A Short Review on Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplant in Leukemic Patients

Doyer Mellen and Heere Nyle

To identify potential barriers to reduced-intensity conditioning (RIC) allogeneic stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) we performed a retrospective review of patients referred for transplant consultation at our center.
