The success of transplant procedures in patients with beta-thalassemia major (β-thalassemia) goes hand-in-hand with improvements in disease knowledge, better supportive care, discoveries in immunogenetics, increase in stem cell sources, and enhancement of conditioning regimens. The aim of this scoping review was to report the evolution of conditioning regimes for β-thalassemia hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. We performed a systematic search for all relevant articles published before July 2021, using the following Medical Subject Headings: “bone marrow transplantation”, “stem cell transplantation”, “allogeneic”, “thalassemia”, “β-thalassemia”, and “thalassemia major”. The final analysis included 52 studies, published between 1988 and 2021, out of 3877 records. The most common conditioning regimen was a combination of busulfan and cyclophosphamide, with successive dose adjustments or remodulation based on patient characteristics. Pre-transplant treatments, reductions in cyclophosphamide dosage, or the adoption of novel agents such as treosulphan all improved overall survival and thalassemia-free survival in transplant-related mortality high-risk patients. Conditioning regimes were modulated for those without a suitable fully matched sibling or unrelated donor, with encouraging results. Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with haploidentical donors is currently available to virtually all patients with β-thalassemia. However, disparities in outcome are still present around the world. In developing and limited-resource countries, where most diagnoses are focused, transplants are not always available. Therefore, more efforts are needed to close this treatment gap.
