All data are presented as no. (%), unless otherwise indicated. For the categories listed herein, there were no missing values. Percentages may not total 100 due to rounding.

BEAM, carmustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan; IQR, interquartile range; SD, standard deviation; TBI, total body irradiation.

*

Other conditioning regimens (with numbers of patients treated in parentheses) included carmustine-thiotepa (1), bendamustine-cytarabine-etoposide-melphalan (1), carmustine-etoposide-cyclophosphamide (7), cyclophosphamide-carmustine-etoposide (1), gemcitabine-busulfan-melphalan (1), mitoxantrone-cyclophosphamide-carmustine (1), rituximab-ibritumomab-carmustine-etoposide-cytarabine-melphalan (1), rituximab-bendamustine-melphalan (2), and thiotepa-carmustine (1).

Near complete response for myeloma was defined as serum and urine M-protein detectable by immunoelectrophoresis, but not by electrophoresis and <5% plasma cells in bone marrow.

Very good partial response does not include lymphoma patients.
