NOTE. The following variables were evaluated in univariable Cox regression models for outcome: sum-value signature, age, sex, platelet count, WBC, percentage of blood blasts, percentage of bone marrow blasts, presence or absence of various chromosomal translocations [ie, inv(16), t(8;21), t(15;17), t(9;11), t(11q23), t(6;9), t(9;22)] or other abnormalities [+8, −3/inv(3q)/t(3;3), −7/del(7q)], and presence or absence of gene mutations (ie, FLT3-ITD, FLT3-TKD, NRAS, KRAS, NPM1, CEBPA, MLL-PTD). Variables for which P < .1 in univariable models (Data Supplement) were included in multivariable analysis for sum-value signature. Only variables for which P < .05 in multivariable models are shown in Table. HRs > 1 or < 1 indicate, respectively, higher or lower risk of event for higher values of continuous variables and for first category listed for categorical variables in OS or EFS models.

Abbreviations: AML, acute myeloid leukemia; EFS, event-free survival; HR, hazard ratio; ITD, internal tandem duplication; OS, overall survival; PTD, partial tandem duplication; t-AML, therapy-related AML; TKD, tyrosine kinase domain.
