The sensitivity of myeloid progenitor cells from normal subjects (N-CFU-GM) and from leukemic patients in complete remission (LR-CFU-GM) to 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4-HC) were compared to the sensitivity of leukemic progenitor cells (L-CFU) to this drug. The results were expressed as the dose of 4-HC needed to kill 90% (TD 90) of the progenitor cells. The mean TD 90 were respectively for N-CFU-GM : 59 (+/- 11 S.E.M.) nM ml-1 and for L-CFU 79 (+/- 6 S.E.M.) nM ml-1. Thus, L-CFU were equally sensitive to 4-HC as N-CFU-GM. Moreover, the mean TD 90 for LR-CFU-GM was 87 (+/- 5 S.E.M.) nM ml-1. Thus, the sensitivity of N-CFU-GM and LR-CFU-GM did not differ significantly from that of L-CFU. These results are not encouraging for the use of 4-HC in vitro to eliminate the residual leukemic cells from autologous bone marrow of AML patients in complete remission. The sensitivity of L-CFU was modified neither by previous cytoreductive therapy (different from cyclophosphamide) nor by the time elapsed since diagnosis of AML.
