Autologous stem cell transplantation followed by a dose-reduced allograft induces high complete remission rate in multiple myeloma.
We evaluated toxicity, engraftment, chimerism, graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and response to a dose-reduced allograft after cytoreductive autografting in 17 patients with advanced stage II/III multiple myeloma (MM). After autografting with melphalan (200 mg/m2) the patients received after a median interval of 119 days (range 60-210) a dose-reduced regimen consisting of fludarabine (180 mg/m...
متن کاملHigh-dose melphalan with autologous bone marrow transplantation for multiple myeloma.
A large dose of melphalan was given to 23 patients with advanced multiple myeloma that was refractory to multiple prior treatments. Sixteen patients received a dose of 80 to 100 mg/m2, and seven were given 140 mg/m2 followed by autologous bone marrow infusion. Tumor mass was reduced by more than 75% in 14 patients, including four who died of bone marrow aplasia. Serious infections were prevente...
متن کاملA serum microRNA signature associated with complete remission and progression after autologous stem-cell transplantation in patients with multiple myeloma
We have examined serum microRNA expression in multiple myeloma (MM) patients at diagnosis and at complete response (CR) after autologous stem-cell transplantation (ASCT), in patients with stable monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, and in healthy controls. MicroRNAs were first profiled using TaqMan Human MicroRNA Arrays. Differentially expressed microRNAs were then validated by i...
متن کاملAdvanced POEMS syndrome treated with high-dose melphalan followed by autologous blood stem cell transplantation: a single-center experience
BACKGROUND POEMS syndrome is a rare paraneoplastic syndrome associated with plasma cell dyscrasia. High-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation has shown encouraging efficacy in the treatment of patients with POEMS syndrome. However, there are minimal reports on clinical outcomes after autologous stem cell transplantation for patients with advanced disease and very po...
متن کاملPoor Outcomes for IgD Multiple Myeloma Patients Following High-Dose Melphalan and Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation: A Single Center Experience
Immunoglobulin (Ig) D multiple myeloma (MM) accounts for 2% of all MM cases and has been reported to be associated with poor prognosis compared with other MM subtypes. The aim of the present study was to compare the effects of high-dose melphalan treatment and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) on the survival of patients with IgD MM and patients with other MM subtypes. Between Novembe...
