Stem Cell Transplantation As A Dynamical System: Are Clinical Outcomes Deterministic? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Outcomes in stem cell transplantation (SCT) are modeled using probability theory. However the clinical course following SCT appears to demonstrate many characteristics of dynamical systems, especially when outcomes are considered in the context of immune

Cutaneous chronic graft-versus-host disease does not have the abnormal endothelial phenotype or vascular rarefaction characteristic of systemic sclerosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:The clinical and histologic appearance of fibrosis in cutaneous lesions in chronic graft-versus -host disease (c-GVHD) resembles the appearance of fibrosis in scleroderma (SSc).

Atopic Dermatitis-like Graft-versus-host Disease and Lichen Planus-like Graft-versus-host Disease: Alterations in Skin Barrier Function and Related Molecules

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2017
Background: Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Skin barrier disruption could induce thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) expression, and the expression of TSLP was increased in lesions of ...

MAGIC biomarkers predict long-term outcomes for steroid-resistant acute GVHD.

open access: yesBlood, 2018
Acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is treated with systemic corticosteroid immunosuppression. Clinical response after 1 week of therapy often guides further treatment decisions, but long-term outcomes vary widely among centers, and more accurate ...

Long-term outcome after a treosulfan-based conditioning regimen for patients with acute myeloid leukemia: A report from the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BACKGROUND: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) is a curative therapy for patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, post-HCT relapse and regimen-related toxicity remain significant barriers to long-term survival.

Phase 2 Study of Anti-Human Cytomegalovirus Monoclonal Antibodies for Prophylaxis in Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) can cause significant disease in immunocompromised patients, and treatment options are limited by toxicities. CSJ148 is a combination of two anti-HCMV human monoclonal antibodies (LJP538 and LJP539) that bind to and inhibit ...

Pathophysiology of GvHD and Other HSCT-Related Major Complications

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2017
For over 60 years, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has been the major curative therapy for several hematological and genetic disorders, but its efficacy is limited by the secondary disease called graft versus host disease (GvHD).

Rare cells predict GVHD [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2012
Although natural killer (NK) T cells are present in about 1 in a 1000 T cells contained in hematopoietic cell transplants used for treatment of leukemia and lymphoma, their number is the dominant predictor of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in transplant patients according to the paper by Chaidos et al in this issue of Blood ...
