Use of this site is subject to you reading and agreeing with the terms set forth in the disclaimer. If this is your first time visiting, we suggest you read the tutorial.
Is there a regimen missing from this list? Would you like to share a different dosage/schedule or an additional reference for a regimen? Have you noticed an error? Do you have an idea that will help the site grow to better meet your needs and the needs of many others? You are invited to contribute to the site.
Unlike the other chemotherapy regimen pages, this one is not disease-specific. Rather, this is a gathering point for all autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) conditioning regimens. Unless otherwise specified, the day before HSCT is day -1, the day of HSCT is day 0, and the day after HSCT is day +1.

Total body irradiation (TBI) with 150 cGy fractions given twice per day (fractions are at least 5 hours apart) x 8 fractions (total dose: 1200 cGy) over 4 days on days -8 to -5, with lung shielding for the final 600 Gy
Note: Table 1 of Stiff et al. 1998 lists the dosage of each fraction as being 120 cGy, in contrast to the body text under "treatment regimen" saying each fraction is 150 cGy. It is believed that the 150 cGy dose is correct since 8 fractions of this results in the correct total dose of 1200 cGy.
