The Role of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Amyloidosis [PDF]

ONCOLOGY, 2021
Autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) has been an essential part of the treatment armamentarium in light chain (AL) amyloidosis for several decades. Patients who achieve a complete hematologic response following ASCT have a long overall survival. However, only 1 randomized controlled trial compared ASCT with the standard of care used at the time,

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 STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION FOR AGGRESSIVE LYMPHOMAS

Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2012
The role of high-dose therapy (HDT) followed by autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in the treatment armamentarium of aggressive B- and T-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) is still a matter of debate. In the pre-Rituximab era, the PARMA study demonstrated the superiority of HDT/ASCT over conventional salvage chemotherapy in chemosensitive ...

A Review of Autologous Stem Cell Transplantation in Lymphoma [PDF]

Current Hematologic Malignancy Reports, 2017
Chemotherapy remains the first-line therapy for aggressive lymphomas. However, 20-30% of patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) and 15% with Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) recur after initial therapy. We want to explore the role of high-dose chemotherapy (HDT) and autologous stem cell transplant (ASCT) for these patients.There is some utility of upfront ...
