Haploidentical bone marrow transplant with post-transplant cyclophosphamide plus thiotepa improves donor engraftment in patients with sickle cell anemia: results of an international learning collaborative
Sickle cell disease (SCD) has evolved from a life-threatening condition in early childhood, to a chronic disease in adults [1,2]. Improved supportive care [3], use of hydroxyurea therapy [4], and regular blood transfusion therapy for primary [5] and secondary [6] stroke prevention, have resulted in improved childhood clinical outcomes and survival. Approximately 99% of all children born in high resource countries with SCD are expected to live to adulthood [7,8]. The most feared complication in children with SCD is stroke [9].
