Cell Harvesting in Newly Diagnosed

Hello. Just wondering what the current situation is U.K. wide.

Is this still being done for use in potential auto transplant?

Cell harvesting for autologous transplant used to be offered to CML patients who were in chronic phase at diagnosis. To my knowledge this is now not offered routinely because the efficacy of TKI therapy has been so successful. 

I hope this is helpful, 

Sandy
