Description:
Today, more than 10,000 hematopoietic cell transplantations (HCTs) are performed yearly in the United States as treatment for more than 70 life threatening illnesses including cancers, genetic disorders, and other diseases. Also, given the shift toward cellular therapies in the field of HCT, the number of patients treated with these novel biologic agents is rapidly increasing.

Following the successful examples of the international symposia focusing on GVHD and relapse after HCT, this symposium will bring together experts and thought leaders from around the world in the fields of HCT, cellular therapies, and related medical subspecialties. Speakers will discuss mechanisms of toxicities and symptom burden after HCT and cellular therapies, current advances in the field, and best practices to both prevent and treat these toxicities and symptoms.

The target audience for this symposium includes physicians, researchers, fellows, advanced practice providers, nurses, and pharmacists who provide care for patients undergoing HCT and cellular therapies.

Call for Abstracts

The 2nd International Symposium on Biology, Prevention, and Treatment of Toxicities After Transplantation and Cellular Therapy invites the submission of abstracts. Abstracts for the poster session will be selected on the basis of scientific merit and content quality. Abstract submission is open to all, and we also highly encourage fellows, residents, pharmacists, and advanced practice providers to submit relevant abstracts in the area of biology, prevention, and treatment of toxicities after transplantation and cellular therapy. In addition, abstracts related to trials and/or clinical research in progress will be accepted. Top awarded abstracts will receive a travel grant tied to attending this symposium.
