Of 364 patients with lymphoid malignancy who underwent high-dose therapy with autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) or peripheral stem cell transplantation (PSCT), 169 patients have had progressive disease after the procedure. The median survival from the time of relapse for patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) who progressed after the transplant was 10.5 months. This compares with a median survival of 3 months for relapsed non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) patients (P = .0036). After failing transplantation, 56 patients were treated with further chemotherapy, 35 with involved field irradiation therapy, and 18 patients were treated with combination chemotherapy and irradiation. Seven patients received biologic therapy and seven patients underwent a second bone marrow transplant. The remainder of the patients were believed to be too ill for further therapy or chose not to receive further treatment for their recurrent lymphoid malignancy. Sixty of the 169 patients with progressive disease after the transplant are still alive; however, only 18 patients are alive off therapy without evidence of active disease after their relapse. Ten of the 18 patients are still less than 12 months past their posttransplant salvage therapy and are at high-risk for relapse. Five patients are progression free at 15 to 36 months after their posttransplant relapse. Only three patients (two NHL and one HD) treated with other modalities after autologous transplant failure are alive without evidence of disease and have been observed at least 4 years postrelapse. Although a few patients will have a durable response to subsequent therapy, the majority of patients who have progressive disease after an autologous transplant for lymphoid malignancy will succumb to recurrent disease within a short period of time. 相似文献

The optimal timing of stem cell transplantation for multiple myeloma is controversial. Late stem cell collection is undesirable because of the inability to mobilize stem cells. We report on 64 recipients of stem cells collected within 1 year after diagnosis, none of whom had transplantation in plateau phase of their disease. Patients seen within 12 months after diagnosis received four cycles of standard vincristine, doxorubicin, and dexamethasone (VAD) chemotherapy and then had stem cells mobilized. Patients were then placed on maintenance vincristine, BCNU, melphalan, cyclophosphamide, and prednisone or melphalan and prednisone chemotherapy for 12 cycles. At the sign of first progression, transplantation occurred. Fourteen patients were refractory to VAD chemotherapy, 20 relapsed on maintenance chemotherapy, and 30 relapsed off chemotherapy. The time to platelet engraftment was not affected by the duration of stem cell cryopreservation or extent of chemotherapy exposure after mobilization. The complete response rate was 34%. The actuarial median survival from initial diagnosis, from transplant day 0, and post-transplant progression-free survival was 51, 20 and 11.4 months, respectively. The patient status at transplantation and percentage of plasma cells circulating in the blood at apheresis influenced post-transplant survival; circulating plasma cells, status at transplantation and plasma cell labeling index influenced progression-free survival. Response duration was shorter in patients relapsing on chemotherapy. 相似文献

Twenty-five patients with multiple myeloma received bone marrow grafts (n = 24) or peripheral blood stem cells (n = 1) from twin donors. The outcome was compared in a case-matched analysis to 125 patients who underwent autologous transplantation, and 125 who underwent allogeneic transplantation. Seventeen patients (68%) receiving twin transplants entered complete remission, which was not significantly different from that of autologous (48%) or allogeneic (58%) transplants. The median overall and progression-free survival for the twins was 73 and 72 months, respectively. The overall survival tended to be better (73 vs 44 months) and the progression-free survival was significantly better (72 vs 25 months) than with autologous transplantation and both were significantly better than with allogeneic transplantation. Three of 17 patients who entered complete remission following transplantation had relapsed at follow-up. This relapse rate was significantly lower than following autologous transplantation and similar to the relapse rate with allogeneic transplantation. Only two twins died of transplant-related toxicity. Six further patients died of progressive or relapsing disease. Syngeneic transplantation in multiple myeloma appears to be the treatment of choice if a twin donor is available. A lower relapse risk than in autotransplantation may be due to reinfusion of malignant cells in some patients treated with this modality or to the presence of a graft-versus-myeloma effect in some syngeneic transplants. 相似文献

