Relaxed criteria consist of less stringent specifications of the eligibility criteria, including stage II, III, and IV, creatinine < 2, performance status < 3, no prior malignancies with exceptions, bilirubin < 2, no self-reported health conditions, hemoglobin ≥ 8, WBC ≥ 3, and platelets ≥ 75 000. Stringent criteria consist of stringent specifications of the eligibility criteria, including stage III and IV, creatinine < 1.5, performance status < 2, no prior malignancies, bilirubin < 1.5, no self-reported health conditions, hemoglobin ≥ 9, WBC ≥ 4, and platelets ≥ 150 000.
