Oral Ciprofloxacin Prophylaxis in Patients Undergoing High Dose Therapy and Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
Background: Antibiotic prophylaxis is usually used in allogenic stem cell transplantation, but its use in Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation (ASCT) is controversial. We evaluated the efficacy of ciprofloxacin prophylaxis in ASCT. Materials and Methods: To identify the efficacy of ciprofloxacin on the incidence of neutropenic fever and its complications, 72 patients had been admitted to Talegh...

متن کاملHigh-Dose Therapy and Stem Cell Transplantation.
Results of conventional or high-dose chemotherapy for peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) are unsatisfactory, leaving a potential role for autologous or allogeneic stem cell transplantation. There are a number of retrospective studies and a few prospective studies on autologous transplantation for first-line PTCL treatment. Studies show that autologous transplant is feasible in relapsed and previ...

متن کاملPost-Autologous (ASCT) Stem Cell Transplant Therapy in Multiple Myeloma
Autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) is the standard of care in transplant-eligible multiple myeloma patients and is associated with significant improvement in progression-free survival (PFS), complete remission rates (CR), and overall survival (OS). However, majority of patients eventually relapse, with a median PFS of around 36 months. Relapses are harder to treat and prognosis declines wit...
