Transplant activity by members of the European Group for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) and related European teams is reported for 1996 by indication, donor type and stem cell source. Bearing in mind reports from previous years, the annual numbers of transplants for each indication, transplant rates for each participating country, changes in transplant rates by indication and changes in donor types and stem cell sources are described. A total 14,593 blood or marrow transplants, performed in Europe by 382 teams from 31 countries, were reported in 1996. Of these, 4393 (30%) were allogeneic and 10,200 (70%) were autologous transplants. Of the autologous transplants, 978 (10%) were bone marrow derived, 9222 (90%) from peripheral blood stem cells or combined bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell transplants. Of the allogeneic transplants, 3252 (74%) were bone marrow and 1141 (26%) were peripheral blood stem cell transplants. Main indications in 1996 were leukemias with 4961 transplants (34%), 70% allogeneic and 30% autologous; lymphomas with 5505 transplants (38%), 6% allogeneic and 94% autologous; solid tumours with 3484 transplants (24%), 1% allogeneic and 99% autologous; non-malignant disorders with 643 transplants (4%), 92% allogeneic and 8% autologous. There are major differences between countries. Transplant rates per 10m inhabitants per country ranged from 0 to >500 (median 202 per 10 m inhabitants). The most pronounced increase since 1990 for new indications in autologous transplants was observed in multiple myeloma and carcinoma of the breast. These data reflect recent changes and present status of blood and marrow transplantation in Europe. They provide a basis for patient counselling and health care planning. 相似文献

Engraftment of marrow following autologous or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) may be influenced by quantity and function of stem cells. T lymphocytes, supporting microenvironmental cells, and hematopoietic growth factors (HGF). To elucidate the physiologic role of interleukin-3 (IL-3) in the engraftment process, serum IL-3 levels were measured in over 400 samples from 77 transplant recipients before and for up to 3 weeks following transplantation using a novel enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) with a sensitivity of > or = 78 pg/mL. Thirty-seven patients received two to three log T-cell-depleted allografts. In the remaining 40 patients (18 autologous marrow, 12 allogeneic marrow, and 10 autologous peripheral blood [PB] stem cell), T cells were not depleted (non-TCD) from the grafts. A burst of IL-3 (peak levels, 1,500 to 6,000 pg/mL) was detected in the immediate posttransplant period between day 0 and day 14 in all non-TCD recipients and in 21 of 37 (57%) of TCD recipients. A strong inverse relationship between IL-3 levels and absolute neutrophil count (ANC) was observed in both non-TCD recipients (r = -.796) and in TCD recipients (r = -.897). However, both peak IL-3 levels and mean IL-3 levels from day 0 through 14 were significantly lower in TCD recipients compared with either autologous or unmodified allogeneic marrow recipients (P < .01). The lowest peak or mean day 0 through 14 IL-3 levels were observed in matched related recipients undergoing the most aggressive (2.5 to 3.0 log) T-cell-depleted BMT. Autografted patients receiving blood stem cell transplants alone or posttransplant granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) or granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) also had significantly lower peak IL-3 levels (P < .01). In patients receiving TCD grafts, administration of antithymocyte globulin (ATG) posttransplant significantly increased peak IL-3 levels compared with patients not treated with ATG (P < .04). This study shows that endogenous release of IL-3 is strongly associated with myeloid engraftment and inversely related to ANC. Removal of T lymphocytes from donor marrow or acceleration of engraftment by use of stem cells or growth factors appears to blunt the endogenous release of IL-3 whereas use of ATG posttransplant increases IL-3 release. 相似文献

Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is the only currently available curative treatment for myelodysplastic syndromes (MDSs) but can be used only in the minority of patients (10%) who are younger than 55 years or so and for whom an HLA-identical donor is available. Each year in Europe, about 100 patients with MDSs receive an autologous bone marrow transplant. This procedure is usually indicated as first-line treatment, except in patients without excess of blasts or complex cytogenetic abnormalities. In forms with excess of blasts, chemotherapy prior to bone marrow transplantation deserves discussion. Autologous bone marrow transplants or the more recent technique involving transplantation of autologous peripheral stem cells can be considered in patients who have achieved a complete remission under aggressive chemotherapy. This method has been followed by higher recurrence rates in patients with MDSs than in those with de novo acute myeloblastic leukemia, and randomized studies are under way to compare it with aggressive maintenance chemotherapy. 相似文献

