EBMT 2026 | Delayed platelet recovery in patients with myelofibrosis undergoing allogeneic transplantation

In this video, Patrizia Chiusolo, MD, PhD, Agostino Gemelli University Policlinic, Rome, Italy, briefly discusses the impact of delayed platelet recovery in patients with myelofibrosis undergoing allogeneic stem cell transplantation, noting higher rates of non-relapse mortality in patients with delayed engraftment. This interview took place at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the EBMT in Madrid, Spain.

Transcript

This paper was very important because we evaluated the engraftment of platelets at 100 days after transplant to a level of 50,000 platelets. We demonstrated that the reduction in the engraftment, the latency in engraftment, was associated with a higher rate of non-relapsed mortality in patients with delayed engraftment. Some factors are predictive of delay in platelet engraftment, and these are the kind of donor we use, the rate of fibrosis, the dose of CD34 cells that we use in these patients, and also a favorable outcome is the splenectomy, which makes the engraftment easier earlier at 100 days after the transplant...
