Long-term survival after allogeneic haematopoietic cell transplantation for AML in remission: single-centre results after TBI-based myeloablative and non-myeloablative conditioning

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after immunosuppressive but non-myeloablative conditioning: "miniallografts" are no small matter.

Allogeneic stem cell transplantation using non-myeloablative conditioning regimens: results of the Mexican approach.

We have used a novel method to conduct non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation (NST), making the following changes in previous methods: Use of the cheapest conditioning drugs, tailored number of apheresis sessions in the donors, elimination of ganciclovir and IgG, outpatient conduction when possible, diminished number of transfusions of blood products and diminished number of donor lymphocy...

Non-myeloablative allogeneic peripheral stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma.

OBJECTIVE To present an institution's 2-year experience of non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation among Chinese patients. DESIGN Retrospective study. SETTING Bone marrow transplantation unit at a university hospital, Hong Kong. PATIENTS Ten patients with multiple myeloma who received non-myeloablative allogeneic stem cell transplantation between March 2000 and October 2002...

reduced intensity versus full myeloablative conditioning in allogeneic stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia

introduction: allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) has been reported to be a successful curative treatment in aml patients. myeloablative conditioning (mac) is used more frequent as a preparing regimen. this study attempts to compare the outcome of patients who has received mac and reduced- intensity conditioning (ric). methods: totally, 618 patients with aml underwent hsct...

Prevalence of chimerism after non-myeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

CONTEXT AND OBJECTIVE Non-myeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (NMA-HSCT) is performed in onco-hematological patients who cannot tolerate ablative conditioning because of older age or comorbidities. This approach does not completely eliminate host cells and initially results in mixed chimerism. Long-term persistence of mixed chimerism results in graft rejection and relapse. Inv...
