ABSTRACT Background Pediatric patients with inherited or acquired bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) often require an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) to cure the hematological manifestations. Amongst these, those without a matched sibling donor (MSD), are at increased risk for graft failure and are known to tolerate graft‐versus ...

Human cytomegalovirus infection is common in normal prostate epithelium, prostate tumor tissue, and prostate cancer cell lines. CMV promotes cell survival, proliferation, and androgen receptor signaling. Anti‐CMV pharmaceutical compounds in clinical use inhibited cell expansion in prostate cancer models in vitro and in vivo, motivating investigation ...

The Changing Impact of Human Cytomegalovirus Serology and Infection on Patient Outcome After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: An Italian Prospective Multicenter Survey in the Era of Letermovir Prophylaxis [PDF]
Background: In the letermovir primary prophylaxis (LET-PP) era, the epidemiology of human cytomegalovirus infection (HCMV-i) in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (allo-HSCT) recipients has changed.

The 100‐day non‐relapse mortality after single‐unit cord blood transplantation significantly declined from 19.6% (2003–2007) to 9.5% (2018–2022), while the 3‐year overall survival improved from 38.8% to 54.4%. Haematopoietic recovery rates improved steadily, with neutrophil engraftment reaching 89.6% and platelet engraftment 78.0% in the most recent ...
