Large granular lymphocytic leukaemia after solid organ and haematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

abstract：:A pilot trial was initiated for chronic myeloid leukaemia patients, which employed imatinib for remission induction, followed by reduced-intensity conditioning and an in vivo T-cell depleted graft. Out of nine patients, six experienced a molecular relapse and one patient had a haematological relapse at a median interv...
