Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Patients with aplastic anemia who meet the Camitta diagnostic criteria and are receiving ATG or ALG for the first time are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who have previously undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, who receive ATG/ALG only as part of transplant conditioning, or who are not receiving ATG/ALG will not be included and are unlikely to benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This prospective, single-center cohort will enroll 200 patients with aplastic anemia who are receiving ATG or ALG as their first immunosuppressive therapy. Investigators will systematically record and describe clinical adverse reactions during and after treatment, including timing, severity, and management. Patients who have had a prior hematopoietic stem cell transplant or who receive ATG/ALG only as transplant conditioning are excluded. The collected data are intended to provide a foundation for developing targeted strategies to prevent and treat treatment-related complications.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the findings could help clinicians recognize and manage ATG/ALG side effects more effectively, improving patient safety and outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: Adverse reactions to ATG and ALG have been described in prior reports, so this study builds on existing knowledge by collecting prospective, systematic data at a single center.
