Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation for older patients with AML with active disease. A study from the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT)
Older adults with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) refractory to initial or reinduction chemotherapy have a dismal prognosis if they do not undergo hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HCT). However, data asse...

Long-term outcome of second allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT2) for primary graft failure in patients with acute leukemia in remission: A study on behalf of the Acute Leukemia Working Party of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation
Second transplantation (HSCT2) is a potential treatment for primary graft failure (pGF). We assessed the outcome of HSCT2, performed between 2000 and 2021, for pGF in 243 patients with acute leukemia. Median a...
