Abstract
Alloreactivity forms the basis of allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), with donor-derived T cell response to recipient antigens mediating clinical responses either in part or entirely. These encompass the different manifestations of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), infection risk, and disease response. While the latter is contingent on disease biology and thus may be less predictable, the former 2 manifestations are more likely to be directly proportional to the magnitude of donor-derived T cell recovery. Herein we explore the quantitative aspects of immune cell recovery following allogeneic HCT and clinical outcomes in 2 cohorts of HLA-matched allograft recipients who received rabbit antithymocyte globulin (ATG) on different schedules (days -9 to -7 versus days -3 to -1). Monocyte as well as donor-derived T cell (ddCD3) recovery was superior in those given ATG early in the course of disease (days -9/-7). This difference was related to a more rapid rate of ddCD3 recovery, driven largely by CD3
