Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a key treatment for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Measurable residual disease (MRD) predicts post-transplant outcomes. This study evaluates the impact of pretransplant MRD status on outcomes in AML patients undergoing allo-HCT.

Background: Allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) is a potentially curative treatment for pediatric patients with hematologic malignancies. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-matched sibling donors (MSDs) are considered the optimal source for stem cell transplantation; however, up to 70% of patients lack an MSD. This disparity is particularly pronounced among racial and ethnic minorities, who face challenges in identifying matched unrelated donors (MUDs).

Primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) is a rare and aggressive subtype of plasma cell malignancy. Although hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT), including autologous HCT (auto-HCT) and allogeneic HCT (allo-HCT), is widely used, an optimal treatment strategy is undetermined. We retrospectively analyzed patients with pPCL who underwent HCT between 2006 and 2022 in Japan using Japanese registry data.

Glucocorticoid-refractory chronic graft-versus-host disease (glucocorticoid-refractory cGVHD) remains a major barrier to long-term survival and quality of life following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), affecting 30-70% to half of patients with chronic GVHD who fail corticosteroid therapy. In recent years, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved four agents - ibrutinib, ruxolitinib, belumosudil, and axatilimab - each targeting distinct immune and fibrotic pathways. This review systematically evaluates their mechanisms of action, efficacy across organ systems, and safety profiles while highlighting persistent limitations.

Given the dismal prognosis for patients with TP53-mutated acute myeloid leukemia (AML), the optimal donor for those undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) remains unclear. We retrospectively analyzed adult patients with TP53-mutated AML who underwent first allo-HCT in CR1 between 2010 and 2021. Outcomes were compared among using a haploidentical donor (Haplo), a matched sibling donor (MSD), and a 10/10 matched unrelated donor (MUD).
