title: [The role of CD25 antibody in unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To explore the role of CD(25) antibody on engraftment and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis in unrelated hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (UHSCT).
  
  
  METHODS
  CD(25) 1 mg/kg was given on day 1, day 4 post-transplantation in 27 patients of UHSCT.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Hematopoietic recovery was obtained in 26 patients. One patient died before hematopoietic recovery. Acute GVHD occurred in 17 patients and 6 patients with II or more than degree acute GVHD (23%). Three patients experienced relapse and other 3 patients with serious infection. In these 26 eligible patients, 19 patients got disease free survival.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  CD(25) antibody plays an important role on engraftment and GVHD prophylaxis in the treatment of UHSCT and does not increase rate of leukemia relapse. It provides a way of GVHD prophylaxis in unrelated and HLA mismatched hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
