Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This was a multi-centre retrospective analysis of the Australia and New Zealand experience with reduced intensity conditioning using Fludarabine and Melphalan. Haematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients (HSCT) were selected from the Australian Bone Marrow Transplant Registry. All eligible fludarabine melphalan (i.e. reduced intensity) conditioned HSCTs performed in the participating centres between January 1998 to December 2008 were to be included for evaluation.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 286997 0
Overall survival at 3 years post HSCT was analysed using Kaplan-Meier survival curves and multivariate Cox regression analysis.
Timepoint [1] 286997 0
This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
Primary outcome [2] 286998 0
Disease free survival post HSCT.
1, 2 and 3 years post HSCT.

This was measured retrospectively using database information from the individual participating units.
Timepoint [2] 286998 0
1, 2 and 3 years post HSCT

This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
Secondary outcome [1] 297169 0
Time to platelet and neutrophils engraftment
Timepoint [1] 297169 0
Day of neutrophil engraftment was defined as the first of 3 consecutive days of a blood neutrophil count of 0.5 x 109/L or above.

Day of platelet engraftment was defined as the first day when the blood platelet count was 20 x 109/L or above and there had been no platelet transfusions in the previous 7 days.
Secondary outcome [2] 297170 0
Transplant related mortality

Deaths attributable to stem cell transplant and conditioning (ie not relapse or progressive disease).
Timepoint [2] 297170 0
The patients will be coded as surviving (or not) to 100 days and 1 year post transplantation.

This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
Secondary outcome [3] 297171 0
Acute graft versus host disease: Incidence within 100 days of transplantation.

This refers to graft versus host disease of the liver, skin or gastrointestinal tract occurring within 100 days of HSCT.
Timepoint [3] 297171 0
This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
Secondary outcome [4] 297172 0
Chronic graft versus host disease.

This refers to graft versus host disease occurring great than 100 days from the date of transplantation
Timepoint [4] 297172 0
This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
Secondary outcome [5] 297173 0
Disease Relapse.
Timepoint [5] 297173 0
This information is determined as part as required reporting information at the Australasian Bone Marrow Transplants recipient registry. Where ambiguity exists, information was confirmed with direct medical record review. Statistical analysis was performed at the close out date of the study 31 December 2010.