One hundred consecutive autologous stem cell transplants are reported: Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma 51 cases, Hodgkin's disease 27 cases, acute leukaemia 14 cases, multiple myeloma seven cases and chronic myeloid leukaemia one case. Most patients were in their second or later remission. The overall three-year survival for all patients was 60% and the three-year disease-free survival was 50% for lymphoma patients and 30% for acute leukaemia patients. The dominant source of stem cells was bone marrow during 1993, but from 1994 it has been peripheral blood, now totalling 33 cases. There were 12 toxic deaths, all among patients who were heavily treated before bone marrow harvest and transplantation. The patients transplanted with blood stem cells had significantly shorter duration of pancytopenia, and hospital stay, but their disease-free survival was not longer than that of a comparable group of bone marrow transplanted patients. Six patients were transplanted with purified CD34+ cells (selected by avidity column (Ceprate (R)), and had duration of thrombocytopenia and hospital stay similar to the patients transplanted with unmanipulated blood stem cells, but slightly longer duration of neutropenia. We conclude that high-dose therapy with autologous stem cell transplantation in not too heavily pretreated patients is a safe procedure irrespective of the source of stem cells. 相似文献

Over the past decade, relevant improvements and refinements have significantly changed the indications, technique and results obtained with allogeneic transplantation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in childhood. In this review the most important innovations that have characterized the practice of HSC transplantation in childhood during this decade will be discussed. We will analyze the clinical and biological advantages or disadvantages which characterize most typically HSC transplantation procedure in terms of the source of these cells (bone marrow, peripheral blood, placental blood). A fundamental turning point in the history of allogeneic transplantation of HSC is represented by the use of placental blood, which was first employed in 1988. Autologous, peripheral blood progenitor cells are increasingly being used as a source of HSC following high-dose therapy for malignant disease, because of the ease of collection and the markedly faster kinetics of engraftment in comparison with bone marrow. In particular, over the past decade, due to the much faster recovery of all hematopoietic lineages in comparison with bone marrow and due to the short duration of antibiotic therapy and hospitalization, also in pediatric patients, auto-transfusion of circulating hematopoietic progenitors is rapidly replacing autologous bone marrow transplantation after high-dose chemotherapy for lymphomas and solid tumors. On the contrary, due to concerns in pediatric patients related to the use of hematopoietic growth factors in a healthy donor, allograft of peripheral blood progenitor cells is not routinely used. Since indications for allogeneic HSC transplantation that had already been well established in the recent past have been complemented by others and a relevant number of disorders are no longer considered to be eligible for allograft, the evolution in the indications for allogeneic transplant of HSC in childhood will be discussed. Likewise, biotechnological, social and organizational refinements which have allowed the greatest advances of allogeneic HSC transplantation in this decade will be analyzed, as well as some still open bioethical question regarding this procedure. 相似文献

More than 15 years passed since bone marrow transplantation (BMT) have first introduced to the field of treatment of pediatric cancer. During this period, technology and modality of BMT have been improved steadily and several kinds of hemopoietic stem cell transplantation, for instance, allogeneic BMT from related or unrelated donor, unpurged or purged autologous BMT by 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4-HC) or magnetic immuno-beads, allogeneic or autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and cord blood stem cell transplantation became available. Now we can choose the most suitable transplantation method for each patient from our repertory according to the patient's condition. In this article, treatment result of allogeneic BMT and 4-HC purged autologous BMT for children with acute leukemia and several kinds of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for children with solid tumors in my hospital were reported. 相似文献

