Hey Ken!
It was fun (and educational) trying to understand the article.
Marlene, I saw that article you posted. Also very interesting. I know that sometimes, for MDS as opposed to AA, the docs want to do reduced intensity and use peripheral blood in order to get a little GVHD for the graft versus leukemia effect.
I think that post-transplant HiCY is just what Karen (mausmish) had at Hopkins.
And I do think you are right that it's much more complicated, as the docs try to get just the right mix of drugs.
Take care!
Greg
