摘要: Background Bendamustine is an alkylator with anticipated antimetabolic activity. It has shown activity in malignant lymphoma, multiple myeloma, and breast cancer. Recognized side-effects are relatively mild myelosuppression as the dose-limiting toxicity. The CD4/CD8 ratio may be reduced. To what extent alteration of lymphocytes, especially CD4+ correlates increase opportunistic infections cannot definitively answered.
