment at day 100 (P < .0001). Factors favoring
platelet engraftment were higher cell dose, DRB1 allele match,
recipient seronegativity for CMV, HLA-A and HLA-B serologically matched
donor, and male donor. Secondary graft failure occurred in 10% of
patients achieving initial engraftment, and 18% of those patients are
alive. These data demonstrate that quality of engraftment is an
important predictor of survival after URD bone marrow transplantation.
