ECOG PS, Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status; ISS, international staging system.

FISH analysis was conducted by the central laboratory. The high-risk group consisted of patients with the genetic subtypes t(4;14), t(14;16), or deletion 17p. The standard-risk group consisted of patients without t(4; 14), t(14; 16), and deletion 17p. The unknown risk group consisted of patients with FISH results that failed or were canceled.

Patients were considered refractory to a drug received in previous regimens if any of the following criteria were met: best response to any regimen containing the drug was stable disease or progressive disease; reason for which the drug was stopped was progression in any regimen; and date of relapse or progression was after start date and within 60 days after stop date of the drug in any regimen.
