Abstract
For several years there has been extensive debate concerning the value of bone marrow transplantation (BMT), allogeneic (allo-BMT) or autologous (A-BMT), in acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) patients in first remission (CR). Before starting a proper randomized phase III trial in order to reach a conclusion on the value of BMT in terms of disease-free survival (DFS), i.e., the time from the first CR until relapse or death in CR, and duration of survival (S), several authors have tried to compare the DFS of the patients who underwent BMT with those who received chemotherapy as post-remission treatment (non-BMT group)
