More Details: Purpose Pediatric acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with KMT2A rearrangements has a very different prognosis. Poor outcomes cannot be avoided even after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In order to investigate the prognosis and efficacy, we conducted a retrospective analysis.Patients and methods We retrospectively analyzed a total of 32 children with KMT2A rearrangements AML treated in our hospital between January 2015 and February 2021.Results The proportion of patients with KMT2A-rearranged in the medium-risk group of overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) was 100%. No differences in OS, EFS and cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) were detected between the haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) and full matched HSCT (P = 0.289, P = 0.303, P = 0.303). Acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was often detected in the haplo-HSCT cohort, while full matched HSCT had no obvious aGVHD, assessed as≤1 grade (P
