Hematopoietic allogeneic Wind spinner stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is a curative option for patients with hematological malignancies.However, due to disparities in major and minor histocompatibility antigens between donor and recipient, severe inflammatory complications can occur, among which chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) can be life-threatening.A classical therapeutic approach to the prevention and treatment of cGVHD has been broad immunosuppression, but more recently adjuvant immunotherapies have been tested.This review summarizes and discusses immunomodulatory approaches with T cells, including chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and regulatory T cells, with natural killer (NK) cells and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs), and finally with mesenchymal stromal cells Sunscreen (MSC) and extracellular vesicles thereof.

Clinical studies and pre-clinical research results are presented likewise.
