1, page 9). 3 Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation • The possibility of an antileukemic effect of the donor immune system (graft vs leukemia or GVL), together with supportive therapy and prophylaxis against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), results in an improved outcome for certain subtypes of AML (see discussion above) • A GVL effect is less effective in transplantation between identical twins or after extensive T-cell depletion of the donor stem cells • Adverse late sequelae after transplantation include chronic GVHD, growth retardation, sterility, and the risk of secondary malignancy • The frequency of leukemia-free survival after transplantation is 50–70% In the absence of an HLA matched, family donor, matched or mismatched unrelated bone marrow or cord blood donors may be used; in some instances, related haploidentical donor transplantation may be considered.
