Better Failure-Free Survival and Graft-versus-Host Disease-Free/Failure Free Survival with Fludarabine-Based Conditioning in Stem Cell Transplantation for Aplastic Anemia in Children.

CONCLUSION: This study reviewed SCT outcomes for pediatric AA with changes of transplant strategies over the last 25 years. The FFS and GFFS were higher in Flu-group than in Cy-group, especially in matched related transplantation. Graft failure including donor-type aplasia remains troublesome even with Flu-based conditioning. Further refinement of transplant strategies to ensure better quality-of-life should be pursued.
