*

Two patients received HLA-mismatched related grafts that included a 5- of 8-HLA–mismatched relative and a 9- of 10-HLA–matched sibling graft.

Two patients received bone marrow plus CB from their siblings.

Of the 108 patients who received busulfan/cyclophosphamide or busulfan/fludarabine, AUC data were available in 89 patients and were used for classification of MAC (n = 64) and RIC (n = 25). Two additional patients who received busulfan/fludarabine could not be classified because of lack of information and were excluded from analyses comparing MAC and RIC.

§

Four patients who received TCD grafts received no additional immune suppression for GVHD prophylaxis.
