Low risk: CR1, CR2; high risk: refractory, progressive, more than 1st PR.

CR1 indicates 1st complete remission; CR2, 2nd complete remission; 1st PR, first partial response; SD, stable disease; HD, Hodgkin disease; CLL, chronic lymphoid leukemia; MM, multiple myeloma; MCL, mantle cell lymphoma; and OCLPDs, other chronic lymphoproliferative disorders, including Waldenstrom (n = 1/1), T-prolymphocytic leukemia (n = 1), low-grade transformed to high-grade HNL (n = 5/1), Richter (n = 0/2).
