We evaluated long-term toxicities and outcomes in 96 patients with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia treated with a single bone marrow allograft regimen. Conditioning was cytosine arabinoside, cyclophosphamide (120 mg/kg) and single fraction total body irradiation (500 cGy). Median follow-up was 12.8 years (0.4-19.9 years). Graft failure occurred in one patient, nonfatal veno-occlusive disease in 13 patients (14%). Overall incidences of acute (a) and chronic (c) graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) were 77 and 63%. The 100-day and 1-year transplant-related mortality (TRM) were 1 and 9.2%, respectively, with no change through 5 years. Five- and 10-year event-free survival rates were 56 and 49%, overall survival (OS) rates 72 and 70%, respectively. Forty patients have relapsed: 8 cytogenetic (20%), 10 hematologic (25%) and 22 molecular (55%). Most have been salvaged with donor-leukocyte infusion, second transplants and/or imatinib therapy. Survival was worse for patients transplanted >2 years from diagnosis (10-year OS 56 vs 78%, P=0.01), for patients over 50 years old (10-year OS 44 vs 75%, P=0.05) and for patients without cGVHD (10-year OS 53 vs 86%, P<0.001). This regimen resulted in successful engraftment, low risk of TRM and long-term survival. In an era when imatinib is first line therapy, this regimen offers a potentially low-toxicity, highly successful alternative in the event of poor imatinib response.
