Abstract:
We describe a patient with chronic granulocytic leukaemia (CGL) who relapsed after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Interferon alpha 2b (IFN alpha 2b) induced and maintained a complete remission. IFN alpha 2b led to full restoration of donor bone marrow. This case provides evidence to support a trial of IFN alpha in patients with relapsing CGL after BMT.
