Background: Previous studies have demonstrated racial disparities in MPN outcomes, but there is no data regarding impact of race on outcomes of HCT in MPN. This is a retrospective study evaluating transplant related outcomes in Hispanics undergoing allogeneic HCT for MPN/MF in a large hospital in South Texas. Methods: A total of 45 patients who underwent HCT for MPN disorders from January 2008 to December 2020 at the Methodist Hospital, San Antonio were included. Race was self-reported by patients and obtained from electronic medical record along with other variables. Significance of variation in categorical outcomes were assessed with Chi-square tests. OS was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared between races using the log rank test. Results: This study analyzed 19 Non-Hispanic White (NHW) and 19 Hispanic (H) patients (7 patients were excluded due to unknown or other race). Patients primarily underwent transplantation for Myelofibrosis (n=19) followed by CMML (n=12) and MDS-MPN-U (n=7). There were no significant differences between NHW and H patients with regards to performance status, conditioning regimen, stem cell source and GvHD prophylaxis. However, H were younger at transplant with a median of 52 years (range 42-71) compared with 62 years (41-76) in NHW (p=0.50) and were more likely to have a haploidentical donor (47% vs 11%, p < 0.001). There were no significant differences in time to neutrophil (median 22 days (range 15-560) versus 25 days (range 8-48 days), p=0.7) or platelet recovery (median 24 days (range 15-636) versus 25 days (range 6-102), p=0.9) in NHW vs H patients. There were no significant differences in cumulative incidence of grade 1-2 and grade 3-4 acute GvHD between NHW (50 and 50%) vs H (40 and 60%) patients (p=0.4 and p=0.5, respectively). There was significant difference in the cumulative incidence of chronic GvHD (68% NHW compared to 37% H, p=0.03). Median OS was 6.75 years in NHW and 2.67 years in H (p=0.08). The cumulative incidence of Relapse Mortality (RM) and non-RM were not statistically significant between NHW and H, however H had higher percentage of relapse related mortality at 5 years (5.3% vs 17.5%)(Table). Among the 5 NHW and 8 H non-relapse deaths, causes of death were similar among the two groups – the most common being infection (20% and 38%, respectively), acute and chronic (40% and 25%) GvHD and graft failure (0% and 25%). Conclusions: NHW and H had comparable relapse, non-relapse and survival rates likely due to similar access to treatment and follow-up within a single institution. Larger and prospective studies are needed to further elucidate this important topic.
