Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| (1) Frequencies of acute GVHD greater than grade 3, or extensive chronic GVHD with 13 days after the last (5th) vaccination. (2) Frequencies of non-hematological toxicity greater than grade 3 by NCI-CTC criteria. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
