Haploidentical stem cell transplantation (haplo-SCT) is an option for patients without human leukocyte antigen-matched related or unrelated donor. Post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is an effective method of graft versus host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis and permits the use of T-cell replete grafts in settings were ex vivo manipulation is not feasible.
