Evaluated by glomerular filtration rate (GFR), mL/min per 1·73m2· Abbreviated MDRD study equation is: GFR (mL/min per 1·73m2) = 186 × (SCr)−1·154 × (Age)−0·203 × (0·742 if female) × (1·210 if African-American)· SCr is serum creatinine concentration at transplant in mg/dL.

Definition of renal function group:
  1. Normal/Mild – GFR score≥60
  2. Moderate - GFR score (30-59)
  3. Severe/Renal Failure – GFR score <30
2

Asian (30), American Indian (12), Islander (3).

3

IgD (16), IgE (1), IgM (4).

4

High risk genomic abnormalities consist of t(4;14), t(14;16), del17p, hypodiploidy and any abnormality in chromosome 1· All other cytogenetic lesions are considered non high-risk.

5

Including No metaphases (9), Cytogenetics not tested (157) and Unknown (89).

6

Including Bortezomib +Doxil+Dexamethasone (2).
