Summary

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm causing bone marrow failure and high risk of leukemia transformation. JAK2 inhibitors improve symptoms but do not cure MF. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is the only potential cure, though limited donor availability restricts access. Haploidentical transplantation shows promise but associated with higher graft failure and treatment related mortality. We recently developed a novel regimen of haplo-SCT for MF. This study aims to investigate this novel protocol in a prospective trial to improve MF outcomes.

Detailed description

Myelofibrosis (MF) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by clonal proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells, reactive hyperplasia of bone marrow stromal cells, and secondary inflammation and fibrosis, leading to progressive bone marrow failure and a high risk of acute myeloid leukemia transformation, with a median survival of about 6 years. While JAK2 inhibitors like ruxolitinib have been approved to improve symptoms and survival in MF patients, they do not provide a cure. Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) remains the only potential cure, but limited availability of matched sibling and unrelated donors often prevents patients from receiving this treatment. Haploidentical stem cell transplantation has shown good efficacy in leukemia but is less studied in MF, possibly due to concerns about graft failure, complications, and high transplant-related mortality. Our team has applied a novel haploidentical transplantation protocol for treating MF, which has shown promising results in preliminary observations. This study aims to further validate the effectiveness of this protocol through a prospective clinical trial, potentially establishing an effective approach for HSCT in MF and improving overall transplant outcomes.

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation	This is a single-arm study in which all patients will undergo haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for the treatment of myelofibrosis. Pre-transplant Evaluation: Evaluation includes status of primary Disease, donor specific antibodies (DSA), organ function (assessments for heart, liver, lungs, kidneys, and the nervous system), and Spleen size. Transplantation Protocol: Conditioning Regimen: Dac/TT/Bu/Flu/ATG regimen: Decitabine 100 mg/m², on day -12. Thiotepa (TT) 5 mg/kg/day, on days -11 and -10. Busulfan 0.8 mg/kg body weight, every 6 hours, on days -8 to -6. Fludarabine 30 mg/m², once daily, on days -6 to -2. Anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) 2.5 mg/kg body weight, once daily, on days -5 to -2. Transplant Donor: Haploidentical donor. GVHD (Graft-versus-Host Disease) Prophylaxis Regimen: Cyclosporine, mycophenolate mofetil, and short-course methotrexate for GVHD prevention. Graft: Target MNC (Mononuclear Cells): 6-8 × 10⁸/kg. Target CD34+ stem cells: 5 × 10⁶/kg
