However, RT-PCR analysis showed persistence of the p210 bcrabl translocation. Accordingly, the level of residual malignant cells should be between 10(-2) and 10(-6). Autologous stem cell transplantation was performed, but relapse occurred 11 months after blast crisis. This case supports the effectiveness of a carboplatin-ARA-C protocol in BC-CML in order to induce cytogenetic remissions.}, number={5}, journal={Haematologica}, author={JA Perez-Simon and MD Caballero and JM Hernandez-Rivas and C Chillon and M Garcia-Isidoro and JF San Miguel}, year={1997}, month={Sep.}, pages={604-605} }
