Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ALOSCT) is curative for several hematological diseases. Unrelated donors and cord blood cells are valid options but haploidentical (HAPLO) have been considered the main source of in countries, partly due to easy access low cost process. Unfortunately, some patients antibodies against HLA epitopes from family (donor-specific [DSA]) which associated with engraftment failure lethality. A few strategies exist reduce or eliminate that bind these receptors. In...

Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a curative treatment for several hematological diseases. Prospective and retrospective studies have associated myeloablative conditioning regimens with increased non-relapse mortality less intense disease relapse, leading to similar overall survival rates.

Allogeneic transplantation (HSCT) is a curative option for several hematological diseases. Our center has privileged the use of identical family donors (IFD) or haploidentical (HD) donors. However, chances finding may be challenging in small families unsuitable In these cases, there possibility obtaining hematopoietic precursors from unrelated (URD) with complete almost HLA compatibility. this work analyzes results historical cohort patients allogeneic our institution. retrospective analysis...