The option of bone marrow transplantation (BMT) significantly improved prognosis of adult patients with hematologic malignancies aged less than 50 years. Allogeneic BMT using the marrow of an HLA-identical family member still provides the most effective method of BMT. Conventional indications for this form of BMT are chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), acute leukemias presenting with adverse risk factors, myelodysplastic syndromes and severe aplastic anemia. If performed early in the disease course (e.g. during the chronic phase of CML or first remission of acute leukemia and MDS) allogeneic BMT cures 50 to 60% of patients. About 20% die of therapy related complications, e.g. graft versus host disease (GvHD), fatal infections or venoocclusive disease of the liver (VOD) and about 20% of patients succumb to relapse of their hematologic disorder. 80% presenting with severe aplastic anemia can be cured, if allogeneic BMT is performed soon after diagnosis without previous immunosuppressive therapy and blood transfusions. BMT with the marrow of a matched unrelated donor or autologous BMT are increasingly used as alternative procedures. A rate of lethal complications as high as 50% hinders rapid extension of BMT with unrelated donors. Therefore, this form of BMT should be restricted to young patients with leukemias, who cannot achieve long-term remission with conventional chemotherapy (in case of acute leukemias) or alpha-interferon (in case of CML). Reconstitution of hematopoiesis is more rapid after peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) compared with autologous BMT. Therefore, PBSCT will replace autologous BMT in most cases. Most favourable results of PBSCT have been reported in patients with malignant lymphomas after relapse or inferior response to primary induction therapy. Due to the higher relapse rate autologous BMT is inferior to allogeneic BMT in leukemia patients. Trials are required to clarify the potential role of myeloablative therapy with stem cell support in the treatment of patients with solid tumors. Many of the preliminary results already published are unsatisfactory and data of larger trials are still lacking. Therefore, BMT or PBSCT cannot be recommended generally for the therapy of patients with solid tumors. 相似文献

A major concern with allogeneic BMT for treating most inherited diseases is the need to overcome graft rejection with conditioning chemotherapy which is associated with a relatively high morbidity and mortality. This can be eliminated if the transplant is done in utero when the fetus is unable to reject donor hematopoietic stem cells (HSC). We studied the efficacy of T cell-depleted (TCD) parental bone marrow as a source of HSC for transplantation into early gestation non-defective fetal rhesus monkeys. Thirteen opposite sexed TCD transplants were done into 44 day fetal recipients and 12 into 61 day recipients (165 day total gestation). The procedure-related mortality was 8%, all in the earlier age group. The overall survival was 60% at birth with a projected survival of 44 +/- 10% at 1.5 years with no difference between the two age groups. We used a PCR assay for the rhesus Y chromosome to detect male donor cells in female recipients (six animals transplanted at 44 days and five at 63 days). The overall engraftment rate was 73% with no difference as a function of gestational age at transplant. In six long-term surviving engrafted females we detected donor cells in the peripheral blood and bone marrow up to 3 years of age. We found a delay in the appearance of donor cells in the peripheral blood in engrafted animals, in some cases for up to 6 months post-BMT. In vitro mixed lymphocyte reaction and cell-mediated lymphocytotoxicity studies between the recipient and donor cells indicate that tolerance was induced to donor cells. Individual and pooled erythroid and myeloid marrow colonies grown in methyl cellulose were collected and analyzed for donor origin by PCR. The amount of donor cells in marrows from long-term engrafted animals was < 0.1%. In a fetal recipient studied at 35 days post-BMT, donor cells were detected in bone marrow and liver in both erythroid and myeloid lineages. These results indicate that TCD parental marrow can durably engraft in utero. While the engraftment rate is similar to that seen with fetal liver as the source of HSC, the degree of peripheral blood engraftment (percent donor cells) in this non-defective primate model is low. It will require increasing the percent pre-or postnatally for this approach to be clinically relevant in those disorders in which there is no selective survival advantage for normal engrafted donor cells. 相似文献

