Abstract:Chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) is a long-term complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation associated with poor quality of life and increased morbidity and mortality. Currently, there are several approved treatments for patients who do not respond to steroids, such as ruxolitinib. Nevertheless, a significant proportion of patients fail second-line treatment, indicating the need for novel approaches. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been considered a potential treatment approa… Show more
