a

P-values based on Fisher’s exact test (sex, karyotypes, FLT3/ITD, response); Pearson chi-squared test (race; exact calculation); Wilcoxon rank-sum test (continuous variables); or logrank test (overall and relapse-free survival). Results based on all 274 patients except where indicated.

b

Total of karyotype categories in R132 Wildtype column exceeds 193 because some patients have multiple clonal abnormalities.
