ATG/Cyclo Acceptable Response?

Yesterday, Eric's doctor said that a response is defined as:

Hemoglobin > 10
Platelets > 100,000
ANC > 1000

And they wouldn't do anything more, maybe because he is transfusion free also?

So he can live forever like that? I was under the impression his values would have to be in the normal range at least.
