ABSTRACT
Background:
allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation [HSCT] is widely used to treat various hematological malignant and non-malignant diseases. The occurrence of complications following HSCTas graft versus host disease[GVHD], hepatic veno-occlusive disease [VOD], oral mucositis [OM], drug induced hepatic and renal adverse events- is highly variable and dependent on a multitude of host, donor, and treatment factors. Identifying important genetic variables will allow for better prediction of HSCTrelated outcomes, and in the process of identifiing these susceptibilities, that could help to develop targetedinterventions:
