TBI dose ranged from 800-1440 cGy; 75% received 1200 cGy or 1320 cGy; n = 4 received 800 cGy and n = 1 received 900 cGy. In vivo T-cell depletion: 1156 transplant regimens included in vivo T-cell depletion. Of these, 1146 received ATG (548 rabbit ATG, 284, equine ATG, and information was not available for 314); 10 patients received alemtuzumab.

ATG, anti-thymocyte globulin; RAEB, refractory anemia with excess blast; TBI, total body irradiation.
