Scientific report 2024 of the Transplant Complications Working Party (TCWP)
Major achievements
During 2024, the TCWP finalised several important projects including ERS/EBMT guidelines for lung GVHD and best practice recommendations for Non-ICANS neurological complications after CAR-T therapy.
Several other important studies were also finalised in the form of publications, including the study on management of complications after CAR-T therapy as well as the Survey on patient engagement in hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and cellular therapy.
Furthermore, the TCWP conducted a successful educational meeting focusing on complications post CAR-T, in partnership with the PDWP, in Malaga in January 2025. The event followed the TCWP’s effective format of patient case discussion and sharing of practical skills. Patient advocates, nurses and physicians all participated, with significant audience engagement in the activities and very positive feedback.
Finally, significant work was also done on the updating of EBMT Registry data collection forms to improve the quality and speed of TCWP studies in the future.
