The outcomes of bone marrow transplantation (BMT) performed at the Institute of Haematology and Blood Transfusion from April 1988 to December 1994 in 31 patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia are presented. Age of the patients range from 18 to 49 years, median 34 years. Male:female ratio was 1.58:1. The conditioning regimen consisted of Cyclophosphamide and total body irradiation (TBI) or Busulfan and Cyclophosphamide. The results are evaluated as of January 1, 1995. Nineteen patients (61.3%) are alive, 12 patients (38.7%) died. The causes of death are discussed. The median time of follow up all patients is 10.4 months, range 0.3-81.5. The median time of follow up of surviving patients is 21.8 months, range 2.5-81.5. Probability of 2 years survival by Kaplan-Meier analysis is 58 +/- 10%. Of the 24 transplanted in the first chronic phase, 18 patients are alive. Of the 7 transplanted in advanced phase of the disease, 1 patient is alive. Of the 27 patients, who received bone marrow from an HLA identical sibling, 19 are alive. Of the 4 patients who received bone marrow from other donor than an HLA identical sibling, none is alive. Acute GvHD III.-IV. grade developed in 5 patients (16.1%), moderate and severe chronic GvHD developed in 11 patients (31.5%). Cytogenetic relapse was diagnosed in 1 patient, hematological relapse in 2 patients. Karnofsky scores of patients surviving after BMT range from 30% to 100%, median 90%.
