Outcomes from unrelated donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
BACKGROUND Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) offers a curative treatment option for management of a variety of hematologic malignancies. While sibling donors have been the gold standard for adult patients in need of an HCT, not all patients have a suitable family donor. The availability of unrelated volunteer donor registries and alternative stem cell sources has expanded the ...
متن کاملSupport of Unrelated Stem Cell Donor Searches by Donor Center-Initiated HLA Typing of Potentially Matching Donors
Large registries of potential unrelated stem cell donors have been established in order to enable stem cell transplantation for patients without HLA-identical related donors. Donor search is complicated by the fact that the stored HLA information of many registered donors is incomplete. We carried out a project that was aimed to improve chances of patients with ongoing donor searches to find an...
متن کاملComputer Algorithms in the Search for Unrelated Stem Cell Donors
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a medical procedure in the field of hematology and oncology, most often performed for patients with certain cancers of the blood or bone marrow. A lot of patients have no suitable HLA-matched donor within their family, so physicians must activate a "donor search process" by interacting with national and international donor registries who will se...
متن کاملAdoptive T-cell immunotherapy from third-party donors: characterization of donors and set up of a T-cell donor registry
Infection with and reactivation of human cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), and adenovirus (ADV) are frequent and severe complications in immunocompromised recipients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) or solid organ transplantation (SOT). These serious adverse events are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Donor lymphocyte infusions (DLIs) are o...
متن کاملDonor-derived mycosis fungoides following reduced intensity haematopoietic stem cell transplantation from a matched unrelated donor
A 46-year-old woman with a history of dasatinib-resistant chronic myeloid leukaemia, clonal evolution and monosomy 7 underwent reduced intensity conditioned in vivo T-cell-depleted allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from a matched unrelated donor. Following the transplantation, she developed recurrent cutaneous graft versus host disease (GvHD), which required treatment w...
