1) The document summarizes findings from multiple studies comparing the use of bone marrow versus peripheral blood stem cells as the stem cell source for haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
2) Results showed no significant differences in rates of acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease, non-relapse mortality, overall survival, or progression-free survival between the two stem cell sources.
3) Peripheral blood stem cells were associated with similar hematologic recovery times but were easier to collect and transplant compared to bone marrow.
