In 15 infants with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID), immunological reconstitution was attempted by bone marrow transplantation (BMT) from HLA-haploidentical parents. To prevent graft vs. host disease (GvHD), marrow grafts were depleted of contaminating T-lymphocytes using lectin agglutination and rosette formation with sheep red blood cells. Thirteen patients received transplants without undergoing prior cytoreductive conditioning; 11 of these developed donor-dependent T-cell functions, 2 failed to do this. One of these 2 and 2 further patients received cytoreductive treatment prior to repeat and to 1st transplants and in 2, complete lymphohemopoietic reconstitution was observed. Of the 15 patients who received transplants, 11 are currently alive. Two recently treated patients remain in the hospital, 9 are at home with stable T-cell functions. Normal humoral immune functions have developed upto now in 3 patients. In the others, .gamma. globulins are regularly substituted. Complications of acute or chronic GvHD were not observed with the exception of 1 case who developed transient GvHD of the skin. In a majority of patients with SCID, T-cell functions can evidently develop without GvHD following haploidentical, T-cell-depleted BMT. Exceptional patients require preconditioning to allow donor cell engraftment, an approach that also appears to facilitate reconstitution of humoral immune functions.
