BAVC regimen and autologous bone marrow transplantation in patients with
acute myelogenous leukemia in second remission

Department of Biopathology, University La Sapienza, Rome, Italy.
Twenty-one acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients were submitted in
second remission (II CR) to BAVC conditioning regimen followed by unpurged
ABMT. Transplant was done after a median of 2 months from II CR (range, 1
to 13). Median first remission (I CR) duration was 16 months (range, 1-35).
Conditioning regimen was well tolerated, with no major extra-medullary
toxicity. One patient died during aplasia from fungal sepsis. Of the 20
evaluable patients, nine relapsed after a median time of 6 months (range, 2
to 18). Eleven patients are in continuous complete remission (CCR) after a
median follow-up of 40 months (range, 24 to 63). The duration of II CR has
exceeded the duration of I CR in all patients in CCR. Projected probability
of disease-free survival is 52% at 63 months.
