Nonmyeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is the most effective treatment for selected hematological malignancies. Its curative potential is largely mediated by an immune-mediated destruction of malignant cells by donor lymphocytes termed graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect. However, because of its toxicity, conventional allogeneic HSCT is restricted to younger and fitter patient...
متن کاملNonmyeloablative hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: transplantation for the 21st century.
Conventional approaches to allogeneic stem cell transplantation have used toxic high-dose conditioning therapy to achieve allogeneic engraftment and control of underlying disease. For engraftment purposes, preclinical studies and clinical observations have shown that conditioning regimens can be markedly reduced in intensity, resulting in reduced treatment toxicities. Preclinical canine studies...
متن کاملPediatric Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation
The introduction and evolution of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) could be traced back to 1950s, to the studies on interactions among irradiation, covering spleen and bone marrow from it and injection of bone marrow cells. Today, HSCT is considered a well-established, effective and promising means of therapy for various malignant and non-malignant medical conditions, both in chil...
متن کاملPharmacokinetic Variability of Mycophenolic Acid in Pediatric and Adult Patients With Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation.
The aim of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetic variations of mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active metabolite of mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), in both pediatric and adult patients following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Twenty pediatric patients with a median age of 3 years (range 0.2-12 years) and 13 adult patients with a median age of 54 years (range 18-63 years) wer...
متن کاملAcute renal failure after nonmyeloablative hematopoietic cell transplantation.
Acute renal failure (ARF) is a common life-threatening complication after myeloablative allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT). Nonmyeloablative HCT aims to eradicate the malignancy with graft-versus-tumor effect, rather than with high doses of chemoradiotherapy. It may be anticipated that a lower risk of ARF exists in nonmyeloablative HCT as a result of the milder preconditioning ...
