What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Number of Participants With Any Adverse Event (AE)
An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship (association) with this treatment. Therefore, an AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not it was considered to be related to the medicinal product. Laboratory abnormalities were recorded as AEs only if they were associated with clinical sequelae and/or required an intervention.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST dosimetric dose (DD) (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With Any Treatment-related Adverse Event (TRAE)
All noxious and unintended responses to a study treatment related to any dose were considered as TRAEs. A response to a study treatment indicates that a causal relationship between a study drug and an adverse event was at least a reasonable possibility, i.e., the relationship cannot be ruled out.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With Any Grade 3 or Grade 4 Adverse Event
Adverse events were graded using the Common Toxicity Criteria from the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program, Division of Cancer Therapy, National Cancer Institute. Grades: 0 = No adverse event or within normal limits; 1 = Mild adverse event; 2 = Moderate adverse event; 3 = Severe and undesirable adverse event; 4 = Life-threatening or disabling adverse event; 5 = Death related to adverse event.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With Any Treatment-related Grade 3 or Grade 4 Adverse Event
All of the treatment-related grade 3 (severe and undesirable) and grade 4 (life-threatening or disabling) adverse events experienced by the participants were recorded.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With Any Serious Adverse Event (SAE)
An SAE was defined as any event occurring at any dose that results in any of the following outcomes: death, a life threatening adverse drug experience (at immediate risk of death from the experience as it occurred), inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Important medical events that may not result in death, be life-threatening, or require hospitalization may be considered to be a serious adverse drug experience when based upon appropriate medical judgment.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With Any Treatment-related SAE
All of the treatment-related SAEs experienced by the participants were recorded.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With the Indicated Grade 3 and Grade 4 AEs
AEs were graded using the Common Toxicity Criteria from the Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program, Division of Cancer Therapy, National Cancer Institute. Grades: 0 = No AE or within normal limits; 1 = Mild AE; 2 = Moderate AE; 3 = Severe and undesirable AE; 4 = Life-threatening or disabling AE; 5 = Death related to AE. mm, millimeters; mm^3, millimeters cubed. Grade 3 and Grade 4 AEs are reported to focus on the most severe AEs.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants With the Indicated Treatment-related AEs Experienced by at Least 10% of Participants in the Combined Regimen
All noxious and unintended responses to a study treatment related to any dose were considered as TRAEs. A response to a study treatment indicates that a causal relationship between a study drug and an adverse event was at least a reasonable possibility, i.e., the relationship cannot be ruled out.
Measured: First day of fludarabine cycle 1 to day prior to TST and iodine I 131 TST DD (Week -16 to Week 1); Day of TST and iodine I 131 TST DD to database release (Week 1 to Week 520)
Number of Participants Who Were Negative for Human Anti-murine Antibodies (HAMA) at Baseline (Study Entry) But Positive or Negative at Weeks 12 and 25 and at Months 12, 18, and 24
The administration of murine antibodies may form HAMA. A HAMA assay was performed using the ImmunoSTRIP HAMA IgG enzyme-linked immune absorbent assay by a central laboratory (Covance Classic Laboratory Services, Indianapolis, IN). Fludarabine, a known immunosuppressant, might decrease HAMA production in addition to reducing bone marrow involvement. To be "positive," a participant had to have a positive HAMA assessment at any follow-up visit (Weeks 12 and 25; Months 12, 18, and 24).
Measured: Day 1 to Day 730 (24 Months) after receiving the dosimetric dose
Time to HAMA Positivity From the First TST/I 131 TST Dosimetric Dose for the Participants Achieving HAMA Positivity
Kaplan-Meier estimates of the time to HAMA positivity (days from the first fludarabine dose) was determined for participants who converted to HAMA positivity.
Measured: Day 1 to Day 730 (24 Months) after receiving the dosimetric dose
Number of Participants With Elevated Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) Levels at Baseline (Study Entry) and Weeks 25, 52, 78, 104, 130, 156, 182, 208, 234, 260, 286, 312, 364, 416, 468, and 512
The number of participants with elevated TSH levels is reported. An elevated TSH level indicates that an insufficient amount of the thyroid hormone is being produced. Insufficient thyroid hormone production is known as hypothyroidism. The normal range of TSH is between 0.2 and 6.1 milliunits per liter (mU/L).
Measured: Baseline (Week -16) and Weeks 25, 52, 78, 104, 130, 156, 182, 208, 234, 260, 286, 312, 364, 416, 468, and 512

Number of Participants With Any Infection at Week 16 Post-Fludarabine Treatment and Week 13 Post-TST Treatment Detected by Laboratory Culture of Participant Sample or Investigator Report
An infection is the colonization of a host organism by a parasite species. Infecting parasites seek to use the host's resources to reproduce, often resulting in disease. Colloquially, infections are usually considered to be caused by microscopic organisms or microparasites like viruses, bacteria, and viroids, although larger organisms such as macroparasites and fungi can also infect.
Measured: Week 16 Post-Fludarabine Treatment (Week -16 to Week 0); Week 13 Post-TST Treatment (Week 1 to Week 13)
Number of the Indicated Type of Infection Reported by Investigator Based on Laboratory Testing at Week 16 Post-Fludarabine (Fl) Treatment and Week 13 Post-TST Treatment
An infection is the colonization of a host organism by a parasite species. Infecting parasites seek to use the host's resources to reproduce, often resulting in disease. Colloquially, infections are usually considered to be caused by microscopic organisms or microparasites like viruses, bacteria, and viroids, although larger organisms such as macroparasites and fungi can also infect.
Measured: Week 16 Post-Fludarabine Treatment (Week -16 to Week 0); Week 13 Post-TST Treatment (Week 1 to Week 13)

An AE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered a pharmaceutical product and does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship (association) with this treatment. Therefore, an AE was any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not it was considered to be related to the medicinal product. Laboratory abnormalities were recorded as AEs only if they were associated with clinical sequelae and/or required an intervention.

Number of Participants Who Were Negative for Human Anti-murine Antibodies (HAMA) at Baseline (Study Entry) But Positive or Negative at Weeks 12 and 25 and at Months 12, 18, and 24
Time frame: Day 1 to Day 730 (24 Months) after receiving the dosimetric dose
The administration of murine antibodies may form HAMA. A HAMA assay was performed using the ImmunoSTRIP HAMA IgG enzyme-linked immune absorbent assay by a central laboratory (Covance Classic Laboratory Services, Indianapolis, IN). Fludarabine, a known immunosuppressant, might decrease HAMA production in addition to reducing bone marrow involvement. To be "positive," a participant had to have a positive HAMA assessment at any follow-up visit (Weeks 12 and 25; Months 12, 18, and 24).
