BPDCN is a rare and aggressive hematologic malignancy. In this initial report, we captured data from 36 patients across 12 countries—a meaningful start for a disease where every case matters.
Since then, the registry has more than doubled in size. New centers and additional countries have joined this growing international effort. Yet for rare malignancies like BPDCN, more is not optional—it is essential. Progress depends on collecting the most comprehensive, global dataset possible.
If you are a hematologist–oncologist, pediatric or adult, anywhere in the world, and you have managed or are managing a BPDCN case, we invite you to join this collaboration.
For rare diseases, collaboration is not an advantage. It is the only way forward.”
