TBI 12 Gy + Cy was used in 2105 cases while TBI 12 Gy + Flu was administered to 150 patients in first or second complete remission. In a multivariate model adjusted for other prognostic factors, TBI/Cy conditioning was associated with a reduced risk of relapse (HR = 0.69, p = 0.049) and increased risk of grade 2-4 acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD, HR = 1.57, p = 0.03) without significant effect on other transplantation outcomes. In a matched-pair analysis the use of TBI/Cy as compared to TBI/Flu was associated with a significantly reduced rate of relapse (18% vs. 30% at 2 years, p = 0.015) without significant effect on non-relapse mortality, GVHD and survival. We conclude that the use of myeloablative TBI/Cy as conditioning prior to allo-HCT for adult patients with ALL in complete remission is associated with lower risk of relapse rate compared to TBI/Flu and therefore should probably be considered a preferable regimen.",

We conclude that the use of myeloablative TBI/Cy as conditioning prior to allo-HCT for adult patients with ALL in complete remission is associated with lower risk of relapse rate compared to TBI/Flu and therefore should probably be considered a preferable regimen.
