Outcome measure 5-y OS, CIR, RFS, donor vs no donor comparison 1-y and 5-y OS, RR, RM, NRM, GVHD Impact of TBI on MAC, 5-y OS, LFS, NRM OS, DFS, relapse, NRM, aCVHD, cGVHD OS, PFS, RR, NRM, aGVHD and cGVHD 
Survival outcome 5-y OS 48%, 2-y CIR 35%, 5-y CIR 42%, NRM 26% 1-y OS 58%, 5-y OS 34%

CI disease progression 44% at 1  y and 55% at 3  y. 3-y OS for ETP was 29%, with CI disease progression 63% at 3  y. ETP + allo-HSCT in CR1, OS was 47% at 3  y. 
Conclusion Pts >35  y had inferior outcomes, no benefit to autologous HSCT, sibling donors had benefit over no sibling donor (RR 26% vs 50.9%) Relapse is main cause of treatment failure. Disease status at time of transplant is most important risk factor for survival. TBI associated with better survival, especially in CR2. Disease status at allo-HSCT is most important risk factor for survival. TBI associated with better survival (5-y LFS 44% vs 25%, 5-y OS 47% vs 28%, CIR 30% vs 60%), but only for pts <35  y. Outcomes, relapse significantly associated with disease status at allo-HSCT Relapse is main cause of treatment failure. Relapse significantly associated with disease status (MRD+) at allo-HSCT. Allo-HSCT can abrogate the negative prognostic impact of ETP-ALL.
