The development of a graft-versus-host reaction after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important determinant of the transplant outcome. A better understanding and improved management of the graft-versus-host reaction should allow improved prevention and treatment of graft-versus-host disease and the development of new strategies to enhance a graft-versus-leukemia effect and to decrease the incidence of leukemic relapse after transplantation.

Shared Local Oncology Care After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation: A Randomized Clinical Trial.
JAMA Oncol
January 2025
Division of Hematologic Malignancies, Medical Oncology, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Boston, Massachusetts.
Importance: Although sharing care with local oncologists after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) has been proposed for patients living far from HCT centers, it is not known whether a shared strategy is safe or improves patient quality of life (QOL).
Objective: To determine the efficacy and safety of sharing follow-up care after HCT between the HCT specialty center and local oncologists.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This was a multicenter collaborative randomized clinical trial of patients undergoing HCT at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI)-a high volume HCT center in Boston (Massachusetts)-and 8 local oncology practices.

Despite novel prophylactic regimens, chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) remains a challenging complication after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Chronic GVHD can affect multiple organs and reduces quality of life, and treatment can cause serious side effects. In the last ten years, the drugs ibrutinib, ruxolitinib, belumosudil and axatilimab were FDA-approved for cGVHD.

Myelodysplastic syndromes/neoplasms (MDS) are heterogeneous stem cell malignancies characterized by poor prognosis and no curative therapies outside of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Despite some recent approvals by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA), (e.g.

Peripheral nerves promote mouse bone marrow regeneration by activating b2 and b3 adrenergic receptor signaling, raising the possibility that non-selective b blockers could inhibit engraftment after hematopoietic cell transplants (HCTs). We observed no effect of b blockers on steady-state mouse hematopoiesis. However, mice treated with a non-selective b blocker (carvedilol), but not a b1-selective inhibitor (metoprolol), exhibited impaired hematopoietic regeneration after syngeneic or allogeneic HCTs.
