Does leukaemia bone marrow transplant outside recur still have save
First, improving the pretreatment of bone marrow transplantation, strengthening the intensive treatment of leukemia patients before bone marrow transplantation, choosing the best time of bone marrow transplantation, inducing graft leukemia effect and other means may help to reduce the recurrence of leukemia after bone marrow transplantation. In the treatment of relapse of leukemia after bone marrow transplantation, the first step is to induce remission by chemotherapy.
Second, a second bone marrow transplantation can be performed. In some cases, a second bone marrow transplantation can be performed directly without induction of remission. For the patients with poor general condition who can not tolerate the second bone marrow transplantation, only supportive treatment and symptomatic treatment can be done. The re induction remission rate of leukemia relapse after bone marrow transplantation was 50% in acute lymphoblastic leukemia, but lower in acute myeloid leukemia.
Third, the long-term disease-free survival rate is only about 10% in patients undergoing the second bone marrow transplantation. For the treatment of relapsed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia after bone marrow transplantation, interferon injection combined with peripheral blood lymphocyte infusion can make some patients "cured" (malignant clone disappeared). If the effect of this method is not good, hydroxyurea and other drugs can be used to control the disease, but the most active and effective treatment is still the second bone marrow transplantation.
