    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Es wird über 9 Melanompatienten im klinischen Stadium III berichtet, die mit DDP und IF, 3 davon zusätzlich mit VD behandelt wurden. In keinem Fall konnte eine komplette Remission erreicht werden, die mittlere Überlebenszeit betrug 4,2 Monate. Unter Berücksichtigung der Nebenwirkungen bietet diese Kombinationschemotherapie keinen Vorteil gegenüber weniger toxischer Maßnahmen.
    Notes: Summary We report our results on 9 patients with disseminated malignant melanoma, treated with combination of DDP and IF, 3 in addition with VD. In none of them a complete remission was obtained, the median survival was 4.2 months. These disappointing results, in addition to the rather toxic side effects from the chemotherapy, do not present any benefit over less toxic regimens.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Rahmen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Knochenmarktransplantation München wurden von August 1975 bis Juni 1980 insgesamt 17 Patienten mit rezidivierter, akuter Leukämie mit Knochenmark von HLA-identischen Geschwistern transplantiert. Die antileukämische und immunsuppressive Vorbehandlung bestand aus BCNU, Cytosin-Arabinosid, Cyclophosphamid in hoher Dosierung und Ganzkörperbestrahlung mit etwa 9 Gy Körpermitteldosis an einer60Co-Doppelbestrahlungsanlage. Die Prophylaxe einer Graft-versus-Host Krankheit (GvHK) wurde in allen Fällen mit Methotrexat durchgeführt, bei neun Patienten wurde als zusätzliche GvHK-Prophylaxe das Knochenmark mit Anti-T-Zell-Globulin inkubiert, von dem die Antikörper gegen hämopoetische Stammzellen absorbiert waren. Zwei von fünf auswertbaren Patienten, die unbehandeltes Knochenmark erhalten hatten, entwickelten chronische GvHK, während kein Patient nach ATCG-Inkubation des Knochenmarkes eindeutige GvH-Krankheit bekam. Sechs Patienten leben in Vollremission zwischen einem und 33 Monaten nach Knochenmarktransplantation (KMT). Fünf Patienten starben mit Rezidiven zwischen 3 1/2 und 24 Monaten nach KMT, drei Patienten mit interstitieller Pneumonie innerhalb von 3 Monaten nach KMT und drei Patienten innerhalb von 4 Wochen ohne ausreichende Knochenmarkfunktion. Vier von 13 Patienten, die vor mehr als 6 Monaten transplantiert wurden, überleben zur Zeit 11, 14, 19 und 33 Monate in Vollremission. Unsere Ergebnisse bestätigen, daß selbst in fortgeschrittenen Stadien akuter Leukämie durch KMT noch langfristige Remissionen erreichbar sind.
    Notes: Summary Seventeen patients with relapsed, acute leukemia were grafted with bone marrow from HLA-identical siblings by the ‘Munich Cooperative Group for Bone Marrow Transplantation’ during the period from August 1975 to June 1980. The antileukemic and immunosuppressive conditioning treatment consisted of high doses of Bischlorethyl nitrosourea, Cytosine-Arabinoside and Cyclophosphamide, as well as, total body irradiation of about 9 Gy (midline body dose) from dual60Cobalt sources. Methotrexate was given to all patients for prophylaxis of graft-versus-host disease (GvHD). Nine patients received marrow that was treated with anti-T-cell globulin (ATCG) “in vitro”. — Crossreacting antibodies against hemopoietic stem cells were removed by absorption. Two of 5 evaluable patients given untreated marrow developed chronic GvHD, while patients given ATCG-treated marrow did not show unequivocal symptoms of GvHD. Six patients are in complete remission one to 33 months following bone marrow transplantation (b.m.t.) Five patients died with relapses of leukemia between 3 1/2 and 24 months following b.m.t., 3 patients died with interstitial pneumonia within 3 months of b.m.t. and 3 patients died with insufficient graft function within 4 weeks of b.m.t. Four of thirteen patients that were grafted more than 6 months ago are presently alive and in continuous complete remission at 11, 14, 29 and 33 months following b.m.t. Our results confirm that longterm remissions can be obtained with b.m.t. in patients with acute leukemia in advanced stage.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Rahmen der Arbeitsgemeinschaft Knochenmarktransplantation — München (AG-KMT) wurden vom März 1975 bis Mai 1980 insgesamt 12 Patienten wegen schwerer, aplastischer Anämie mit Knochenmarktransplantation (KMT) behandelt. Sechs Patienten überleben derzeit mit normalem Blutbild und Knochenmark zwischen 10 Monaten und mehr als 5 Jahren nach KMT von HLA-identischen Geschwistern, eine Patientin steht noch in ambulanter Behandlung wegen lokalisierter, chronischer Graft-versus-Host Krankheit (GvHK), fünf Patienten sind klinisch gesund. Sechs Patienten starben, ein Patient starb am Tag vor KMT mit Hirnblutung, drei Patienten 32, 40 und 55 Tage nach KMT an den Folgen der Transplantatabstoßung, einer an schwerer GvHK 85 Tage nach KMT und einer 87 Tage nach KMT vermutlich an interstitieller Pneumonie nach Hirnblutung. Drei von 6 Patienten, die nur mit Cyclophosphamid (CY) vorbehandelt waren, starben infolge Abstoßung des Transplantates. Zwei erwachsene Patienten, die mit CY und „total lymphoid irradiation“ vorbehandelt waren, und drei Kinder, die nach KMT unbestrahlte Leukocytenkonzentrate von Knochenmarkspender erhalten hatten, stießen das Transplantat nicht ab. Die Ergebnisse der AG-KMT sind vergleichbar denen großer, spezialisierter Zentren für KMT und zeigen die Möglichkeiten einer Heilung schwerer aplastischer Anämien durch KMT von HLA-identischen Geschwistern. Die Erfolge sind besser bei frühzeitiger KMT.
    Notes: Summary From March 1975 until May 1980 twelve patients with severe aplastic anemia were grafted with bone marrow from HLA-identical siblings by the Munich Cooperative Group for Bone Marrow Transplantation. Six patients are alive between 10 months and more than 5 years after grafting with normal blood values and marrow. One patient is treated as an out patient for chronic localized graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), five patients are well and without treatment. Six patients have died, one patient with a cerebral hemorrhage the day before transplantation, three patients following rejection of grafts 32, 40 and 55 days after grafting, one patient with severe GvHD 85 days after grafting and one patient, probably with interstitial pneumonia, following cerebral hemorrhage. Three of 6 patients who were conditioned with Cyclophosphamide (CY) only died following rejection of the graft. Two adults who were conditioned with CY and “total lymphoid irradiation” and three children, who were given unirradiated leukocyte concentrates from the marrow donor after grafting, did not reject their grafts. The results of the Munich-Cooperative Group for Bone Marrow Transplantation are comparable to those of large, specialized centers for bone marrow transplantation, they indicate possibilities of cure of severe aplastic anemia by marrow grafts from HLA-identical siblings. They confirm that better results are obtained with earlier transplantation in the course of the disease.

