Ten lessons from transplantation in CML

No.Lesson
Stem cells can circulate in the peripheral blood. 
Peripheral blood and bone marrow stem cells will engraft after myeloablative therapy. 
Autografting with Ph-positive cells can result in regeneration with Ph-negative cells. 
Allografting can cure CML. 
T-cell depletion is associated with an increased risk of relapse. 
Infusion of lymphocytes can restore remission. 
Elucidation of mechanisms of GVL effect 
Development and clinical value of monitoring for minimal residual disease 
EBMT (Gratwohl) score can be applied to all diseases. 
10 Relapse can occur very late after transplantation and life-long vigilance is required.
