Post‐Transplant Bendamustine as a Platform for Immune Modulation After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐transplant cyclophosphamide (PT‐CY) remains the standard of care for graft‐versus‐host disease (GvHD) prophylaxis in haploidentical hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT), yet relapse, delayed immune reconstitution, infections, and organ toxicity represent persistent and clinically meaningful limitations.

Determination of an unrelated donor pool size for human leukocyte antigen-matched platelets in Brazil

Revista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2016
Background: Successful transfusion of platelet refractory patients is a challenge. Many potential donors are needed to sustain human leukocyte antigen matched-platelet transfusion programs because of the different types of antigens and the constant needs

Longitudinal Changes in Transfusion Practice in Myelodysplastic Syndromes: A Population Data‐Linkage Study

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Real‐world data on transfusion needs of patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and the impacts of disease‐modifying therapies (DMTs) are sparse. In 2011, 5‐azacitidine became the first funded DMT for MDS and chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) patients in Australia and national patient blood management (PBM) guidelines ...

Platelet transfusion: basic aspects

Swiss Medical Weekly, 2013
Platelet transfusions have been shown to prevent major haemorrhage and improve survival in thrombocytopenic patients. Since then, advances in the preparation of platelet components, including the introduction of pathogen reduction techniques, have ...

Dose‐Adjusted Treatment With 7‐Day Venetoclax Plus Azacitidine or Decitabine in Patients With Acute Myeloid Leukaemia

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) in older or unfit patients is commonly treated with hypomethylating agents (HMA) plus venetoclax (VEN), but prolonged VEN exposure often causes substantial haematological toxicity. We retrospectively analysed 61 elderly AML patients treated with HMA + VEN for 7 (7d), 14 (14d) or > 14 days (> 14d) per cycle.

Safety of Lowering the Platelet Transfusion Threshold Before Central Venous Catheterisation in Patients With Haematological Diseases

European Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Central venous catheter (CVC) insertion is frequently required in patients with haematological diseases. Despite limited evidence, thrombocytopenia often prompts prophylactic platelet transfusion before catheterisation. Methods We conducted an observational before‐and‐after study including the first non‐tunnelled CVC insertion ...
