NK Cell Impairment after Haploidentical Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant in Patients Receiving Post-Transplant Cyclophosphamide (PTCy)

Haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (haplo-HCT) with post-transplant cyclophosphamide (PTCy) as graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis is frequently used for patients who do not have HLA-identical donors. However, the effect of PTCy on immune reconstitution (IR) has not been studied extensively in large prospective cohorts, despite a high incidence of early viral infections. We quantified IR in 60 patients after haplo-HCT...
