Single UM171‐expanded cord blood transplant can cure severe idiopathic aplastic anemia in absence of suitable donors
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Haplo‐identical donors have been increasingly used as an alternative source of stem cells in patients with severe aplastic anemia in need of an allogeneic transplantation but lack a matched donor. Single cord blood (CB) transplant also offers a curative option for this disease, but few adult patients have been reported due to low number of progenitor cells leading to prolonged cytopenias and a high risk of infections. CB stem cell expansion may theoretically solve these pitfalls but has not been used previously in non‐malignant diseases, likely due to fear of graft rejection and lack of availability of expanded CBs outside clinical trials. We report the first case of an adult patient with severe aplastic anemia who was successfully transplanted with a UM171‐expanded CB graft. After a conditioning of rabbit antithymocyte globulin, fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and total body irradiation, a UM171 expanded graft of 3.29 × 10 6 CD34 + cells/kg (a 51‐fold increase) was infused. Full donor chimerism was observed on day + 14, with neutrophil and platelet engraftment on days + 23 and + 27. There was no severe infection or graft‐vs‐host disease. UM171‐expanded grafts offer a valuable option for patients with aplastic anemia in need of transplantation but have no suitable donor.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
