Our study includes 278 patients aged between 40 and 50 years from 29 centers who received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) from MSDs (n=106) and HIDs (n=172) over the last decade. Univariate analysis revealed that HID recipients was associated with more serious disease severity, a delayed alloHSCT after diagnosis, a higher pretransplant transfusion burden and poor performance status pre-transplant than MSD recipients in clinical settings. After these pretransplant clinical factors were well balanced following propensity score-matching (PSM), 80 matched pairs were selected for further analysis. Following PSM, the cumulative incidences of neutrophil were comparable between two matched groups (P = 0.14), while the 100-day engraftment rates of platelet were significant lower in HID-HCT (P < 0.001); The HID cohort showed higher cumulative incidence of grade II-IV acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) compared with MSD group (P = 0.04). In contrast, the incidence of severe (grade III-IV) acute GVHD and chronic GVHD were not statistically significant (severe acute GVHD P = 0.10; chronic GVHD P = 0.28). Our study showed comparable overall survival (OS) (P = 0.14); failure free survival (FFS) (P = 0.23); GVHD-free/relapse-free survival (GRFS) (P = 0.18) between matched HID and MSD recipients. In conclusion, our data indicates that alloHSCT from an HID should be considered for SAA patients between 40-50 years old who do not have an MSD.
