Survival range including standard and high-risk groups;

Survival for patients in complete remission. A variety of approaches have been studied that compare MA-myeloablative to NMA-non myeloablative, T cell depletion of graft, and GVHD prophylaxis. Engraftment rates are high, and GVHD can be attenuated through T cell depletion of the graft or by intensive anti-GVHD prophylaxis, including ATG. GVHD: Graft-vs-host disease; TRM: Treatment related mortality; OS: Overall survival; TBI: Total body irradiation; ATG: Anti-thymocyte globulin; CsA: Cyclosporine A; MTX: Methotrexate; MMF: Mycophenolate mofetil; PTCyclo: Post transplant cyclophosphamide; AML: Acute myeloid leukemia; ALL: Acute lymphoblastic leukemia; Tacro: Tacrolimus.
