TEPADINA® is indicated, in combination with other chemotherapy medicinal products: ( Brochure is attached, we could use the second page). Tepadina is used in combination with chemotherapy (medicines to treat cancer) in two ways:

• as a ‘conditioning’ (preparative) treatment before transplantation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (the cells that make blood cells). This type of transplant is used in patients who need to replace their blood-making cells because they have a blood disease, such as a cancer of the blood (including leukemia) or diseases causing low red blood cell counts (including thalassemia or sickle-cell anaemia);

• during the treatment of solid tumors when high-dose chemotherapy is followed by transplantation of Hematopoietic progenitor cells are needed.
