In this study, we retrospectively evaluated the efficacy and safety of total body irradiation (TBI) and granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF)-combined high-dose cytarabine as a conditioning regimen for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in patients with advanced myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). We evaluated 22 patients with advanced MDS, including refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB; n=10), RAEB in transformation (n=2), acute myelogenous leukemia transformed from MDS (n=6) and chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (n=4). The conditioning regimen consisted of 12 Gy of TBI and high-dose cytarabine (3 g/m(2)) every 12 h for 4 days, and the cytarabine was combined with continuous administration of G-CSF. The stem cell sources were bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cells from human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical siblings (n=12) and bone marrow from HLA serologically matched unrelated donors (n=10). Three patients experienced disease relapse, two of whom died of disease progression. Of 22 patients, 16 are currently alive and disease-free. The 5-year estimated overall survival, disease-free survival, relapse and non-relapse mortality rates are 76.7, 72.2, 16.6 and 14.1%, respectively. These results suggest that G-CSF-combined high-dose cytarabine could be a promising component of the conditioning regimen of allogeneic HSCT for advanced MDS, providing a low incidence of both relapse and treatment-related mortality.
