This comprehensive slide library was developed by a group of clinicians that have been working together to create ongoing educational initiatives about CAR T therapy since 2017, and was most recently updated in 2023. The library covers several topics including: why CAR-T therapy, how CAR-T fits into the world of immuno-oncology, patient management, and institutional considerations. You have the option to download the full library, containing several modules, or you can download individual modules, as needed.

This webinar is designed to provide participants an introduction and overview of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Topics during the presentation include: historical overview of hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT); review of sources of hematopoietic stem cells utilized in HCT and their associated advantages and disadvantages; summary of the HCT process, including the evaluation of a potential patients, the execution of the HCT procedure itself and associated toxicities and complications; and list of important resources to aid healthcare professionals caring for HCT patients.

These guidelines were published in the March 2020 edition of the BBMT Journal.

This webinar will focus on recent research in the use of hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) and gene therapy as curative therapies for sickle cell disease (SCD), convening a panel of experts to explore patient eligibility, perceptions, and overcoming barriers to care. Many patients and providers alike are unfamiliar with HCT as a potential curative option for SCD patients, and there are many misperceptions as gene therapy gains more public attention. Demystifying transplant among SCD providers and elucidating inclusion and exclusion criteria for curative therapies can help physicians and families make informed treatment decisions. Encouraging discussion about HCT and gene therapy’s role in the treatment of SCD can help ensure that patients and providers can appropriately weigh their options, increasing access to curative care when appropriate.
