Dose-dense therapy improves survival in aggressive non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.

abstract：:Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) can be aggressive and intractable in some cases. Patients who relapse after autologous HCT (auto-HCT) have limited treatment options. City of Hope reports our experience in the use of reduced intensity allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HCT) in 24 heavily pretreated patients with...
