Seventh International Bone Marrow Failure Scientific Symposium
*All content now available On Demand*
Symposium Information and Registration
An Intensive Three-Day Virtual Conference Convening International Experts at the Forefront of Research and Treatment of Bone Marrow Failure Disease. This symposium brought together physicians treating these diseases and laboratory researchers studying the immunology and cell biology of bone marrow failure disease to:
- Discuss current areas of controversy
- Share recent research results
- Propose specific recommendations for the highest priority directions for basic and clinical research needed to advance the field of research
Once thought of as distinct, aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) are now believed to be linked by similar pathophysiologic pathways.
With exciting new developments in the treatment of these diseases and new insights into the molecular pathogenesis of the diseases, AAMDSIF is coordinating this symposium to explore opportunities for collaborative research.
The symposium program has been designed to address the most up-to-date issues in each topic area and to encourage participant interaction. Each session includes presentations by experts in the field followed by open discussion.

BMT and Immunotherapies for Pediatric Leukemia: Current and Novel Treatments and Financial Implications
Sponsored jointly by the National Marrow Donor Program® / Be The Match® and the Aplastic Anemia and MDS International Foundation.
In this recorded webinar, you'll learn that bone marrow transplant (BMT) and immunotherapies continue to quickly evolve for pediatric leukemia, varying in the pathophysiology and management. For health professionals, knowledge of these treatment options and potential toxicities is necessary to manage and provide patients with safe and effective evidence-based care. When choosing these treatment options, families can face additional financial decisions and need assistance to manage the financial implications.
