We retrospectively analyzed high-risk ALL patients in CR1 receiving total body irradiation based conditioning regimen with ATLG (n = 74) or PTCy (n = 73) for GVHD prophylaxis. The 3-year OS and LFS were similar in both groups: 65 and 60% in the ATLG group and 64 and 67% in the PTCy group (p = 0.9 and 0.

A total of 1120 adult patients who had undergone allo-HCT at our center between 2013 and 2020 were divided into training, first, and second validation cohorts. Objectifiable, patient-related factors impacting NRM in univariate and multivariate analyses were: serum albumin, serum creatinine, serum C-reactive protein (CRP), heart function (LVEF), lung function (VC, FEV1), and patient age.

Data comparing immune reconstitution (IR) between ATLG and PTCy is scarce. This retrospective study conducted at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf (UKE) compares PTCy (n=123) and ATLG (n=476) after myeloablative allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplant.

In this cross-sectional study, we retrospectively evaluated the files of 227 patients with myelofibrosis who underwent transplantation between 1994 and 2015 for relapse later than 5 years after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT). A total of 94 patients who were alive and in remission at 5 years were identified with follow-up of at least 5 years (median, 9.15 years) after SCT.

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) currently is the only potentially curative option, although associated with treatment-related morbidity and mortality. Development of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens enabled transplant to be performed successfully in older patients.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFAllogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a curative treatment option for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS). Little is known about the prognostic impact of mutations, for example, in TP53 specifically after allo-HSCT. We here describe the prognostic impact of mutations in a panel of 19 genes analyzed by amplicon-based next-generation-sequencing in a uniformly treated patient cohort.