High dose chemotherapy with or without total body irradiation and autologous stem cell rescue has proven to be effective treatment to cure patients with relapsed intermediate grade and high grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Important factors for selection of candidates most likely to do well with these approaches include patients whose disease is responsive to conventional therapy and those who have minimal disease volume at the time of transplant. The treatment-related mortality of autologous stem cell transplantation has diminished from 20% to less than 5% with improved supportive care and selection of patients with less advanced disease. Although the treatment-related mortality of allogeneic stem cell transplantation may be as high as 20-40%, a graft versus lymphoma effect may decrease relapse with the result that overall survival is not substantially different between autologous and allogeneic transplantation. The definitive indications for stem cell transplantation include patients who have relapsed with intermediate or high grade NHL. Relative indications include intermediate/high grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma patients, "high risk" first complete remission (CR), resistant relapse; low grade non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in sensitive or resistant relapse, advanced disease (sensitive or resistant relapse, transformation), first CR (younger patients). Relative contraindications include specific patient profiles such as bulky high grade lymphoma which progresses on appropriate conventional therapy, poor performance status, active serious infection, serious cardiac, renal, pulmonary or liver dysfunction, active, central nervous system (CNS) disease unresponsive to cranial irradiation/intrathecal therapy. For patients with previous marrow involvement or active marrow involvement at the time of harvest or transplant, "purged" autografts, peripheral blood stem cell transplantation and allografts have been used successfully. 相似文献

An observational study was conducted at 18 transplant centers in the United States and Canada to characterize the platelet recovery of patients receiving myeloablative therapy and stem cell transplantation and to determine the clinical variables influencing recovery, determine platelet utilization and cost, and incidence of hemorrhagic events. The study included 789 evaluable patients transplanted in 1995. Clinical, laboratory, and outcome data were obtained from the medical records. Variables associated with accelerated recovery in multivariate models included (1) higher CD34 count; (2) higher platelet count at the start of myeloablative therapy; (3) graft from an HLA-identical sibling donor; and (4) prior stem cell transplant. Variables associated with delayed recovery were (1) prior radiation therapy; (2) posttransplant fever; (3) hepatic veno-occlusive disease; and (4) use of posttransplant growth factors. Disease type also influenced recovery. Recipients of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSC) had faster recovery and fewer platelet transfusion days than recipients of bone marrow (BM). The estimated average 60-day platelet transfusion cost per patient was $4,000 for autologous PBSC and $11,000 for allogeneic BM transplants. It was found that 11% of all patients had a significant hemorrhagic event during the first 60 days posttransplant, contributing to death in 2% of patients. In conclusion, clinical variables influencing platelet recovery should be considered in the design and interpretation of clinical strategies to accelerate recovery. Enhancing platelet recovery is not likely to have a significant impact on 60-day mortality but could significantly decrease health care costs and potentially improve patient quality of life. 相似文献

Acquired ichthyosis (AI) has rarely been described following bone marrow transplantation (BMT). We report a 29-year-old male, who underwent allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (alloPBSCT) for chronic myelogenous leukemia, and who developed AI associated with chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). Both of these disorders were treated successfully with cyclosporin A. We conclude that AI may be related to an autoimmune process on the basis of cGVHD, and dermathopathologic evaluation must be performed in patients with skin changes suggesting AI following allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: Evaluation of induction of complete remission with infusion of lymphocytes from the original bone marrow donor in patients with leukaemia which relapsed after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. SETTING: Division of Haematology, University Hospital Nijmegen and the Red Cross Blood Bank Nijmegen, the Netherlands. DESIGN: Prospective, non-randomized study. METHODS: Twenty-eight patients who relapsed after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation were treated with infusion of lymphocytes from the original bone marrow donor. Lymphocytes were collected by means of leukapheresis. Follow-up was done by frequent checks at the outpatient clinic. RESULTS: Eleven of 15 (73%) patients with relapsed chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) and only one of 13 patients (8%) with a relapse of acute leukaemia went into complete remission (p < 0.001). Entering complete remission was always preceded by acute or chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). The development of acute and/or chronic GVHD was significantly associated with the origin of T-lymphocytes in the blood of the recipient at the time of infusion. If the T-lymphocytes came mostly from the patient himself, the infusion remained usually without effect. If the T-lymphocytes came mostly from the donor, the patients went into complete remission. CONCLUSION: Patients with a relapse of leukaemia after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation may enter complete remission after infusion of lymphocytes from the original marrow donor. This form of immunotherapy can be successful especially in patients with a relapsed CML with a relatively low percentage of autologous T-lymphocytes at the time of infusion. 相似文献

