AML indicates acute myelogenous leukemia; Rel, relapse; MOF, multi-organ failure; ALL, acute lymphoblastic leukemia; CR2, second remission; VOD, veno-occlusive disease; CR1, first remission; PIF, primary induction failure; CML, chronic myelogenous leukemia; BC, blastic crisis; and CP2, second chronic phase.
