I had post-BMT Vidaza for 10 months, 5-day cycles subcutaneous injections, intended to help prevent relapse. So far, so good (knock wood). My transplant was at Johns Hopkins 11/30/2010. I was supposed to do 12 months but they thought it might be exacerbating GvHD so stopped at 10. I had no immunosuppressants (had post transplant cytoxan instead).
