  • Title: Graft-versus-leukemia effect after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation for chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
    Author: Rondón G, Giralt S, Huh Y, Khouri I, Andersson B, Andreeff M, Champlin R.
    Journal: Bone Marrow Transplant; 1996 Sep; 18(3):669-72. PubMed ID: 8879640.
    Abstract:
    We report the case of a patient with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with persistent lymphocytosis and lymphadenopathy after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT). After receiving a donor lymphocyte infusion on day 87 he achieved complete remission upon development of chronic graft-versus-host disease, suggesting that a graft-versus-leukemia effect is operative in this malignancy.
