Myeloablative conditioning is well tolerated by older patients receiving T-cell-depleted grafts
Older age has been linked to increased transplant-related mortality from graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Depletion of T cells from stem cell grafts seems to protect from complications of GvHD particularly in...

Reduced-intensity conditioning for severe aplasia using fludarabine and CY followed by infusion of ex vivo T-cell-depleted grafts leads to excellent engraftment and absence of GVHD
We studied the outcome of individuals with aplastic anaemia (AA) who received reduced-intensity conditioning followed by the infusion of stem cell grafts that had been T-cell depleted ex vivo with alemtuzumab. Co...
