Totals may vary because of missing data.

ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia; AML, acute myeloid leukemia; CMV, cytomegalovirus; DSA, donor-specific antibody; HCT-CI, hematopoietic cell transplantation–specific comorbidity index; KPS, Karnofsky performance scale.

Ten patients had a follow-up time of <2 years and were disease-free and alive at time of last follow-up, and hence were excluded from the long-term survivor and the short-term disease-free survivor groups.
