Abstract

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation [HSCT] is currently a generally accepted method of treating a significant number of oncological and non-malignant diseases. Every year the number of HSCs is increasing, and the list of pathologies that can be cured using this technique is also growing. Unfortunately, the probability of detecting an HLA-compatible related donor in the standard population does not exceed 25-30%. Despite the fact that the number of potential voluntary bone marrow donors included in international registries currently exceeds 9 million people, the probability of finding an HLA-identical unrelated donor for a patient belonging to the Caucasian race is 50-80%, while the time required for unrelated transplantation often exceeds 3-4 months [1]. To date, the level of early mortality in recipients of allogeneic HSCT is unacceptably high, which is associated with both the visceral toxicity of therapy [idiopathic pneumonitis, veno-occlusive liver disease] and with a variety of infections developing as a result of severe immunosuppression. In addition, allogeneic transplantation [primarily unrelated] is associated with a significant probability of developing a severe acute "graft-versus-host reaction" [oRTPH], which is the main cause of death of patients after HSCT.
