Abstract excerpt
Pretreatment with haemopoietic cytokines prior to marrow harvest may result in improved quality of bone marrow harvested for autologous bone marrow transplantation (BMT). Such improvements may reduce the risk for graft failure and decrease time to engraftment. Patients undergoing autologous BMT received recombinant human G-CSF (rhG-CSF) immediately prior to marrow harvest. rhG-CSF was administered as daily...
