Post-transplant relapse remains the chief therapeutic challenge in Ph-negative B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph

B-ALL). This retrospective study evaluated whether short-course blinatumomab for measurable resident disease (MRD) eradication could improve transplant outcomes. We compared 23 patients receiving pre-transplant short-course blinatumomab (2-week) for MRD eradication with 46 chemotherapy-only controls. All achieved MRD-negative before allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT). Only two patients developed grade 2 cytokine release syndrome with blinatumomab. The neutrophil and platelet engraftment times were similar between the two groups. The blinatumomab cohort had a significantly lower 18-month cumulative incidence (CI) of relapse (

81.9%; HR 0.20, 95% CI 0.03-1.71), and a trend toward better GVHD-free and relapse-free survival (GRFS) (74.71%

63.71%; HR 0.64, 95% CI 0.23-1.78). Multivariate analysis confirmed blinatumomab as an independent favorable factor for RFS. In conclusion, short-course blinatumomab as a bridge-to-transplantation could reduce the risk of relapse and improve survival for Ph
