Nonmalignant late effects, including chronic renal failure (CRF), impair the quality of life of long-term survivors after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. One of the major risk factors is the use of total body irradiation (TBI) in the preparative regimen; TBI is currently fractionated in an attempt to reduce toxicity. We analyzed 241 patients who had TBI-based preparative regimens for allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. TBI was delivered as a single fraction of 7.5 Gy (7.5S group), 12 Gy in 6 fractions (12F group), or 14.4 Gy in 8 fractions (14.4F group). The cumulative incidence of CRF at 2 years was 12%. Statistical analysis revealed that older age (P < .001) and fludarabine administration (P =.016) had a significant effect on the incidence of CRF. Furthermore, single-fraction TBI was also significantly associated with CPF severity, because 7 (6.3%) of 111 patients in the 7.5S group developed severe CRF, as opposed to 1 (0.8%) of 130 patients in the 12F and 14.4F groups combined (P =.044). However, these conclusions should be regarded as preliminary in view of the retrospective and nonrandomized nature of this studv. (c) 2006 American Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation.