Conventional monitoring strategies for myeloma are not sufficiently sensitive to identify patients likely to benefit from further therapy immediately after transplantation. We have used a sensitive flow cytometry assay that quantitates normal and neoplastic plasma cells to monitor the bone marrow of 45 patients undergoing high-dose chemotherapy. Neoplastic plasma cells were detectable at 3 months after transplantation in 42% of patients. Once detected, neoplastic cell levels increased steadily until clinical progression: these patients had a significantly shorter progression-free survival (PFS) (median, 20 months) than those with no detectable disease (median, longer than 35 months; P =.003). Neoplastic plasma cells were detectable in 27% (9 of 33) of immunofixation-negative complete-remission patients. These patients had a significantly shorter PFS than immunofixation-negative patients with no detectable neoplastic plasma cells (P =.04). Normal plasma cells were present in 89% of patients immediately after transplantation, but were not sustained in most cases. Patients with only normal phenotype plasma cells present at 3 months after transplantation and also at second assessment had a low risk of disease progression. Patients with neoplastic plasma cells present at 3 months after transplantation, or with only normal plasma cells present at first assessment and only neoplastic plasma cells at second assessment, had a significantly higher risk of early disease progression (P <.0001) with a 5-year survival of 54% for the high-risk group, compared with 100% in the low-risk group (P =.036). Analysis of normal and neoplastic plasma cell levels is more sensitive than immunofixation and can identify which patients may benefit from additional treatment strategies at an early stage after transplantation. 相似文献

Multiple myeloma (MM) is often successfully controlled with conventional chemotherapy; however, complete remissions are uncommon, and cure is rare. High-dose therapy followed by administration of autologous or allogeneic stem cells, used for the treatment of MM in the past 15 years, is promising as a means of increasing remission rates and improving survival. Autologous transplantation has not always demonstrated survival benefits in randomized studies because most of the patients receiving transplants have relapses, whereas patients given conventional therapy can receive salvage transplants when relapse occurs. Efforts to improve the results of autologous transplantation include targeted radiation, tandem transplantation, and posttransplantation immunotherapy. Only allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is potentially curative, owing to a graft-versus-myeloma effect. Although patients who receive either allogeneic or autologous stem cell transplants for MM have similar 3- to 5-year survival rates, only allograft recipients appear to enjoy long-term disease-free survival. High transplantation-related mortality associated with allogeneic stem cell transplantation is currently the major limitation to wider use of this potentially curative modality. Strategies designed to improve the therapeutic index of allografts include the use of nonablative conditioning regimens, peripheral blood cells rather than bone marrow, graft engineering, and targeted conditioning therapies, such as bone-seeking radioisotopes. 相似文献

Molecular follow-up has been carried out using immunoglobulin heavy-chain (IgH) gene fingerprinting, a polymerase chain reaction
(PCR)-based technique with a sensitivity of 0.1–0.01% (10–3–10–4), in 22 patients affected by multiple myeloma and submitted to stem cell transplantation (SCT). Twelve patients were submitted
to either single or double autologous unselected peripheral blood progenitor cell transplantation, eight patients were submitted
to autologous CD34+ immunoselected transplantation and two patients were submitted to allogeneic bone marrow (one patient)
or peripheral blood CD34+ stem cell (one patient) transplantation. At diagnosis, all patients showed clonal CDIII rearrangement.
The molecular analysis performed on leukapheresis products and CD34+ purified fractions proved to be contaminated by myeloma
cells. During follow-up after autografting, all but one patient retained clonal rearrangement despite clinical complete remission
(CR) in ten of them. These ten patients either relapsed (Rel) or showed progressive disease (PD) after transplantation; four
of them died. Only one patient did not retain clonal rearrangement after autologous transplantation; she is currently alive
in CR after a follow-up of 100 months. One patient submitted to allogeneic transplantation is currently alive with no evidence
of the disease, but still retains clonal rearrangement after a follow-up of 47 months. Another patient died 4 months after
transplantation after succumbing to fatal pneumonia showing myeloma progression.

