title: Challenges for the next decade: allogeneic stem cell transplantation in chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
abstract: Although hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allogeneic SCT (allo-SCT)) is the treatment of choice for many aggressive hematological malignancies, the role of allo-SCT in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is still a matter of debate and can be considered one of the more important challenges for the next decade. In the era of novel drugs and humanized antibodies, the long-term outcome of patients has improved, and a critical reappraisal of autologous and allo-SCT in CLL treatment is warranted.
