Description
Lisa J Asbroek and co-authors lay out a study plan in a 2026 protocol on late harms after childhood stem cell transplant for blood cancers. Survivors face high risks of sugar and fat illness, vessel harm, and faster aging, yet past counts swing widely and harms were rarely checked together in one group. Modifiable risks such as habits and body swelling also stay unclear.
Two Dutch survivor groups will be joined, one of 102 people treated before 2002 and one of about 120 treated in the two decades after, all seen at a late effects clinic. Checks will count how often each harm shows, how often they overlap, and which treatment, habit, and swelling factors track with them. Clear counts could sharpen lifelong follow up care.
