Jaime,
At City of Hope there is a standard practice of a chemo drug infused for 5 days before the transplant. The one you wrote looks to be used for Multiple Myeloma.
I googled my treatment and it was conditioning and called Fludarabine. It is reading my body for the 1 dose of heavy hitting Melphalan.
My treatment was based on the 5q deletion and the TP53 mutation.
Today after 2 years, i take Acyclovir. Lenalidomide is mentioned as a possible treatment. Looks like the treatments is based on your statistics. What will lead to cure.