One or two cycles of high-dose chemotherapy with autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation have been shown to improve response rates and survival in myeloma. While this observation has largely been made in patients under the age of 65 years, there is evidence to suggest that the conclusions can be extrapolated to older individuals as well. In contrast to other hematologic malignancies treated with high-dose therapy, autografted myeloma patients continue to relapse several years after transplantation, and few patients are cured with this modality. However, up to a third of patients may be alive beyond a decade; some with excellent quality of life giving rise to the concept of 'operational cure'. Relapsing disease can be treated with novel agents or repeat high-dose chemotherapy and transplantation. The pressing questions to which answers are not obvious at the moment are whether tandem transplantation should be offered to all patients, and whether novel agents should be used before transplantation or reserved for relapse. Despite their excellent activity, there is no evidence so far that novel agents such as thalidomide, bortezomib and lenalidomide can replace high-dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation. 相似文献

Treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) with high-dose chemotherapy and autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Peripheral T-cell lymphomas (PTCL) are a rare entity of non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL). Despite the poor outcome after conventional chemotherapy, the impact of high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation is not well defined in these patients. In a retrospective study, we evaluated the outcome of 15 patients (9 male, 6 female) with PTCL after HDCT with autologous (10 patients) and allogeneic (5 patients) stem cell transplantation between 1996 and 2001 at our department. At the time of transplantation three patients were in second remission, seven patients were in partial remission (PR), and three patients had refractory disease. Two patients were treated with sequential HDCT (cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, vincristine, etoposide, prednisolone, m-CHOEP). The conditioning regimes were heterogeneous. After HDCT ten patients (67%, autologous 7, allogeneic 3) achieved CR, two patients (13%, autologous 2, allogeneic 0) had refractory disease, and three patients (20%, autologous 1, allogeneic 2) died because of toxic side effects before evaluation of response was performed. The median overall survival (OS) was 12 months. The 1-year probability of survival for the autologous and allogeneic groups was 58% and 40%, respectively. At the time of evaluation, six patients are alive and nine patients have died (four severe infection, one late toxicity, two disease progression, and two relapse). Despite the small number of patients in this study, HDCT with autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic transplantation seems to be an effective treatment option that can achieve CR for patients with PTCL. Because of the poor outcome of these patients after conventional chemotherapy, HDCT seems to be a rational option in first-line therapy. Whether it improves survival in these patients should be further investigated. 相似文献

Patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD) who fail to enter a complete remission after an initial course of combination chemotherapy are usually considered to have an induction failure (IF); this subset of patients has an extremely poor outcome with further conventional therapy. Since 1985, we have entered 30 IF patients into protocols using conditioning with high-dose cyclophosphamide, carmustine (BCNU), and etoposide (VP16-213) with or without cisplatin (CBV +/- P) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) with bone marrow (19 patients), peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs; 8 patients), or both (3 patients). All except 2 patients had previously received chemotherapy regimens for HD that contained at least 7 drugs, and 9 had received prior radiotherapy (RT). After documentation of IF, the majority of patients received some cytoreductive therapy as specified by protocol (local RT in 9, two cycles of conventional chemotherapy in 2, both modalities in 2, or high-dose cyclophosphamide to enhance PBSC collection in 11) before CBV +/- P. Five treatment-related deaths occurred, all before day 150 posttransplant. Eleven patients have had progressive HD at a median of 6 months (range, 0.1 to 45 months) after ASCT. The actuarial progression-free survival (PFS) at a median follow- up of 3.6 years (range, 0.2 to 8.2 years) is 42% (95% confidence intervals, 21% to 61%). The statistical analysis identified only prior clinical bleomycin lung toxicity as an adverse risk factor for PFS, mainly because of the increased nonrelapse mortality seen in these patients. CBV +/- P and ASCT can produce durable remission in a substantial proportion of IF HD patients who otherwise have a poor survival, and we believed ASCT approaches represent the best therapy currently available for these patients. Additional measures are needed to reduce the primary problem of disease progression despite high-dose chemotherapy and stem cell transplantation. 相似文献

