The combination of deoxycoformycin and deoxyadenosine was investigated for its capability to deplete T-cells from bone marrow and spleen cells and for its effect on GVHD in MHC-mismatched transplantation in rats. In vitro incubation with DCF/dADO for 18-20 hours resulted in significant but incomplete T-cell depletion without toxicity towards CFU-M. This corresponded with a lower incidence and a modification of GVHD following transplantation of such treated cells into MHC-incompatible recipient rats. However, GVHD could not be completely prevented by the in vitro treatment of donor cells.
