Overview of the unmet needs in GvHD, and an introduction to ECP therapy
Do you know... Which of the following is not true regarding the rationale for use of ECP in GvHD?
Despite the use of prophylactic measures, graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) remains an ongoing complication for patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
In the first chapter of this e-learning module, we describe the ongoing unmet needs and challenges in the management of both acute and chronic GvHD, provide an overview of the proposed mechanism of action of extracorporeal photopheresis (ECP) therapy, and explain the rationale for its use in the treatment of GvHD.

The second chapter of this e-learning module will be published shortly.
