Summary

Acquired Aplastic anemia is one of the most frequent reason of bone marrow failure in East (Pakistan).

* The first treatment option is Allogenic Bone Marrow transplantation which is an expansive treatment option and also require a full matched HLA identical donor, hence hardly 25% of our affected patients get opportunity for BMT.
* The second line treatment option caters a large chunk of patients (severe and non-severe AA) along with those who lack HLA identical donor.

Previously many protocols had been used in past for ATG+CsA Treatment, this treatment protocol especially addresses the two different regimens of ATG to study its efficacy, durability and long-term effects. Following doses would be used:

* CsA+ATG @ 10mg/kg for 3 days
* CsA+ATG @ 10mg/kg for 5 days

Conditions
