Fanconi Anemia Outcomes

The survival graphs below illustrate outcomes of unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplants (bone marrow, PBSC, or cord blood — BMT) facilitated by the National Marrow Donor Program (NMDP) for both adult and pediatric patients.

NMDP outcomes for adult and pediatric patients with severe aplastic anemia (SAA)

The majority of adult (> 18 years of age) patients transplanted for SAA have failed prior immunosuppressive therapy. Optimal and safer conditioning regimens for unrelated donor hematopoietic cell transplantation for patients with severe aplastic anemia are being studied through the Blood and Marrow Transplant Clinical Trials Network (BMT CTN) Protocol 0301.