    Notes: Summary Eleven adults have been transplanted for various reasons between July 1979 and July 1982: 2 with aplastic anemia (AA), 1 with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH), 8 with acute leukemia (AL). Four patients suffered from acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) and four from acute non-lymphocytic leukemia (ANLL). Two of them were transplanted in relapse, 1 in a partial remission, and 5 in complete remission. All patients were in their late stage of disease. The PNH-patient had an identical twin, 8 patients had an HLA- and MLC compatible sib, 1 an unrelated donor, and 1 was transplanted from his father. Four patients are alive, 2 more than 3 years: 1 with AA and 1 with ALL who was transplanted in relapse. Six patients died of infectious complications (4 of interstitial pneumonia, 1 of a candidasepsis, 1 of acute toxoplasmosis). Patients living more than 3 weeks had a take. Acute graft-versus-host (GvH) disease did not present a major problem. All patients received methotrexate for GvH-prophylaxis, in three instances the marrow was additionally pre-incubated with anti-T-cell globulin.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Im Hinblick auf eine Senkung der Frühtodesrate durch Infektionen wurde in einer vergleichenden Studie der Wert einer selektiven Darmdekontamination (SDD) bei der zytostatischen Behandlung von Patienten mit akuter Leukämie untersucht. Es wurden drei Gruppen gebildet: 1) SDD (Neomycin, Colistin, Nystatin) bei einfacher Umkehrisolation auf der Normalstation; 2) keine SDD, aber einfache Umkehrisolation auf der Normalstation; 3) strikte Isolation, gefilterte Luft, sterilisierte Nahrung plus SDD. Es fanden sich graduell zwischen den drei Gruppen signifikant weniger Infektionen mit Gramnegativen Keimen: Isolierstation plus SDD versus Normalstation plus SDD versus Normalstation ohne SDD. Die Frühtodesrate durch Infektionen war in der Gruppe mit SDD auf der Normalstation signifikant geringer als in der Gruppe ohne SDD, umgekehrt die Remissionsrate nach zytostatischer Behandlung signifikant höher. Die Dekontamination wurde gut vertragen.
    Notes: Summary A comparative study of infectious morbidity and mortality in neutropenic patients with acute leukemia receiving chemotherapy was undertaken to test the effects of a suppression of endogenous and ambient microorganisms. Patients were allocated to receive [1] oral antibiotics (neomycin, colistin, and nystatin) in conventional ward isolation; [2] no antimicrobial suppression but conventional ward isolation; [3] strict isolation, filtered air, sterilized food and oral antibiotics. Significantly fewer infections with Gram-negative bacilli were seen in patients with strict isolation plus endogenous microbial suppression versus patients receiving selective gut decontamination versus patients without nonabsorbable antibiotics in simple reverse isolation. The death rate from infection was significantly reduced in patients who received antibiotics for gut flora suppression in conventional ward isolation compared with the corresponding control group. In addition, a significant improvement of leukemic remission rate was seen in this group. The protocol for decontamination was well tolerated.

