PG - 900-7 AB - Allogeneic bone marrow transplantation is being used to treat hematologic malignancies after induction. The efficacy of this procedure is due to both myeloablative conditioning and graft versus leukemia (GvL). However, the disadvantages of allogenic transplantation include graft versus host disease (GvH), the susceptibility of patients to opportunistic infections, and relapse from the original tumor. Since 1995 is used conditioning regimen which are deeply immunosuppressive and non myeloablative. The therapeutic toxicity related to myeloablation and drug side effects should be reduced. Lately, allogeneic transplantation has been developed to treat solid tumors, with the expectation that graft versus tumor (GvT), like GvL, will have a significant anti-tumoral effect. According to the literature, the feasibility of this procedure seems demonstrated. The fist available results in renal carcinomas are encouraging. However, the efficacy of this procedure remains uncertain for other potential indications. After presenting the published results, we will discussed the actual difficulties and the future potential developments.
