- Arm && Interventions
Group Intervention Description Palifermin Palifermin The patients belong to this arm will be given palifermin, keratinocyte growth factor, in addition to the conventional supportive care for oral mucositis. Palifermin will be given at a dose of 60 mcg/kg for 3 days before commencement of the preparative regimen and for 3 days after stem cell infusion
