Data are presented as number (%). *Number (%) among patients with non-hematologic malignancy (n = 89). Disease conditions classified as cure, complete remission, partial remission, or stable disease were considered controlled, while those classified as progressive or newly-diagnosed diseases were considered uncontrolled. In patients with non-hematologic malignancies from two different origins, the disease status was defined as uncontrolled if either one was uncontrolled. Number (%) among patients with hematologic malignancy (n = 28). §Nine patients with solid cancers from two different origins, 4 patients with both solid cancer and hematologic malignancy, and 1 patient with hematologic malignancy and solid cancers from two different origins (triple malignancies).