    Notes: Summary Second episodes of varicella after a definite primary exposure to chicken-pox are well known in immunosuppressed children. We report an outbreak in adult cancer patients. This observation suggests that there is also a higher risk of varicella infection in immunosuppressed adults. As there is a trend for a pronounced severity of chicken-pox in patients receiving anticancer drugs or suffering from immunosuppressive diseases, the prophylactic use of varicella zoster immune globulin in adult patients has to be discussed, especially as positive experiences with children were recently gained. Following manifestation, therapy with systemic aciclovir seems to be effective.

    Notes: Summary In a patient with acute lymphocytic leukaemia (pre-T ALL) and another patient with leukaemic generalization of B-cell lymphoma Auer bodies were found in a few immature cells. The diagnosis in both cases was based on clinical grounds, morphology, cytochemistry, and immunological marker analysis of the blasts. Auer bodies are known to be a marker of high significance for acute non-lymphocytic leukaemias. Therefore the findings described suggest mixed leukaemias with either T-cell or B-cell predominance. It provides further evidence for the existence of a common progenitor of myeloid and lymphoid cells.

    Notes: Summary In a multicenter analysis, the effect of low-dose cytosine arabinoside (Ara-C) (10 mg/m2 q 12 h subcutaneously for a minimum of 15 days) has been assessed in 13 patients with acute leukemia (10 myeloid -AML-, 3 lymphocytic -ALL-) and 7 patients with dysmyelopoietic syndromes (DMPS), conditions classified as refractory anemia with an excess of blasts (RAEB). Seven patients suffering from acute leukemia and 1 with DMPS in blastic transformation displayed a leukocytosis of more than 10×109/1. Three out of 7 DMPS, 1 out of 10 AML achieved a complete remission, 1 out of 3 ALL-patients reached a partial remission twice. Seven patients showed a blast clearing in the bone marrow and peripheral blood, in another 7 instances examination of the bone marrow was not performed after therapy because of early death. The majority of patients were in their late phase of disease and refractory to conventional chemotherapy. Only 5 patients had no pretreatment at first presentation before low-dose Ara-C was initiated. At least for the DMPS-group, this therapeutic approach seems to be of some benefit.

    Notes: Summary Auer-rod positive acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) blasts from a 33-year-old patient were cultured in diffusion chambers (DC) in order to test their differentiation potential. The cells were labeled with anti-human granulocyte antiserum known to be negative for eosinophils, and evaluated using the unlabeled peroxidase-antiperoxidase (PAP) method. Parallel to a decline in the number of leukemic blasts there was an increase of up to 86% in the number of granulocytic cells belonging to the eosinophilic series. Auer-rod bodies were found in the eosinophilic cells even after 20 days in culture. Staining with anti-granulocyte antiserum failed to demonstrate positive cells at any time during DC culture. Based on the negative reaction with the anti-granulocytic antibodies already at an early stage of development evidence is provided for the existence of a progenitor cell exclusively committed to the eosinophilic pathway.
