A patient with refractory relapsed Hodgkin's disease underwent an autologous bone marrow transplant in July 1987 and achieved remission of Hodgkin's disease. He had complete hematological recovery but developed pancytopenia 3 years post bone marrow transplantation with morphological evidence of myelodysplasia. High-dose cyclophosphamide, 200 mg/kg, chemotherapy followed by an allogeneic bone marrow transplant from a HLA-matched sibling was performed in April 1991 with complete hematological recovery. Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation was thus used successfully to treat a potential complication of autologous bone marrow transplantation.

D003520 Cyclophosphamide Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the LIVER to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of LYMPHOMA and LEUKEMIA. Its side effect, ALOPECIA, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.
