Female donors contribute to a selective graft-versus-leukemia effect in male recipients of HLA-matched, related hematopoietic stem cell transplants
Open accessAbstract
Male recipients of transplants from female (F→M) hematopoietic stem cell donors represent a special group in whom donor T cells that are specific for recipient minor histocompatibility antigens encoded by Y-chromosome genes may contribute to a graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect and to graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We examined the contribution of donor/patient sex to the risk for relapse and GVHD in 3238 patients who underwent HLA-identical sibling hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for hematopoietic malignancies at a single institution. Compared with other sex combinations, male recipients of female transplants had the lowest risk for relapse and the greatest odds for GVHD. Remarkably, after controlling for GVHD as a time-dependent covariate, F→M HSCT still exhibited a lower risk for relapse than other sex combinations, demonstrating a selective GVL effect distinct from that contributed by GVHD. A reduction in relapse after F→M HSCT was observed in patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), acute myelogenous leukemia (AML), and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Taken together, these data suggest that minor H antigens encoded or regulated by genes on the Y chromosome contribute to a selective GVL effect against myeloid and lymphoid leukemias after F→M HSCT.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
