Overview

The study is a monocentric, interventional study that evaluates the efficacy of allogeneic HLA-matched or haploidentical transplantation consisting of an irradiation-based conditioning regimen coupled with donor Treg/Tcon adoptive immunotherapy for high-risk acute leukemia patients.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• AML patients

  • Availability of a hematopoietic stem cell donor (family or unrelated HLA-matched or HLA-haploidentical with the patient) suitable to be treated with G-CSF (10 mcg/kg/die) for a maximum of 7 days and able to tolerate 2 or more leukaphereses.
  • Age ≥ 18 and ≤ 65 years
  • ECOG ≤ 2
  • HCT-CI ≤ 4 (51,52)
  • Absence of relevant psychiatric diseases
  • Signature of the informed consent

• Availability of a hematopoietic stem cell family donor (family or unrelated HLA-matched or HLA-haploidentical with the patient) suitable to be treated with G-CSF (10 mcg/kg/die) for a maximum of 7 days and able to tolerate 2 or more leukaphereses.
