Data are for patients after acute or chronic leukemia who received 1 or 2 antigen-mismatched sibling or parental transplants from 1985 to 1997, as reported to the IBMTR. TBI indicates total body irradiation; Cy, cyclophosphamide; Bu, busulfan; CsA, cyclosporine; MTX, methotrexate.

*

Early leukemia, first complete remission or first chronic phase; intermediate leukemia, greater than or equal to second complete remission; greater than or equal to second chronic phase or accelerated phase; advanced leukemia, patients never in remission, in any relapse or blast phase.