The outcome of high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) was evaluated retrospectively in 27 patients with myeloma and four patients with AL amyloidosis with severe renal impairment. Twenty-three patients were receiving dialysis and the rest had a creatinine clearance of <20 ml/min. The median melphalan dose was 140 mg/m2 (range: 60-200 mg/m2), but 10 patients (37%) received 200 mg/m2. Myeloid and platelet engraftment were similar to that seen in patients without renal failure. Five of 27 patients died of transplant-related toxicity before the day 100. Twenty of 27 patients had a response (70%). The median time to disease progression was 32 months (range: 6-54 months) and the median time to best response was 6.5 months. Four of 17 evaluable patients (24%) became dialysis-independent at a median of 5 months post-HDT/stem cell transplantation. At a median follow-up of 70 months, 7/23 patients with myeloma were alive but three of these seven patients had progressive disease. Two of the four patients with amyloidosis have survived. HDT is feasible in these patients and results in 5-year survival in about one-third of patients. 相似文献

The role of high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) in patients with refractory breast cancer is not well established. Forty-two female patients (median age of 46 years) with breast cancer refractory to neoadjuvant chemotherapy received HDCT (cyclophosphamide, carmustine and thiotepa) supported by an autologous peripheral blood stem cells transplant. Their disease had been refractory (defined as less than partial response) to one (18 patients) or two (24 patients) regimens of neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Twenty-nine patients had surgery before HDCT. The best response after surgery, HDCT, and radiation therapy was assessed 60 days after transplantation. Thirty patients had complete remission, eight had a PR, one had a minor response, and three had progressive disease. In seven of 13 patients whose disease was inoperable before HDCT, it became operable. After a median follow-up of 42 months, 21 patients were alive, and 15 remained disease free. Five-year overall survival (OS) was 57% (CI, 50-64%), and the estimated 5-year progression-free survival was 40% (CI, 32-48%). Both OS and PFS were better in patients whose disease became operable after chemotherapy than in those whose disease remained inoperable. A randomized study is warranted in this patient population. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of autologous stem cell transplantation for patients with relapsed or primary chemotherapy-refractory myeloma. Seventy-five patients, 50 men and 25 women, ages 33-68 years (median, 53 years), who underwent transplantation for relapsed or primary refractory myeloma were studied. Patients underwent transplantation 5-88 months (median, 23 months) after diagnosis of myeloma. The time to transplantation was significantly shorter in patients with refractory disease than for those with relapsed myeloma (median, 8 and 32 months, respectively; P < 0.001). Patients with primary refractory myeloma had a significantly lower plasma cell labeling index than those with relapsed disease (P = 0.008). There were no differences in overall and complete response rates between patients with primary refractory and relapsed disease. The median survival of the entire cohort from diagnosis was 53 months. Overall survival from transplantation among patients with relapsed myeloma receiving therapy, relapsed myeloma off therapy, and primary refractory myeloma was significantly different (P = 0.04), with median times of 12, 21 and 30 months, respectively. Progression-free survival also was different (P < 0.001), with median times of 7, 13, and 26 months, respectively. We conclude that overall and progression-free survival in patients with primary refractory myeloma appear better than in patients with relapsed disease and need further study. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Even after high dose chemotherapy (HDT) and autologous haemopoietic stem cell transplantation, the majority of patients with multiple myeloma eventually relapse. Aim: The aim of the present study was to study the -feasibility and outcome of delivering a regimen including in vivo and in vitro purging and double HDT in patients with multiple myeloma. METHODS: Thirty-four patients with advanced multiple myeloma were enrolled in a program of vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone chemotherapy, high dose cyclophosphamide/granulocyte macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) stem cell mobilisation, CD34 selection of harvested stem cells (in vitro purging), double HDT (cyclophosphamide/epirubicin in the first, busulphan/melphalan in the second) rescued by CD34(+)-selected cells, the second rescue using cells harvested following the first HDT (in vivo purging) and interferon maintenance. RESULTS: Forty-four per cent of patients completed the program. Fifty-three per cent of withdrawals were as a result of insufficient stem cells. This correlated to previous chemotherapy. Therapy-related mortality was 6%. CD34(+) selection achieved more than a 2-log reduction of CD38(++) cells; in vivo purging achieved 80%. Although similar numbers of CD34(+) cells were reinfused at both HDT, platelet recovery was slower after the second HDT. Additional complete remissions were achieved after each phase of therapy, 3% at the end of vincristine, doxorubicin and dexamethasone and 33% after completing planned HDT. Factors associated with longer overall survival included age less than 60 years (P = 0.044), serum beta-2-microglobulin below 3 micro gamma/L at entry (P = 0.042) and less than 2 months between the two HDT (P = 0.024). The only factor associated with a longer event-free survival was less than 2 months between HDT on study (P = 0.038). CONCLUSIONS: (i) dose intensification with two HDT delivered within 2 months might be associated with a better patient outcome, (ii) early mobilisation should be incorporated in multiple myeloma HDT programs and (iii) higher CD34(+) doses may be required for tandem transplants. 相似文献

