pubmed:abstractText |
We have recently demonstrated that interleukin 2 (IL-2), when administered in high doses for several days beginning on the day of allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT), markedly diminishes graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) mortality in lethally irradiated mice. An optimal anti-GVHD effect was attained by coadministering T-cell-depleted (TCD) syngeneic marrow. We demonstrate here that the full graft-versus-leukemia effect of allogeneic T lymphocytes is obtained even when GVHD is markedly diminished by the coadministration of IL-2 and TCD syngeneic marrow. This methodology represents an approach to the treatment of leukemia in which the beneficial effects of allogeneic T cells can be exploited while their major deleterious effect, GVHD, is avoided. These results may thus have an impact on the clinical use of BMT for the treatment of hematologic malignancies.
