Recent article from @TheEBMT led by Pedro Prata @Haematologica looks at #HCT after clonal evolution in #SAA. Overall 5 year survival 64% in a young population. Ongoing need to develop optimal surveillance/intervention to decrease this complication haematologica.org/article/view/1…
Congrats to FRENVEX for their study on azacitadine in #VEXAS led by @thibault_comont in @BloodJournal. Confirmed inflammatory & hematologic responses in >50%. Molecular responses in >2/3rds! Toxicity common especially in first 3 cycles. ashpublications.org/blood/article/… @mekinian2
Excited to share our @nih_nhlbi group’s latest work, led by post-doc Hiroki Mizumaki, looking at the role of the adaptive and innate immune system in #VEXAS in @NatureComms. nature.com/articles/s4146… @bhavishap29 @fergutierrezro1 @NealSYoung1
Aplastic Anemia panel from the 2025 AAMDSIF Bone Marrow Failure Summit, featuring Monderator Emma Groarke, with Bhavisha Patel, Pedro Prata, Zoe McQuilten, and Tapan Kadia. #AplasticAnemia #bonemarrowfailure
Former @nih_nhlbi fellow @1JibranDurrani (now @UMiamiHealth) presenting our group’s work on complement mediated immune activation in #SAA with HLA alloimmunisation. #ASH24 @ASH_hematology @bhavishap29
Great talk from my friend and colleague @Yael_Kusne also big shout out to @fergutierrezro1 for chairing a great session!! 🙌🏻 #CHIP #BMF #germlinepredisposition #ASH2024
The first 508. Bone marrow failure- acquired Session is about to start! @bhavishap29 and Antonio Risitano are ready to moderate this first Immune aplastic anemia session at #ASH24. Come! #BMFsm @ASH_hematology
Amazing talk from our @nih_nhlbi fellow @NickLeeMD presenting long-term results from our high-dose Danazol protocol for patients with #TBD. #ASH24 @ASH_hematology @NCICCR_MOS @NealSYoung1 @fergutierrezro1 @bhavishap29 @TeamTelomereInc
Check out my @nih_nhlbi colleague @bhavishap29 ‘s poster reporting our work in patient reported outcomes in #VEXAS. Patients reported high symptom burden. #ASH24 @ASH_hematology
Congrats to @FernandoCatto for his @ASH_hematology achievement award! 🥇 He presented our work on immunodeficiency in the @nih_nhlbi cohort of #TBDs, mostly adults with TERT/TERC mutations. A great way to finish the conference! #ASH24 @emmamgroarke @cedunbar80
So honored to receive the ASH-IPIG award at #ASH24🩸🧬 I will present our longitudinal #ClonalHematopoiesis data on Aplastic Anemia at the #BMFsm session tomorrow morning! Hope to see you there! @ASH_hematology @nih_nhlbi
Never too late to congratulate Jenna Fernandez and @MrinalPatnaik for the brilliant abstract on #VEXAS presented yesterday at the poster session! it’s been amazing to collaborate with this team on #VEXAS studies! @emmamgroarke @bhavishap29 #ASH24 @ASH_hematology
Very nice talk from @AustinKulasekar on #ClonalHematopoiesis from the @TheEBMT RACE trial. @KingsCollegeNHS #ASH24 @ASH_hematology
Amazing talk from @fergutierrezro1 showing our lab’s work on #ClonalHematopoiesis over 10+ years after IST. We saw long-term clonal persistence of ASXL1 and PIGA. #ASH24 @ASH_hematology @bhavishap29 @NealSYoung1 @nih_nhlbi
Final results of the @TheEBMT RACE study randomizing hATG/CSA/EPAG v IST alone. Promising long-term data! @ASH_hematology #ASH24 #BMFsm
Zoe McQuilten from @MonashUni presenting the final results of the Diaamond-AVA-first looking at hATG, CSA, and avatromboag. Similar results to eltrombopag seen. #ASH24 @ASH_hematology
Our #ClonalHematopoiesis paper is finally featured in the latest @BloodJournal issue! A huge collaboration among #TBD experts @emmamgroarke @NealSYoung1 @SharonSavageMD @CarmemBonfim1 @TeamTelomereInc ashpublications.org/blood/article/… @nih_nhlbi #BMFsm #MDSsm
Exciting new study underway for immune BMF including AA, LGL and hypoMDS using ruxolitinib @nih_nhlbi led by my colleague @emmamgroarke

Another exciting @ASH_hematology meeting, networking, and reuniting with friends! #ASH24 @DrDavidJYoung @emmamgroarke @fergutierrezro1

A nice commentary in this issue of @BloodJournal for our paper looking at the role of #ClonalHematopoiesis in #TBD from @Chris_R_Reilly and @myllymaki_mikko - a somatic symphony; telomeres and CH! ashpublications.org/blood/article/… @fergutierrezro1 @SharonSavageMD