To determine the outcomes of women with isolated loco-regional recurrence (LRR) of breast cancer treated with high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) following conventional therapy, we conducted a retrospective review of 58 patients from five institutions treated between 1990 and 1998. Forty-five patients (78%) had > or = 2 poor prognostic factors (PPF) (defined as disease-free interval preceding LRR < or = 2 years, hormone receptor negative/refractory disease, and incomplete resection). At median follow-up of 14.2 (0.5-72) months, 36 patients (62%) developed progressive disease. Disease progression usually occurred at local (27 patients) vs distant (nine patients) sites. Median time to disease progression following ASCT was 6.1 (1.3-31.4) months. At last follow-up, 23 patients (40%) had expired (all due to disease progression), and 13 (22%) were alive with, and 22 (38%) without progressive disease. By Kaplan-Meier analysis, the estimated median PFS and OS was 20.3 and 29.2 months, respectively. In a multivariate model, complete remission at time of HDCT and estrogen-receptor positive disease were predictive of significantly longer PFS and OS. The survival of this cohort was similar to previous reports of those treated with conventional therapy alone, and to those with distant metastases treated with HDCT. Frequent progression locally, suggests that strategies to improve local disease control are needed. 相似文献

Our purpose was to study the risk factors associated with disease progression after high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous stem cell transplantation in patients with recurrent or refractory Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL). We analyzed the long-term outcome of 184 patients with recurrent or refractory HL who underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. At the time of transplantation, 82 patients were in first relapse or second remission, 46 patients were refractory to the primary induction chemotherapy, and 56 patients were beyond first relapse or second remission. In 64 patients, the disease had proved refractory to the chemotherapy regimen administered immediately prior to transplantation. The median follow-up of patients who were alive and free of disease at the time of this report was 8.9 years (range, 0.1-19.0 years). At 10 years, the overall and disease-free survival rates were 34% (95% CI 27-42) and 29% (95% CI 22-36) respectively. The major cause of treatment failure was disease relapse. Chemotherapy resistance prior to transplantation, advanced stage, and higher number of chemotherapy regimens administered prior to transplantation were adverse prognostic factors for disease progression. We conclude that autologous transplantation is an effective salvage treatment for recurrent HL. 相似文献

Early absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) recovery at day 15 post-autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) is a powerful prognostic indicator for survival in multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The relationship of ALC with clinical outcomes in metastatic breast cancer is unknown. We evaluated all 29 patients with metastatic breast cancer who underwent ASCT at the Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, from 1994 to 1999. The ALC threshold was set at 500 cells/microl on day 15 post-ASCT based on previous experience with hematologic malignancies. All patients were followed for a minimum of 2 years or until death, with a median follow-up for living patients of 2.25 years. Of the 29 patients, 17 have died with disease progression, two are alive and have progressed, and 10 are alive without progression. The median overall and progression-free survival times were significantly better for the 20 patients with ALC > or = 500 cells/microl compared with the nine patients with ALC <500 cells/microl (not reached vs 14 months, P < 0.0001; 24 vs 7 months, P < 0.0015, respectively). In conclusion, ALC > or = 500 cells/microl on day 15 post-ASCT was associated with significantly better survival in patients with metastatic breast cancer, suggesting the importance of early immune recovery post-ASCT in these patients. 相似文献

