Abstract

In the management of leukemia and malignant solid tumors [if one excepts the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect of an allograft], bone marrow transplantation (BMT) is not therapeutic per se, but is simply a method designed to overcome myelotoxicity after high-dose chemotherapy. The main limitations of this method are graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in allogenic BMT and the contamination of the graft by residual malignant cells in autologous BMT. A common approach, so-called purging, has been proposed to eliminate unwanted cells from the BM before its reinjection—either allogenic normal T cells responsible for GVHD or autologous malignant cells.
