Treatment of Relapse after Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation with Venetoclax, Hypomethylating Agents and DLI - a Retrospective Multi…
2019
Introduction: The most common cause of treatment failure after allogeneic hematopoetic stem cell transplantation (aHSCT) is relapse. The combination of venetoclax and the hypomethylating agents (HMA) azacitidine (AZA) or decitabine (DAC) have shown promising efficacy in elderly patients with AML. We here present clinical data on 32 patients, who were treated with an HMA/venetoclax combination therapy (HMAClax) for relapse of a myeloid malignancy after aHSCT, collected retrospectively from 11 German centers. Results: Sixteen patients (50%) were male, median age was 54 years (30.8-71.5). Diagnoses at aHSCT were 25 AML (17 primary, 8 emerging from MDS, CMML or OMF), 5 MDS, 1 CMML and one atypi…
Applying extracellular vesicles based therapeutics in clinical trials - an ISEV position paper.
2015
Extracellular vesicles (EVs), such as exosomes and microvesicles, are released by different cell types and participate in physiological and pathophysiological processes. EVs mediate intercellular communication as cell-derived extracellular signalling organelles that transmit specific information from their cell of origin to their target cells. As a result of these properties, EVs of defined cell types may serve as novel tools for various therapeutic approaches, including (a) anti-tumour therapy, (b) pathogen vaccination, (c) immune-modulatory and regenerative therapies and (d) drug delivery. The translation of EVs into clinical therapies requires the categorization of EV-based therapeutics …
