Measure
Treatment (Chemotherapy)
Participants received intensive initial or salvage induction chemotherapy regimens. These regimens would usually be administered in the inpatient setting, however participants received them outpatient. This study did not dictate the choice of induction chemotherapy regimen. The regimen was decided upon by patient and their treating oncologist and clinical care team. The induction chemotherapy regimens administrations spanned 4-7 days.
