EBMT 2016 | Strategies to reduce graft-versus-host disease (GvHD)
At the 2016 Annual Meeting of the European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation, held in Valencia, Spain, Miguel Perales, MD, from Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, discusses strategies to reduce graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), highlighting ex vivo T-cell depletion.