The immune-mediated graft-versus-leukemia effect is important to prevent relapse after allogeneic progenitor cell transplantation. This process requires engraftment of donor immuno-competent cells. The objective of this study was to assess the feasibility of achieving engraftment of allogeneic peripheral blood or bone marrow progenitor cell after purine analog containing nonmyeloablative chemotherapy. Patients with advanced leukemia or myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) who were not candidates for a conventional myeloablative therapy because of older age or organ dysfunction were eligible. All patients had an HLA-identical or one-antigen-mismatched related donor. Fifteen patients were treated (13 with acute myeloid leukemia and 2 with MDS). The median age was 59 years (range, 27 to 71 years). Twelve patients were either refractory to therapy or beyond first relapse. Eight patients received fludarabine at 30 mg/m2/d for 4 days with idarubicin at 12 mg/m2/d for 3 days and ara-c at 2 g/m2/d for 4 days (n = 7) or melphalan at 140 mg/m2/d (n = 1). Seven patients received 2-chloro-deoxyadenosine at 12 mg/m2/d for 5 days and ara-C 1 at g/m2/d for 5 days. Thirteen patients received allogeneic peripheral blood stem cells and 1 received bone marrow after chemotherapy. Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis consisted of cyclosporine and methyl-prednisolone. Treatment was generally well tolerated, with only 1 death from multiorgan failure before receiving stem cells. Thirteen patients achieved a neutrophil count of greater than 0.5 x 10(9)/L a median of 10 days postinfusion (range, 8 to 17 days). Ten patients achieved platelet counts of 20 x 10(9)/L a median of 13 days after progenitor cell infusion (range, 7 to 78 days). Eight patients achieved complete remissions (bone marrow blasts were < 5% with neutrophil recovery and platelet transfusion independence) that lasted a median of 60 days posttransplantation (range, 34 to 170+ days). Acute GVHD grade > or = 2 occurred in 3 patients. Chimerism analysis of bone marrow cells in 6 of 8 patients achieving remission showed > or = 90% donor cells between 14 and 30 days postinfusion, and 3 of 4 patients remaining in remission between 60 and 90 days continued to have > or = 80% donor cells. We conclude that purine analog-containing nonmyeloablative regimens allow engraftment of HLA-compatible hematopoietic progenitor cells. This approach permits us to explore the graft-versus-leukemia effect without the toxicity of myeloablative therapy and warrants further study in patients with leukemia who are ineligible for conventional transplantation with myeloablative regimens either because of age or concurrent medical conditions. 相似文献

Allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplants from HLA-identical siblings were performed in 37 patients with advanced hematologic malignancies. Outcomes were compared to a historical group of 37 similar patients with advanced hematologic malignancies receiving bone marrow (BM) transplants from HLA-identical donors. The PBSC group and historical BM group were well matched for diagnosis, disease stage, age, and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. Patients received PBSC transplants between 1993 to 1995 while BM patients were treated between 1989 to 1994. Engraftment, measured by the time to reach a peripheral neutrophil count > 500/L and platelet count > 20,000/microL without transfusions, occurred on days 14 and 11 in the patients transplanted with PBSC compared to days 16 and 15 in the patients receiving BM (P = .00063, .00014). The PBSC group required a median of 8 U of red blood cells and 24 U of platelets compared to 17 U of red blood cells and 118 U of platelets for BM transplant recipients (P = .0005, .0001). The estimated risks of developing grades 2 to 4 acute GVHD were 37% for the PBSC group and 56% for the BM group (P = .18), while the estimated risks of grades 3 to 4 acute GVHD were 14% for the PBSC group and 33% for the BM group, P = .05). Chronic GVHD occurred in 7 of 18 evaluable patients receiving PBSC and 6 of 23 evaluable patients receiving BM, P = .5. The estimated risks of transplant-related mortality at 200 days were 27% versus 45% (P = .33) relapse were 70% versus 53% (P = .27) and of overall survival were 50% and 41% (P = .39) for patients transplanted with PBSC or BM, respectively. This retrospective comparison suggests that compared to marrow transplantation from HLA-identical donors, allogeneic PBSC transplantation from HLA-identical donors is associated with faster engraftment, fewer transfusions, and no greater incidence of acute or chronic GVHD. 相似文献

Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) after high-dose, marrow-ablative chemoradiotherapy has been established as the treatment of choice for various hematologic, neoplastic, and congenital disorders. The most common type of marrow graft is an allogeneic one from a sibling donor who has compatible human leukocyte antigen (HLA). Only 30% of patients requiring allogeneic BMT have an HLA-compatible sibling donor. Over the past few years, marrows from unrelated HLA-compatible donors have been used with increasing frequency and promising outcome in certain hematologic malignancies. Despite the morbidity and mortality associated with this treatment modality, allogeneic BMT may provide a 20% to 90% chance of long-term, disease-free survival to patients with a wide variety of neoplastic and abnormal marrow disorders. 相似文献

Sixty-three new untreated patients with multiple myeloma under the age of 70 years received C-VAMP induction treatment followed by high-dose intravenous melphalan (200 mg m(-2)) and autologous stem cell transplant, either with marrow [autologous bone marrow transplants (ABMT), n = 26] or with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-mobilized stem cells from the blood [peripheral blood stem cell transplants (PBSCT), n = 37]. This was a sequential study and the two groups were not significantly different for all known prognostic variables. The complete remission (CR) rate after high-dose treatment was the same for both groups [ABMT 84% and PBSCT 70%; P = not significant (NS)]. Neutrophil recovery to 0.5 x 10(9) l(-1) occurred at a median of 22 days in the ABMT patients compared with 19 days for the PBSCT patients (P = NS). Platelet recovery to 50 x 10(9) l(-1) was significantly faster in PBSCT patients (19 days vs 33 days; P = 0.0015), and the PBSCT patients spent fewer days in hospital (median 20 vs 27 days; P = 0.00001). There was no difference in the two groups with respect to starting interferon (58 days for ABMT vs 55 days for PBSCT), and tolerance to interferon was identical. The median overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) for the PBSCT patients has not yet been reached. The OS in the ABMT patients at 3 years was 76.9% (95% CI 60-93%) compared with 85.3% (95% CI 72-99%) in the PBSCT patients (P = NS), and the PFS at 3 years in the ABMT patients was 53.8% (95% CI 34-73%) and in the PBSCT patients was 57.6% (95% CI 34-81%) (P = NS). The probability of relapse at 3 years was 42.3% in the ABMT arm compared with 40% in the PBSCT patients (P = NS). Thus, PBSCT patients had a faster engraftment and a shorter stay in hospital than ABMT; the survival outcome and probability of relapse was the same for both groups. 相似文献

The destruction of hematopoiesis and lymphopoiesis by total body irradiation or high dose chemotherapy for the treatment of malignancy can be reversed by the transplantation of allogeneic or autologous hematopoietic stem cells. In primary disorders of bone marrow or immune system, allogeneic stem cells replace deficient cells. Acute leukemias can be cured, with in 50 to 80% disease free survival after 5 to 8 years. The allogeneic graft versus leukemia effect by immunoreactive cells reduces the relapse rate in myeloid and lymphoid malignancies. 40 to 70% of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia remain disease free after more than 5 years. Patients with malignant lymphoma have a 40 to 70% chance of cure with autologous transplantation, which is not increased by allogeneic cells, because of a higher incidence of severe complications. An increasing number of patients without option for cure is treated with the aim of prolonging remission or retarding disease progression, such as in chronic myeloid leukemia, multiple myeloma and certain solid tumors. New studies suggest in breast cancer with axillary lymph node metastases, that adjuvant high dose chemotherapy with autologous stem cell support will significantly improve disease free survival from 30 to over 60% after 3 to 5 years. In congenital metabolic and storage diseases deficient enzymes are substituted by the allogeneic cells. Clinical trials explore the use of stem cell transplantation after myeloablative therapy in autoimmune disorders as well as in gene therapy with transfected hematopoietic stem cells. 相似文献

