In this
article, I would like to propose the correction of the empirical and
inappropriate timing for cyclophosphamide (Cy) administration among the widely
spread clinical haplo-identical bone marrow transplantation followed by
high-dose Cy (haploBMT/ PTCy). Haploidentical bone marrow transplantation (BMT)
with high-dose post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy) is now becoming a
safe, effective and inexpensive treatment for patients with hematologic
malignancies or hemoglobinopathies and for the tolerance induction to
transplants of solid organs [1] from the same donor (2). For the method to
cross the haploidentical barrier in human BMT, the Johns Hopkins protocol
comprising nonmyeloablative pretreatment with fludarabine on days -6 through -
2, Cy on days -6 and -5, total body irradiation (TBI) on day -1
(=preconditioning), and BMT on day 0 followed by Cy 50mg/ kg on days 3 and 4
(=Cy-induced tolerance), and tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil from day 5
(=Post-immunosuppressive treatment) has been used in world-wide [2].
