Bone marrow transplantation for leukemia and multi-state models

Description

137 patients with acute myelocytic leukemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) were given oral busulfan (Bu) 4 mg/kg on each of 4 days and intravenous cyclophosphamide (Cy) 60 mg/kg on each of 2 days (BuCy2) followed by allogeneic bone marrow transplantation from an HLA-identical or one antigen disparate sibling.
