OR, odds ratio; 95% CI, 95% confidence interval; ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia; AML, acute myeloid leukemia; HLA, human leukocyte antigen; BM, bone marrow; PBSC, peripheral blood stem cell; GVHD, graft-vs.-host disease; ATG, antithymocyte globulin.
The other category included aplastic anemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, and lymphoma.
Myeloablative conditioning regimens include TBI (total body irradiation) + Cy (cyclophosphamide), Bu (busulfan)+ Cy, and Bu + Flu (fludarabine). Intensified conditioning regimens include TBI + Cy + etoposide, and Flu + cytarabine + TBI + Cy.
Non-ATG based GVHD prophylaxis include cyclosporine A (CsA), methotrexate (MTX), and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). ATG based GVHD prophylaxis include CsA + MTX + MMF + ATG.
