Abstract |
Six patients with relapsed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) received autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in second (n=5) or fourth (n=1) molecular remission with a molecularly negative graft. After a median follow-up of 33 months from ASCT, 5 patients are alive in molecular remission and one died 27 months after autograft from refractory relapse.
