Univariable associations between combined HLA-DPB1 T-cell epitope and expression matching and outcome afer 8/8 HLA-matched unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplantation. Five-year outcome probabilities (A,B) or (C) 5-year cumulative incidence are shown for HLA-DPB1 T-cell epitope (TCE)-permissive and high expression (TPHE) mismatches, other (i.e. non-TPHE) mismatches or allele matches. (A) Relapse-free survival (RFS) (49% [95% CI: 44-53%], 42% [95% CI: 40-45%] or 39% [95% CI: 36-43%], P=0.007), (B) non-relapse mortality (NRM) (23% [95% CI: 19-27%], 24% [95% CI: 22-26%], 20% [95% CI: 18-23%], P=0.01), (C) relapse (28% [95% CI: 24-32%], 32% [95% CI: 30-34%], 39% [95% CI: 36-42%], P<0.001). Overall survival and relapse-free survival were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method, with reverse KM for determination of median follow-up. Univariable comparisons were performed using the log-rank test. Outcomes with competing risks were assessed using cumulative incidence curves and univariable comparisons for these outcomes were performed using the Gray test. For each of relapse, acute GvHD, and chronic GvHD, death without the event of interest was a competing event, as was second transplantation.
