Abstract

Although the usage of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) as therapy for Graft versus Host Disease (GvHD) is constantly increasing, studies on MSC efficacy have been scarcely corroborated by biological analysis of patient response to cell infusion. We report the immunological monitoring of 9 patients with steroid-refractory GvHD, receiving multiple doses of MSCs. GvHD presented as acute in 5 cases and chronic in 4 cases. After MSC therapy, 2 patients showed complete response (CR), 4 patients showed partial response (PR) whereas 3 patients did not respond (NR) to MSC infusion.
