Abstract
High-dose chemotherapy and autologous or allogeneic bone marrow transplantation are known to be useful in patients with hematological malignancies. The encouraging results of this approach in the treatment of acute leukemias prompted us to investigate its use in patients with Hodgkin’s lymphoma not being cured by primary conventional chemotherapy.
This work was supported by the Associazione Italiana Ricera sul Cancro (A.I.R.C., 1989).
