The patients first underwent marrow aspiration and storage for subsequent autologous bone marrow transplantation (AB MT). Three patients remain alive in unmaintained complete remission (CR) at I X, 17, and 15 months after transplant. In the other three patients, reasons for faiJure included relapse in two patients after 7 and g months, and death after 6 months due to pulmonary infection (pneumonia). These results demonstrate that some patients with MOPP, ABVD and other salvage chemotherapy (SC)-resistant Hodgkin's disease can obtain prolonged complete remission following intensive chemotherapy and autologous marrow transplantation CP - IRAN IN - LG - eng PB - MJIRI PG - 9 PT - Original Research YR - 1994
