Artem Oganesyan, Resident Physician at Jefferson Abington Hospital, shared a post on LinkedIn about a paper he co-authored with colleagues, published in JNCI:
“In our recent analysis, survivors of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) with clonal hematopoiesis had a higher risk of subsequent development of non-myeloid malignancies and worse survival outcomes.
These findings advance our knowledge base regarding the development of secondary malignancies and clonal hematopoiesis in general. Clonal hematopoiesis may soon become a biomarker for risk stratification among HCT survivors.
Special thanks to Dr. Saro Armenian for leading this amazing project.”
