[Haematopoietic stem cell donation from minor donor: Respecting laws, assessing fitness, delivering information and good care (SFGM-TC)]. / Don de cellules souches hématopoïétiques à partir d'un donneur mineur : cadre réglementaire, information, évaluation de l'aptitude au don et parcours (SFGM-TC).

Haematopoietic stem cell collection from paediatric donors is a common and life-saving practice, as evidenced by the fact that there is a growing annual number of cases of transplants from minor donors among SFGM-TC centers over the last decade. Still, medical use of human tissue from a healthy and underage donor requires proper regulations and medical management. The guidelines below aim at underlining the importance of pondering the legal, medical and ethical aspects of using stem cells from healthy paediatric donors and stress out the importance of obtaining informed consent at the time of assessing HLA compatibility. Combined medical and psychological assessments are required before the donation, as well as one month later and one year later to ensure of the child's physical and mental wellbeing. Bone marrow harvest under general anaesthetics remains the preferred method of collection for children. Peripheral blood stem cell collection should only be considered for children who will not require a central venous access for collection. We aim at offering guidelines centered on the healthy child donating stem cells and his/her wellbeing, and these should be regularly reviewed as medical practices evolve.

[The care process of patient receiving CAR T-cell therapy: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. / Le parcours de soins du patient dans le cadre des CAR T-cell : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

In Europe, two CAR T-cell products, tisagenlecleucel (Kymriah™) and axicabtagene ciloleucel (Yescarta™), were approved in 2018. While these treatments are available for use, allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation centers still need to set up a dedicated care process inspired by established procedures in the field. In order to determine necessary resources and actors, each step of the CAR T-cell care process must be planned in advance. This process, implemented by the center's coordinating nurse, should be able to be adapted to each center's needs. The purpose of this workshop is to provide the organizational basis for such a process so that each center wishing to set up CAR-T cell activity can do so effectively. After detailing the coordinating nurse's role, we explain each step of the care process and specify essential additional tests.

[Related donors follow-up: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. / Suivi des donneurs apparentés : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

Since 2010 there has been an exponential increase of the number of transplants performed from related donors. The development of haploidentical transplants increases the resort to related-donation, which presents two main advantages: a less important financial cost and a faster availability of the graft. Standards for mandatory accreditation exist, but the adherence to these recommendations is not optimal: currently, different practices regarding the organizational modalities of care, recruitment criteria, qualification and follow-up of related donors have been observed among French transplant centers. The Francophone Society of Marrow Transplant and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) has developed guidelines for the consent and the non-eligibility criteria for hematopoietic stem cell donors. A multidisciplinary group has devised a booklet as a medium to inform donors about hematopoietic cell donation and transplantation in a clear and accessible language. This paper provides recommendations on post-donation follow-up, taking into account both medical standards and organizational constraints of French centers. Some tools are proposed.

[Graft reinjection: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. / Réinjection du greffon : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

JACIE (Joint Accreditation Committee ISTC EBMT) regulations and standards impose a quality and safety requirement for graft reinjection by nurses. However, the standards do not provide a step-by-step graft reinjection procedure. Because of high medical team turnover, the opening of new transplant centers, and continual questions from colleagues trying to decipher the JACIE standards, the need for a specific procedure goes without saying. We collected graft reinjection procedures from each SFGM-TC center that participated in our survey, thus creating an inventory of the different steps that make up graft reinjection. In addition to reviewing the main regulatory texts and JACIE standards, we sought advice from medical and cellular therapy experts. We observed that most centers use a mix of practices and some unjustified practices. In some transplant units, it is still standard practice to defrost cell therapy products in the transplant unit. Caregivers are aware of the need for a rigorous application of the regulatory requirements and are willing to administer a procedure that provides specific steps for each stage of the process. In this workshop, we questioned each stage of the graft reinjection procedure, which helped us define clear methods of implementation. In the form of a checklist, we offer bone marrow and stem cell transplant units a step-by-step procedure.

[Information booklet for related hematopoietic stem cell donors: Guidelines from the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC)]. / Un support d'information pour les donneurs apparentés de cellules souches hématopoïétiques : recommandations de la Société francophone de greffe de moelle et de thérapie cellulaire (SFGM-TC).

Providing information to living donors is first and foremost a legal obligation as well as an ethical one, not to mention necessary to health care provision. It's been shown that quality of information concerning the procedure's practical aspects, scheduling of clinical tests and examinations, withdrawing stem cells for the donation, post-donation symptoms, and support provided by healthcare teams, directly impacts the donor's quality of experience. Taking this into consideration our group decided it was essential to create an informational support for donors in the form of a booklet to be provided in different hematopoietic stem cell transplant centers across France. In September 2016 in Lille, France, the Francophone Society of Bone Marrow Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (SFGM-TC) organized the 7th allergenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation clinical practices harmonization workshops. As part of these workshops, our group worked collectively to develop a basis of indispensable information to be included in the booklet and presented using clear and accessible language.