The aim of the study was to determine the relationship, if any, between abnormalities in urinary cytology and the administration of cyclosporine A in bone marrow transplant recipients. Specific attention was given to the presence of tubular cells with round inclusions (TCRI). Two bone marrow transplant recipient groups were studied: one with allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) (20 patients) who were treated with cyclosporine A, and the other with autologous BMT (12 patients) who did not receive cyclosporine A. Urinary cytology showed TCRI in 41.66% of the patients after autologous BMT and in 80% of the patients after allogeneic BMT. In the group of patients treated with allogeneic BMT, the occurrence of TCRI was associated with a high incidence of glycosuria and was followed by an increase in the blood level of cyclosporine A, an increase in the serum creatinine concentration and a decrease in the creatinine clearance. These results demonstrated that TCRI, although related to, were not found to be exclusively specific to the administration of cyclosporine A. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: This study was carried out to investigate the efficacy and safety of high-dose chemotherapy (HDC) for the treatment of patients with advanced testicular cancer. METHODS: Seven patients were treated with high-dose carboplatin, etoposide, and ifosfamide followed by autologous blood stem cell transplantation. One patient received 1 cycle, 4 patients received 2 cycles, and 2 patients received 3 cycles of HDC. We performed a total of 15 autologous blood stem cell transplantations: 8 with autologous bone marrow; 6 with peripheral blood stem cells; and 1 with peripheral blood stem cells in addition to autologous bone marrow. RESULTS: Four of the 7 patients achieved a pathologic complete response via early use of HDC and additional salvage surgery. All 4 patients are still alive without evidence of disease at 12, 30, 33, and 54 months, respectively. One patient is alive with active disease at 35 months. Two patients refractory to conventional chemotherapy died of progressive disease at 5 and 27 months, respectively. The hematologic recovery after HDC was rapid, and peripheral blood stem cells tended to have shorter hematologic recovery compared with those from autologous bone marrow, although the difference was not significant. Nonhematologic toxicity was usually mild and manageable. CONCLUSION: High-dose chemotherapy, followed by autologous blood stem cell transplantation, may be safe and effective for patients with advanced testicular cancer, particularly when early use of HDC is conducted for chemotherapy-sensitive patients. A further large, long-term, follow-up study will be needed to define the role of HDC. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Mobilized blood stem cells have been used successfully in autologous transplant recipients to reduce the complications of pancytopenia due to dose-intensive chemotherapy. Reports of cytokine-mobilized blood progenitor cells in allogeneic transplant recipients are rare. STUDY DESIGN AND METHODS: This is a pilot trial of six patients. Patients with advanced hematologic malignancy received bone marrow (median total 2.6 x 10(8) mononuclear cells/kg) followed by four daily transfusions of blood (median total 9.5 x 10(8) mononuclear cells/kg) from HLA-matched sibling donors who were mobilized with recombinant human granulocyte-colony-stimulating factor (5 micrograms/kg/day subcutaneously for 5 days). All patients received cyclosporine and prednisone for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. RESULTS: An absolute neutrophil count greater than 500 per mm3 was achieved on Day 12, and platelet transfusion independence was achieved on Day 16. The median day of hospital discharge was Day 23 after transplant. All patients achieved 100-percent donor cell engraftment. Acute > or = Grade III GVHD did not develop in any patients, but all patients developed Grade I (n = 4) or Grade II (n = 2) acute GVHD. Chronic extensive GVHD developed in four of six patients. One patient died of pneumonia 263 days after transplant while undergoing immune-suppressive therapy for chronic GVHD. CONCLUSION: The transfusion of blood stem cells in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplant is well tolerated soon after transplant, but the development of chronic GVHD may limit the general usage of unmanipulated blood stem cells. 相似文献
