Biography
Leslie E. Lehmann, MD
Dr. Lehmann attended Harvard College and received her MD from Duke University Medical School, where, after finishing a pediatric residency, she spent a year as chief resident. She completed a pediatric hematology-oncology fellowship at DFCI/Children's Hospital Boston in 1996 and subsequently joined the faculty. In 1998, she became medical director of the Pediatric Transplant Unit at Children's Hospital and, in 2007, was appointed clinical director of the Pediatric Stem Cell Transplant Program.

Research
Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplants and Related Toxicity
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is a medically complex modality that can offer a chance of cure to children with both malignant and nonmalignant conditions. Although remarkable progress has been made in the field over the past few decades, the associated risks of acute mortality and chronic complications limit the applicability of HSCT. Our research focuses on both prevention and amelioration of these toxicities.
With respect to decreasing the acute complications of transplant, we have examined the role of defibrotide, an agent that is effective in treating patients with severe veno-occlusive disease of the liver, and explored how to best address the nutritional needs of our patients. We have also worked to characterize the chronic pulmonary conditions associated with allogeneic transplant in the pediatric setting and, in conjunction with our colleagues in dental medicine, described the oral manifestations of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We are now investigating novel therapeutic interventions for affected patients.
