La aloinmunización es una respuesta biológica frente a la exposición de antígenos no propios. La gestación, las transfusiones de hemocomponentes, los trasplantes de órganos sólidos y células hematopoyéticas, así como el consumo de drogas intravenosas exponen a las pacientes al desarrollo de aloanticuerpos antieritrocitarios. El hallazgo de los mismos debe cumplir con las instancias diagnósticas para identificar la probabilidad de estar asociados a enfermedad hemolítica feto neonatal (EHFN) y su oportuna derivación a policlínica de alto riesgo obstétrico (ARO) para su correcto seguimiento. Es fundamental que sean los laboratorios de inmunohematología de los servicios de hemoterapia y medicina transfusional los encargados de los estudios diagnósticos de aloinmunización eritrocitaria (1) . En este sentido hemos elaborado esta guía con el objetivo de protocolizar de manera multidisciplinaria el manejo de las embarazadas aloinmunizadas y sus recién nacidos.

Introduction: 10-15% of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) patients fail to achieve complete response (CR) after R-CHOP, and are considered primary refractory. There is limited transplant data in this population.
Objetive: to evaluate the outcomes of primary refractory DLBCL patients transplanted at our center.
Results: we evaluated 34 R/R patients treated with R-CHOP as first line. After second line, 30.4% of primary refractory/early relapse achieved CR, and 88.2% did so after ASCT. Median follow-up: 56.1 months, median OS was not reached; the estimated 5-year OS was 61.7%. Median OS of late relapse (Group 1) was not reached, and was 52 months for primary refractory/early relapse (Group 2) (p=0.023). The 5-year OS was 87.5% in Group 1 vs 49% in Group 2 (p=0.023).
Conclusions: Primary refractory and early relapsed DLBCL undergoing second-line therapy and ASCT have worse OS compared to late relapse. However, 49% of primary refractory patients who proceeded to ASCT had prolonged survival, which supports the role of ASCT in this population.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
