Thirty adults with hematologic malignancies at high-risk for relapse were treated on a phase I-II study of high-dose thiotepa, busulfan (BU) and cyclophosphamide (CY) as the preparative regimen for allogeneic marrow transplantation. Cyclosporine and methylprednisolone or anti-CD5 ricin A chain immunoconjugate were used as graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis. Filgrastim was given from day 1 to enhance engraftment. Median follow-up time is 16 months (range 9-29 months). Grades III-IV regimen-related toxicity occurred in 5 (26%) of 19 patients treated with thiotepa 250 mg/m2 x 3, BU 1 mg/kg x 12 and CY 60 mg/kg x 2 and this was considered the maximal tolerated dose-schedule. Stomatitis and hepatoxicity were dose-limiting. All patients engrafted and had complete donor chimerism. The actuarial rate of acute graft-versus-host disease was 71% (95% CI 62-80%). The relapse rate at 1 year was 38% (95% CI 25-50%) and the actuarial survival at 1 year was 30% (95% CI 22-38%). The combination of thiotepa, BU and CY is tolerable as a preparative regimen for allogeneic marrow transplantation.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007938 Leukemia A progressive, malignant disease of the blood-forming organs, characterized by distorted proliferation and development of leukocytes and their precursors in the blood and bone marrow. Leukemias were originally termed acute or chronic based on life expectancy but now are classified according to cellular maturity. Acute leukemias consist of predominately immature cells; chronic leukemias are composed of more mature cells. (From The Merck Manual, 2006) Leucocythaemia,Leucocythemia,Leucocythaemias,Leucocythemias,Leukemias

D009190 Myelodysplastic Syndromes Clonal hematopoietic stem cell disorders characterized by dysplasia in one or more hematopoietic cell lineages. They predominantly affect patients over 60, are considered preleukemic conditions, and have high probability of transformation into ACUTE MYELOID LEUKEMIA.

D002066 Busulfan An alkylating agent having a selective immunosuppressive effect on BONE MARROW. It has been used in the palliative treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (MYELOID LEUKEMIA, CHRONIC), but although symptomatic relief is provided, no permanent remission is brought about. According to the Fourth Annual Report on Carcinogens (NTP 85-002, 1985), busulfan is listed as a known carcinogen.

D003131 Combined Modality Therapy The treatment of a disease or condition by several different means simultaneously or sequentially. Chemoimmunotherapy, RADIOIMMUNOTHERAPY, chemoradiotherapy, cryochemotherapy, and SALVAGE THERAPY are seen most frequently, but their combinations with each other and surgery are also used.

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.
