NCI-WG indicates National Cancer Institute-Working Group; CR, complete remission; nPR, nodular partial remission; OR, overall response; PFS, progression-free survival; OS, overall survival; BM, bone marrow; IGHV, immunoglobulin heavy chain variable gene; LN, lymph node; and nd, not done.
Age, Rai stage, karyotype, β-2 microglobulin and number of prior treatment analysis performed in a hierarchical manner with each group compared to lower-ranked risk groups only (eg, Rai stage III compared to Rai stage 0 to II only). In karyotype analysis, diploid/deletion 13q also compared to all other cytogenetic abnormalities.
Bulky disease, by physical examination lymph nodes greater than 5 cm in maximum diameter.
P < .05,
P < .001 (2-tailed Fisher exact test).
