Abstract |
Three patients with leukemia were transplanted with peripheral blood stem cells mobilized by intensification or maintenance chemotherapy alone. They maintained persistent reconstituted hematopoiesis for at least 9 years. The experience provides evidence that long-term marrow repopulating cells can be mobilized into the blood to an adequate repopulating extent by chemotherapy alone.