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) embraces disorders characterized by the presence of marrow-derived abnormal Langerhans cells. A small number of patients with multisystem disease, vital organ dysfunction and rapid disease progression are considered to have a poor prognosis despite various treatments. Antiproliferative and immunosuppressive therapy, in combination with marrow transplantation, could be the appropriate treatment for these poor-prognostic patients. Four patients with progressive LCH were treated with high dose chemotherapy and fractionated total body irradiation followed by either an allogeneic (n = 2) or autologous (n = 2) marrow graft. Two of them are alive and have been disease free for almost 2 and 4 years after marrow grafting, respectively. One of the two survivors is the recipient of an allogeneic and the other of an autologous marrow graft. Two patients died, one of intrapulmonary hemorrhage 14 days after transplantation with active disease at autopsy, and the other of relapse of the original disease 355 days after marrow grafting. For patients with multisystem progressive LCH, allogeneic and autologous marrow transplantation may offer an opportunity for long-term remission and disease-free survival. 相似文献

Sixty-three patients with high tumor mass multiple myeloma were treated with high-dose chemotherapy and total body irradiation supported by autologous blood stem cell transplantation. After high-dose therapy, they were monitored for a median of 44 months. Seven patients died early from toxicity. All the other patients, including those whose disease was resistant to previous therapies, showed a tumor mass reduction. At 6 months postengraftment, 40 (71%) of the surviving patients had minimal residual disease and 11 (20%) were in apparent complete remission. During follow-up, 25 out of the 63 (39%) patients relapsed and 16 of these died; 31 (49%) had a sustained remission. The median overall and event-free survival times after transplantation were 59 and 43 months, respectively. The initial serum beta 2-microglobulin value (> or < 2.8 mg/L) and length of previous therapy (> or < 6 courses of chemotherapy) were the only significant prognostic factors. In all surviving patients, blood stem cell autograft provided satisfactory and sustained haematopoietic reconstitution most often within 15 days. High dose chemoradiotherapy followed by autologous blood stem cell transplantation is thus an important therapeutic option for young patients with aggressive multiple myeloma. 相似文献

Preliminary evidence suggests that high-dose chemotherapy followed by autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation may be effective in some patients with resistant Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia. During the last 10 years, seven patients with Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia have received transplants at the MD Anderson Cancer Center, four with autologous and three with allogeneic stem cells. Four patients achieved partial remission, and three patients have remained alive for at least 2 years. Our data confirm the feasibility of high-dose therapy in patients with macroglobulinemia and support the need for prospective studies of this modality in patients with chemosensitive disease. 相似文献

Forty patients with plasma cell dyscrasias underwent high-dose chemoradiotherapy and either anti-B-cell monoclonal antibody (MoAb)- treated autologous, anti-T-cell MoAb-treated HLA-matched sibling allogeneic or syngeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). The majority of patients had advanced Durie-Salmon stage myeloma at diagnosis, all were pretreated with chemotherapy, and 17 had received prior radiotherapy. At the time of BMT, all patients demonstrated good performance status with Karnofsky score of 80% or greater and had less than 10% marrow tumor cells; 34 patients had residual monoclonal marrow plasma cells and 38 patients had paraprotein. Following high-dose chemoradiotherapy, there were 18 complete responses (CR), 18 partial responses, one non-responder, and three toxic deaths. Granulocytes greater than 500/microL and untransfused platelets greater than 20,000/microL were noted at a median of 23 (range, 12 to 46) and 25 (range, 10 to 175) days posttransplant (PT), respectively, in 24 of the 26 patients who underwent autografting. In the 14 patients who received allogeneic or syngeneic grafts, granulocytes greater than 500/microL and untransfused platelets greater than 20,000/microL were noted at a median of 19 (range, 12 to 24) and 16 (range, 5 to 32) days PT, respectively. With 24 months median follow-up for survival after autologous BMT, 16 of 26 patients are alive free from progression at 2+ to 55+ months PT; of these, 5 patients remain in CR at 6+ to 55+ months PT. With 24 months median follow-up for survival after allogeneic and syngeneic BMT, 8 of 14 patients are alive free from progression at 8+ to 34+ months PT; of these, 5 patients remain in CR at 8+ to 34+ months PT. This therapy has achieved high response rates and prolonged progression-free survival in some patients and proven to have acceptable toxicity. However, relapses post-BMT, coupled with slow engraftment post-BMT in heavily pretreated patients, suggest that such treatment strategies should be used earlier in the disease course. To define the role of BMT in the treatment of myeloma, its efficacy should be compared with that of conventional chemotherapy in a randomized trial. 相似文献
