pubmed-article:7543068 | pubmed:abstractText | Circulating progenitor cells (CPC), when infused in large numbers, rapidly repopulate the marrow after myeloablation with high-dose therapy. In multiple myeloma (MM), as in other disorders, different chemotherapy regimens, including single-as well as multiple-agent chemotherapy, with or without hemopoietic growth factors, have been proposed to mobilize these progenitor cells into the blood. Here we report our experience with a drug combination called VCAD and compare the results to those obtained by adding rhG-CSF to the same combination. | lld:pubmed |
