Multidisciplinary Management of Morbidities Associated with Chronic Graft-Versus-Host Disease.

Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) represents a common long-term complication after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). It imposes a significant morbidity burden and is the leading cause of non-relapse mortality among long-term HSCT survivors. cGVHD can manifest in nearly any organ, severely affecting the quality of life of a transplant survivor.

Efficacy and safety of outpatient fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab based allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation in adults with severe aplastic anemia.

The age effect in severe aplastic anemia (SAA) following allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) favors the use of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) regimens in older adults. We implemented a non-myeloablative regimen consisting of fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituximab (FCR) to improve HCT outcomes in SAA. Patients who underwent first HCT for SAA utilizing an FCR regimen between January 2016 and May 2022 were included.

Reduction in the Prevalence of Thrombotic Events in Sickle Cell Disease after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Transplantation.

Thrombosis is a recognized complication in sickle cell disease (SCD). Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains the sole curative option for patients with severe SCD phenotypes. Data describing the effects of allo-HCT on recurrent thrombotic events (venous and arterial events) are limited, however.
