Complications in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) cause serious morbidity and mortality. Predicting patients at risk in advance and changing the symptomatic care and/or preparation regimen according to this risk assessment have been emphasized recently. Several single-nucleotide polymorphisms have been studied, and some were found to be responsible for early complications. Glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) is an enzyme involved in the detoxification process that reduces oxidative stress by reducing the number of free oxygen radicals.
