AML, acute myeloid leukemia; CDK, cyclin-dependent kinase; CHF, chronic heart failure; CT, chemotherapy; DR, distant recurrence; ET, endocrine therapy; HR, hazard ratio; N0, node-negative disease; N1, 1–3 invaded lymph nodes; OS, overall survival; RS, recurrence score; AEs, adverse events.

1Lifetime horizon was defined as sufficient for the patient cohort to reach 100 years of age. Therefore, the number of years in the model differed depending on the age at model entry and was 57 years for premenopausal women with N0 disease, 39 years for postmenopausal women with N1 disease, and 36 years for post-menopausal women with N0 disease.

2Additional costs due to CT were estimated from OPTISOINS01 data as the difference between the average cost per patient treated with CT and the average cost per patient not treated with CT. We assumed that they included all CT-related costs and associated adverse event costs.
