CML (chronic myeloid leukemia) includes stable phase, accelerated phase, or blast transformation. ALL/AML (acute lymphocytic leukemia/acute myeloid leukemia) includes patients in first, second, or subsequent remission. MDS (myelodysplastic syndrome) includes patients with RA/RARS (refractory anemia/refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts), RAEB (refractory anemia with excess of blasts), CML (chronic myeloid leukemia), and RAEB-T (refractory anemia with excess of blasts in transformation). NHL indicates non-Hodgkin lymphoma; PNH, paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria; CLL, chronic lymphocytic leukemia; and PBSC, peripheral blood stem cell.
