Reducing transplant-related mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:A progressively growing number of peripheral blood stem cell transplants (PBSCTs) are being performed in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) since they are ever more frequently being offered as up-front therapy. Furthermore, there are considerable concerns regarding the appropr...
