Hematopoietic cell transplant in pediatric acute myeloid leukemia after similar upfront therapy; a comparison of conditioning regimens
The impact of conditioning regimen prior to hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) in pediatric AML-patients is not well studied. We retrospectively analyzed the impact of Busulfan–Cyclophosphamide (BuCy), Busulf...

Treosulfan-based conditioning regimens for allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation in children with non-malignant diseases
An increasing number of children with non-malignant diseases can be cured by allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Treosulfan (L-treitol-1,4-bis-methanesulfonate) is being used more frequent...

Outcome of invasive mechanical ventilation after pediatric allogeneic hematopoietic SCT: results from a prospective, multicenter registry
Exact data on prognosis of children receiving invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) after allogeneic hematopoietic SCT (HSCT) is lacking. We therefore started a prospective registry in four European university...

Co-infusion of ex vivo-expanded, parental MSCs prevents life-threatening acute GVHD, but does not reduce the risk of graft failure in pediatric patients undergoing allogeneic umbilical cord blood transplantation
When compared with BMT, umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT) is associated with a lower rate of engraftment and delayed hematological/immunological recovery. This leads to increased risk of TRM in the e...

Early lymphocyte recovery is an important determinant of outcome following allogeneic transplantation with CD34+ selected graft and limited T-cell addback
We evaluated the outcome of 29 patients (age 22–60 years), who received a CD34+selected related (n=16) or unrelated graft (n=13) with limited T-cell addback (TCAB) (median 5.9 × 104/kg) following full-intensity c...

Double T cell depletion of bone marrow using sequential positive and negative cell immunoaffinity or CD34+ cell selection followed by Campath-1M; effect on CD34+ cells and progenitor cell recoveries
An advantage of CD34+ cell selection over antibody purging is that a component allograft is produced comprising a stem cell enriched and an unadsorbed fraction, the latter containing T cells which may be used for...
