T-cell depletion with Campath-1H "in the bag" for matched related allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation is associated with reduced graft-versus-host disease, rapid immune constitution and improved survival.

We studied the outcome of 24 peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) graft recipients, who were T-cell depleted (TCD) with either 20 mg (n = 14) or 10 mg (n = 10) Campath-1H in vitro, in comparison with a retrospective cohort of 23 unmanipulated (UM) PBSC recipients. While the neutrophil engraftment was s...
