Five years after the diagnosis of Ph chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) a 31-year-old patient developed malignant nephrosclerosis with renal failure. He then underwent an allogeneic unrelated BMT in first chronic phase CML. The preparative regimen consisted of fractionated total body irradiation (TBI) and cyclophosphamide (CY). We studied the pharmacokinetics of cyclophosphamide on hemodialysis and compared clinical parameters including time to engraftment and toxicity with parameters of a patient with normal renal function who also received an unrelated marrow as treatment for CML in first chronic phase. Our results suggest that TBI/CY is a suitable conditioning regimen for allogeneic transplantation in patients with hematological malignancy and renal failure on hemodialysis.
