Popis: | Fifty-three patients with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia in first remission were treated with cyclophosphamide, total body irradiation and marrow transplantation. Twenty-seven patients received 1000 rad in one exposure and 12 are living in remission 6–29 months later. Twenty-six received 200 rad on each of 6 days and 18 are living in remission after 4–27 months. Kaplan-Meier analysis shows a survival advantage for the fractionated regimen (p = 0.05). |
