Stem cell transplantation and gene therapy for telomere biology disorders: Historical perspective, current approaches, and emerging strategies.
Gentler transplant approaches and emerging gene therapies offer patients with telomere disorders new hope for safer, longer-lasting remissions.
This review covers advances in treating telomere biology disorders, including improved reduced-intensity transplant regimens and emerging gene therapies for telomere elongation. Long-term post-transplant surveillance remains essential due to progressive organ dysfunction.
