Current Role of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation in Multiple Myeloma

Current Role of Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation in Multiple Myeloma Major progress in the treatment of multiple myeloma has been made in the last several years. However, myeloma remains incurable and patients with high-risk cytogenetics or advanced stage disease have an even worsen survival. Only allogeneic transplantation may have curative potential in some patients. However, the high non-relapse mortality and incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease have raised controversy regarding this procedure. In this review, we will address the role of upfront and delayed allogeneic transplant. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Oncology and Therapy Springer Journals

Abstract

Major progress in the treatment of multiple myeloma has been made in the last several years. However, myeloma remains incurable and patients with high-risk cytogenetics or advanced stage disease have an even worsen survival. Only allogeneic transplantation may have curative potential in some patients. However, the high non-relapse mortality and incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease have raised controversy regarding this procedure. In this review, we will address the role of upfront and delayed allogeneic transplant.
