Abel GA, et al. – Research presented at the 64th American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting and Exposition showed a shared care approach after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation did not compromise non-relapse mortality and may be associated with improved quality of life.

Maakaron JE, et al.  – Research published in Bone Marrow Transplantation suggests that age alone should not be a deciding factor when determining candidacy for transplant in adult patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and transplant should be considered a standard of care option for patients of all ages with AML in first complete remission. This study showed that all age groups reached comparable 3-year overall survival, and differences between younger and older groups were better explained by comorbidities and other factors than age.
