Article Synopsis
  • * A study using data from the Japanese nationwide transplantation registry assessed 857 patients with relapsed or refractory non-Hodgkin lymphoma, with 169 receiving PTCY-haplo and 688 receiving uCBT, revealing no significant differences in overall survival, progression-free survival, or graft-versus-host disease-free/relapse-free survival between the two groups.

Article Synopsis
  • This study compares two chemotherapy regimens used in patients undergoing umbilical cord blood transplantation: Flu/Mel/Bu2 (lower busulfan dose) and Flu/Mel/Bu4 (higher busulfan dose).
  • Researchers analyzed data from 87 adult patients to see if there were differences in nonrelapse mortality, relapse rates, progression-free survival, and overall survival between the two regimens.
  • The results showed no significant differences in outcomes, suggesting that the Flu/Mel/Bu2 regimen is a safe and effective option, particularly for older patients.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the survival outcomes of patients receiving umbilical cord blood transplants (UCBT) across different racial and ethnic groups, focusing on Black, Latinx, White, and Asian patients, as previous research indicated disparities in survival rates.
  • - A retrospective analysis of data from the Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research (CIBMTR) included 983 single and 1529 double UCBT recipients, measuring outcomes like overall survival (OS), disease-free survival, and transplant-related mortality over two years.
  • - Results showed that while overall survival rates varied by race/ethnicity, with Latinx patients having significantly lower OS compared to Blacks, no significant differences were observed in child patients,

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the prognosis of unrelated umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) using low-dose anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG) in children diagnosed with severe aplastic anemia (SAA).

Methods: This retrospective case series study was conducted involving pediatric SAA patients treated at the Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2020 to February 2023. All patients underwent a reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) regimen alongside low-dose ATG.

To evaluated the clinical efficacy of a reduced-intensity preconditioning regimen for single non-blood-related umbilical cord blood transplantation (sUCBT) in the treatment of severe aplastic anemia (SAA) . The clinical data of 63 patients with SAA who underwent sUCBT from January 2021 to July 2023 at the Department of Hematology of the First Affiliated Hospital of USTC were retrospectively analyzed. Fifty-two patients received total body irradiation/total bone marrow irradiation (TMI) combined with fludarabine or a cyclophosphamide- conditioning regimen (non-rATG group) , while 11 patients received rabbit anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin (rATG) combined with TMI, fludarabine, or the cyclophosphamide-conditioning regimen (rATG group) .
