EBMT China’s Voice | Professor Chunfu Li ‘s Team: Relationship between Immune Reconstitution, Graft-versus-Host Disease, and Viral Infections in Patients with Beta-Thalassemia Major Treated with Different Sources of Stem Cell Transplantation

EBMT China’s Voice | Professor Chunfu Li ‘s Team: Relationship between Immune Reconstitution, Graft-versus-Host Disease, and Viral Infections in Patients with Beta-Thalassemia Major Treated with Different Sources of Stem Cell Transplantation

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the classical treatment for curing beta-thalassemia major. With the continuous maturity of HSCT technology and supportive therapy over the past two decades, the choice of HSCT methods has expanded from classical matched sibling donor transplantation to matched unrelated donor transplantation and haploidentical transplantation. The commonly used stem cell types have also gradually transitioned from bone marrow hematopoietic stem cells to mobilized peripheral blood stem cells. Additionally, cord blood stem cells from related or unrelated donors have been widely used. From April 14th to 17th, 2024, the 50th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) was held in Glasgow, United Kingdom. The conference focused on the latest advances in stem cell transplantation and cell therapy, driving towards better clinical outcomes for patients with hematological diseases and hematologic malignancies. At the meeting, Professor Chunfu Li from the Southern Chunfu (Pediatric) Hematology Research Institute, High-performance Medicine (Hematology) Guangdong Research Center, reported a clinical study comparing immune reconstitution, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and viral infections in patients with beta-thalassemia major treated with stem cell transplantation from different sources. The following is a compiled summary of the content for readers' enjoyment.

Professor Zhongxing Jiang: Focusing on the diagnosis and treatment of chronic disease-related anemia to improve patient quality of life | The 19th National Conference on Red Blood Cell Diseases (Anemia) by the Chinese Medical Association

Chronic disease-related anemia, as one of the most common types of anemia, is the most common type of anemia among hospitalized patients and elderly individuals. Chronic disease-related anemia is usually accompanied by underlying diseases, with complex causes and diverse symptoms, distributed across multiple departments. Clinical doctors should pay sufficient attention to it in order to achieve better treatment outcomes. At the recent 19th National Conference on Red Blood Cell Diseases (Anemia) hosted by the Chinese Medical Association, Professor Zhongxing Jiang from The First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University shared the progress and prospects of the diagnosis and treatment of chronic disease-related anemia with Oncology Frontier - Hematology Frontier.
EBMT China’s Voice | Professor Yue Lu: Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Using Non-Direct Related Donors vs. Direct Related Donors – Similarity in Efficacy and Safety

EBMT China’s Voice | Professor Yue Lu: Haploidentical Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Using Non-Direct Related Donors vs. Direct Related Donors – Similarity in Efficacy and Safety

In recent years, haploidentical donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation has gradually been developed in malignant hematologic tumors, greatly solving the problem of previous donor shortages. From April 14th to 17th, 2024, the 50th Annual Meeting of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) was held in Glasgow, the third-largest city in the UK. At this EBMT Annual Meeting, Professor Yue Lu from Lu Daopei Hospital reported on a latest clinical research result. The study confirmed that in haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, using non-direct related donors can be comparable to direct related donors in terms of efficacy and safety. This also provides further evidence to expand the range of selectable donors in clinical practice. Our journal invited Professor Yue Lu to share the important results and clinical significance of this study with colleagues.

Outcomes of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Refractory/Relapsed Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Patients with Failure of CAR-T Therapy

Outcomes of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in Refractory/Relapsed Diffuse Large B-cell Lymphoma Patients with Failure of CAR-T Therapy

In the challenging field of hematology, the search for effective treatments for relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (R/R DLBCL) after CAR-T therapy failure is crucial. Professor Professor Haiwen Huang from The First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University leads an innovative study exploring allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) as a promising alternative. This collaborative research not only offers new hope for R/R DLBCL patients but also showcases the pioneering spirit driving advancements in oncology.
