Highlights from EBMT 2024: treating & managing GvHD & understanding the role of the gut microbiome

Graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) is a common complication following allogeneic stem cell transplantation (alloSCT), which is typically classified as acute or chronic. In this week's VJHemOnc podcast, we'll be sharing key highlights from the 50th Annual Meeting of the EBMT, drawing focus on the biology and treatment of GvHD. Tune in as experts Mohamad Mohty, MD, PhD, Saint-Antoine Hospital, Paris, France, Ernst Holler, MD, University Hospital Regensburg, Regensburg, Germany, and Florent Malard, MD, PhD, Saint-Antoine Hospital and Sorbonne University, Paris, France, provide insights into current and emerging treatment approaches for acute and chronic GvHD, discussing the advent of new therapies. Following this, you'll learn about the importance of the gut microbiome in the severity of GvHD and how this can be manipulated to improve patient outcomes.
