Here we describe a retrospective analysis of outcomes in 299 patients who underwent peripheral blood haplo-HCT with PTCy from July 2009 through May 2021 and their association with donor characteristics. Patients had mostly acute leukemias and high or very high DRI. Multivariate analyses were conducted examining OS, NRM, relapse, cytokine release syndrome, acute and chronic GVHD. Donor characteristics included age, sex, relationship, ABO status, CMV status, and HLA match grade. Our analysis revealed increasing donor age was associated with higher NRM (compared to age <30; age 30-44 HR, 1.65; P = 0.110, age >44 HR, 1.80; P = 0.056) but lower relapse risk (compared to age <30; age 30-44 HR, 0.61; P = 0.034, age > 44 HR, 0.71; P = 0.132). There were no differences in CRS, aGVHD or cGVHD. We found no difference in outcomes based on the donor-recipient relationship. No differences were found based on HLA match grade or DRB1 match status. Increasing donor age was associated with lower relapse risk but higher NRM, resulting in no difference in OS based on donor age. Other donor factors including relationship (parent/sibling/child/ maternal), CMV status, donor sex, HLA match grade, and DRB1 status were not associated with outcomes.
