Abstract
High-dose etoposide has been added to total body irradiation, cyclophosphamide, carmustine, or busulfan in preparatory regimens for allogeneic or autologous bone marrow transplantation for patients with leukemia, Hodgkin's disease, lymphoma, or multiple myeloma. The treatment results are encouraging, indicating that etoposide may be a valuable addition to the previously established regimens. Etoposide should be incorporated into collaborative, prospective trials to define its ultimate role in bone marrow transplantation.
