Hi Jody,

I don't really know the answer to that but it would make sense that it would work just as well in AA where ATG has failed and there is no matching donor for child.

I think that's why it is so important to find out what you can from the different BMT centers on what protocols they use so you can make informed choice on where to go. You really want the least toxic, most effect protocol with good outcomes. Especially with GVHD. It saddens me to read about those who have successful BMTs but end up major GVHD.
