A myeloablative allograft after rejection of two consecutive nonmyeloablative transplants from two different HLA identical siblings

Bone Marrow Transplant. 2004 Mar;33(6):659-60. doi: 10.1038/sj.bmt.1704356.

Abstract

A 55-year-old female with standard risk AML in second CR received an allogenic transplant from an HLA-matched sibling, using a nonmyeloablative conditioning regimen (NMST). On day +139, she rejected her graft with autologous reconstitution. She received a second NMST from a different HLA-matched sibling with an identical conditioning regimen and immunosuppression. On day +110, she rejected the second graft, with autologous reconstitution with blasts. She received a third allograft from the first sibling with a myeloablative busulfan-based conditioning regimen. She is now day +270, in CR, with full donor chimerism.
