Autologous stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia in first remissionC A Linker
University of California, San Francisco, USA
Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 6:50-7. 2000..Preliminary efficacy analysis is very encouraging, with outcomes that appear superior to those of conventional chemotherapy...
The role of autologous transplantation for acute myeloid leukemia in first and second remissionCharles Linker
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco Cancer Center, 400 Parnassus Avenue, Room A 502, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Best Pract Res Clin Haematol 20:77-84. 2007....
The cancer and leukemia group B transplant committeeCharles Linker
University of California at San Francisco, San Francisco, California and Wake Forest, Winston Salem, North Carolina, USA
Clin Cancer Res 12:3635s-7s. 2006..The cooperative group setting allows us to advance the transplant field by showing which approaches are successful outside of single institutions and are therefore feasible on a generalized basis...
Auto-SCT for AML in second remission: CALGB study 9620C A Linker
Department of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Bone Marrow Transplant 44:353-9. 2009..We conclude that this two-step approach to autologous transplantation produces good CD34+ mobilization and that this approach has cured some patients. Results in patients with APL are especially promising...
Recombinant human thrombopoietin augments mobilization of peripheral blood progenitor cells for autologous transplantationCharles Linker
Department of Hematology Oncology, University of California San Francisco, 400 Parnassus Avenue, Room A502, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 9:405-13. 2003..We conclude that rhTPO can safely enhance mobilization of PBPC, reduce the number of leukapheresis, and allow more patients to meet minimal cell yield requirements to receive high-dose chemotherapy with PBPC transplantation...
Intensified and shortened cyclical chemotherapy for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemiaCharles Linker
Bone Marrow Transplant Program, Medical Center, University of California San Francisco, 400 Parnassus Avenue, Rm A502, San Francisco, CA 94143 0324, USA
J Clin Oncol 20:2464-71. 2002..To assess the efficacy and toxicity of a new treatment program of intensified and shortened cyclical chemotherapy (protocol 8707) in adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)...
Autologous stem cell transplantation for advanced acute myeloid leukemiaC A Linker
University of California, San Francisco, CA, USA
Bone Marrow Transplant 29:297-301. 2002..We conclude that this two-step approach to autologous transplantation produces excellent stem cell yields, allows a high percentage of patients to receive the intended therapy, and provides effective treatment...
Autologous stem cell transplantation for acute myeloid leukemiaC A Linker
Division of Hematology/Oncology, University of California, San Francisco, USA
Bone Marrow Transplant 31:731-8. 2003..For patients with AML in second remission, ABMT/ASCT offers a substantial salvage rate, and is particularly effective for patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia...
Pretransplantation consolidation chemotherapy decreases leukemia relapse after autologous blood and bone marrow transplants for acute myelogenous leukemia in first remissionMartin S Tallman
Northwestern University Medical School, Chicago, Illinois, USA
Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 12:204-16. 2006..Outcomes with standard-dose and high-dose cytarabine were similar. Based on our findings, we recommend that patients with AML in first remission receive consolidation before undergoing autotransplantation...

University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, California 94143 0324, USA
Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 12:316-24. 2006....

Department of Medicine, Division of Hematology/Oncology, University of California-San Francisco, 400 Parnassus Avenue, San Francisco, CA 94143, USA
Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 9:643-8. 2003..0 versus 9.8 units; P =.01). Our findings suggest that CD34+ cell doses >10 x 10(6)/kg CD34+ result in faster engraftment and fewer red blood cell and platelet transfusions...
