Résumé

Matching for HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 loci (8/8 match) is currently the gold standard for unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). In Europe, patients are also matched at the HLA-DQB1 loci (10/10 match). However, there is increasing evidence that matching at HLA-DRB3/4/5 loci may help to lower transplant-related morbidity and mortality. We therefore investigated the impact of HLA-DRB3/4/5 mismatches on outcomes in 1975 patients who received a first 10/10 matched unrelated donor (MUD) HCT in France from 2000 to 2012 for a hematological malignancy. High-resolution typing was performed at HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, -DQB1, -DPB1 and -DRB3/4/5 loci for all donor/recipient pairs. Compared with DRB3/4/5-matched pairs, patients who received a MUD HCT from a DRB3/4/5 mismatched donor had a significantly increased risk of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) (Adjusted Hazard Ratio (HR) 1.43 (1.07 to 1.90)) associated with lower graft-versus-host disease-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS) (Adjusted HR 1.20 (1.02 to 1.42)). Conversely, we observed no differences in terms of chronic GVHD, non-relapse mortality, relapse and overall survival. However, we believe that patients stand to benefit from DRB3/4/5 loci being considered for unrelated donor selection to improve GRFS and then quality of life after unrelated HCT.
