Prolonged molecular remission after autologous stem cell transplantation in relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia
Haematologica
|May 12, 2004
Abstract:
Six patients with relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) received autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in second (n=5) or fourth (n=1) molecular remission with a molecularly negative graft. After a median follow-up of 33 months from ASCT, 5 patients are alive in molecular remission and one died 27 months after autograft from refractory relapse.

Bone Marrow Sampling and Transplants
Bone marrow transplant is a potential cure for several diseases, including cancer and specific genetic disorders. Notably, this procedure is applicable for patients suffering from aplastic anemia, certain types of leukemia, severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID), Hodgkin's disease, non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, multiple myeloma, thalassemia, sickle-cell disease, and certain cancers.

Stem Cell Therapy for Tissue Regeneration
Stem cell therapy is a method used in regenerative medicine to repair and restore function to damaged tissues and organs. Stem cells have the potential to proliferate and differentiate into various tissue types, making them ideal candidates for tissue regeneration. For example, hematopoietic stem cell transplants are commonly used in blood cancer treatment to replenish damaged bone marrow and restore healthy blood cells.
