Abstract

Therapy for human leukemia is currently limited by toxicity of chemoradiotherapy to normal bone marrow stem cells. This limitation can be circumvented by the prior removal and subsequent reinfusion of autologous bone marrow [1, 2]. In order for successful engraftment to occur, reinfused bone marrow must be pruged of leukemic cells ex vivo while the viability of stem cells remains intact. Monoclonal antibodies have the potential of providing this selective destructive effect.
