N indicates number of cases; NK, natural killer cell; PTLD, posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disease; TCL, T-cell lymphoma; NA, not available; DLBCL, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma; HD, Hodgkin disease; PTCL, peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

*

Peak level was the highest level detectable, either at diagnosis or during treatment.

Trough level was the lowest level detected during the clinical course.
