According to bibliography, G-CSF administration on day -1, 8 or during febrile neutropenia is not relevant with the progression of the disease. In contrast, G-CSF administration reduces TRM and can accelerate ANC recovery. As a result, we decided to administer G-CSF from day 15 (from the...

We presented a retospective analysis of BEAM vs BuCYVP16 in HL. BEAM conditioning before AHSCT resulted in a statistically significant  improved PFS and OS and lower relapse when compared with BUCYVP16.  Patients with shorter remission time from diagnosis and in non-CR at  time of AHSCT benefited most from...

When, Where, and How to use FLT3 inhibitors? What is their value? What are the open questions. Presenter:Prof.Spyridonidis Participants: Dr Liga, Dr Spyridis, Dr Lekka, Dr Katsaouni

We discussed an excellent review on mechanisms of relapse and its  treatment. - Major mechanisms of relapse include HLA loss, HLA down-regulation, and  expression of coinhibitory ligands. - Combination of donor lymphocyte infusion with immunomodulating agents and tyrosine kinase inhibitors may enhance the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect. - Immune checkpoint inhibitors can induce a...

We discussed 2 interesting papers for mechanisms of relapse post allogeneic HSCT which can be either HLA-loss, HLA-down regulation or immune escape. Presenter: Prof.Spyridonidis Participants: Dr Liga, Dr Spyridis, Dr Lekka, Dr Katsaouni

An update on CMV was presented. We discussed the open access slides of the ECIL 7 consensus on CMV. In addition we discussed the recently change of the LAb which performs CMV monitoring and the new reporting (from copies/ml to IU/ml). We discussed...

We discussed the REV infections in HSCT recipients. Presenter: Prof. Marangos Participants: Prof. Spyridonidis, Dr Liga, Dr Spyridis, Dr Lekka, Dr Katsaouni

We presented a study that showed that NGS-based MRD is widely  applicable to AML patients, is highly predictive of relapse and  survival, and may help refine transplantation and posttransplantation  management in AML patients.
