Preconditioning Absolute Lymphocyte Count and Transplantation Outcomes in Matched Related Donor Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation Recipients with Reduced-Intensity Conditioning and Antithymocyte Globulin Treatment

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) is a potentially curative treatment option for several types of hematologic malignancies, including high-risk or relapsed acute leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), and some benign hematological diseases, such as severe aplastic anemia. Despite the significant progress in transplant technology and patient care that has been made since the 1960s, there are still obstacles that hinder achieving successful outcomes after allo-HSCT.
