SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: GVHD grading weekly during first 100 days; Annual examinations for nine year study period

Population: For the acute GVHD analysis, only 48 patients' data were available.

Effects of Rituximab as measured by percentage of participants with Acute and Chronic Graft Versus Host Disease (GVHD) incidences after allogeneic transplantation. GVHD occurring anytime after day 90 post transplant was considered chronic GVHD; otherwise it was considered acute GVHD. Acute GVHD status defined as GVHD with maximum grade ≥2. Clinical grading of Acute GVHD (Thomas et al., New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), 229:895, 1975): Grade 1 to 4.
