Allogeneic Peripheral Blood Progenitor Cell Transplantation in Solid Tumors

  • Chapter
Advances in Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

Part of the book series: Cancer Treatment and Research ((CTAR,volume 101))

Abstract

High-dose chemotherapy and autologous transplantation is used as treatment for selected solid tumors, such as breast and ovarian cancer. This approach produces high complete response rates but relapse of the malignancies remains the major problem. This is generally due to incomplete eradication of the disease by high-dose chemotherapy. In addition, autologous transplantation may be contaminated by malignant cells that may contribute to systemic relapse. Allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPC) or bone marrow transplantation has been associated with an immune graft-vs-malignancy effect against leukemias and lymphomas. However, it is uncertain whether a similar graft-vs-malignancy effect will occur against solid tumors. Preliminary trials of allogeneic transplantation have been performed in patients with various solid tumors with the goal of inducing graft-vs-malignancy effects. In this chapter, we will review the rationale and our recent experience of allogeneic transplantation for metastatic breast cancer.
