Association between busulfan exposure and outcome in children receiving intravenous busulfan before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

Intravenous (IV) busulfan (Bu) combined with therapeutic drug monitoring-guided dosing is associated with better event-free survival (EFS), lower transplant-related mortality. But optimal target steady-state concentration (Css) of Bu in children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the relation between Css of Bu and clinical outcomes in children receiving Bu before HSCT.
