Abstract
Traceability of patients who are candidates for Hematopoietic cell transplant (HCT) is crucial to ensure HCT program quality. Continuous knowledge of both a detailed registry from a HCT program and final exclusion causes can contribute to promoting a real-life vision and optimizing patient and donor selection. We analyzed epidemiological data reported in a 4 year-monocentric prospective registry, which included all patients presented as candidates for autologous (Auto) and/or allogeneic (Allo) HCT. A total of 543 patients were considered for HCT: 252 (42.4%) for Allo and 291 (57.6%) for Auto. A total of 98 (38.9%) patients were excluded from AlloHCT due to basal disease progression more commonly (18.2%). Seventy-six (30.2%) patients had an HLA identical sibling, whereas 147 (58.3%) patients had only Haplo. UD research was performed in 106 (42%) cases, significantly more often in myeloid than lymphoid malignancies (57% vs 28.7%, p < 0.001) but 61.3% were finally canceled, due to donor or disease causes in 72.4%. With respect to Auto candidates, a total of 60 (20.6%) patients were finally excluded; progression was the most common cause (12%). Currently, Haplo is the most frequent donor type. The high cancellation rate of UD research should be revised to optimize further donor algorithms.

Abstract
In order to analyze the outcome of patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) who relapse after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (SCT), we investigated data from 107 patients reported to the Spanish Registry, GETH. In all, 93 (87%) patients were treated after relapse; 36 out of 49 that failed to achieve a response received a second relapse-treatment, and seven a third one. At the last follow-up, the number of patients in molecular or cytogenetic remission was 29 and 13, respectively. Overall survival and progression-free survival after relapse were 53.6% (95% CI: 42.9--64.2) and 52% (95% CI: 41-63) at 5 years, respectively. In multivariate analysis, survival was significantly related to CML phase at relapse (cytogenetic or chronic phase vs advanced phases) and time from transplant to relapse (<1 vs >or=1 year). Patients with no adverse factors had a better survival compared with patients with one or two adverse features (65 vs 35 vs 0%, respectively). We conclude that a significant proportion of CML patients that relapse after transplantation can regain complete and long-lasting remissions with one or more salvage therapies. Disease stage at relapse and time from transplant to relapse should be taken into account when comparing results of different salvage treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE To analyze the results of unrelated bone marrow transplantation (UDBMT) as treatment for chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in Spain. DESIGN AND METHODS Eighty-seven consecutive UDBMT performed in 9 centers between October 1989 and February 1998 were evaluated. This represents more than 95% of UDBMT for CML performed in adult transplant centers in Spain during this period. The patients' median age was 31.5 years (range, 12-49). The median interval from CML diagnosis to UDBMT was 30 months (range, 3-160). Seventy-nine percent of transplants were performed during the first chronic phase (1CP). RESULTS Actuarial probability of survival and disease-free survival at 4 years for the whole series was 24% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 14%-34%) and 20% (CI: 10%-30%), respectively. The cumulative incidence of relapse and transplant-related mortality (TRM) was 7% (CI: 4%-10%) and 71% (CI: 60%-82%), respectively. The main causes of death were graft failure (n=7), infection (n=23), and graft-versus-host disease (GvHD) (n=25). The actuarial probability of acute GvHD grade II-IV and grade III-IV was 56% (CI:46%-66%) and 36% (CI: 26%-36%), respectively. The cumulative incidence of extensive chronic GvHD was 18% (CI: 9%-27%). Univariate analyses showed that the pre-transplant factor with the highest influence on survival was disease status at transplant (30% in 1CP vs. 0% in advanced phases; p=0.0001). Other pre-transplant factors influencing survival among patients in 1CP were: patient's age (older than 30 years 11% vs. 48%), interval diagnosis-transplantation (longer than 2 years 17% vs. 55%), donor type (HLA, B, DRB1 identical 32% vs. 25%), CMV serologic status (donor and recipient negative 63% vs. 24%), year of transplantation (before 1995 19% vs. 40%), and conditioning regimen (cyclophosphamide plus total body radiation 40% vs. 16%). The main risk factors had a cumulative effect on survival. Thus, probability of survival ranged from 66% (CI: 39%-93%) in patients in 1CP, under 40 years of age, transplanted from an HLA, A, B, DRB1 identical donor during the first two years after diagnosis, to 0% in those with three or more risk factors. INTERPRETATION AND CONCLUSIONS This experience shows that UDBMT used to have a high TRM that has progressively decreased along the years. At the present time, the results are encouraging, particularly when UDBMT is performed under favorable conditions.

