Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to identify clinical models or approaches that can be exploited to improve the curability of hematopoietic malignancies. The chapter begins by identifying tumor and host factors that the clinician must consider when identifying a specific clinical approach for a specific patient that ultimately will determine the curability of that particular tumor. The remaining sections in the chapter focus on strategies to approach hematopoietic malignancies, particularly those that may be either palliated or cured as a result of their inherent responsiveness to at least high-dose chemotherapy. These approaches include the goals, limitations, and timing of dose-intensive therapy, which are utilized to maximize tumor response and which may be required to provide curative therapy. Subsequently, there is a discussion of strategies to decrease the incidence of relapse. Such strategies include both ex vivo and in vivo mechanisms to eliminate minimal residual disease (e.g., autograft manipulation by purging or positive selection of normal stem cells; graft-vs-tumor effects, tumor vaccines, cytokine modulation). The authors hope that this chapter will suggest that early intensive therapy for patients with potentially curable malignancies should be a new paradigm for future clinical trials.
