Abstract
We show that absolute and severe neutropenia after high-dose therapy with melphalan with or without total body irradiation can be abrogated by cells generated ex vivo. This may change the clinical practice of haematopoietic cell transplantation and high-dose chemotherapy because the morbidity and hospitalisation associated with neutropenia could be avoided or reduced.Entities:
