  • Committed to providing every aspect of treatment and supportive care in a single, convenient location, Moffitt is an established leader in the field of bone marrow transplantation. (biojobs.com)
  • Different factors contribute to residual anemia during eculizumab treatment: underlying bone marrow dysfunction, residual intravascular hemolysis and the emergence of C3-mediated extravascular hemolysis. (frontiersin.org)
  • Indeed, we envision a new scenario of therapeutic complement inhibition, where proximal inhibitors (either anti-C3, anti-FD or anti-FB) may prove effective for the treatment of PNH, either in monotherapy or in combination with anti-C5 agents, eventually leading to drastic improvement of hematological response.

  • Hematological investigations and diagnostics including bone marrow testing and spinal taps: These tests are performed pain-free with the help of the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center's Dream Service (pediatric service that helps children undergo treatment and testing under sedation).

  • How I counted: over 7 years Ukraine spent more than UAH 1 billion on treatment abroad, of which 60% was funding for bone marrow transplantation. (parentsguidecordblood.org)
  • In order for donor stem cells to grow in the patient's bone marrow, the patient's bone marrow cells have to be eliminated by a pre-treatment known as conditioning. (swisshealthmagazine.ch)
  • Other promising developments to improve outcomes in allo-SCT include conditioning with radiolabelled anti-CD66, as well as salvage therapy with daratumumab 8 or newer imids which suggest that allo-SCT has the potential to enhance the efficacy of other therapies that may have been less effective pre-transplantation.

  • The pediatric BMT service offers pre-transplant care, such as transplant-type decision-making and multidisciplinary testing to prepare the donor and the patient for the procedure. (tasmc.org.il)
  • It is these donor cells that, once infused into the patient, will populate the bone marrow and rebuild the immune system, which is called the graft-versus-disease effect ," highlights this specialist. (mdanderson.es)
  • The immune system cells come from the bone marrow where they grow from special cells called stem cells. (zhihuiya.com)
  • The efficacy of allo-SCT in MM relies on the transplanted immune system having an anti-tumour effect on the host bone marrow, the so-called graft-versus-myeloma (GvM) effect. (medicalupdateonline.com)
