Biol Blood Marrow Transplant 17:1646-52. 2011..2 (confidence interval [CI] 1.1-9.0, P = .03). Pre-ASCT FDG-PET scans predict EFS in patients with relapsed cHL patients treated with modern salvage/ASCT therapy and warrant prospective evaluation...
Impact of mobilization and remobilization strategies on achieving sufficient stem cell yields for autologous transplantationIskra Pusic
Washington University School of Medicine, Siteman Cancer Center, St Louis, Missouri 63110, USA
