Extracorporeal Photopheresis for the Prevention of Acute GVHD in Patients Undergoing Standard Myeloablative Conditioning and Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is partly mediated by host antigen presenting cells (APCs) that activate donor T-cells. Extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) can modulate APC function and benefit some patients with GVHD. We report the results of a study using ECP administered prior to a standard myelo...
