Fludarabine and Busulfan (FluBuP Regimen) as Myeloablative Conditioning Regimen for Allogeneic PBSCT in 71 Leukemic Patients (A Unicenteric Study).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Following 3 other centers in USA, Canada and Germany, we are evaluating fludarabine (40 mg/m2 on days −6 to −2) and busulfan (4 mg/kg/day on days −5 to −2) as a new conditioning regimen for allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation in leukemic patients with matched related donors. Seventy one patients were enrolled, 18 with high and 53 with standard risk (18 ALL, 35 AML, 16 CML and 2 MDS; F=29 M=42). The median patient age was 23.7 years(range, 2.4– 46.7). Cyclosporine was used as a prophylactic agent for GVHD (3mg/kg IV till +4, 10 mg/kg oral from day +5). The median follow-up was 269 days (range, 50–459 days). 91.5% and 15.5% developed mucositis and hepatic toxicity respectively which resolved with conservative therapy. There was no cardiac toxicity (except one patient with mild pericardial effusion and another with tachycardia). The median of highest serum creatinin level during hospitalization were 1.6 mg/dl (range, 0.8–3.7; 24.3% with Cr>2) and serum cyclosporine level, at the same time, was 246 ng/ml (range, 9–814). 7% experienced hemorrhagic cystitis (infection was ruled out) and 36.6% experienced moderate to severe headache. 38% and 14.1% of the patients showed grade 1, 2 and grade 3 acute GVHD respectively. Grade 4 acute GVHD was found in one patient. 50% and 6% showed limited and extensive chronic GVHD. 27% of patients became CMV+ (min +17, max +69). The median time for neutrophil and platelet recovery were 10 (min 0, max +26) and 12 (min 0, max +30) days. In day +38, 86.7% of the patients had 90% or more, mononuclear chimerism (with STR-PCR technique; median, 97%; range, 25–100). 5 ALL and 8 AML patients relapsed (18.3% of all patients) and 6 (8.45%) died after relapse. Nonrelapse mortality was 13% (9 patients; acute GVHD grade IV=1, CMV infection and GVHD=2, CMV infection=2, pneumonia=2, infection=2). With a median follow up of 9 months (range, 1.6–15.3 months), the probability of overall survival and disease free survival were 79.68% and 81.26% respectively. It could be beneficial to use fludarabine versus cyclophosphamide in standard conditioning regimen for leukemic patients because of reduced toxicity, low incidence of acute GVHD and facilitated donor engraftment.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
