The treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated with a dismal prognosis. The allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is frequently performed as salvage therapy. Reduced intensity conditioning protocols have been developed with the aim of reducing the leukemia burden without increasing their toxicity.

Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia is a rare, inherited bone marrow failure syndrome. Allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is currently the only curative treatment. In this retrospective study, we analysed 66 patients with allo-HSCT, reported in the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) registry.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines the blood-related characteristics and overall prognosis of 127 patients with telomere biology disorders (TBD) who were diagnosed after age 15, highlighting a lack of data on this topic.
  • At diagnosis, significant haematological issues were present in nearly 76% of patients, with bone marrow failure (BMF) being the most common, affecting 46.5% of the cases, while some patients also developed additional complications over time.
  • The findings suggest that BMF patients tend to be younger and have a better survival rate compared to those with higher-risk blood cancers, indicating TBD as a complex multi-organ disease needing further research on its evolutionary nature and outcomes.

Autologous(auto-) and allogeneic(allo-) hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) are key treatments for relapsed/refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), although their roles are challenged by CAR-T-cells and other immunotherapies. We examined the transplantation trends and outcomes for DLBCL patients undergoing auto-/allo-HSCT between 1990 and 2021 reported to EBMT. Over this period, 41,148 patients underwent auto-HSCT, peaking at 1911 cases in 2016, while allo-HSCT saw a maximum of 294 cases in 2018.
