2020 Pediatric Grand Rounds | Progress Towards Safe, Curative Treatment of Blood and Immune Diseases; Learnings from the Development of Novel Conditioning Regimens for Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation

Duarte, CA US
November 5, 2020

Hematopoietic cell transplantation has been historically a niche field with treatments that are only provided to the sickest of patients that lack alternative treatments; however this is likely to change with the development of improved conditioning regimens, which is important to recognize and consider. Although hematopoietic cell treatments exist for many blood and immune diseases, not many patients or practitioners know about the best current treatments or their limitations.  Moreover, many people do not know about the upcoming therapies that are in development, which are likely to become available for patients in the future.

Target Audience

Pediatric Hematology/Oncology/Stem Cell Transplant Physicians, Advance Practice Practitioners, staff and research team.

Learning Objectives

  • Examine opportunities and current limitations of hematopoietic cell transplantation.
  • Identify opportunities for non-genotoxic conditioning to improve hematopoietic cell transplantation.
  • Discuss clinical non-genotoxic conditioning therapies in development at Stanford and elsewhere.
  • Demonstrate opportunities for use of hematopoietic cell transplantation outside current practice areas.
