The hematologic effects of recombinant human erythropoietin after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT) were studied. Nineteen patients received 150 U/kg/day of C127 mouse-cell-derived recombinant human erythropoietin (rHu EPO) as a daily continuous intravenous infusion until hematocrit exceeded 35%. These data were compared with a treatment-matched historical control group of 43 patients. RHu EPO-treated patients recovered erythropoiesis more rapidly and became independent from erythrocyte transfusions after a median of 17 days, which was 7 days earlier than the control patients.

D002648 Child A person 6 to 12 years of age. An individual 2 to 5 years old is CHILD, PRESCHOOL. Children
D004920 Erythropoiesis The production of red blood cells (ERYTHROCYTES). In humans, erythrocytes are produced by the YOLK SAC in the first trimester; by the liver in the second trimester; by the BONE MARROW in the third trimester and after birth. In normal individuals, the erythrocyte count in the peripheral blood remains relatively constant implying a balance between the rate of erythrocyte production and rate of destruction. Erythropoieses
D004921 Erythropoietin Glycoprotein hormone, secreted chiefly by the KIDNEY in the adult and the LIVER in the FETUS, that acts on erythroid stem cells of the BONE MARROW to stimulate proliferation and differentiation.
