The Impact of Infused Autograft Absolute Numbers of Immune Effector Cells on Survival Post-Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation

Cells, 2022
Autologous stem cell transplantation treatment has been viewed as a therapeutic modality to enable the infusion of higher doses of chemotherapy to eradicate tumor cells. Nevertheless, recent reports have shown that, in addition to stem cells, infusion of

Autologous Stem Cell Transplantations

Annals of Medicine, 1996
High-dose treatments with autologous stem cell support have increasingly been used to improve the treatment results of a variety of haematological and nonhaematological malignancies. High-dose treatments cause severe bone marrow injury, which can effectively be rescued with infusion of a sufficient number of stem cells. Stem cells can be collected from

Autologous transplantation for Philadelphia chromosome-positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia achieves outcomes similar to allogeneic transplantation: results of CALGB Study 10001 (Alliance)

Haematologica, 2014
Allogeneic stem cell transplantation is the standard approach to Philadelphia chromosome positive acute lymphoblastic leukemia. We hypothesized that imatinib plus sequential chemotherapy will result in significant leukemia cell cytoreduction in patients ...

Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis secondary to autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation: A case report

Respiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2023
Pleuroparenchymal fibroelastosis (PPFE) is a rare form of interstitial pneumonitis. Although most cases of PPFE are idiopathic, some cases of PPFE occur secondary to stem cell transplantation.

Autologous Graft-versus-Tumor Effect: Reality or Fiction?

Advances in Hematology, 2016
In contrast to allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, the current dogma is not an evidence of graft-versus-tumor effect in autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation; thus, it is assumed that autologous hematopoietic stem cell ...