Abstract
Between April 1996 and May 1998, 20 consecutive patients with Ph chromosome-positive CML in first chronic phase without an HLA-identical sibling received the mini-ICE regimen shortly after diagnosis to mobilize progenitor cells into the peripheral blood (PBPCs). The sex distribution was 12 males and eight females and the median (range) age 48.5 (22-62) years. The time interval between diagnosis and mobilization was a median (range) of 2 (0-5) months. Leukaphereses were initiated during recovery from chemotherapy-induced aplasia. A median number of 3 (1-7) aphereses per patient were performed to collect >/=2.0 x 106 CD34+cells/kg. Cytogenetic analysis was performed on the aphereses products of 18 patients. Complete cytogenetic Ph chromosome negativity was observed in four patients, nine had a partial negativity, three a minimal negativity and two no negative cells. Southern blot for bcr-abl was negative in the remaining two patients but the polymerase chain reaction analysis was positive. Following reinfusion, severe neutropenia was present for a median of 8.5 (3-19) days and severe thrombocytopenia lasted a median of 8 (3-18) days. Ten patients did not develop febrile neutropenia with four of them being treated on an outpatient basis. Treatment-related mortality was not observed. In conclusion, our experience demonstrates the feasibility of mobilizing PBPCs shortly after the diagnosis of CML with a safe regimen. Of note, mini-ICE allowed the collection of apheresis products with at least a major component of Ph-negative cells in almost 75% of the patients.

Abstract
Based on previous experiences in animals and humans, low doses of CD8+ lymphocytes infused together with the marrow graft seem to enhance engraftment after allogeneic T cell-depleted marrow transplantation. From April 1994 to February 1997, 12 patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia in first chronic phase receiving a bone marrow transplant (BMT) from an HLA-identical sibling were included in a pilot study of T cell subset depletion. Total depletion of CD4+ cells of the marrow graft and partial depletion of CD8+ cells was performed by immunomagnetic separation. In order to improve the engraftment rate, we infused a low fixed number of CD8+ lymphocytes (0.25 x 10(6)/kg). All the patients were at high risk of developing acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), with a recipient age of >30 years, and/or donor sensitized by previous pregnancies or transfusions. All of them received cyclosporin A and methotrexate post-BMT. No graft failure was observed. The grade III-IV GVHD rate was 16.6%, and the actuarial survival at 3 years is 81.8%. Immunological recovery showed persistent CD8+ HLA-DR+ lymphocytosis 8 months after transplant. Relapses were not observed. This experience shows the importance of CD8+ cells to ensure correct engraftment, decreasing the GVHD rate.

Abstract
Seventeen patients with Philadelphia (Ph) chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) were treated with the ICE regimen plus G-CSF with the aim of mobilizing and collecting Ph-negative peripheral stem cells (PSC) in the setting of an autotransplant program. Fifteen patients had CML in first chronic phase (CP), and two in accelerated phase (AP). Three patients had been previously treated with interferon alpha 2a (IFN). Twelve patients underwent leukaphereses and a mean of 4.7 x 10(8)/kg mononuclear cells were obtained. Four CP patients did not show a significant mobilization peak of CD34+ cells and leukapheresis was not performed; finally, one patient died before apheresis could be performed. Six of the 12 who underwent leukaphereses obtained more than 1.0 x 10(6)/kg CD34+ cells. Eight of the 12 mobilized patients (67%) obtained a major cytogenetic response, including two complete and six partial; in the remaining four patients minimal or absent cytogenetic responses were observed. A higher rate of Ph purging was obtained in patients mobilized early or showing residual Ph-negative cells before mobilization, even if they were in AP. Infectious complications were frequent with a 38% rate of bacteremia recorded and one case of pulmonary aspergillosis resulting in a toxicity similar to that occurring in acute myeloid leukemia-induction chemotherapy. The ICE regimen can promote 'in vivo' purging of the Ph+ cells in 67% of CML mobilized patients (8/12). Failure of mobilization occurs in 65% of patients (11/17), mainly because of poor CD34+ cell yield.
